Separate company and development teams. I'm sure the two can coexist just fine and ESO has no role in delaying TESVI

Tell me you wouldn't drop ESO in a hot minute if you're singleplayer dream came true and you had tons of mods to apply. It would directly compete with the online game. And knowing the developer, you'd still start in a prison.

Huh? No thank. This can be that, and just much more.

Amazes me why people come to a fan forum if they want a game to die... Obviously nothing better out

Zenimax is not Bethesda. Bethesda said they have plans to do TES6 in the future, but they don’t have the technology yet to do what they want to do with it. It’s going to be a good while, but when they make it, it will be good.

Be patient padawan.

And I don't believe that 1 bit. Todd repeats what Pete Hines tells him. Zenimax owns Bethesda --- don't they? So, how are they not the same? Zenimax doesn't want one of its subsidiaries competing with its online MMO. Thus, you get statements like above.

"We have rad ideas. But, you know, the tech hasn't caught up to our ideas" Meanwhile, cars that drive themselves are being sold today. Elon Musk's company has successfully developed re-usable rocket boosters. And companies like Ubisoft and CD Projekt Red ( a smaller studio) run circles around Bethesda's graphics department.

Heck, they may already have it and can't release it. You don't know and neither do I. What amazing tech could they possibly be waiting on? Wearable tech? VR? What?

If ZOS owned Bethesda, it would be THEIR name on each IP, not Bethesda's...

Zenimax media own Bethesda Softworks and Bethesda game studios and Zenimax Online Studios.

Yeah, let's unpack this a bit for clarity.

Zenimax is a holding company. They've own, among other things, Bethesda Softworks.

Bethesda Softworks is a publisher. They publish games for ZOS, Arkane, BGS, ID, and Machine Games, among others. If someone is talking about a game being published by Bethesda, then it's Bethesda Softworks.

Bethesda Games Studios are the developers who make the single player Elder Scrolls games. So, Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind, ect. They've also made two (and only two) single player Fallout games. (3 and 4). Dig far enough back, and there's some other interesting stuff in their back catalog, like a licensed Terminator FPS, and some sports titles.

Zenimax Online (ZOS) are the developers who made Elder Scrolls Online. They're not the same Zenimax that owns Bethesda Softworks, nor do they own Skyrim. They're another developer working for Bethesda Softworks, just like Bethesda Game Studio is.
