Glad that we have silenced the "Eso is preventing es6 from being released" crowd

I personally can't wait to read the in game chats of people who have paid for ESO and yet will tell us repeatedly that this game will die when TeS VI hits, gunna be awesome reading the same high level wit!

Bethesda's fanbase seems to be made up of two types: those who love ESO more than Fallout and those who love Fallout more than ESO, with a few in between who enjoys both games.

There is no mistaking which has the larger audience, and if ESO was impacted by losing nearly 1/3 of its player base when Fallout 4 was released, it's going to hit much harder when TES VI is released.

ESO will lose at least 50% of its player base when it's released, and the game will definitely feel the impact. It may not shut down, but there's no mistaking revenue for the game will tank faster than a Dragonknight.

Hard to say how this will impact ESO, but unless they find a way to tie the two franchises together, I see ESO being destroyed by TES VI.

Skyrim is still played by more Bethesda fans than all other Bethesda games combined.

Once players are "done" with Elsweyr, they'll come back, provided ESO hasn't lost too much revenue during the release.

TES VI will not destroy ESO. Population will dip. Of course it will.

ES VI will be a province of Tamriel, maybe two. ESO is lots of Tamriel. They are two separate type of games.

And, and this is just a crazy notion here, people can play more than one game at a time. I am currently playing 4.

I got into ESO because i knew it was going to be at least 2019, 2020 before ES6 would come out. Beth likes to have 8 years between ES games = Skyrim Nov 11th, 2011

Considering TES6 most likely won't be out until early 2020's, I'd say ESO doesn't have to worry about competition for quite some time.

I've played since Daggerfall and was aware of Arena but didn't have the funds or right computer, and I play ESO, and I have witnessed the huge gap between Elder Scrolls titles this time and have no doubt why it has been such a wait. In part the development of a new engine and in part the rightful success of the game we are playing right now. Given that at the very earliest it's two years away and at the most maybe four, I am now realising I may be in Sovngarde before the seventh. So yeah, kill those elves for me and allow me a little mourning for the decline of modded singleplayers and me. And don't deny it's not been delayed because of us. It doesn't diminish ESO Online, I think those who missed it missed Valenwood ES VII a decade early and more fool them.

Greetings, while we are just as excited about the next chapter in TES, this forum is specifically for ESO. If you wish to further discuss this topic please do so here. https://bethesda.net/community/ Thank you for your understanding.
