Everyone thinks The Elder Scrolls VI will be called Sentinel

Its not outside the realm of possibility that "sentinel" was just an easter egg on the character creation screen. Especially if it's been there since the game launched.

I'm gonna be honest, I haven't played a single Bethesda game for longer than about 30 minutes. It has been a decade and a half since they were in their prime, which was when i was a kid with no money to buy games. It is going to be interesting watching the hype train for the belated follow up to skyrim crash into reality.

Then again, i haven't really seen any excitement for this game. Pretty much everyone seems to know on some level that Bethesda had lost the sauce before the buyout.

Bethesda did great with Skyrim back in 2011 it was kinda state of the art (not really but let's just say it was a hit at the time).
But even then, it wasn't extremely innovative - it barely improved upon Oblivion, which was a 2006 game.

Anyway, since Skyrim, Bethesda have been making 2011-era games. Starfield feels like a 2011 game with slightly -slightly- better graphics. I tried playing the Fallout games but I never liked the series, it just felt like wasteland Skyrim.

For me, Sentinel is Bethesda's last chance. Can they really make a 2027 (or 2028) modern era game? I mean, the open world RPG genre has evolved so much over the years. They better get their shit together.

Just waiting for it to come out and be just marginally better than Fallout 4. Which was marginally better than Skyrim, speaking of the games engine. Bethesda has a nasty habit of releasing technically broken games and acting like its a work of god. Skyrim was great fun, but very dated in 2011. If it weren't for community patches and mods, I wouldn't have spent so much time playing it tbh.
