Honestly: no.
The game is fine but when I loaded it up this goblin guy came out of nowhere and he just started biting my leg. He kept biting, and biting, and biting. He wouldn’t stop. It was sick. I had to fling him across the room. My whole family was there. It was horrible.

If TES6 isn't truly ethereal, then I don't want it.
I want TES to feel set apart from other fantasy games. How it was intended from the beginning. The games got dumber and dumber, and so did the setting as a whole.
Don't get me wrong, Oblivion and Skyrim are fantastic games that gave us a lot of material but;
TES was once about esoteric concepts and larger-than-life forces. I want wheels within wheels. Grand stories of the towers, of the cycle of wakefulness. Creation and uncreation, infinites within finites.
Bleeding hearts of dead and outcast gods. The struggles of mortality and divinity.
Perhaps not in pure gameplay- or most ceraintly definitely not, but rather the existence of. The feeling of deeper, darker, larger things.
Maybe in 6 we'll see the Thalmor be more than background boogeymen. Please, Bethesda, explore the metaphysicality that makes The Elder Scrolls actually different.
Oh and make the Dark Brotherhood not shit again, please. Hail sithis, or something.
The next Elder Scrolls game is reportedly titled ‘THE ELDER SCROLLS VI: SENTINEL’.
An official announcement will happen soon.

Most people think of Picard of Prof X when they think of Patrick Stewart but my first exposure to him in media and entertainment was when he voiced a crazy old man telling me about his visions of a Hell invasion in Oblivion. I'll miss the guy. He was a true actor.

They should add a moth priest quest line where you become blind and can only see the UI for the rest of the game without any actual graphics rendering

"No trophies of my triumphs precede me. But I have lived well, and my ghost shall rest easy. Men are but flesh and blood. They know their doom, but not the hour. In this I am blessed to see the hour of my death... To face my apportioned fate, then fall."

Rest in peace to Sir Patrick Stewart — an emperor, a captain, and an inspiration to us all.
Our thoughts are with his loved ones.

The value of #Fortnite Crew has fallen by 15,000 V-Bucks (~$150) in the last year 📉
This was mostly due to the fact that there were far fewer Passes this year than last. Additionally, pricing changes in the spring caused the value of Crew to fall even further.

'...the majority of designers I've worked with over the past 20 years are lazy" my dude this is the cover to your own band's s/t record and it's literally just a color invert of the cover from 2 records prior
I actually fully embrace AI. While I love physical art and the talented people who create it (myself being one of them) I also think the majority of designers I have worked with over the past 20 years are lazy and allowed themselves to be replaced due to complacency and greed. I prefer my prompts and the collective hive mind and efficiency of the future. Just my opinion but I embrace it. Also it will absolutely kill us all.
