A new report suggests Microsoft may also be giving thought to spinning off its Xbox division or selling it entirely.

    Estimated chance of TES6 being good plunges to new lows

    Last main series ES game came out 15 years ago, they really should let it die with what dignity it still has, same with Fallout.

      Which is a shame, because TES’ lore is incredible.

      Microsoft should have left all their franchises behind and hired creative talent to make new IPs, instead they put any developers they could get on crunch time to spew out shitty sequels. Now that strategy has come to bite them in the ass, as they don’t have appeal any more.

    spinning off its Xbox division or selling it entirely.

    Would be really funny if Sega bought it and got back into the console market, but the more likely buyer would be Sony.

      Sony would buy the studios and their IP but wouldn’t touch Xbox with a 10 feet pole. Buying to bury the brand might get them labeled as Gatekeeper by the EU

    Why did they announce TES6 anyways?

    Like, I thought it wind be 2-3 years out from announcement. This is kind of insane.

    GT6 is pretty similar too.

    Pay no attention to the 14th Halo remaster. Or the 67th Skyrim rerelease. Or Fallout Totally Better Than New Vegas 12.

    No, we’re gonna make something new. Trust us.
