They finally settled after like 5 months of sueing each other? thank god.
I just hope the new Elder Scrolls game is out before Fallout 4 is, and to be honest i think a Elders Scrolls MMO would be alot better than a Fallout one
Bethesda likes to completely rebuild their games from absolutely nothing except the general setting (Nirn/Tamriel). It makes entries into The Elder Scrolls franchise seem more like totally new games, than just some copypast ***with new content added.(Not that that's always a bad thing, hell, that's what New Vegas is looking like)
But The Elder Scrolls 5 will almost undoubtedly be out before Fallout 4. They have been working on TES5 for a long time. The more experienced programmers and such likely began looking for, or building an engine immediately after TES4 was finished. There's this misconception that after a game is finished and/or ships, Devs "Take a break" but that's no true, as soon as one is done, they move on to the next, or sometimes even move on to the next before one is finished, depending on their duties. (Such as if the artists are filling the world with Content, the programmers would be creating the backbone of a new, different game)
An Elder Scrolls MMO is in development, but not by Bethesda Softworks game studio. Zenimax Online is handling the MMO, with likely the only original input coming from lead designer Todd Howard.
