It has been 10 years since Fallout 4 and 13 years since The Elder Scrolls5:Skyrim. Since then, Bethesda has released Fallout 76 in 2018 and of course hasn't sat in its hands for several years with the studio's main focus being Starfield. But fans may occasionally be allowed to wonder how long these things will take, more than just qualification, when Skyrim came out on this dust ball, I was young, for God's sake.

We know that The Elder Scrolls6 is in development, so there are no details beyond the teaser images, but at least there are reasons to be hilarious. But while there's nothing in Fallout 5, Bethesda's Emil Pagliarulo has recently warned players that "it takes time to make something great.""

Todd Howard recently did an interview with Kinda Funny Games, which discusses all sorts of things around Bethesda's games, focusing on the Fallout side after the amazon show, and giving players some help in this regard

"If I didn't make these games," Howard said, "I'd just be able to play them." You'll be playing with them all the time. Even this weekend, I was jumping between Starfield and Fallout 76 and Fallout 4.

"And because they take a long time, I think one of the things we focus on here is obviously to make sure they are of the best quality, but also to find a way to increase our output because we don't want to wait too long. It's never our plan, but we want to make sure you get it right.

Seriously: Even the most optimistic do not expect The Elder Scrolls by 2026, so it will mark 15 years between entries. If such a form continued, I would really approach retirement before Elder Scrolls7 even shone in Todd's eyes and was 8 feet down before Elder Scrolls 6. Even if Bethesda had a finger on a lot of pies, it's one of the real examples of how complex and protracted the development cycle of these huge games has been.1

This is one of the many minor revelations from Howard's interview, and he also warns his dear old mom about the racial element of the Fallout TV show, which is probably my biggest takeaway: If I'm really, really lucky, I'll have 2 more messages before I go to that great vault in the sky.
