The Future, I had to do it. Options

[Channler]

So I have an invariable amount of time a day to sit down and reflect. And today I sat down at my computer and decided to type in a few letters that haven't graced my computer in a long 2 or 3 years. Morrowind.com

We all know this just leads to the TES main site, but it reminded me, before the release/announcement of Oblivion, the fervor that which I checked those forums every day, and the absolute excitement I received when the Daedric runes came up when I visited the site.

Well I don't know why, but I feel a little bit of that excitement again. I almost feel like I'm about to jump into the goon rush that is the elder scrolls forums and jump into one of those "TESV" threads. Interesting stuff guessing the future.

Anyways so I think I'll be the first to open up with the grossly general question..

What do you hope for, for TESV?

1. Story.

2. Replayability
<snip>
3. Unique player characters
<snip>
4. Intelligent leveling
<snip>

All this, plus a world that is actually worth exploring. Unique encounters/artifacts/items with fixed locations instead of having everything (or almost everything) scaled to your level/randomized. Noticeably different regions and locations, not a bunch of dungeons/ruins/whatever that all feel the same. And locations that actually change as the story progresses and keep changing (I'm looking at you, Kvatch). For a game where the exploration of the game world plays a huge role, the exploration should damn better be interesting and fun.


Yeah, fat chance of this ever happening, eh?
