Rumors about The Elder Scrolls 6: Alliance of Peace

Riding the wave of Skyrim's phenomenal success, rumors about the next installment are already circulating online. It is reportedly already in development and will be set in a hot, desert-like environment with oases, reminiscent of Arab cultures. The main race inhabiting the area will be the Khajiit. The plot will revolve around thieves who steal an ancient dagger that allows time travel. Rumors suggest the following features and interesting facts about the game:
* A map four times larger than Skyrim;
* Slower and more realistic gameplay;
* New AI that will react appropriately to all player actions (for example, if the player jumps in place in front of an NPC, they might say something like "What the hell is that supposed to mean?" or simply shake their head);
* Flying mounts and aerial combat will be included;
* Players will be able to build their own settlement;
* The game will feature thousands of unique models thanks to a new rendering system (there will be no two identical swords, items, NPCs, or enemies);
* Most quests will take many hours to complete;
* There will be approximately 1000 side quests;
* A new, unique combat system with precise hits and realistic dismemberment (each battle will be a separate adventure). If a wound is not bandaged or a dislocated limb is not treated in time, the player's condition will worsen;
* The game will feature hunger, the need for food, water, and sleep;
* About 60% of the Morrowind creators are on the development team;
* The game will have a new leveling and experience system that removes level caps and the level system altogether;
* The game will feature a weapon and equipment generation system;
* Players will be able to kill any NPC in the game world;
* The game is being built on a new, unannounced engine that will deliver stunning visuals;
* The beginning of the game will depend on the player's choices; it is rumored that if the player chooses the Khajiit race at the beginning of the game, they will directly participate in a tomb robbery and witness the theft of the dagger;
* There will be a chance of dying from a random death, such as being bitten by a poisonous insect if not treated in time;
* The game will feature a new race resembling halflings or dwarves, who will be guests from a distant, unnamed country;
* Sand will be a physical object that will change based on player interaction;
* Multiple endings;
* The game's codename during development is TES6: Alliance of Peace;
* The game has been in development for almost a year and a half;
* The game will be released on next-generation consoles (PlayStation 4:D :D) at the end of 2014.

Perhaps this is just a rumor... But it would be nice to play such a game.

Yes, it strongly resembles someone's not-so-original idea. Especially these points:

* there will be the ability to build your own settlement; * the game will feature thousands of unique models thanks to a new rendering system for everything (there won't be two identical swords, items, NPCs, or enemies); * a new, unique combat system, with precise hits and realistic dismemberment (each battle will be a separate adventure); if you don't bandage a wound or treat a dislocated limb in time, the player's condition will worsen; * the game will feature hunger, the need for food, water, and sleep; * there will be the ability to kill every NPC in the game world; (this is something for immature maniacs) * sand will be a physical object that will change based on player interaction;

It seems, what's so special about these points? Well, firstly, they are somewhat unusual for TES. It would be quite expected if one of these things were included, but all of them together... And secondly... Why would I need to interact with sand?! Am I supposed to eat it?

I laughed out loud.

* a map four times larger than Skyrim;

Judging by the official maps, Elsweyr is about twice the size of Skyrim. What will they put in there?

* the game will feature a new race resembling halflings or dwarves; they will be guests from a distant, as yet unnamed country;

He-he, will the Dwemer be resurrected? :D

* the game has been in development for almost a year and a half;

Well, well. They started working on a new installment while still finishing Skyrim.

* the game will be released on next-generation consoles (PlayStation 4:D :D) at the end of 2014.

Yeah, they spent 5 years making Skyrim, but they'll manage to make a game four times bigger in 3.5 years. :D

Although the “announcement” is clearly a hoax, Mент, in Morrowind, you could both kill any NPC in the game and build your own settlement (three of them, one settlement per Great House).

Judging by the official maps, Elsweyr is about twice the size of Skyrim. What will they put there?

probably Summerset, Valenwood, and something else.

He-he, will the Dwemer resurrect? :D

not Dwemer, but Dwarves. Maybe for Bethesda, Dwarves = Hobbits.

Well, well. They started working on a new part, without finishing Skyrim yet.

initial drafts, like sketches and simple "bare" models (without animations), are quite likely.

Yeah, they worked on Skyrim for 5 years, and they'll manage to make a game four times bigger in 3.5 years. :D

considering the 1.5 years from Skyrim's development (they said they were working on it in parallel), it will be 5 years.

not Dwemer, but Dwarves. Maybe in Bethesda, Dwarves = Hobbits.

In TES, there are many other races that seem to exist but rarely appear (except for some of them as NPCs): Ayleids, Maormer, Skaal, Reachmen, Imga, Kamal, Sload, Tang Mo, Tsaesci, Rieklings, Ice Giants, Centaurs, Dreugh.

There are mentions of them in books, dialogues, and so on.

And here, suddenly, there are halflings, about whom no one has heard or seen. And nothing is written about them in any book. And they decided to add them as a full-fledged playable race. That just can't be.

the first drafts, like sketches and simple "bare" models (without animations), are quite likely.

Even the simplest things for a new game are foolish to start doing six months before the release of a buggy and unfinished project. And even immediately after the release of TES 5, it is foolish to immediately start TES 6, because the team should patch the project and develop add-ons and DLC.

taking into account the 1.5 years from the development of Skyrim (they said that they were working on it in parallel), it will be 5 years.

I took these years into account in the calculations. This "news" claims that the game has supposedly been in development for 1.5 years, and in 2 years it will be released.

It's clearly fake news. Can't you see it?

They would have conquered all of Tamriel and its surroundings!

They would have "remade" all of Tamriel and its surroundings!

Who said "Daggerfall"?
