So, the Bethesda game studios company here announced that it was going to have its very first live conference on Feburary 10, 2015. Not much info or speculation for this conference as of yet, except for some possible and rumored Fallout discussion!


Some optional discussion questions:

What do you expect or hope from Bethesda this year?
What do you think about this being their very first E3 conference?
Could this presentation this steal the show for you? If so, how could they?
Share any other thoughts here!

*Be aware that this thread is open for discussion before, during, and after their E3 conference!*

It's cool that they are making an appearance at E3 this year; I hope they return for future expos.

Ideally I'm hoping for a hint to a new Elder Scrolls game, but I wouldn't expect something like that until at least next year (if Bethesda makes another appearance). We don't need a release date or anything, but a lot of people do want to know where the next game will take place 8)

But no, I don't think this presentation will steal the show for me. I'm expecting Fallout announcements, which is a series that I, personally, am not interested in.

Even if there are no plans for another Fallout game, I think ES6 is unlikely to be announced since it would overshadow Elder Scrolls Online's console release next week. I know Bethesda and ZOS are two different producers, but I imagine that Bethesda wouldn't want to distract ESO players with a new main ES game so soon ;P

Well, they're definitely doing something with Fallout, so that's pretty much guaranteed to show up in some form, although I was expecting them to save the announcement for E3 itself with Fallout being one of their major series and this being their first conference. That was all I wanted out of Bethesda and I'm not really expecting much from the others, so Bethesda will probably be the show stealer for me unless Naughty Dog announces Jak 4 or Nintendo announces that they bought the Mega Man franchise and are bringing Legends 3 back. I can dream

All I want is more information on Fallout 4! How big is the world? Are we going to get to explore the Pre-War like I've been hearing? Is it going to be on a new engine (because I still can't tell from the trailer)? ARE THEY FINALLY GOING TO GET GOOD ANIMATIONS?!

Elder Scrolls information, please. It will be 4 years since the release of Skyrim in a few months, so I definitely think we could be in time for a hint at least.

Fallout 4 will definitely make an appearance and Doom will probably too. I'm excited, Bethesda is one of my favorite studios.

and i will love to see that day

I'm sorry...

I'M SORRY. No one told me Adam Sessler and Moran Webb would be doing Pre-show commentary. No one told me my birthday was apparently today and they wanted to bring back memories of that show I used to watch as a kid.

Well this is pretty great.

E3's over folks, Fallout 4 wins! Flawless Victory. Just. Just. Just. Just. I need a doctor because I literally just had my mind blown in 300 different ways.

Indeed. Alot of it feels like what Skyrim wanted to be. It feels a lot less rigid than previous games by that development team, a lot more fluid.

I'm sold. And that mobile game looks good too. I hate it. I don't use my phone for games but I want it, uuuuuugh.

am I the only one not overly excited here about fallout 4 just yet? looks like they've mostly just focused on peripherals such as weapon creation.

doom gameplay looks alright, dishonored 2 trailer looks okay, too. don't care about another mobile game, I really want bethesda to use more of their resources making fallout 4 instead.

Overly excited? Not at all. I want Fallout 4 more than I did before the event because, frankly, I've had my expectations pretty low after Skyrim, but the concept art really showed how much care the artists put into the game (which I appreciate) and the engine seems a lot less restrictive and rigid than pretty much any of their games since Oblivion, which is really something that should have happened earlier but, hey, better late than never.

It's not my expected GOTY and it's not my most anticipated game of the year, but I am looking forward to it.

That said, as one who's seldom- nay, never swayed by mobile games (because I really just can't get into a mobile gaming experience)- that mobile game looks pretty fun. Will I play it...ehhhhhhhhhhhh...

...For now I'll just say it looks pretty fun.

Eugh, they went the Mass Effect route with a fully voiced protag and the hideous dialogue wheel. I hated not knowing what my character was actually going to say based on two words. Thank god for modders; they'll fix it soon enough after release, I'm sure.

Have to agree with machomuu, the engine does seem a lot less restrictive now. It's pretty neat that they added in so many mechanics you'd normally see in a well-rounded survival game, like The Forest. Scrapping parts to build a fortress and bringing in new traders. Character creation feels a lot like Sims 4, and in that sense, making a nose that looks like it belongs on a human face should be 10000x easier now. The power armor is a god damn vehicle. And they clearly wanted to be Dead Rising with all the whacky outfits and weapons.. not that I'm complaining about that. :v

Still really excited for a new Fallout, but that dialogue wheel is gonna be a thorn in my side until I see an alternative.

Guys....DOOM 4.

Unless they get Black Isle/Obsidian writers writing for Fallout 4, DOOM 4 wins as far as Bethesda E3 goes.
I dunno, I'm hoping that was an early build or something, but I worry about that game's game feel. There didn't seem to be a lot of feedback for things, specifically for anything that required killing demons with your bare hands.

Snapmap looks cool, though.
