Former Bethesda dev Bruce Nesmith claims The Elder Scrolls 6 will have to overcome higher expectations than most games to land well among fans. Given the enduring success of Skyrim and the long wait since the next Elder Scrolls' initial reveal, few, if any, gamers would deny that Bethesda's next effort has a high bar to clear. However, Nesmith thinks the expectations surrounding The Elder Scrolls 6 wouldn't be nearly as high if the game was coming from a different studio.
The wait for Skyrim's sequel has been a long and mostly silent one. Bethesda first unveiled The Elder Scrolls 6 more than seven years ago with a teaser that revealed nothing other than the fact that the company was working on the game. In the years that have followed, fans have learned next to nothing new about the RPG, but hype has risen as word has spread that Bethesda is making solid progress on it. Still, at least one insider is warning to manage expectations, not because of the game's quality, but because of where it comes from.
