I'll be the first to say that I am NOT a game critic, so my takes may not be the most well informed. However, I am very familiar with BGS, and I mostly wanted to talk about Castles and discuss how I felt it reflected Bethesda's issues in the current day a bit. I wish I didn't have to be so negative about this game, but I truly don't have much positive to say. Also if you don't believe me, here's Lydia's page on the UESP and you can see that screenshot of her there: en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Lydia#:~:text=Lydia%20is%20a%20Nord%20housecarl,s%20burdens%20all%20across%20Skyrim. I could've gone on for hours about how derivative the game is or about how pointless this game is, or how the game has an Imperial Cult bias in the religious systems, but at the end of the day, this game just kind of sucks, and I think you could tell that without me saying much about it. Please lmk how you feel about Castles, though, I'd love to know.

You can sort of tell that Bethesda knows full well people are clambering for a new Elder Scrolls game, they know that there actually an audience there and that's why we are getting these spinoff games, but just drip feeding people half baked stuff like Castles isn't a good idea, because people are going to start being disappointed and might just make the assumption that when there finally is a mainline game, it's not gonna be any good. After seeing Starfield I personally have zero expectations for TES 6, I hope I'm wrong about that, but I just don't see it turning out any different. In the meantime I've been cooking up my own TTRPG campaign set in TES universe for me and my friends, we want to explore that world again, and we're tired of waiting, sure ESO exists and it's decent fun, but it's hardly a proper RPG.

Nah man you're dead on. The way that the Elder Scrolls IP has been treated by bethesda since the release of Skyrim has not been inspiring confidence, between the Skyrim re-releases, and the shitty mobile games, and how awful Starfield is has not built up any confidence for the release of ES6. I'm a fellow Elder Scrolls Super fan, Morrowind was my first PC game when I was like, 12 years old, I loved it, I loved everything about it. Oblivion was a bit of a disappointment, dont get me wrong it was still a good game but the world of Cyrodiili was so bland compared to how it was talked about in Morrowind, how it was talked about in the lore books, and Skyrim was... Well Skyrim was a good game too in its own right, I think all of the ES games have been great in their own ways, but I am biased towards Morrowind and I do feel that the games have been getting watered down again and again, but at least Skyrim brought back some social tension into the setting. Castles is bland, uninspired, and adds nothing of value to the IP like even Legends and Blades did

After playing for a week, the game has slowed down significantly after the start. I tried to see if it gets a bit better with no hope in sight. My goal was to make an entirely Argonian/Khajiit castle, but the children take like 3-4 DAYS to grow up. The daily tasks completely conflict with what you want to craft if you want a productive castle. You can only craft 1 thing at a time and you cannot build more crafting stations without having a bunch of gold and rare crafting materials (which I'm positive can't be obtained through normal gameplay.) Unless you spend money to get the early crafting stations (They're selling them for 10$ a piece and there's 6 of them,) you can't craft more than 1 type of resource at a time (Wood, Stone, Iron, Steel, etc.) The quests that you can send your dudes on has the depth of a kid's swimming pool and boils down to stats and weapon upgrades. The "challenges" are somewhat incompatible unless you kit your dudes out specifically, often making them take more damage than you would like, making you spent more potions or waste time having them heal at the buffet table. The difficulty spikes are pretty large and they expect each of your dudes you send out to be fully upgraded, again, cutting into your crafting stuff. This recent time limited event with the Blacksmith dagger quest recommends you to have Silver Weapons to take on without wasting potions (Which takes around castle level 100 to start crafting) while I'm only at about 50 and haven't even started Steel production. Steel armor and tools also require Iron, so if you're not sitting on a massive stockpile of the stuff, you have to craft both Iron and Steel on a 2 minute timer for each item meaning your smith is flip flopping between materials. And it doesn't just finish and start another queue and pool up all your crafting, oh no, you have to be present to tap on the station to collect the resources. It's just another mobile game full of timers so you'll pay for the fake currency to not waste time playing the game that's built to waste your time. Just download Fallout shelter on PC and mod it. It takes 2 seconds and doesn't have you pay Bethesda for low effort crap.

But for gems you can get a good amount from certain rulings and you can get them from tasks and quests. Same with things that you would spend gems on like potions, scrolls, and speed potions.

The Elder Scrolls 1 and 2 had masssive open-ended procedurally-generated terrains and role playing systems. The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind had a impossible level of handcrafting and detail to the games enviroments and world overall. The Elder Scrolls 4 used Speed Tree first, scheduled Npc's that posessed personalities and had their own dispositions, realistic physics through Havok, and incredible lighting and a fully dynamic world. The Elder Scrolls V had the scale of staggering mountain ranges, and rushing rivers... past that point? I guess The Elder Scrolls Online was their only MMO, it launched in a non-functional state. Fallout Shelter is their first mobile game, but full of "micro-transactions". Fallout 4 had crafting. Fallout 76... was the most low quality and glitchy game of all time. And the less said of Starfield the better, I think that Starfield is a terrible (not merely a lackluster) game but the design is total broken and anthetical. I want The Elder Scrolls 6 too succed of course, the odds are not in their favour as it's following a downward course contiuned over 10 years.

I dont mind the re-use of certain elements as sounds/music as Nintendo does too. In shelter they used sounds from the fallout series too, as the quest completitions from f4. But in general it feels as if devs are for easy cash, the shop is a joke. 2500 gems worth around 20 dollars for a deco that gives +10 gold. It feels as if devs havent played games of this genre, rullings become repetitive and the gameolay is very shallow.

This game I am disappointed on going to sell previous characters, but not model them is wrong. Yet, I have a good story to tell I thought was funny was when one of my workers died at the mill. His ghost was still working. It was shortly after someone then murdered me right in front of that mill. So, I have some positive points, but yes fallout shelter works where this so far feels a bit of a cash grab.

Idk if i count as a "young people" but im 19(born 2005)and have been an elder scrolls fan for what feels like forever. I havent played oblivion or morrowind but i cant wait to once my pc is working. As of right now ive put like 1,061 hours into skyrim and loved every second of it. I feel like people who are kids currently love elder scrolls too, even if they're as old as the game. I mean one of my favorite Star Wars games is the same age as me!(its Republic Commando its obviously dated but still a great game, totally recommend it)

Bugthesda is dead, gamers have to come to terms with it. Much like MANY other studio's before them, that lived long enough to see themselves become a meme. Look to indies for the future of gaming, the AAA market has long since jumped the shark.

I had two female characters have sex and they made a baby. I named the baby J'esus. This is a 1/5 game, but I think the baby character models are cute. So I'll give it 2/5.

I start to get the feeling that there was some kind of corruption that hit the industry and made good stuff stop being made. I fell in love with Genshin Impact as a fresh, amazing new game world. Occasionally, there's a new TV show that captures my attention - but those are rare. And increasingly, I find myself disconnecting. Not watching TV. Not playing new games. Playing old classic titles. Still playing ESO, Lord of the Rings Online. It's almost like technology made game design, CGI, everything easier - and in the process, the inventiveness, the thoughtfulness, the charm of the classics was lost. New stuff may have the form, but never the spirit of old things. It feels like we're becoming lost. I bought a new top of the line PC at the end of last year and started researching the most graphically advanced RPG's to stress test it with. And I came up with games like Red Dead Redemption 2... a game from 2018. Now every time something new comes out, it's infused with DEI stuff like pronoun selection - but no quality, no fun. Look at those characters in this Elder Scrolls mobile game. Heck, you can't even tell what gender they are. Though in fairness, mobile games have always been a similar variety of trash with heavy monetization. But there was a moment when mobile games did have a little bit of promise... Back when old people were playing Farmville and Words with Friends with each other. Even that, now, seems lost. The sad thing is, that some of these companies have been screwing around making garbage for so long that... like you said, by the time they pull their heads out of their rears and decide to return to their old IP's... to steal a LOTR line - there will be none living who remember... and much which once was, will be lost.

Is there still an active community in Legends? I played it from beta for a long time but like all good things, Bethesda eventually throws it away. One of the best card games on the market without a doubt.

This is why it is important to never allow oneself to be blindly allied with a franchise. Bethesda is a complete joke, maybe they always were and Skyrim was an anomaly. I have zero faith in TES 6 being an improved game from Skyrim.

I played castles when ever they put it out in ?beta? a few months ago, doesn't look like much has changed lol. But I stuck with it for a decent bit because there's concepts that I liked in it that I wanted to see if they went anywhere. Like for instance having individual happiness for each race in your court, or that each irl day was a year in game, but it all just kind of ends up being fluff. Sure your characters will age and die but the heir to the throne that's pissed he's not king and the crown instead went to his dad's lust argonian maid hasn't done anything in two years except pout. Or yeah making this ruling will make the High Elfs mad but we'll have more food, but there's no reason to pick it over the ruling that will make them happy cause food is almost inconsequential. I wanted to like it based off the concepts it was pitching, but the game design was just the typical zero-friction slop that you can get just about any where with mobile games.

With it being a phone game there's not much to expect. The gameplay is reasonably unique and has deeper mechanics than fallout shelter. The art and asset flipping is done for familiarity. May seem lazy I guess but it's a product, not some new thing from someone's imagination, it's elderscrolls. I do wish they put more effort into the unique characters but im enjoying the breton style and looking forward to the new ones that may come. Your opinion is valid and when I first saw adds for this game I knew plenty of people would dislike it. I have it downloaded, and am enjoying it so far.
