After all, Bethesda doesn’t strike us as a company that’s willing to change the formula for a game that has sold well over 30 million copies to date solely in the interest of mixing things up. That’s why Obsidian’s Avowed is in the unique position to learn a few lessons from Skyrim, which we’re not entirely sure will be addressed by The Elder Scrolls 6.

For all the praise and accolades we could add to Skyrim’s intimidating treasure trove of them, we wouldn’t exactly call it the game that best represents the grander ideas of The Elder Scrolls franchise and the ways in which the series forever changed the landscape for role-playing video games. That may seem like blasphemy, but it’s actually quite appropriate. In fact, the name “ Skyrim” has become so synonymous with The Elder Scrolls series, that we’re a little surprised The Elder Scrolls 6 wasn’t just titled “ Skyrim 2.” There may even be a considerable number of Skyrim players who don’t typically associate one of the most beloved games of all-time with the classic Elder Scrolls series at all.
Bethesda even released a version of the game on Amazon’s Echo device, which started as a joke but proved beyond any doubt that the studio does not joke around when it comes to finding new ways to make you buy Skyrim. Not only is The Elder Scrolls the definitive name in first-person RPGs for many console gamers, but Avowed comes just as we’re all patiently waiting for more information regarding The Elder Scrolls 6.īesides, much like the wounds left in the wake of your first lost love, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim refuses to leave us, with plenty of re-releases and even a remastered edition to remind us of those adventures in the north of Tamriel. It’s hardly a surprise that the reveal of Avowed, Obsidian Entertainment’s upcoming first-person RPG based on the Pillars of Eternity universe, quickly got everyone talking about The Elder Scrolls.
