Bethesda game director Todd Howard recently emerged blinking into the light of day for an interview with Greg Miller on the Kinda Funny Gamescast. During that interview, he pointed out that Starfield's next update isn't going to change your mind on Starfield if you didn't already love it.
The topic of The Elder Scrolls 6 came up as well, with Howard reiterating that he didn't enjoy having to announce it so far in advance, but did so because otherwise people wouldn't stop bloody asking about it. It's our own fault, really. Howard was also careful to point out that Elder Scrolls 6 won't be anything like Starfield or Fallout 76.
"I think we've—if you look at our games—we've always evolved," Howard said. "We do have a certain style that we like and our fans like that we want to get better and better at. I think in some ways—in many ways, Fallout 76 and Starfield are a little bit of a creative detour from that classic Elder Scrolls, Fallout, you know, a Skyrim, or a Fallout 3, or a Fallout 4, Oblivion, where you're exploring a world in a certain way. And, as we come back to Elder Scrolls 6 that we're doing now, we're coming back to that classic style that we've missed, that we know really, really well."
