That’s cool I wish they would unveil Elder Scrolls 6.
It’s been longer since that teaser than the time between Skyrim’s original release and the teaser.
I thought for sure you were wrong but that was EIGHT years ago.
I maintain to this day that they had barely started on anything relating to the actual game when the teaser was released, and it was entirely just an attempt to save face from FO76’s disastrous launch.
Yeah, I once heard that in the video game industry, you start pre-production of a title about a year before you get started with proper development (a.k.a. “production”).
So, pre-production means brainstorming the game concept, theme, maybe initial concept art, maybe some prototypes etc…
But to quote Wikipedia:
The game entered pre-production by 2018, formally being announced during Bethesda’s E3 2018 conference. The game entered active production in 2023 following Starfield’s launch.
So, presumably they kicked in pre-production for a few weeks in 2018, specifically to produce that trailer. And then put it back aside and didn’t really get started until 2022 or so. 🙃
all for fucking starfield
worth it. games amazing
gasp
It really has been that long.
I don’t know what you guys are talking about. It’s perpetually 1998 in my mind.
Hey, crazy stuff going on with the president, huh? They’re even talking about voting for IMPEACHMENT!!!
Boy, you know you have a political mudslide when they’re talking about impeachment! Nixon almost faced that, but he resigned. Which means the last impeachment was in 1797! Crazy right???
…hey, what’s going on in 2026?
…
eyes slowly widen as jaw drops
Hello, I come from the future, please tell your Floridian friends to vote Blue in the next election (and ask them to tell the same to their friends). Just a few hundred would suffice.
Trust me, it’s really, really important.
Now that they finished the logo they can get to work on it.
Maybe it’s nostalgia bait, but I don’t care. I hate the minimalist era that we’ve been in for awhile. Give me 80s or 90s styled stuff any day.
Okay boomer
Perfect logo for upcoming nostalgia bait remasters of their older games. Absolute garbage company.
This 1000%
Yep MS has failed hard to gain any market share with the generation of gamers that came after millennials. So now they are trying to win back millennials and Gen X gamers who used to own an Xbox with nostalgia bait. They already did the rebranding to the old XBOX logo and the release of the limited edition green console.
It matches their overall nostalgia farming corporate strategy. Looks very retro. Maybe it can get some to buy yet another version of Skyrim.
Why would anyone buy a game, because of a company logo?
I can hear Shuntaro Furukawa laughing from here…
Have you seen the response when MS rebranded the Xbox logo to the old version? They immediately put Asha Sharma on a pedestal. Many adult gamers that are my age (30+ year olds) are idiots who are hankering to wallow in nostalgia of their youth.
Bethesda still releases new stuff?
Ah yes, 1986, the last time they were a proper game dev.
Unless it has ‘under new management’ on it, I don’t think anyone is going to care.
I hope they actually release a Bethesda game so they can put this logo on it.
Microsoft “Hey Bethesda, we need some more distractions”
That’s up there with the logos for OCP and ENCOM.
It’s their 1986–2000 one. https://logos.fandom.com/wiki/Bethesda_Softworks
After closing a dozen popups on that shitty site, I determined… eh, not really, but similar. Inspired by.
May I bring you the good word of our lord and saviour ublock origin?
Looks like a joke logo you see for a split second among hundred others in the mock credits of a Gaspar Noé movie.
I thought that said battlefield and was excited for a 2142 remake. It’s been a long day.
Does it fly away at the speed of light if you tilt it?
LMAO. All my old ass sees is a stolen SNES logo with neon colors added.
That whole studio is a goddamn joke. I feel sorry for the creative geniuses keeping it afloat. They deserve better. Much much better. People don’t leave bad jobs. They leave bad managers.
Old enough to remember the snes logo, but your criticism sounds like something an adolescent would say for attention.
HAHAHAH… you serious?
You really think Nintendo invented this style of logo creation, with the main title in big and a bottom subtitles, and the font in Red. This logo doesn’t even look like SNES logo. Oh wait, every company stole the SNES logo, because it has letters in red in it! Oh yeah how could I forgot that. Now when I look the images side by side, I realize that I should have named the files accordingly, because I forgot which one is the original. Have a look:
