Fan Creates His Own Elder Scrolls 6 to Skip the Wait


Seven years have elapsed since Bethesda’s teaser for The Elder Scrolls 6, and although fans are keenly anticipating its launch, a devoted fan, known as Corviak, has taken initiative. Corviak has designed a thorough concept for a possible Elder Scrolls 6, named “The Elder Scrolls 6 – Nightwield,” which encompasses detailed information on gameplay mechanics, user interface, and additional elements.

Corviak’s endeavor is not a game but a meticulous outline, a vision of what the forthcoming Elder Scrolls edition might look like. Leveraging years of fan input and personal imagination, Corviak has assembled a Google Docs document detailing various gameplay facets such as the level system, skills, combat, stealth mechanics, factions, and vampirism. Significantly, Nightwield introduces the option for players to affiliate with aggressive factions, a characteristic missing in earlier titles such as Oblivion and Skyrim.

Besides gameplay ideas, Corviak has developed visual mockups, featuring images of the main menu, combat scenarios, armor designs, and different menus like inventory and skill allocation. The community has reacted favorably, with numerous users showing appreciation for the project’s intricacy and inventiveness. Some have even recommended that Corviak consider pursuing a role at Bethesda.

While not every element of Nightwield has received universal acclaim, with some users critiquing the graphic style, the project has ignited considerable interest and dialogue within the community. Nightwield takes place in Hammerfall and High Rock, areas believed to be included in the official Elder Scrolls 6, further heightening excitement and speculation among fans.
