Bethesda Game Studios director Todd Howard has confirmed that a new mainline Fallout, widely expected to be Fallout 5, is in early development alongside multiple unannounced Fallout projects. However, he cautions fans to remain patient as Elder Scrolls VI currently commands most of the studio's internal resources. Buoyed by the breakout success of the Fallout TV series and sustained support for Fallout 76, Bethesda insists Fallout remains its top-priority franchise, with design leadership aiming for massively replayable experiences spanning hundreds of hours.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Todd-Howard-Elder-Scrolls-6-takes-priority-as-multiple-new-Fallout-projects-quietly-advance.1194705.0.html
Clearly Howard is talking out of BOTH sides of his mouth while saying:
"Fallout is a TOP priority for us, we have most of the team working on TES6".
SO in a nutshell - look for not ONE but TWO botched releases: TES6 & FO5!!
Howard is going to pull a duke nukem forever on one of the world's most iconic franchises.
Howard has degenerated TES with every new iteration, both mechanically and from a role playing perspective. By the time TES7 comes out, it will just be Chilvary against bad AI.
