It seems like it would be an incredible opportunity for Bethesda to have all of its eggs in Fallout’s basket, and yet the studio has decided to appeal to the louder corner of its playerbase community by devoting itself to developing and launching The Elder Scrolls 6 first. It would not be out of the realm of possibility for Fallout 5 to take cues from The Elder Scrolls 6’s open world and RPG mechanics, and thus it is probably beneficial for players who adore Fallout and are looking forward to Fallout 5 to also monitor what future improvements and evolutions Bethesda makes with The Elder Scrolls, as the development of the latter could have an impact on that of the former regarding gameplay mechanics.
