The Elder Scrolls 6 is Definitely Doomed

The Elder Scrolls 6 finally has a name: Sentinel, set in Hammerfell several years after Skyrim. And it's heading down the exact same road that killed BioWare. From Morrowind to Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 4 and Starfield, Bethesda learned all the wrong lessons from its own success. There's little hope for their next game.
