I too was wondering if they would be taking graphical tip's from John carmack with Bethesda's acquisition of ID software.

Thinking about it, whatever the new engine is, it had better be moddable.

They'd be crazy not to take advantage of having Carmack there.  The engine under Oblivion/Fallout was okay, but they have ID and the ID5 tech in-house now and I'd love to see how it could be used, with it's megatexture tech, to something like an Oblivion game.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Seriously its about damn time they updated their graphics engine.  Hopefully Elder Scrolls 5 will be better then their past Elder Scroll games.
