Bethesda Thursdays

There are obviously a lot of hopes and expectations putting pressure on The Elder Scrolls Online, which the game’s creative lead has been trying to manage as best he can. This has included going into some detail about the game’s PvP system and the ways in which it will give players “total control”. He has also discussed the size of the game world at some length.

Meanwhile, on the single-player The Elder Scrolls front, the Dragonborn DLC for Skyrim can be pre-ordered on Steam now, meaning that PC players won’t have to wait much longer for the latest and greatest expansion to Skyrim.

Arkane Studios, meanwhile, are looking for a senior graphics programmer and a tools programmer. Both positions are at the original Arkane studio in France.

Dishonored, meanwhile, has racked up a number of nominations at the Game Developers Choice Awards.

And there was a short OpenMW update posted earlier in the week. Work continues apace on that project.
