To address this issue, TES 6 could take inspiration from games such as Pillars of Eternity, God of War, and Bioshock Infinite, whose companions demonstrate helpful and intuitive AI. However, players often encounter the challenge of working around their companions' sometimes glitchy AI in exchange for this variety. Skyrim, in particular, offers a plethora of companions that cater to different playstyles. TES boasts a diverse range of followers hailing from various factions, holds, and quests. Incorporating fresh mechanics could make the wait for this highly anticipated game well worth it. With Redfall now released and Starfield still in progress, the TES 6 team has ample time to consider innovative features and draw inspiration from other successful triple-A titles released since Skyrim's debut in 2011. However, this comes as no surprise as game director Todd Howard has made it clear that Redfall and Starfield will be released prior to TES 6's development. Despite being announced at E3 2018, Bethesda has yet to provide any updates on The Elder Scrolls 6.
