Well, here you go. Fallout 76 is not going free to play I echo Motty though, still enjoying the game and my husband has made himself a slew of caps as a vendor. I would know because I am his pack mule. LOL As for ES6, whatever comes, comes. 

Legion said: Mr. Edd said: Beth's got Inon Zur too, and he's awesome, he's the dude who also created that timeless and epic score for Dragon Age Origins, probably one of my all-time favorites... but I'm a very stubborn guy. I like my stuff to remain "consistent", i.e I don't like change unless absolutely necessary, lol. I hope Jeremy returns, it's part of the Soule of The Elder Scrolls, you know? You're welcome. Didn't realize they had him. I didn't even know he's the one who's been composing Fallout's scores. Which is a bit unfortunate since I feel as though every soundtrack past Fallout 3 has gotten more and more generic.* The themesongs especially. They're beginning to blend too much with the likes of TES' soaring arrangements. FO4 and 76's main themes just sound way too bright and postive and not at all post apocalyptic. But I'm guessing that has more do with the games they're for than Zur's ability to create good music.  *Not every. Just FO4. Can't speak for 76's. But it was disappointing as shit to load up FO4 for the first time and not hear that BUM BUM BUM BUM part. At 1:00. Pretty sure he also tuned way up for FO4.  Speaking as a professional musician, the themes are very similar, Legion, just a slight retool and a key change for FO4, subbing orchestral slap that you heard in FO3, the BUM BUM BUM BUM so to speak, with actually the starkness of a piano in the opening. The BUM BUM BUM BUM is actually present, just in piano reduction. Sounds more "pioneer" which actually fits with the Commonwealth setting, especially when there is a touch of solo fiddle before the main theme kicks in. But similar to me can be very different to another set of ears.  Just like Oblivion's theme borrows from Morrowind, and Skyrim's main theme borrows from both Oblivion and Morrowind. I guess it's like not having the heartbeat rhythmic figure that proceeds every ES game. Rather ingenious actually, Heart of Lorkhan, heartbeat rhythm. And yes, it's present in Oblivion's theme too, just heavily disguised under the brass fanfare and sped up.  As for ESO, Brad Derrick and Rik Schaffer borrowed material from Jeremy Soule to keep ES thematic consistency. I do not doubt that the person who is selected to composer for ES6 will do the same. It is expected, I think.  It's certainly the possible end of an era, but I personally enjoy the ESO score and I like the scores for Fallout 4 and 76, just like I enjoy the scores for the prior games. If Inon Zur is selected, I'm actually rather curious to see what he does, as his work is interesting to me.  To be honest, considering the current state of modern classical art music, video game scoring represent a growing niche in some quality, accessible, yet thematically rich material being composed. I already feature the more prominent composers of game scores in my Music Appreciation classes. Film composers too.  Just my two cents on the matter. 

When Ash from my Evil Dead build was able to romance Piper surrounded by a pile of ghouls at the Super Duper Mart. Because that is EXACTLY how an episode of Ash vs Evil Dead would go. Second, when Roy Batty met DiMa. 

Ah damn, I'm three people. My personality is definitely somewhere between Urag gro-Shub and Inge Six Fingers because I'm both a scholar and I am definitely a crusty teacher who makes my students work very hard. At the same time, I sing too, so probably, lol, with some of Lisette the Bard thrown in for good measure, but I wouldn't live in the Bard's college. Totally college of Winterhold for me, so mostly Urag. :D

Akatosh *cough* Talos *cough* :D The Great Dragon, Bormah. Though Dibella and Stendarr were a close second and third. War, love, and more war. :D
