## Key points

- A fan is making an independent Daggerfall-inspired RPG.
- The project reflects impatience over The Elder Scrolls 6’s delay.
- It aims to revive older Elder Scrolls-style freedom.

## Summary

A Bethesda fan, frustrated by the long wait for The Elder Scrolls 6, has begun developing an independent role-playing game intended to capture the expansive, experimental spirit of The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall. The project illustrates continued fan demand for the older game’s large-scale freedom and deeper role-playing systems while Bethesda’s next mainline Elder Scrolls game remains unreleased.

The developer has described the project as an “Indie Scrolls” game and said they have “great plans” for it, framing it as a personal alternative rather than an official sequel. Its stated inspiration is Daggerfall’s vast, open-ended approach, suggesting an emphasis on player freedom and ambitious world design over modern series conventions.
