Probably GTA6. I never got into Elder Scrolls, it seems like generic Tolkien-derived fantasy to me. I prefer the Dark Fantasy aesthetic like Dark Souls. JMO YMMV.

I love Elder Scrolls games but I feel VALIDATED in my opinion that GTA6 will be far more transformative to gaming than Elder Scrolls 6 - no reason to doubt Rockstar given their history but LJL at having faith in Bethesda these days (IMO/IME!)

I don’t think people are prepared for how Bad an Elder Scrolls 6 will probably be, if it is ever actually made. They will throw lots of money at the “studio” and it will look all high production and everything but something will be missing because there was scant talent or vision involved.
Basically there is an edgelord path (the "Dark Urge") and then a good and evil path with many permutations on each. the game gets criticized for being "woke" but it almost always gives you an option to reject the "woke" stuff
Both game series have become progressively more soulless as complexity and budgets have increased. People are not prepared for how much worse ES6 will be than Starfield and for all the same reasons, just advanced by several more years of atherosclerotic generational decline.
