Below's a bit from a <a href="http://www.elderscrolls.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3664&st=180">discussion</a> at <a href="http://www.elderscrolls.com/forums/index.php?act=idx">ElderScrolls Forum</a>: <blockquote>caseylantz: I would like to see a elder scrolls game that is large and open ended like morrowind but has a turn based battle system put in it. You would play it just like morrowind and be able to customize your character like you want but when you see an enemy and come in contact with it you go into a battle where you have option like attack, magic, items and maybe something else. MrSmileyFaceDude (Bethesda Dev): An Elder Scrolls RPG with turn-based combat would be an Elder Scrolls RPG "in name only." FilthyMcNasty: That was for all the Fallout fans out there. MrSmileyFaceDude (Bethesda Dev): Who rule, by the way. Just my way of saying "TES isn't Fallout, Fallout isn't TES" </blockquote> It could be a hint towards Fallout 3 having a turn-based combat, it could be that Fallout fans are so desperate they'll find hints on turn-based combat in fortune cookies. Anyway, perceive the quote above as you wish, after all it doesn't hurt to be optimistic. Source: <a href="www.rpgcodex.com">RPG Codex</a>
