People will still say it was over-hyped.
No matter how good it is, and I'm hoping for the best, it will definitely be over-hyped.
They advertised it YEARS ago. It's already overhyped.
At this point, the only way Bethesda has in order to avoid ES6 being over-hyped is saying something on the line: "Uh, do you remember that Skyrim game we made decade ago? Well, we're making a sequel... and it's crap"
Not that they will succeed: people will be over-hyped anyway. But it's something they can say and afterwards not being accused of over-hyping their game
Or they could just do a really good job?
At this point people expect the vastity of ES2 with plot density of Baldur's Gate 3: good luck with that.
