10 Incredible Video Games The Industry Will NEVER Do (And Why)

I don’t know why this comes into my head, but as any avid fan of Bethesda will know, you spend so much of your time talking to merchants, of all kinds.

We can use either The Elder Scrolls or Fallout series as examples of their various traders or even just memorable characters themselves, considering that’s who you’ll be interacting with. Now, this doesn’t have to be a full-blown, triple-A title, in fact, when I think of it, it’s likely suited for mobile.

Even better than playing as a well-known character such as Moira Brown or Belethor, you could take the role of your own travelling merchant. This way certain RPG elements will remain intact, such as: character customisation, exploration and the choice between smooth talking, stiff bartering or a more aggressive, physical approach.

That way, those who are into the dialogue or travelling of a Bethesda game can have a more focused experience.

Another interesting point to ponder would be how you’d get your wares. Simply by trading with others? Hiring explorers or scavengers?

Maybe even getting your own hands dirty. That's just a wild idea that's always floated around my mind when playing Fallout and The Elder Scrolls. So, if Bethesda want to make it happen, you know where to find me.
