User blog:Carinth/Copy?

I've always been a big free rome rpg type of gameplayer. My favorite gameseries being the Gothic series. Abit older but still quite enjoyable. The funny thing is as I started watching clips and going over screenshots of the new Elder Scrolls, it seemed almost identical in many locations. Could this just be a copy of the third Gothic? I don't wanna start anything, cause I know how Bethesda likes to sue, but I will say it makes me curious.
