    Games take time…

    I’m hopeful. I’m sure I’ll get downvoted to help cus how dare I enjoy things, bit I’ve had fun with all their games. Even star field. It was a departure and an attempt at someone new. I still put on over a hundred hours on it. The ship builder was awesome and the ships themselves were super cool too.

    Skyrim is still my 3rd most played game. And I’m pretty sure fallout is up there too.

        I dunno what this has to do with anyone I said. It’s also not true?

        Like Prey took 11 years. FF15 took 10 years.

        Why does it even matter that it’s been 13 years since Skyrim released? They wouldn’t immediately start development on ES6.

      You’re 100% allowed to just enjoy it and not worry about the drama. That said, we’re looking at the fifteenth year on the horizon with no follow up to Skyrim.

      A “AAA” studio taking fifteen years to make a game is unacceptable. Especially when its a game that guarantees massive sales thanks to the IP’s pedigree.

      Bethesda leadership is incompetent.

        Why is it unacceptable?

        Also plenty of games have taken 10years to make or more. And dev on ES6 wouldn’t have started right as Skyrim was done. At least not on full.

        Why does dev time matter anyway?
