If you’re fed up of hearing about how frustrated The Elder Scrolls VI fandom is about its release window, imagine how ticked off they’re feeling.
The anticipation has been building for years, with that sense of excitement slowly fizzling away to naught but annoyance.
Fans want something, anything, to keep them invested in the next chapter of the franchise.

The latest unrest within the fandom comes after a "Bethesda veteran” remarked that the game will struggle to meet expectations, but that it’ll still be “amazing”.
Arguably, this isn’t what anyone wants to hear.
In the words of Redditor Plutuserix, “I think expectations might be lower if there wasn't a 15-20 year gap between releases at this point.”
Fans have been in agreement for months now that the announcement for The Elder Scrolls VI was premature.
This trailer mistake has led to disappointment, anger, and the standards for the new game being set ridiculously high.
Granted, gamers still want to know about teasers and the game’s map, but they also want something official to dissect.
All fans have nat the moment is speculation and their own fears fuelling the conversation.
“I agree with this. I worry they are going to try too much with TES6 and its not going to work,” said justinizer.
To this, someone else remarked how they “don’t trust” Bethesda anymore because of Starfield.
It’s unsurprising then that players are saying to hell with The Elder Scrolls VI and hello to a Bethesda RPG we’ve all been waiting for.
While we wait and wait, there are ways to pass the time, though most involve heading back to Skyrim to check out a hidden room we were never meant to find.
For better or worse, Skyrim is the game that will see us through these dark years of waiting. We just hope more secrets are found so we have enough of a reason to replay.
