Few things in life are certain. We live in a swirling and unpredictable sea of chaos, with very few solid promises to cling onto as we weather the storm.
Unsurprisingly,The Elder Scrolls VIis one game that fans have been clinging to since it was first announcedfar too long ago. But as time marches on, the ever-widening gap between the RPG’s reveal and its ultimate release date has fans questioning their own mortality.
A quick bit of math confirms it’s been six years since the game was revealed with a very brief teaser that gave nothing away. We also know the game is now in active development. But that’s kind of it.
