Honestly I've more been looking forward to Skywind than I have ES6.

I still have hope anyway. Even if the game sucks, if the worldbuilding is good, that's why I love Elder Scrolls and I would play it for that.

I will be shocked if it's good. It'll probably sell very well even if it's shit, because of the brand, but I have low expectations.

I dunno, I feel like anything other than more coming and dragons is going to dip in popularity. The other elder scrolls were never remotely as popular as Skyrim was. And it's been so long, I feel like there won't be as much momentum going into it.

By the time this releases, there will be full grown adults who were born AFTER Skyrim came out.

Is this a typo or a play on how fantastically horny Baldur's Gate 3 was?

That was supposed to say Vikings but somehow my phone whiffed that one hard

If you're on a mobile keyboard typing fast, vik to com isn't a far stretch. Ciming also wants to autocorrect to coming. Voming too. Knowing my own fat-fingered omptecision and frequent mossed keys...

Actually, I'm surprised those last two typos weren't autocorrected. (I could manually select the right suggestion and did correct several others, but decided to leave these in for effect. I'm really bad on mobile.)

Cautiously optimistic for this

I'm really curious to see what their "big new draw" will be for this. I wish I believed it was possible for it to just be "carefully handcrafted content and a level of polish people have come to expect us to lack".

I honestly feel like they're just trying to be too much to too many people.
