Some believe the silver lining is that they&#8217;ll have time in their retirement to explore it fully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reality is different, of course, as explained by Bruce Nesmith, one of the designers of &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/the-new-skyrim-is-coming-to-playstation-5-this-is-what-we-know\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Skyrim<\/a>&#8216; who, by the way, no longer works at Bethesda: the reason for releasing the trailer was <strong>to appease toxic fans who had started threatening the studio<\/strong>.

And really, their perspective on the gaming world and hype makes perfect sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Elder Scrolls VI \u2013 Official Announcement Teaser\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OkFdqqyI8y4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The video game industry has a short memory. All those companies that start talking about their games years before releasing them are hurting themselves. <strong>The best time to start talking about them is six months before their release<\/strong>,&#8221; Nesmith said. And truly, seeing the public&#8217;s reaction to delays in &#8216;Beyond Good and Evil 2,&#8217; which was announced in 2008 and apparently will be released in 2024, one has to agree: announcing your games far in advance only leads to frustration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Just the fact that everyone had taken out their torches and tridents led Todd to say, &#8216;Yes, we&#8217;re going to make <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/the-elder-scrolls-6-the-skyrim-sequel-is-already-running-but-you-should-wait-sitting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Elder Scrolls 6<\/a>. I promise, it&#8217;s real, it will happen.&#8217; But he warns us that indeed, <strong>we will only hear about it half a year before it goes on sale<\/strong>.
