By the time TES6 comes out, Lemmy will have it's own controversy and the alternative Redmee will be the new site.

I guess Bethesda is banking on there being more Bethesda RPG fans than TES specific fans. Bethesda in space is coming this year, after all. Which is good in a way IMO, because it keeps things somewhat fresh.

I mean if it got to 9 years between games, that eould be a big improvement for TES. Skyrim came out in 2011.

Exactly. What's going to happen? 30 yr dev cycles?
