I just realised the other day, that with the common definition that retro is older than the last two generations, Skyrim's original release is retro as it was a PS3 game originally....
Arena released in 1994.
Daggerfall 2 years later in 1996.
Morrowind in 2002, 6 years later.
Then Oblivion came in 2006, 4 years.
Skyrim was 2011, 5 years.
Now 12 years later, all we got is a 5 year old trailer and Todd once telling us they where still thinking aboht the setting.
Just let that sink in...
Elder Scrolls Online must still be generating a decent amount of income.
But that's made by Zenimax Online. Outside of Bethesda handing over lore to use, they have nothing to do with that...
Point is more about how long Todd has just sat there by now living of Skyrim's fame and rereleases...
