Yet they're the ones making a new flight simulator while everyone was expecting them to stick to the current one and make it better over time for at least 10 years (as Microsoft said)

I mean I'm a fan of elder scrolls. What's going to happen it its development cycle?
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?
By the time TES6 comes out, Lemmy will have it's own controversy and the alternative Redmee will be the new site.

Yeah, it's more like 8 years now.
If games will take so long to create, we will probably also see price increases. They will have to fund that development time in some way. I think I do prefer the games like Skyrim where they did take their time to develop the whole world with a broad storyline and many small things that you can do, instead of rushing out a game in a year or two that has no replay value after playing the main story once.

Sounds like Microsoft is about to find out the hard way.
