Expecting a somewhat bug free experience from Bethesda... also, while games take long nowadays, 12 years isn't a normal amount. Nor is announcing 5 years prior then never speaking of it again... Pretty sure we're past the "modern games take a lot of time to develop" stage by now.

I highly doubt they've been working on it since Skyrim.

I highly doubt they've started working on it now.

They probably have some sort of pre production going on where there's a few concept artists and writers worming on it but yeah I wouldn't expect much more than that.

That's true. Skyrim is like 4 editions in and still has bugs. I definitely don't expect something flawless from Bethesda but I guess I'd still rather wait than it be horrible or put undue stress on the people working on it.

I would definitely agree that announcing it and then going radio silent isn't the way to go. At least give some kind of update as to the progress.
