In reality, The Elder Scrolls 6 is at least five years away, and probably more. Not sure about The Elder Scrolls 16, though.

The Verge also jotted down a couple instances of PC gaming-related bewilderment during the hearing. At one point today, the FTC reportedly struggled to articulate to Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley that not every PC has the capabilities of a gaming PC. A funny exchange along similar lines occurred on June 27 when, as The Verge's Tom Warren reports it, Judge Corley interrupted the FTC to ask why people don't just play games on PC, since they can also use a PC for work. If you ask us, the judge is onto something with that one.

I can't believe what a trainwreck this whole thing has been so far. These people represent billion-dollar industries and are probably paid more in a month than I make in a decade and this is what it comes down to? Like I get accidentally saying "TES 16" instead of "TES 6" but as the article says even that is just outright wrong and a lie since TES 6 not only doesn't have a release date, they specifically said it is at least 5 years away - they don't even know what platform it's gonna get released on that far in the future. It's just a bunch of clowns up there, aint it?

For the same reason you don't enter your commuter car into an F1 race. Technically both could do it, but one is going to get the job done a lot better than the other

More akin to entering a commuter car in your kid’s soapbox derby

If anything, more like why you don't use an F1 car to commute to work. You don't need a gaming PC for many jobs, but they can get it done just as well.
