The game enthusiasts are divided over *Elden Ring*’s delay but its prolonged development period has fans waiting for more. Bethesda is yet again criticized for the extended time between the release of *The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim* and *Elden Ring*, which was five years longer than initially planned. Fans on Reddit have mocked the company’s decision, with one user stating that if they had known it would take this long, they might not have waited as patiently for a new game.
Now that *Starfield* has been released, some fans hope *Elden Ring* will finally come out soon. The delay has left many disappointment but also keeps expectations high for a new Bethesda title. While the game is still years away, it’s clear that fans are patient—but also ready for something new.
The community’s frustration highlights how Bethesda often pushes back release dates further, leaving fans waiting longer than anticipated. Whether *Elden Ring* will live up to its potential or just become another delay in a long line of games is yet to be seen. But one thing is clear: the wait is making many expect more from Bethesda.
