I have yet to delve into the immense, dragon-filled realm ofThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, because I just don’t have another100 hoursfree to spend in a massive Bethesda RPG.

Square Enix never gives a firm release date for patches as the system is constantly in flux, instead preferring to provide windows that are more like (pirate voice)…guidelines. “Early May, mid-June, late-July,” that sort of thing.

It’s horrible and there’s no air and there’s lanternfish and why the hell would anyone in their right mind go there?

But hey, the game is pretty cool, so come win a PS4 key forSunless Sea: Zubmariner Edition!...
