'The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim' Director Reflects On Roleplaying Epic's Hits and Misses

The one that launched a thousand listicles with wonky names like "SkyUI" or "Moonpath to Elsweyr." That had an awkward cameo on a show your parents (and probably their parents) watch. You know, the thing you've been playing since its launch back in 2011 through what, last week? The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim Special Edition is upon us. Bethesda's improbably popular roleplaying opus--it's sold north of 20 million copies to date--has been visually remastered to look like the sort of thing you might buy new in 2016. You can play it on PC, PlayStation 4 or Xbox One as of Oct. 28.
