Summary
ASkyrimplayer online has made a nostalgic discovery in an antique mall, which harkens back to the game’s release period back in 2011. The discovery of aSkyrimitem in an antique mall could come as sad news to any gamers who remember its launch like it was yesterday.
Next month,Skyrimwill celebrate its 13th anniversary. It remains one of the most popular RPGs ever released, and thanks to a dedicated modding community, it continues to retain a strong player base to this day. Gamers are always searching for thebest open-world RPGs likeSkyrim, seeking to capture the feeling of first exploring Bethesda’s legendary title. The fact that the studio has yet to release a sequel also contributes to its ongoing popularity. When the Bethesda formula is at its best, there’s nothing quite like it.
Redditor NightofHunter posted an image of their nostalgic discovery, after finding a statue of the Dragonborn at their local antique mall in Lowell, Massachusetts. These statues ofSkyrim’s Dragonbornhave been in circulation ever since the marketing of the game was in full swing back in 2011, and many might remember seeing them pop up in their own local game stores back in the day. Nowadays, they’re a little harder to come by, as very few people have space in their home for a towering statue in their home. In this instance, NightofHunter didn’t purchase the statue, claiming that “purchasing it was never an option because of its height.”

Sadly, it’s not clear how much the antique store was charging for theSkyrimstatue. When asked about the price, NightofHunter replied, “I didn’t ask because I simply had no way to justify getting it,” which is fair enough. Another user in the thread tracked down several posts from years gone by showing the statue in various locations, posing the hypothetical question of whether it could be the exact same statue. It seems unlikely, but it’s certainly a fun thought.
While it’s cool to see things like this pop up from time to time, the fact thatSkyrimitems can be considered antiques while no sequel has been released is unfathomable. It’s not likeSkyrimwas a niche title - it’s one of the biggest RPGs ever made.The Elder Scrolls 6was confirmed with a vague trailer back in 2018, but little has been heard since. Many feel it was teased too early, and it’s hard to argue against that idea. Hopefully withStarfieldnow largely behind it, Bethesda will be fully focused on finally bringing players back into the world ofThe Elder Scrollsin the near future.
