Over 14 years have now passed since Bethesda Game Studios released its monumental Elder Scrolls gem, Skyrim, but fans are still finding new ways to enjoy the smash hit RPG in 2025 – including by working their real-life jobs within Tamriel, apparently. "There are no office buildings in Skyrim," after all, but there are plenty of nice campsites to work at while taking in the ambience of Tamriel. After settling in one, habie147 pulls up what looks to be a browser tab – work email, Slack, and all – and outlines his "main quest" while working from within Skyrim: to not get fired, schedule marketing emails, engage in "random QuickBooks shenanigans," finish a PowerPoint, and "farm contact information." "I don't know why I subject myself to this level of torture": Oblivion Remastered player spends 100 hours spamming the RPG's most basic spell in the sewers, all to achieve a goal they set themselves as a child Skyrim's longevity shocked Bethesda devs as the RPG was thriving "still, ten years later" thanks to its unique open world: "By all rights, a year later, some other game should have eclipsed it" Ex Skyrim lead says Bethesda never "even tried to put a bucket on anyone's head" during development, setting players up for one of the most iconic exploits in RPG history Everything goes well until a bandit pulls up. "The mugging was not ideal, but other than that, it is a great place to work." For his next outdoor office space, habie147 picks… the middle of a creek, with a literal dragon flying above his head. "So," he says, "I figured, okay, I've got to get somewhere where nothing random can spawn in. Something completely off the grid. And I thought the best place for that would be underground." He heads to my favorite spot then: Blackreach. For a while, everything goes smoothly – in fact, it does for a couple of hours. "I farmed 55 email addresses. I finished my PowerPoint presentation. I talked with my co-workers about stuff. The ancient dwarves of Skyrim left behind the best huddle room ever." But, as is reasonable with the background noise, "after two hours down there, I did begin to lose my mind." I agree with habie147, honestly. I would genuinely love to work my own 9-5 while sitting in The Bannered Mare or chilling at the Evergreen Grove – but I do think the headset would get a bit annoying… and maybe sort of sweaty, too. Elder Scrolls 6 fans yearn for news as Skyrim turns 14, instead get Todd Howard saying it's "still a long way off" despite being announced 7 years ago: "Bethesda has had us hanging by a thread"
