Behind The Door, Dripping In Lore |01| The Elder Scrolls: Arena [DosBox]
Last night I got a good look at what this game is all about, although I couldn't even exit the first dungeon. Let's give this the classic Mulligan, shall we? [featuring Snoop Dogg]

Welcome to The Elder Scrolls: Arena—Bethesda’s first swing at greatness, and boy, did they miss... but with style. This isn’t just a game—it’s an act of endurance. A dungeon crawler where every hallway is longer than your weekend, and every map feels like it was designed by a vengeful geometry teacher. The UI fights you. The quests hide from you. But the rats? The rats never miss.
We’re not playing for fun—we’re playing to remind the modern world that even the mighty Elder Scrolls started as a barely-functioning fever dream. This is the birthplace of lore so deep it forgot how to surface. Where “open world” meant “hope you brought snacks,” and the main quest is something you find in a forum thread from 2003.
Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. Let’s overdose.
