You/Me/Minotaur Make Three |02| The Elder Scrolls: Arena [DosBox]
After my epic 6.5 hour stream, I finally ran into the very first technical issues we've experienced so far. You know what? I thought we'd be seeing Arena itself take a dump, but that only happened a few times right near the end. This has a more stable time running than Daggerfall ever did, even without the millions of patches I used to run with it! Now we're one spear piece down, let us locate the next one at LABARYNTHIAN in Skyrim (yes, that Skyrim).

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.
