Gaming News You’ve been missing hidden quests for over 10 years, but this essential RPG still holds many secrets
Sometimes games continue to surprise us even after several years, and that’s the case with this essential RPG.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an iconic and essential game for RPG fans. Released on November 11, 2011, the title continues to surprise players who decide to travel the lands of Skyrim. The objectives are numerous and it is impossible (apart from the mods of course) to quantify the number of tasks to be completed or the percentage that remains to be completed. And more than 10 years later, the game reveals new secrets with the discovery of quests that many have missed.

The Eastern Company and a ransom
Players have asked a question on a Reddit page dedicated to Skyrim “If someone thinks they have 100% completed the game, what dark quests might they have missed?”. Two stand out more than the others. The first is called “Rise in the East” and is a secondary mission that allows the Dragonborn to help the Eastern Empire Company. The group is repeatedly attacked by pirates called the Blood Horchers and has difficulty maintaining their positions in the city of Windhelm. Orthos Endario, director of the company’s city offices, asks you to investigate these privateers. In the post, many agree that they didn’t know this quest existed until today. A security guard can still direct you on the platform at the entrance to the docks.
The second is called “Kidnapped for Ransom,” in which your spouse is kidnapped in exchange for a ransom.. You return home, no longer find your better half and the bandits demand 5,000 coins for their release. You can of course pay or let them try your blade and come to their aid. An addition to the Heartfire DLC from 2012. These are examples, but there are certainly still many quests to discover in Skyrim, which is still selling and doing so after so many years exceeded 60 million copies sold in June 2023.
After more than 10 years, Bethesda’s flagship game refuses to retire and continues to be at the center of the news. This is also due to the release of numerous versions on all current consoles, each with its own peculiarities.. Most notable is the Special Edition, released five years after Skyrim’s release and later supplemented by the Anniversary Update. The focus is on graphics, improved effects and the three DLCs, but above all it allowed the official launch of the mods on the console. The game will be released simultaneously on Switch with a quite successful port, new controls with joycons and the ability to put on Link’s tunic from Breath of the Wild and swing the master sword. Also note the release of a VR version that offers a completely new experience in the lands of Skyrim. It is clear that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has not yet completely surprised us, and that’s a good thing, because that’s what we need at least while we wait for the release of the sixth work, which is coming soon… for a long time ..
