It was just an announcement. It is quite normal for huge AAA games to take more than 5 years to develop. Bethesda was and probably is not in full time production for TES 6. But sure time flies very fast and feel old now...

Let's be honest here, it's not even in full production yet, not until Bethesda releases Starfield.

I'm sure Starfield will release in a broken state and require at least a year of patching to be mostly playable, so we'll also have to factor that development time in as well.

The game was still in preproduction when they released that trailer and was still in preproduction 2 years after that trailer. I guess they just released the trailer to get people to stop asking them if they were making es6 or not.
