The Official Abbreviation for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Post » Sun Feb 13, 2011 10:50 pm

Just as Morrowind became just MW, and Oblivion, OB (actually fallout 3 -> FO3 as well), What are we going to call Skyrim?

SR?

TESV has too many characters for my liking.

"Skyrim"

It's short and easier to type than 'Oblivion'. Man up people.

SK or SY. Latter would be more recognisable as Skyrim, but former will probably come into use. Just like OB vs. OV.
Of course, what people find more recognisable is subjective, so people could be perfectly happy with SK.

Edit: The SR suggested a few posts up would work too.

SR I guess, it sounds the most logical.

But other than abbreviations I agree that Skyrim sounds fine.

We like 2 letters: DF, MW, OB, so SK is most likely. But like it's important.

TESV or Sk eventually, but i'm pretty happy typing Skyrim...

What will be weird is hearing people refer to Skyrim as a game rather than a place in a game.
Heh.
