10 Infuriating Video Game Mysteries FINALLY Resolved Years Later

A great story doesn't tell everything to its audience, which is why so many amazing video game titles come with a fair share of unanswered mysteries that pique the curiosity of their fans and make them obsessed with trying to answer them.

In most cases, no matter how many theories and deep dives dedicated players throw at such secrets, they remain an unfinished page in the game's story. However, there are some rare mysteries that eventually get a definitive answer... years after the game was released.

Yes, we can resolve even the most impossible mysteries, but it may take some time to find the answer.

Sometimes due to the direct response by the developers, and sometimes due to the players discovering a hidden clue, the burning question that gnaws at obsessed fans' brains is finally answered, and their agonizingly long wait for the truth can finally be over.

This kind of situation is usually a grand moment within the game's community that is met with excitement or perhaps a little bit of disappointment at the fact that the answer was simpler than everyone thought.

Either way, if you ever wondered about the following mysteries, your thirst for answers can finally be quenched!

Despite being well over a decade old, Skyrim is still filled with mysteries that the fans just can't get an answer to.

One of these unanswered questions is the matter of the contract on one of the people that you have to kill during your initiation into the Dark Brotherhood.

There are three potential victims: the cowardly mercenary Fultheim, the angry housewife Alea, and the Khajiit thief named Vasha. Each kidnapped person can tell you why someone would want them dead, but aside from that, the game doesn't give you any more insight as to who has the Brotherhood contract.

Over the years, the fans have made plenty of guesses as to "who dunnit," even going as far as to suggest that all kidnappees have the contract or that there is no contract at all.

However, it turns out that the game does give you a pretty definitive clue as to who your target is.

Some of Skyrim's fans have figured out that if you use the Clairvoyance spell with the initiation quest active, the magic will point to Vasha, meaning that he is secretly the right target.

So if you aim to spill blood the right way, the cocky Khajiit is your (dead) man!
