But we’re not here to talk about the future. We’re going to be discussing just how successful each game in the franchise has been. Make no mistake—as the years have gone by, The Elder Scrolls has only become more popular. But the series had to start somewhere, and I think it’s interesting to compare the sales figures of each one side-by-side to really hammer home this success story....
