#5 Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Coming in at the tail end of the pack is Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. With a whopping modern release date of November 2011, this entry simply waited too long to be first.
Fueled by a cool $40 USD, you too can take arrows to the knee.
#4 Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
With a 5-year head start, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion came out in 2006 to introduce the world to several different portals and the lifelong fulfillment of spending literal days of time jumping in a video game to — you guessed it — become better at jumping in a video game.
#3 – Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
The race to release Morrowind starts to close the gap between entries with a 4 years ahead of its successor, but still fails to come out on top. What it did do though was start to introduce more stellar graphics.
Read on to understand that comment.
#2 – Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall
As the second entry in the series, Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall comes in as #2 just because it came out just 2 years after Arena, making the gap between the games the closest in the entire series and a much closer race than anticipated!
It breathes new life into the dying Microsoft DOS operating system for the 20 people that still play it annually. You can get this absolute banger of a game for free on Steam on a computer near you.
#1 – Elder Scrolls: Arena
Finally we come to the development team that was able to get ahead of the curve and actually release content on time.
As the first entry in the series, Elder Scrolls: Arena really got folks used to the action and extreme roleplaying that became the new staple for modern RPGs back in 1994.
It also introduced us to Minecraft biomes, well before they were actually a thing.
