In my very first feature-length documentary/analysis video, I take a look at the best-selling RPG series: The Elder Scrolls, from its humble beginnings in Arena, through #Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion and #Skyrim, as well as the spinoff games: Battlespire, Redguard, The Elder Scrolls Online and even Shadowkey.

I hope you enjoy this complete Elder Scrolls documentary and opinion piece on how the series evolved.
