How many of those sales were at sale prices? Steam had it for $7.50 recently.

Games just don't keep their value for very long any more.

Does it matter? I think its obvious that Skyrim is by far the biggest RPG success story of the 7th gen.

The game took the TES series from good seller, to a monster IP.

Releasing that game in as poor condition as it was is definitely not a success story. Sure for financials, but I will never forget, and Bethesda will never recieve a $60 purchase from me again.

 I glad someone said it. The game was a complete and utter mess, and Bethesda knew about. It didn't even deserve a nomination for game of the month, let alone win it for the year.
