Hello again! I recently started playing Skyrim again in an effort to figure out what about Skyrim makes it the best selling RPG of all time. I don't think 60 million people bought this game on accident... accidents don't account for THAT many people. So I played through Skyrim (and enlisted other family members to play the other Elder Scrolls games) in an effort to figure out --why-- HOW Skyrim became the most replayed role-playing game of all time. Hope you enjoy!
