I never said it was a failure, I quoted Forbes in saying it was a whimper by comparison to Skyrim. It's small potatoes, and doesn't even come into the realm of profitability that Skyrim did. Fallout 4 is going to make it look pathetic, if the predictions are correct, because it's being said that it will outsell Skyrim. And TBH it will keep the awareness of the Elder Scrolls brand up, even as sad as it (ESO) is, so even if it's a loss it still has some value to Zenimax/Bethesda. If it lasts until Elder Scrolls VI comes out, however, I will be surprised. And they would be stupid not to have a TESVI, it's their most profitable franchise to date, even if Fo4 is on course to blow that out of the water.
