    The Elder Scrolls series, flaws and all, is generally better about applying magic to its world-building.

    For the most part its worldbuilding is like the one thing The Elder Scrolls actually did really well (that and Morrowind’s aesthetic/art direction), at least in terms of the lore. Where it fails is translating that intricate, weird, well-thought-out worldbuilding into gameplay and storytelling.

      And the Elder Scrolls series still has a gold inflation problem where gold itself is basically a non-precious metal and it’s like everyone’s carrying massive piles of pennies in their pockets if currency counts are taken literally.
