What is the best way to get into the Elder Scrolls universe?

I would start with Skyrim and then move on to ESO. There are lots of great mods for it too.

I play both elder scrolls online and also Skyrim but I prefer to play Skyrim when I have nothing to do. I only play elder scrolls on my PlayStation because that is where I first started it, when I first got the game I was really into it but over time I just don’t really want to go thro all of those things. When I first got my computer I bought elder scrolls online and when I first started it it said a could link my account and I was very excited about it because I spent a lot of time on my PS4 and I had the other classes unlocked but when I finally managed to link my account it does not let you transfer over any of your data or also character or anything like that. Because of this I did not really want to play the game and just quit playing it on my computer because I did not want to start over.  I love the game Skyrim it is one of the few games I still play on my PlayStation because of how much I love the game. When I first got my computer I immediately thought of Skyrim but I waited a few weeks to actually get the game because I just spent all my money.  When I first started playing Skyrim it was on my PlayStation and it played very well I liked how good my graphics were on my tv but when I played it on my laptop I noticed that it was not as good. I still love to play Skyrim on my laptop but it is not as fun as playing on my computer.

I've been wondering about this myself! I'm very interested in getting into the games.

I started with Skyrim. That led to interest in other games in the universe. 

Skyrim looks to be the most current way to start.

Id say Skyrim as well. Good story and gameplay imo.

I'm no help, i don't play this.
