The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

StreamerHouse witnessed 472 peak viewers lose themselves in the frozen landscapes of Skyrim throughout 2022, nearly a decade after the game's original 2011 launch. By this point, the Special Edition had been out for years, bringing enhanced graphics and mod support to consoles, but the appeal remained timeless: dragons, shouts, and an open world that let you ignore the main quest for 100 hours straight. The streams captured that quintessential Skyrim experience where someone starts a new character swearing they'll finally do a mage playthrough, only to end up as a stealth archer by hour three. With countless re-releases becoming a gaming meme, StreamerHouse's 2022 audience proved that no matter how many times Todd Howard re-sold us Skyrim, we'd keep coming back to climb those seven thousand steps.
