Whilst Skyrim is still new and many gamers sinking the hours in, it's a harsh reality for any developer to get people to finish the games they have laboured over for years.
Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
A new Partner Spotlight Sale is now live on the Switch eShop, including Skyrim, lowest price ever for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, and more.
I'm one of those people, the game has too much crap to get sidetracked on and then I get burnt out on the boring caves and underground dungeons.
More than half of Skyrim's players won't finish the game... and I'm not surprised. As big as Skyrim is, I have to wonder if that's a blessing in disguise or just an outright hindrance.
After having played Oblivion and sinking hours over months into that game, I know Skyrim is going to be huge, and addictive, thus meaning it cuts into such little time that's otherwise available for other games. On the plus side, a game like Skyrim is great for this reason, as frankly there's no need to buy another game for several months upto a year!
Just blame the new gen of gamers with short attention spans that play shooters all day long that have 2 hour campaigns.
well, i'm not in that category. i'm 96 hours in on my first character at the moment, and not only am i still excited about finishing the game, but i'm already planning what my next character will be like.
I got work n a whole lot of other games to play.
