Skyrim Anniversary Edition PS5 review - one time too many | Metro

Skyrim is back yet again, with a graphical makeover and new user generated content, but at full price even fans of brazen commercial cynicism will find their eyebrows quietly reaching for the sky.

If you really must play Skyrim in 2021, do it in VR or you're doing it wrong.

SullysCigar1305d ago

Okay, but I'm not getting how that brings anything new to an old game?

Magog1305d ago

Agreed. They would have had to completely remake the graphics like Demon's Souls to make Skyrim relevant again in 2021.(And improve the silly combat system)

Darkborn1305d ago

I agree. I did play the hell out of the game on the ps3, and I purchased it again on psvr. The only thing saving it in VR is how you can swing and shoot spells with your own hands. Even in 2011, I thought the combat was bad especially compared to demons souls, dark souls and later dragons dogma. Like they really need to upgrade their systems.

Profchaos1305d ago

Agree it was the only way I could play it these days otherwise it feels to dated compared to other modern games

Yui_Suzumiya1305d ago

I've never played it but I plan on getting it for Switch someday. What I really want is Fallout 3 Remastered!

Outlawzz1305d ago

I second this. I'm waiting for the new psvr so I can play it with some increased fidelity. I play it on a base ps4 and it's still great tbh

Hasn't even got 60fps as standard. Complete joke of a release.

nmbr1esq1305d ago

Much like GTA Def editions...nothing more than cash grab, and standing on the backs of modders, who did a better job adding upgrades, updating graphics and load times. IMO there was absolutely no need or probably any desire for this edition.

Magog1305d ago

GTA would have been infinitely better off paying a pittance to modder to steal their work instead of giving the job to some low rent mobile port devs that were clearly out of their depth and take no pride in their work.

spoonard1304d ago

Since I couldn't use my PS4 saves in the PS5 version I immediately uninstalled the game. I have no interest in playing the game AGAIN other than to goof off with my super powerful characters.

glennhkboy1298d ago

"Since I couldn't use my PS4 saves in the PS5 version..." this is the "standard feature" of PS5. I thought you would be quite use to this by now.

Viljong1299d ago

What full price? Mine download for free i have the special edition from ps4

I'm Replaying Skyrim (again), and So Should You

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.

I tried, but it's a poorly made game that insults its customers.

lucian229433d ago

nah, only mods make it decent, and even then it's bad, and this is after i modded for at least 3 years

Nittdarko433d ago

Funnily enough, I'm about to play it for the first time in VR with 1000 mods to make the game playable, as is the Bethesda way

This is sad.To think ES6 is a light year away.

AuraAbjure936d ago

At least Bethesda is honest that it will take a while to finish.

I resent Valve's behavior of making HL 2 Ep. 2 and then leaving that cliff hangover be for years, without letting us fans know that game's development is in distress. Years of basically nothing but radio silence... only to find out no proper sequel is even in the works! 😡

AuraAbjure936d ago

Just got into the meat of the game! Level 10, mobbing up on the Mage's Guild. I just discovered the levitating orb in the ancient ruins, nobody knows what it is, so I'm looking for a book that might explain things, but somebody jacked the book 😮

I'm a detective now.
