Machinima: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Review

Machinima: Do you have a job that you care about? Or perhaps a family that loves you? Maybe some life goals or ambitions? If so I can’t, in good faith, recommend that you play The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Not because it’s a bad game, no. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Veterans of Bethesda’s particular flavor of open-world RPGs know all too well their unparalleled ability to suck hours, days, and even weeks away from your real life with their rich and expansive game worlds. And the latest installment reaches new levels of dangerous with improvements so numerous it’s difficult to believe that the previous game, Oblivion, was even part of the same hardware generation.

You're telling me this got the same score as Saints Row the Third? Or the other way around.

Fallout and Skyrim show us that talented developers make great games when you leave them alone

That judicious lack of oversight permeated everything in Bethesda's RPGs, in a positive fashion.

I much prefer a left alone Obsidian and Larian Studios. Bethesda's formula has grown old for me.

Larian hit another level with DOS:2 and then took it even further with BG3. They do high quality work.

Skyrim was a letdown compared to previous games and so was Fallout 4

Kosic23d ago

I agree, I found it an interesting game. But nowhere near worth the hype (unless you include mods)

dmonee23d ago

Skyrim blew my mind when it released. That game took me to the gaming, promisedland. Going back to it when it was updated for the PS5, it felt slightly rough around the edges, but great for its time

TheColbertinator23d ago

We should leave Obsidian alone. Bethesda on the other hand should be kept under constant psychiatric observation.

anast22d ago

Skyrim feels like the game was made in a hurry with a disorganized team.
