RPGFan: November has certainly seen some great releases. Of course, there's the eight-hundred pound gorilla, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim with its colossal world and massive scale. On the other end of the spectrum, there's indie darling To the Moon and its unforgettable tale of a dying man's final moments. There's also a little release from Nintendo that you may have heard of.
As The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered takes up 125GB, original designer Bruce Nesmith recalls fitting Skyrim into a tiny file size.
Skyrim is still my favorite ES game. I’m playing through it again right now since I never finished it.
Morrowind is by far my favorite. But I’m getting old and played Daggerfall Morrowind and Oblivion before Skyrim
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.
I agree, I found it an interesting game. But nowhere near worth the hype (unless you include mods)
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
We should leave Obsidian alone. Bethesda on the other hand should be kept under constant psychiatric observation.
Big Bethesda Nintendo Switch eShop sale now live with lowest prices ever for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Doom (2016), and more.
WTH an RPG game of the Month?? Fanboys trying to validate Skyward Sword so sad....doesn't matter SKYRIM will get Game of the Year easily...nice try Zelda
It doesn't matter if Zelda is an RPG or not, it's just that good.
Well, they DID say game of the month. Just because it's RPGFan doesn't mean some other genre can't be preferred for a month.
