GATT’s GamerX: It is on a rare occasion that you come across a turning point in a franchise’s history. I played, but never finished Elder Scrolls III Morrowind, and Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion; Why? Simply because I got bored in the games before the arc was done. Enter The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, a game lauded by many people as one of the finest games in history, and with good reason it is. In fact, playing Skyrim for 130 hours without even knowing that I had been playing that long made me re-think game reviewing as a whole.
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.
Good review.
For the first time,after reading hundreds of reviews,I feel like I need to pick this game.man,you just said the right words.
I didn't write this review, I swear. I you check my history you will see I am a huge Morrowind fan.
I agree with everything except loosing interest in Morrowind. May be he was still to young to appreciate Morrowind. It was a game ahead of it's time.
Great Review , One of the best .
Too many reviews get into all this silly detail and miss the big picture ...... speaking of big . This game has swallowed me whole . I can remember only a handfull of games that have so completely consumed me ...... but not for over 300 hours .......... and even more shocking I have only seen half at most .
Excuse me ...... Click , Whir )) )))))
