The whole game has no set thing to focus on and thats what makes it great. You can take it in what ever direction you want. leveling up and geting stronger are just a small part of this huge and interactive world. You can litterally spend hundred of hours getting lost in the game.

Gotta say, I was really pleased with this one. The world to explore is HUGEMUNGONORMOUS, with plenty of interesting things to find throughout the world. You earn plenty of weapons with many unique personalities, and the story throughout the game is pretty good, as well. The only issue I had with this game was that the combat was kinda simple or unfair at bits, but those faults alone are easily ignored when you see what the rest of this game has to offer. If you haven't played an RPG, or any Elder Scrolls game for that matter, you should definitely check this game out. Any gamer could find excitement in the region of Skyrim.

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers
Skyrim is a game that many people picked up, even if they were not a fan of the RPG genre before. I found myself playing the game and losing track of time and I know for a fact that I am not the only one. The fifth installment to the elder scrolls franchise is a gorgeous open world experience. On PC you can enhance the gameplay even more by adding gaming mods that are not only legal but free as well. The game does have it's downfalls though including the vast amount of "bugs". The only other downfall that I can think of is , and this drives me INSANE, that there are so few different voices used within the game. You will hear the same male voice , even for main characters, over and over to the point where it made me lose interest after about 100 hours of gameplay time. Nonetheless, if you do not have this title, pick it up!

One of my favorite games, and the fun nearly never ends. So many different ways to play the game and so many different outcomes. Gets hard at times though. Game is even better with Dawnguard due to Vampire Lord and Werewolf forms which make you much more powerful.

Skyrim would probably mean more to any Elder Scrolls fan than it would to a casual gamer, but it's perfect for anyone from both sides. I started playing Bethesda Softworks games in 2009, when I bought a copy of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Fallout 3 shortly after my birthday. It was like a new world was open to me. Long gone were my childhood games such as the random shooters and repetitive bash-em-up's themed on media such as Star Wars and Marvel. Finally, I was granted a new scale of immersion: creating my own story. The only issues I had with the games faded early on, and they were simple things such as every one's face looking ugly, choppy attack mechanisms (specifically on Oblivion), and a not-so-pretty outlook through third-person, which is what I was used to at the time. By the time Skyrim came, I was all but ready to see an updated form of this gameplay-- and I had recieved what I expected. While there may have been a few (rather funny) glitches, which is common stigma associated with Bethesda Softworks, I knew they would be fixed soon enough. And of course, most were. What I loved about Skyrim was that it had improved it's genre, making the action more immersive (and addictive), Pretty-fying everyone's face with extraordinary detail, and improving third person view. In fact, when I first toggled third person POV to see if there were any improvements, I was astounded! It resembled something of nearly cinematic view. By the time Skyrim came out, I became accustomed to Bethesda's first-person POV, and here they were fixing the complaint I had years ago forgotten. Skyrim is also beautiful to look at-- to the point where one can create a character simply to walk around and appreciate the nature (especially since Bethesda is so flexible with the quest-giving: every quest is optional to perform including the main storyline). Skyrim raised the bar in critical areas, which is why I have the game on multiple consoles today. Also, it has a pretty chunky piece of DLC coming out-- "Dawnguard" looks fantastic!

This game is perfect for: hardcore gamers
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a great game that has kept my attention since I first went to the midnight launch and got the game. I have spent at least 300 hours since that cold night in November in the (Probably more harshly cold) land of Skyrim. So let us begin in the area of graphics; TES V has the same engine as its predescessor, Oblivion, but it has been updated QUITE a bit. The races no longer look cartoonish and horrible, they look more realistic; and quite frankly, beautiful. The lushness of the folliage that can be encountered is astounding and it really makes Oblivion look horrible in contrast. I can truthfully say that the game is addicting, and the choices that the player makes will have a effect of the story-line. The game itself, obviously, is set in the Province of Skyrim, which is beset by civil war between the Empire and the Stormcloaks, each of them have been waging war against eachother for a non-descript time, but I assume (from ingame texts and conversations) that it has been going on for a few decades at the very least. One of the more pleasing aspects of TES V, is that it is open world-like Fallout 3, New Vegas, And Oblivion-You dont actually have to do the Storyline immediately, you can just roam about and kill bandits and such. One of the best features of this game is that the Dwemer ruins that were encountered in TES III Morrowind, return in Skyrim! I wont reveal some of the spoilers, but some of them are directly corelated to guild quests! For any Dwemer fan, or just a tourest of the series, the Ruins of the Dwemer are an interesting sight-but they arent safe. Far from it, in fact. I wont go into detail about the enemies, or the dangers, but the ruins are dangerous. Another feature of the game, which should be fairly obvious, is the presence of Dragons in the game, which are the primary antagonists of the people of Skyrim. Included with the dragons, are the presence of Nordic Ruins, which contain many undead creatures that are known as Draugr. They differ in difficulty, depending on the level of the character, but sometimes there are also Dragon priests, which are incredibly powerful in themselves. Skyrim is a interesting place, and a wonderful game. I reccomend it to any gamer who fancies an adventure with elements of RPG in it.
