Skyrim, really?
I don’t get all the hype Skyrim is getting, game of the year and shit like that. Sure the world is great and i’m probably just taking it for granted (it’s a given at this point that Bethesda will create a great world) but the writing is just putrid. The main plot is nothingness, it starts cool and you think oh hey something might actually happen then nothing does and it is over. The side quests range from ok to putrid. You can do anything and be anyone. I made an Orc warrior who couldn’t sneak around Helen Keller and had no fucking magic talent whatsoever and yet by the end i’m running both the Thieves and the Mages guild. That’s a spoiler by the way. Every type of guild you join, you someone end up the leader because gosh darn it you are just so amazing. The Dark Brotherhood is such a cool idea but every member’s personality is summed up as “I like killing things, aren’t I evil? Killing is so cool I just love doing it isn’t that dark?” Just fucking garbage.
Good game but no where near anything great. A game you should play but not worth the full price I paid.
