The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

It's a good game but definitely not an rpg. Imagine a role-playing game where you can be the head of the assassins, thiefs, warriors and mages at the same time.

Pure addiction

Great story? No Great characters? No Can you kill a dragon using a legendary fork that deals 5,288,375 points of damage? Yes, and that makes it the best game, fight me.

This game is the definition of open world.

ES5 Skyrim is an improvement on its predecessor, Oblivion, when it comes to world-building, combat mechanics, alchemy, leveling, and overall immersion. The NPC's are less stiff, the voice-acting far better, and the side-quests more interesting and bountiful. Skyrim is as close to ES3: Morrowind in overall quality as a modern ES is probably going to get.

same as oblivion, but I love this one a bit less than the first one, thus 99

Incredibly mixed on this game its simultaneously one of the best games ever and mediocre which balances out to an average rating. Cookie cutter dungeons abound but also engaged me for hundreds of hours and had some great sidequests. In retrospect I can only think of more bad things about it. This game really highlights the flaws of open worlds as opposed to more focused experiences. I'm probably never playing this game ever again

great game.

Ambitious with a sprawling fantasy world into which a lot of thought clearly went. There's literally hundred of hours of content to be explored and experienced. However, it also comes with all the flaws of its Bethesda engine and some of the dungeon crawling can get very samey. Nevertheless, a tour de force of a software.

Not my kinda game, but still alright.
