Finally got around to playing Skyrim

Post by Grudge »

What a boring piece of shit game. I had heard that since the years there a lot of mods are available that could make it much better. So I modded it heavily. It's still a boring piece of shit. The quests especially are a snooze fest. If it's still this bad with mods, then it must have been a real piece of shit on launch.

How the fuck did this game sell so much?

i played it a bunch when it was new and i really don't know why because it really wasn't very good. way too easy to break the game early, the combat is very boring and it's just not a terribly interesting world. ended up losing my save file when my last fatty ps3 bit the dust and never looked back.

I enjoyed the graphics and story line itself but absolutely hated the controls.

Yeah, I think the world setting is great and it looks awesome.
But the game itself is boring as fuck.

Also I hate bethesda. They make games that are broken and stay broken and they completely fucked over Quake Champions and its marketing.

Horrendous combat and dialogue put me off of playing it. Tried several times, but it's just not for me. Same for Oblivion.

Have you seen the glitches though? Some are pretty epic/infamous.

this is a great game but things have moved on, its hard to argue the weaknesses now looking back, they got a pass then.
