The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Review

This is a user submitted review by ilai456 on Feb. 14, 2014, 12:16 a.m.

A perfect game IMO, played it a lot and enjoyed playing it over and over again.
There are a lot of bugs/glitches which IMO makes the game funnier.
The UI of the menu is bad for keyboard and mouse but you can get used to it easily.
Skyrim is not "A perfect game", its "The perfect game"

9.5Character Customization

    You are able to fully customize your character- from what race to what color will his hair be.
    You are able to choose your path-if its being a stealthy archer or if you prefer being a two handed sword warrior- you are able to choose it, and add points to this skill tree.
    The skill tree in Skyrim is difrent- you are able to upgrade your ability to do a lot of things including your potionmaking skill, blacksmithing etc.

    • 9.5Skill Tree

        The skill tree allows the player to choose his path as it should be. The difrence is that in TES 5 it also allows the player to upgrade his ability to do other things such as blacksmithing.

      9.5Building, Crafting & Item Customization

        In Skyrim you are able to create and upgrade pretty much every thing you can think of.

        • 9.0Create Items

            You are able to make a lot of stuff which are sometimes very useful.
            The only problem is that no matter how much times youll make the same item, you will always get the exact same resault.

          • 10.0Upgrade/Customize Items

              You are able to enchant in a really cool way and they made the enchantment feel good.

            10.0Gameplay

              The best thing about the game is that you can always find stuff to do.
              Aprox 400 hrs of gameplay is how much you'll play before you'll get bored.
              Its fun to replay, you can start all over again after you finish and play as other class.

              • 10.0Difficulty

                  From easy to Legendary this game offers a lot of options of difficulty.
                  Can't tell that Legendary is passable since I couldn't finish a game on Legendary.

                • 10.0Loot

                    Except of the fact that people will stop and wait while you loot, they made the looting system perfect IMO

                  • 10.0Open World

                      Best open world I have seen so far.
                      So much dungeons to clear and monsters to kill...

                    • 9.5Physics Based

                        The phisics are great tho a giant is not supposed to knock you up in the air for 638338466 meters..

                      • 9.0Puzzles

                          A lot of puzzles in dungeons, at some point they start to be expected.

                        • 10.0Quests

                            Awesome quests for awesome game.

                          • 9.5Twitch / Real Time

                            9.0Graphics

                              Great graphics, I really like the style and the art of the dragons and dungeons.

                              • 9.03D

                                Miscellaneous

                                  • 10.0Moddable

                                      From steam workshop to Skyrim nexus, this game have a huge variety of mods and fixes.

                                    • PC Controller Support

                                        I've played with a controller for a few hours and I have to admit that it was great- although I'm used to keyboard and mouse.

                                      • Steam Trading Cards

                                          I dont really like the emoticons but the backgrounds look really good, the badges look nice and the cards are cool.

                                        Perspective

                                          • Behind/Over The Shoulder

                                            • First Person Perspective

                                                I use the first person option and I really like it.

                                              10.0Replay Value

                                                You will find it fun to play more than once, using a different race and class.
                                                I've finished it a lot of times and its still fun.

                                                          Great story about dragons and killing dragons.

                                                                Conclusion

                                                                In Conclusion, I find TES 5 :Skyrim the best RPG action game ever; it covers up anything you need in a game like this.

                                                                10.0 Overall Score
