I was watching "...why Skyrim?" by Razbuten on sloptube this aft and it's so weird that it finally took Starfield for people to realise. Like Fallout 76 wasn't enough, only now are negative things people were first saying about Skyrim in 2012 finally bleeding into mainstream consciousness. It's so wild, like wow they ruined the magic system? The game has worse writing than a PS1 era Mega Man X game??? Skyrim is just shitty Game of Thrones?? Welcome to thirteen years ago!!

Bethesda hasn't made a really good game since 2002, but it'll probably be years before that realisation sinks in.

    I like Skyrim (as well as older Elder Scrolls games) but I'm also basic enough to enjoy most Ubisoft open world games so my opinion should probably legit be discarded

        Yeah, don't get me wrong there are some open world games that even I don't consider worth playing but I enjoy vegging out and liberating portions of a map sometimes, what can I say

          I totally feel that. Its such a soothing experience. Completely mind off - climb viewpoints, go to incons on map, grab collectibles - it's all i want sometimes.

          Not at all proud of my 70 hours in Far Cry 3, which I accrued resetting the map a couple times while playing the game mindlessly and listening to podcasts kril-drained I don't do that shit anymore though, feels bad.

          Skull and Bones was meant to be that, but joke company lmao. I guess they worried it was too far out from core series appeal?

          Also waow-based
