Somehow never got around to play this game

[Haris]

Huge rpg fan
should I get this 5 years later?

[Simple Man]

Sure?

[Peter Muskrat]

combat is terrible, its barely passable as an RPG. the one redeeming factor it has is its open world-ness. i wouldn't recommend despite having 300 hours of play time lol
*should also probably note how lazily they put the game together considering how terribly broken it is.

[Nit Draws]

DUDE BUY THIS GAME! Its cheap and a great a game. There are massive amount of mods that up the graphics and so on.

Absolutely! It is the standard by which all open world fantasy RPGs should be judged. Jams is obviously an idiot, you should ignore their ridiculous, and, just plain WRONG comment.

[Serious Armadillo]

Totally. It's an excellent game and holds up very well.

In other words: Jams has a different opinion than me, therefore they are complete idiots because my opinion is clearly superior to that savage.

yes, my clear intent to make haris not want to purchase this game makes me very stupid and wrong.
i dont mean to come off as douchey or anything but man. i can't believe people are still trying to get others to pay for bethesda games. there's plethoras of reasons why fallout 4 and skyrim are not at all worth the time/money investment..

[Ecronaclon]

i would highly recomend getting the game. some people have different opinions on the game, but i love it. mainly because of the open world that it has, and the story that it takes place in.

I have well over 1,000 hours logged in Skyrim and it's all down to the mods. I'll agree with the above poster who says that the combat is horrible but I hasten to add that this is only for the vanilla game. You can mod the game so easily and there are many complete combat makeovers to choose from.

I usually run with between 100 - 150 mods at a time depending on character type. the modding community just provides all of the free content you could ever want and on this basis alone, I would 100% recommend getting Skyrim and the DLC's. Check out the Skyrim Nexus for an idea of how much you can customize your game by.

Let's be Honest On Xbox or PS3 this game gets boring after like 24 hours but if you buying it on PC then it's a whole new world , with mods
You can add seasons and fix glitches and Creapy armor
Heck you can change all the dragons in the game to Thomas the tank engine .

So as long as you use mods this game is Great

thats one point i'd like to add, if a game requires mods to be good then it's not a good game. mods are a third party, fan made addition.

This is incredibly wrong on every point.


Ont: Yes, op, get it. It's even better now than it was in 2011, due to mods etc.

[sanjuro21]

Listen, if you have a good rig which can support some SERIOUS modding, you might find yourself having played this game for 5000 hrs. Believe me. Otherwise, no, don't bother.
