is skyrim a good game?
So it is 20 dollars. I never played this game before. I heard many things about this game. Is it worth it?

Worth is subjective.

never looked up reviews or game play?

if you like open world adventures yes, if you've played a fallout game (which you have, even though you blocked your game list) then you'll like it, modding makes it even better, well except falling for beths paid mods nonsense.

you can try the game anyway if you dont like it refund, but for £20 its a steal, oldrim more of a steal though

$20.00 for SE, yes it is. However, if you purchase it, play it vanilla for awhile before starting to mod. That way you will have a better idea of what you want to add to the game to make it even better.

So you waited until the game cost $20 before you wanted to buy it? Wasn't it worth anything to you before? Do you seriously have to ask people from a Skyrim forum (Oh, I'm sure the opinions aren't absolutely subjective...) if the game is "worth it"?

Counterquestion: is Manhunt or Silent Hill worth something to me? I don't know; they're on sale right now.

Can't you say? That's right. You have no idea what I like. Or what I think.

So I'll just tell you this: I'm worth the money. Both the 60 dollars for the release and the full price of the Special Edition. Because I loved the predecessor (release 2011 - why do you even have to ask?).

It is a very good game and it is very well worth it.

BUT we know nothing about you. You might like it you might not. It might be worth your time or it might not. That's all up to you and what you want in a game.

Do you like quest based RPGs? I hate quests. Ive given Skyrim a try multiple times. Just can't get into it. I prefer linear games, or open world games with completely organic gameplay. I simply do not enjoy this attempt a the best of both worlds. But id easily reccomend this game to anyone that enjoys this kind of game.

Not an open world adventure. The main game loop is quests. Adventure games are completely organic. More Subnautica not quite skyrim.

yes it is.. open world means i can go anywhere, you dont have to follow the main quest if i dont want to and you can get quests from other places / people, plus all beth rpg type games are "quests" like botw is an open world QUEST adventure as is fallout 3 / NV / 4 etc.etc to name a few.

For what it's worth, I had hundreds of hours into Skyrim Legendary Edition on the PS3, and I'm planning on buying this tonight, even though I won't be able to play it for quite some time.

Medieval sword & sorcery in an original world. Follow the quests, ignore the quests, play however you want. Warrior, mage, rogue, all of the above. It's a game you can just piss around in for years and still occasionally find things you've never seen before. Or you can go completionist, tackling every quest and side quest in a pretty sizeable game world.

All in all, it depends on what kind of games you like. If it sounds like this fits the bill, give it a try. If not, then you'll know that better than any of us will.

Side note: If you also like Fallout, you can get this bundled with Fallout 4 GOTY edition during the sale and save ten bucks. That's what I'm doing. Hope all that helps.

If you like games like of God of war, Dante's Inferno etc then you will love skyrim.
When i first saw it back in 2016 i didnt like it (because roomate had it on some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ i3 laptop and it looked god aweful...iw ent back to my halo and NFS racing), years later i built my first PC and decided to buy it and now its one of my top 3 favorite games.

Oh, cool. Didn't know that. So that would mean if I like games like Doom and The Sims I would like Fallout 4?

Your logic makes perfect sense.
