Skyrim SE best D&D type of game I've ever played
Wow, thanks Bethesda. This should be the best game of the decade.

It definately isn't D&D, it's barely an RPG (Role playing game), but it bares no resemblence to Dungeons and Dragons at all.

I meant to say, with all these nice creature mods etc, this game feels more like a D&D game compared to anything I've played (Strictly talking about creatures here and maybe some other aspects, like dungeon wandering). And especially when you add in goblins, ogres, giants, trolls, minotaurs, etc...Anyways, I'm outta here, last time I poke my head in here....lol weird people on the internet.

All of the above has little to do with D&D and more to do with general fantasy tropes (which are the D&D connection). It is almost as far as you can get from a D&D game while still being a fantasy RPG ("RPG")

Try playing an actual D&D cRPG some time and you'll understand why people are meeting your utter cluelessness with shock and mild disdain.

Find me a better D&D related game on the market right now that even resembles Skyrim...Even if it's 5% D&D. Haven't found any, thought Witcher 3 was it, but this, with mods, is much better. (FOR ME, this is just MY OPINION). That's all it is forum haters, my opnion, not a fact.

Some people don't really have time to roll dice, some people just want to experience a D&D type of game/world from their couch, with a controller for a few hours every day...Anythign wrong with that?

Divinity Original Sin is a great place to dip your feet into a D&D style cRPG and it's really cheap on sales.

Skyrim is a game caught between action-adventure (Darksiders, Dark Souls, Zelda) and action-RPG (Mass Effect, Risen, Witcher, Fable) and really occupies a small, strange genre of it's own known as "Bethesda RPGs"

Thanks Jouche lol, I'll check it out. Divinity Original Sin that is. Is Dragon's Bane any good? Anyhow too addicted to Skyrim now, just started with the sob!

One of the key features of a cRPG (as defined by D&D rules) is a party or group. D&D rules specifically make it so there is no "Dragonborn" ubermensch to rule the world. D&D rules try hard to make you feel like a speck of dust in the universe, not a dragon-slaying demi-God.

KOTOR is a D&D based cRPG. It actually uses rules right out of the D&D book.

Sci-fi is not excluded from using D&D rules. There are sci-fi table-top adventures.

wtf are you talking about. Skyrim resembles the D&D genre like a rocket launcher resembles a pistol.

moreover, it has nothing to do with opinions if you mix and match genres without knowledge what they stand for.
