Ok so I have had the game since its release and just never said anything officially to bethesda or the games community about it.

I was introduced to the game by a couple friends. They told me it was the best RPG they had ever played and I just had to try it out. So I got the game when my system was shall we say... less capable. I fell in love with the game right away, I upgraded my system as soon as I could and soon I was playing constantly lol.

I had never heard of ELDER SCROLLS till I was introduced to this game and from that point I also got into oblivion which I play every so often. By far tho I am extremely impressed with SKYRIM!!

I took part as a beta tester for ESO but was not at all impressed with it. I get that its online so its hard to make it SKYRIM like I guess. But I did give it a good go. Looking forward to number 6 single player with a multi player coop option if you guys get into that.

Keep up the great work guys!!!!

Cool. Enjoy your game, brah.

Skyrim was undoubtedly the thing I have anticipated the most so far in my life when it was announced.
I had 'learned' of The Elder Scrolls when my brother brought home Morrowind to play on the Xbox (which at that point I had no interest in). And then he brought Oblivion not too long after. I'd watch him play, but I was skeptical that I'd enjoy it.
It was around 2009 or 2010 at the time, and when I finally made myself try out Oblivion, you could say I was hooked from that moment. What made me love the game was just the little things, something I almost found revolutionary compared to the games I had been playing before; things like simply climbing a mountain you saw in the distance, being able to see the Imperial City from that mountain, objects that weren't glued to the tables, including every book on the Bookshelf not only being able to be moved, but able to be read with each book having completely different information about the fantasy world.
It wasn't until a long while before the thought came to my head "Is there a newer game to this series?", in-turn me looking it up to see the announcement trailer of Skyrim, for which I had obsessed about since then.

The Elder Scrolls franchise is the best game franchise I know. I absolutely love it and it was Oblivion that got me hooked. And it is really the simple thing that gets you: go anywhere, do anything and then rip the consequences. That is why I want to see re-mastered versions of all the games with major graphic updates as well as conversion of ESO to solo play.

I got hooked on Oblivion, & then along came Skyrim...

It's like telling your spouse that you're no longer addicted to morphine, now you have heroin.

Vvardenfeel, Cyrodiil and Skyrim have been my virtual second homes for over 12 years now. No other video games come close to the Elder Scrolls in my affections.
