I was thinking...
Skyrim is like an A+ essay as in thesis, novelty, and contents.....with occasional grammatical errors in it...
Does that make sense??
You're reading this otherwise an A+ paper, but there are some grammatical errors that throw you off.
No?

?

Wait, wha? Are you talking about a few gramatical errors in game? Because that's nothing more than what you can expect. Its a HUGE game, with so much text, items, talk and locations that it would be impossible to make sure there's no errors.


Or are you being 100% random?

No, I think he mean that the bugs, balancing issues and the interface are the 'grammatical errors'.

more like an B
an otherwise perfect essay ruined by some parts that make no sence at all

the fact that they [censored] up things worse then before the patch is kinda [censored]

its a metaphor the a+ things about the essay are the features grammar things are just minor things that aren't so great but its still great with them

He wasn't being literal, guys.

By this reasoning, everything is an A+ essay once you remove the flaws

Unless by grammatical errors you really only mean bugs and other minor issues, if that's the case then Skyrim most definitely isn't an A+ without them

No. It's not A+ material.

If you want to put it like that... For me Skyrim is a B with an negative tendency.

To be honest I think it's kind of the opposite. It's like an essay that uses good grammar, is well-written, and cites a lot of information, but struggles in actually trying to make a larger point.

I agree with the op. It's an anology for those who took it too literally, haha.

I pretty much agree with your simile, though I'd use a slightly different one:

Skyrim is like a great novel, where the publishers have left one or two of the pages uncut. To assert that the novel is not great because of little technical errors is trivial and ridiculous.

I'd also observe that the fact that many of the replies to this topic failed to identify an obvious simile speaks volumes about how seriously Bethesda should treat the views expressed on this forum.

That was a bad simile and you should feel bad.
