It’s the interaction above all that’s what makes Skyrim very special, and bearing in mind I only played forty minutes, what I saw was incredible. For example, there was a moment where after chasing an Elk into a village and setting it on fire with a spell, villagers rushed out to aid my character in defeating it, before one woman began to spread rumours that it “flew over the mountain” with other townspeople making various comments as I collected its hide and meat.
There was also another moment that I experienced which really showed off the game’s quality – after noticing a group under attack and aiding them, I spoke to one of them. He tells me I’ve to be on my way, but before I get a chance to he pulls out his axe, runs towards me and then kills a wolf that was about to sneak up on me. I’m aware he might have only been killing the wolf because it was there, but it truly did feel like he was returning a favour, due to the sheer immersion found in Skyrim.
