If skyrim end up game of the years, its a sad day for gaming. Clearly Bethesda have chose to move for casual players. I feel like someone has gave me Big mac when i ask for sushi.
But sadly this is how video games industry seems to have turn. Place a lot of efforts on the outside (graphics) but less on the inside (gameplay, quest line, etc) My character is lvl 60, so no one here will say that im low lvl who done nothing. I have cleared all the guild quest, except thiefs, done some random explorations, completed all the Misc of everytown but one and went to 60% of the main quest. i spent more then 80hrs, just in case and gives Skyrim a real chance. But nothing, This game doesnt give me any pulse or fun. Neither in the quest, mission that are boring and repititive, neither in random exploration because dungeon and cave are: 1- too linear 2- too small 3- i dont really find anything that make me feel like i found something unique.

So if you guys at Bethesda have really chose to go in casual direction, it is over. After a week a guy on this forum mention that even if Skyrim is not the best, i will buy the next TES and i sadly sayd : yes i will because i like TES. Well i have change my mind. I wont, just like i did for other good series that went to awsome to casual.

To make it clear. Skyrim svck because:
- THE GAME IS EASY

-Repetitive quest line, dungeon

-The Lvl system who give the chance to get 100% for everyskill, kills the idea to try different type of character because i can max everything. the character i choose wont change anything.

-In the same idea. takin out the astrological signs and give the players the chance to switch any time he want with the Magical Stone make no difference in the character creation and uniqueness of my characters + make the games easier. I dont need to think what type of players i want to create cause i can change at ANYTIME!

-the illusion of choice. (Companion- werewolf and more stupid choice like that)

-i used to enjoy decoration in my house with artifact and item, even the town has decoration and they broke the system.........

-plenty of things that we dont care (horse, wood chopping, killing wolf inside that dude house 6 times)

-having 4 different quest in the same cave or dungeon...................


So if you guys are impressed by Skyrim, i feel sorry for you and no matter what crap pepeol will give you, it doesnt matter because you enjoy fast food games.

From a fans of TES ( Daggerfalls, Morrowind, Oblivion)

Wow. How do you put 80 hours into something you don't find enjoyable at all? (and aren't getting paid to do)

I think you might need to see someone for help.

tl;dr didn't enjoy the game and expects everybody else to either agree with him or else they're simply pitiful and can only be a casual gamer.

Wait for the mods mate. It's funny how people forget that Oblivion wasn't any better when it first came out, it had tons of bugs and really didn't have better quests or more content.

"Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?"

Oddball

All those points are valid but don expect anyone to actually argue them they will instead chose the ad hominem route.

Don't wait for the mods. The game is terrible. Go back to Oblivion. The greatest TES ever made. bliviongate:

Yawn..

like i sayd to give skyrim the chance it deserve as iam great fans of TES. i would have no right to complaint if i had play only 10 hours with out exploring every possibility...is that good for you.

You know, if you weren't wrong on every single one of your points, you'd have a pretty good argument.

Oh, also, 0/10 for making your post almost unreadable.

I think most of us remember. Oblivion was just terrible. Thieves and Dark Brotherhood were it's only redeeming qualities.

Great how you speak for every fan of the TES games, I'm sure everyone will agree with you...

Yet another "hardcoe gamer" Telling us how it is. This is so sad.

Do what I did, reinstall Morrowind.

Not really. The point of the game is to have fun. Not some sort of controlled scientific research.

I think you've made it abundantly clear you did not have fun. Why you felt the need to drag it out for 80 hours to 'prove' the point is beyond me. I don't consider your opinion any greater than the guy that quit after 2 hours. You don't enjoy it...move on.

Well. I have many ramblings as well, but I think the dungeons are actually better than they ever were, and that's good.

@edmunt
Funny, did that today. Just getting all the mods again looks like major pain in the ... Lalala...

The quest lines were more :meh: than oblivion though, they really skimped on that part, or didnt think it was that important.
Other stuff he mentioned were

Though the post above mine reminded me; the more interesting dungeons made up for some of the atrocious questlines dungeons were greatly improved over oblivion imo.

u dont find the game fun but u put 80 hrs into it thats a sad waste of time. give me ur copy of the game i will start a collection and take all the copies of skyrim from the ppl who dont like it.

p.s. Skyrim Rocks

Pro tip: Stop ordering sushi at the McDonald's counter

I have greatly enjoyed this game despite its faults.

I love how everyone assumes things like this when people post these types of threads.

The OP is whining a little, but is stating some valid facts. Why is that games nearly 20 years ago actually would evoke emotional responses? They had to have deep storytelling because the graphics were awful. The gameplay also had to be in depth because you could just save and start over, or because of restricted amounts of hard drive space on PCs you could have a 5 gig install. So why is it now when we have pretty much unlimited storage, near life like graphics on top end system that game companies completely dismiss the story of the game. We could have the best of both worlds now, but instead of making a truly great game they only go for the hitting of mass markets to make the most money.

I'm sure you played every RPG game ever made dating all the way back to Atari, and you are perfect and know all and say this game is perfect. People need to stop letting game companies give us these half hearted attempts at games hoping modders will fix their issues and start putting out quality products again. This game will win GOY mainly cause it always does for the most part and that is because people judging it have become to complacent as well. This game could be something so amazing that we would never want to put it down. Yet what it is now is a dungeon crawl that after 2-3 hours in a day tops you feel like you are doing the samething over and over, and NPCs have not reacted different to a single thing you have done since first entering the world.

People post these in hopes the company will notice, but also in games like WoW (where people get flamed hardcoe for these types of posts) Blizzard tells them to post on the forums when they cancel their accounts. They want to know why people are leaving.

Ok. I'm going back to play more Skyrim. Almost a hundred hours and I still have fun. I think I got a really good bang for my buck.

"i spent more then 80hrs, just in case and gives Skyrim a real chance. But nothing, This game doesnt give me any pulse or fun."
No one plays a game for 80 hours without having fun that isn't getting paid to do so

"To make it clear. Skyrim svck because:
- THE GAME IS EASY"
Put it on Master Difficulty, Roleplay and decide not to use smithing or enchanting

"Repetitive quest line, dungeon"
Have you ever played an rpg??

Cool story bro :thumbsup:

since you are a fand of morrowind and oblivion you should know that

1) they are easy too (dying on normal difficulty is a very hard thing to do in morrowind if you dont't fight high level enemies on lvl 1)
2) "illusion of choice" : there was NO choice in morrowind and oblivion either.
3) possibillity to get 100% in every skill : this has to be the most stupid thing i have ever heard. first of all, even if you have 100% at everything, you still don't have all perks. enchanting 100% without perks is nowhere as effective as it is with all perks. in morrowind you could get EVERY skill to 100% without even suffering a SINGLE disadvantage from it. ( the skills you didn't choose took longer, but since there was no limit of how much you could level with trainers this was no problem at all)


i just love how some ppl say everything about skyrim is [censored] and was better in older tes games and take exactly those things as example which DIDN'T change.
