Elder Scrollys V:Skyrim Review

One thing I can say about this game is that it is incredibly addictive.  To be honest I didn't even want to stop playing to write this review.  Of course if you already didn't know Skyrim is an RPG, and a very good one at that.  If your already familiar with the series you don't need me to tell you that there is always something to keep you busy.  Its almost comparable to World of Warcraft or Everquest(always something to do) Even
side quest become important, what you do today might hurt you tomorrow kinda deal.

To be quit honest I havnt found a good RPG to play since Fallout and this one seems to win over all of them.   The leveling system is what I like...instead of ranking up a (ex. mage )and unlocking their type of weaopons your are givin a choice to choose who you play with and what type of weapon you want to use.  These weapons do not have a predetermined carachter. 

In my opinion the best part of the game is the magic or enchantment.  A wide variety of spells you can use and also rank up for a more devastating attack.  85 DIFFERENT SPELLS!  Even the new layout for spells is more comprehensive and less cluttered making it easy to stomp down your opponent if you have the right spell.

Both arms are controlled by both triggers..meaning on the left side/left trigger you will contoll your shield and on the right side/right trigger you will be able to use your weapon.  This creates a more interesting battle ground also making Melee/blocking an important part of the game.


3D mappin is also quite crisp for being an RPG...These games have definatly come a long way since Diablo.  Now back to playing!!!
