We didn't emerge out of the stone age because we ran out of stones. Its time to be proactive not reactive.

I was so amazed by the graphics when i tried this on my new PC when it was released... All this HDR The game was like a dream come true. A shield, a sword, some fireballs... I downloaded tons of mods, I played the game more than 150 hours but in the end, it became really boring, I was lost in many pointless quests, relations with crappy NPCs. Not enough focus. Fake freedom...

But still many great memories, I can't wait to see the sequel !



10/10

One of the greatest RPGs of all time.

-Supreme depth
-Great character customization
-The best quests and items I've ever seen implemented in a game
-Wonderful mythology
-Beautiful world
-Awesome voice acting
-Best DLC ( not the horse armor, shivering isles)
-Great art
-Hundreds of hours of gameplay
-the list goes on and on
-and on
-and on
-and on
-and on
-and on
-and on
-etc.



8.1 Fantastic and beautiful huge world, improved port for the PS3 (graphics, framerate, extras) and lots of things to do.

Despite improvements running a tad too slow at times, computerized acting performances not convincing (no convincing emotions for example), issues scrolling down inventory lists like for keys, not so good design decisions in places (like for example, stating you have to go back when going off the map instead of providing natural boundaries like mountains or dangerous seas you can't cross, this would be more convincing. Gets repetitive regarding many side quests and encounters.

PS3 vs 360 sales

Can we make a group of random people everygame to look at these claims of disputed scores. It is the only way I can see to make some of the people who complain happy. Just a thought and it might actually be fun

Looks semi good
Doesn't have so many bugs

Boring battle system
Boring world
Boring Plot
You never really feel powerful, pretty idiotic for a RPG.
Boring and stupid dialog
Repetitive.



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.

What do you mean by 'computerized acting performances'? Do u mean the random dialogues between NPCs?

Well about the invisible walls at the map borders, they had to be there cause the world map was set from the first Elder Scrolls game. They can't add new land mass, huge mountains or water.



5.5

+ Lots to do, a real sense of freedom.
+ Large mod community for the PC.

- Voice acting
- Boring and ugly NPCs who love repeating themselves
- Combat is awful
- If all RPGs were like this i'd quit gaming forever.

Great open world, wonderful detail, you can actually watch sunsets! Some brilliant missions, particularly Thief and Assassin.

Weak combat, both melee and magic, the levelling of monsters makes the whole thing feel too 'even' some of the missions are a bit rubbish and the main story feels too cliché (although it has some good missions, too).

Also the third person view is pants - should have been canned and time spent on more missions instead.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
