The problem with Skyrim is that of the vast amounts of stuff there is to do, none of it is rewarding in any way and most of it is almost the same.Gasbandit said:It's not. It's just cool to hate on things that were super popular 2 years ago. Skyrim *is* one of the 10 best RPGs of all time. Did it have its issues? Sure. What game doesn't?CrashBang said:I like Skyrim. I didn't realise that was unusual.
Go to the Draugr Ruin and get my amulet!
Go to the Draugr Ruin and get my drum!
Go to the Draugr Ruin and get my bread!
Go to the Draugr Ruin and get my long lost father's randomly enchanted helmet!
Go to the Draugr Ruin and get my basic Iron Sword that been passed down from generation to generation and has been feeding my family for years!
Go to the Draugr Ruin!
Go to the Draugr Ruin!
Go to the Draugr Ruin!
Go to the Draugr Ruin!
Go to the Draugr Fucking Ruin!
There may as well be a sum total of 2 enemies in the game considering how little you see anything that isn't a Bandit or a Draugr. If they really want to mix it up they send you to a Dwemer Ruin, but that's the only thing they do, then it's right back to Go to the Draugr Ruin!
No amount of mods can fix that. Believe me, I've tried.
I have so many mods that make me long to play Skyrim, I go on it and what is there to do?
Randomly explore? Goes nowhere.
Companions? Go to the Draugr Ruin!
College of Winterhold? Go to the Draugr Ruin!
Main Quest? Go to the Draugr Ruin!
Thieve's Guild is somehow still Go to the Draugr Ruin! ...and if you're joining that guild you're not going to be the type of character that can handle that kind of fight yet.
That laughable afterthought of a Bard Guild? Go to the Draugr Ruin!
I suppose I could go to one of the castle and get some randomly generated quests where I Go to the Cave and kill some Bandits! ...but you don't want to get me started on Go to the Cave and kill some Bandits!
I would love somebody who loves this game to tell me exactly what they think I'm missing, but I'm pretty sure I've done everything there is to do outside of mods I haven't seen and something interesting is yet to happen.
The Dark Brotherhood was OK.
RPG of the decade material? Not by a long shot.
...Especially not in decade that has Dark Souls and Dragon's Dogma in it.
