They both suck. That's something in common, I suppose.

DOVAHKHIIN! Take down that Dragon with your tactical dagger!

...Huh. Actually I could go for that. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KR2Esy83MQ0]

Yo newwiseman lemme know when your mod is ready.

Guys, I figured it out!

Look at this:

Spoiler: Skyrim

Using a bow in first person

Shooting fire in first person

Spoiler: Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

using a bow in first person

Shooting fire in first person

Don't you see - they are clearly the same game. And since Dark Messiah uses the Source engine, and Half-Life 2 also uses the source engine - Skyrim is clearly related to HL2.

But wait, there is more. Day of Defeat is a mod for HL that portrays soldiers in WW2. And this is the exact same as Call of Duty!

Oh my god, it all makes sense now! TC was correct. Skyrim is Call of Duty.

I find this hilarious because I'm installing Dark Messiah right now.

No matter what you relate Skyrim with, it's still an amazing game and I know for a fact Bethesda poured their souls into the very game

Are you saying they worked hard on the game? Or are you suggesting some kind of Lord of the Rings scenario? Because I can totally picture Todd Howard standing in a volcano, pouring all his malice and hate into the game disc.

Wow. So, im trolling because i think skyrim is nothing more than a magical fps, or am i accused of trolling because you dont accept that someone isnt a fan of it. Considering the jerkoff responses, its safe to say none of you can remove the head from your donkey. Anyway, i do appreciate those who explained why you think its not like an fps, thanks for understanding and not being dbags.

No people think your trolling because you said that it was just Cod but with swords and magic instead of guns. Usaully the only people who visit the forums on this site have a understanding of game genres and the difference between them.

You demonstrated a clear lack of this understanding that people find hard to believe, it's simply more likely that you are trolling, some which I am inclined to believe.

What, I dont even, I cant understand, WHAT?

They're both in first person, with fully voiced characters, thats as far as the similarities go/

And seriously WHAT??

 

[GiantRaven]

Whilst they share little in terms of setting and mechanics, I do feel that Skyrim is to RPGs as Call of Duty is to the FPS - an incredibly well made cinematic experience aimed at the widest possible audience. That isn't intended as a criticism if it sounds like one.

Following this logic.

Masturbation and gaming are alike. I sit on my arse and use my hands to do both.

Ok, so I finally played skyrim. "Its the best game ever" they said. I've played, back in the day, quake, and doom. I also happened to have played 'heretic', which is basically the same game but with magic. My question is this: Skyrim seemed a lot like bioshock to me, which in turn isnt all THAT different from another fps; isnt skyrim just call of duty for fantasy guys? I mean, obviously the content cant be compared but gameplay...its pretty much a shooter to me when it comes down to it. Thoughts?

Skyrim is the RPG equivalent of COD. A style over substance blockbuster.

I never played it in 1st person, actually. I want to see my customized and equipped character do stuff.

Seeing that I'm taking the sneaky route, I find it plays a lot like Thief or Splinter Cell.

I suppose you could play it like some sort of very untraditional FPS if you played only in FP and used only bows and magic, which behave very different from the usual realistic firearms you see in so many FLS' these days.
