Seriously...why do reviewers just overlook the major problems it has?...There are clear and epic flaws this game has. Lets see, bugs.....game stopping bugs. This game has some bad ones. If New Vegas can get ripped to shreds by reviewers because of bugs, why can't Skyrim? Its still broken. Writing.....wow, the writing in Skyrim is actually WORSE than Oblivion an dthe main story is WORSE. Bethesda has some really crappy writers. Really the Civil War is an epic fail as their is no depth in the conflict past "oh they don't let us worship Talos vs Nord suprmacy." The guild quests managed to be worse than Oblivion as well. In Oblivion, Dark Brotherhood was memorable, they are a joke in Skyrim. The ONLY quests that are better written is Skyrim are the Daedric Quests and some of the side quests. And really, the characters suck as well too. Not asking for Mass Effect quality, but at least have New Vegas quality. The leveling system SUCKS...take a hint Bethesda, it doesn't work. Why the hell can I not enter a dangerous area with high level monsters to get a high level weapon? Because of the idiot system where monsters level up to you. This takes away consquence to advance choice....and it is choice WITHOUT consquence. Seriosuly only Giants are a threat to a low level player. And Bethesda should have realized the superiority of New Vegas's system...in that their is no level scaling (maybe except the DLC). If you go to a Deathclaw layer at Level 3, you die...but at least your allowed to go into that area. At least you are allowed a high level weapon if you pick one up instead of the idiotic scaling the Elder Scrolls have. Then there is the grinding...I am actually GRINDING IN A WRPG!!!! Wow. Nevermind that the XP system in Fallout kills the Elder Scrolls system, and takes the grind out of the game. Hell, I actually am rewarded for doing quests because I get XP....in Skyrim I get something crappy at best...oh neat an outdated sword...wow. Yawn. The enemy variety also sucks...wow. I bet there are less monster types than Oblivion. Nevermind most of the dungeons have the exact same problem as before...they all look the same, especially the Burrows. Hell if they are going to look the same, at least make them have a unique feature... And really, the game hasn't improved very much over Oblivion, thats the biggest flaw an dreally the only things going for it is the scenary, the sounds, and the music. And now that its critically acclaimed, has ton of GOTY awards, and may very well be the best selling RPG ever.....FFVII loses its throne to Skyrim as the most overrated RPG ever made.

No, it is not..... The Witcher 2 EE has a fantastic story and characters which Skyrim lacks.

New Vegas had scale too, but it also had stronger narratives with the scale.

Everything about that post is wrong. Or just opinion. Either way it deserves the praise it gets. Never had a game breaking bug while I played (starting from release)

I agree, it's a very overrated game. It's just oblivion with nicer graphics and dragons.

Most of the bugs and flaws in Oblivion weren't fixed. The only noticeable improvement was the physics.

Morrowind was a noteable leap forward after Daggerfall and Oblivion was a noteable leap Foward after Morrowind. Skyrim isn't that much of an improvement. It feels like practically the same game as Oblivion. That's why it's not worth the purchase.

Yeah, pretty damn overrated. I can look past a good chunk of the flaws but the numerous bugs and repetitive dungeon/cave design really hurts the experience for me.

Well, new Vegas is better than anything and everything so you have a point there, but you're a Mass Effect fan and what Skyrim does wrong so does Mass Effect.

Glitches? Check.

Bad animation? Check.

Weak Combat? Check.

Not to mention the fact that at least Skyrim has fun exploration, variety in gameplay, and some RPG mechanics, three things Ferris Buellered in Mass Effect.

Kingdoms of Amalur has a huge map, limitless sidequests, better visuals on consoles, runs very well on consoles, and has a dramatically better combat system, but KoA got 7 and 8s and Skyrim got 9s and 10s.

I dont understand it.

KoA is also a total cakewalk with incredibly boring sidequests and level design and no atmosphere or identity.

Glitches, but no plot stoppers. Weak combat, not weak in 3. Weak in ME1? yes...but improved in later games. And Skyrim had from from variety in gameplay.
