Skyrim is one of those games that in order to describe it, you'd have to use it's own title. Skyrim is...skyrim.

Skyrim is one of the biggest games of this gen. The depth of the gameplay, the scale of the map, all the things you can do, the customization, the characters...It's fascinating. The games features a deep and involving story like that guides you through the entire map but doesn't limit you to a linear path. You're able to go wherever you want and climb whatever you want. The scale of this world is so big that there's always something new to discover and when you see the entire map itself, you would think there has to be a cutoff, or it has to be an illusion, as there's no way you can reach all those places. False, if you can see it, you can reach it. Skyrim's map contains many glitches and texture issues and the qaulity and depth of the 3d world isn't much of a fascination, but trust me, and believe when I say that every graphical shortcomings this game has becomes automatically forgiven when you consider the scale of the world. The story and the characters are all well designed. The customization and things you can do to your character as you'd expect from alll Elder's Scrolls games have been updated and improved and your character customization and leveling will go as far as you want them to. Skyrim is an impressive game and one of the generation defining titles of this gen. Induct this game into the hall of fame of games, please. :)
