An arrow in the knee can be your ticket to Skyrim

I remember Skyrim like it was Finland (a mountainous place). In Skyrim, the player will be Dragonborn meaning he/she has a normal body but has a soul of a dragon. Like in the trailer, this is about dragon slaying, but Skyrim is huge I tell ya. There's more than being Dragonborn. You can be part of the Thieves Guild in Riften or a student at the College of Winterhold. If you prefer my type, be a master criminal and you can see angry mobs after you. You could also want to become a werewolf and terrorize vampires. Let me describe Skyrim. The place is rocky, snowy and filled with mountains. Sure Morrowind and Cyrodiil is bigger than Skyrim, but Skyrim won't let you down since it is still "huge". Bugs could be very annoying because you can find a lot of them. Some are even so annoying you need a fix to finish the story. The graphics are immersive. I remember that I tried to play the game at low or medium settings and it still looks hell good as it it. Every graphic design is great, from world detail to character detail, the water looks realistic too. It's not flawless though. The gameplay can give you a great time too. In fact, it might take you more than a hundred hours to beat this game. Just like what I said, Skyrim IS big. You can do a lot of things here, like going on to quests if you're the adventurous type, or have a heist at a big house, if you're the sneaky type. Dungeons in Skyrim may be repetitive, and can may be annoying sometimes. You can also make your own weapons by smiting and improving it by enchanting your own weapon. Then the next thing you want to do is to make a bunch and sell them so you can buy the house of your dreams with you and your wife. Oh, did I say a wife. In Skyrim, there can be a lot of NPC's to choose to marry. The leveling has also gone different. Some would love it, some would not. Depending on what's your type, thas's the thing you would want to upgrade. You can be an archer who uses light armor, or you can be using heavy armor and destruction magic. It really doesn't matter if what perks you want to improve, it's all up to you to think of. Combat can be simple by how it is and that's why I love it. It isn't like those other fancy games where you could do a lot of moves. Just one button for attacks. Also, you may find third person worth it. Bethesda sure made great changes in TESV, the engine isn't the same as the old games but it is disappointing that engine improvement would start at Skyrim. Going on to how the sound works, it's EPIC. If you don't believe me, then you want to hear it to Skyrim's main theme. Voice acting is good enough but I've seen other better voice acting. The music is real good and the sound is convincing. The main story hadn't really give much impact to me. It isn't like Grand Theft Auto IV with a masterpiece story, but it is good enough to be entertaining. It's also not so related with the last sequel. Skyrim really made me capture Skyrim. It has it's own world, it has everything it can support to itself. I felt like I was really there. But it isn't that flawless and you can believe me if you play it for yourself. This is one game you must have, to tell you the truth, I didn't really like the look of TESV but when I played it, everything turned around.
