I was watching "...why Skyrim?" by Razbuten on sloptube this aft and it's so weird that it finally took Starfield for people to realise. Like Fallout 76 wasn't enough, only now are negative things people were first saying about Skyrim in 2012 finally bleeding into mainstream consciousness. It's so wild, like wow they ruined the magic system? The game has worse writing than a PS1 era Mega Man X game??? Skyrim is just shitty Game of Thrones?? Welcome to thirteen years ago!!

Bethesda hasn't made a really good game since 2002, but it'll probably be years before that realisation sinks in.

    Playing melee with supplementary magic seems best, pure mage can be a nightmare honestly. Rad multiclass, very cool.

        I did a dark elf spellsword, long blade and destruction/conjuration as majors... life sux yea cowboy-cri

        This game's stat and skill system is really complex, I had forgotten that weapon skills level an associated attribute. Short blade doing speed must be for stealthy types...

        Spear is for comedy purposes tho =)
