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.

    So it's like Final Fantasy Mystic Quest? I dunno though, my issue is I think Skyrim only primes people for more zero effort slop. If you play Skyrim you're not gonna be ready to create a character in Fallout 1 or w/e, since mechanically Skyrim does not have character creation...

    Worse than Skyrim brow I mean it has its problems but I'd much rather be bouncing around the Shivering Isles or doing the Painted World questline...
