[Review] The Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim (Windows)

This is the 5th installment of the Elder Scrolls series and while it has been 5 years already since its release, there are a ton of new mods try out and many reasons to go back to Skyrim.

Vanilla Skyrim is a game that does everything in an acceptable fashion. It is far from perfect but it does indeed do a lot of things like talking to other npcs who spout out the same three lines, “dynamically” level up skills based on how you play, and play favorites with who should take over the province of Skyrim. All in all, its a pretty decent game.

With mods, this game is near perfect and quite often improves itself. Many of the mods seek out to improve and add to the game. Aside from the mods that seeks out to fix a lot of things, there are many mods to add that completely changes the experience of Skyrim, or even the rest of Tamriel.

You want trains in Skyrim? Cause now you can. There are other ridiculous mods out there, and feel free to try them out.

There’s a built in NPC dating minigame, which is great. You can ride genetically enhanced horses with the ability to climb slopes that are near 90 degrees. You can play with NPC’s emotions, and you don’t even need spells. It’s pretty great.

This game is good on its own, but its even better with mods. This game can run on a medium to low-end computer, and if you have one of those fancy high-end ones, you could even try out ENB’s which changes how the game looks.
