Full Review for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim by

Introduction

First of all hi.I really like this game as I'm really into RPG's but there are some issues with the game which I will get to soon enough.just remember that my review is my opinion and mine alone and might not be shared by other people.ready?......well lets begin shall we.

Graphics

First of all for the sake of graphics:they are amazing but are let down by glitches,bad phisics and long loading times coupled with being prone to freezing and frame rate issues.but even that being said this game boasts an enormous expansive world of exploration.the random cloud generation engine is just so amazing as the clouds and mist running around and over mountains is beautiful breath-taking,if only you could take the time to even get in a glance,as there are plenty of creatures in skyrim that want to kill your character or maybe just want to be left alone.next is the graphics engine used for creatures and people in skyrim:the bears and wolves for one are a vast improvment from the animals in oblivion where it took countless strikes to kill even something as simple as a wolf which in my opinion was stupid as wolves can be killed with a single sword strike.luckily this was rectified in skyrim.the animals in skyrim graphically speaking where vastly improved and their movements seemed more natural and the A.I fit perfectly into this routine.now the people of skyrim look much better that in oblivion,and they also got rid of zooming into their bloated face that made them look like they had some sort of disease(like the mumps,or maybe a severe tooth-ache).the fact that they allowed for a free view conversation made it feel more natural and realistic.the skys of skyrim are just amazing what,with all the realistic clouds that randomly generate and the aroura that will some times show up.the moons are more realistic and just beautiful on a cold skyrim night.I give the graphics a score of nine because I just couldn't get over the glitches,but overall they are very good.

Sound

First of all the title screen anthom is amazing with the original nordic language used for the song.the animal sounds are very good and correct and will change depending on how far you are away from them,I also like the natural sounds of the wolves howling,bears growling or the dragons roaring.I must also congrajulate the voice actors for their amazing job,as their vocals sound and feel natural and right for the mood they are meant to be feeling.the sounds for swords,shields,spells and shouts are correct and are taken from sounds in reality.now the final verdict for the sound:the mixture of the music and battle sounds are perfect and when you mix them with the sound of a dragon roaring overhead is just amazing,so I give it a sound score of ten

Gameplay

First I must say the gameplay is pretty good but let down by design features that make the game formidable.such as the enemies in certain areas will always be at least ten levels ahead of you which in my opinion is not only unfair but also abit stupid .it's as if the enemies got together and said "theres a guy coming around in the next few weeks so we're going to train and get ready for him/her muwahahahahahahah".joking aside there are times where I think that the game throws you a curve-ball and takes a crap on your parade,and ruins your perfect run of victories and accomplishments and kick you in the teeth.such occurances include super powerful bandits that are way more powerful that even the bandit chief himself/herself,which makes no sense at all as the bandit chief is thier leader.the fact that only your attacks can kill your partner and this make fighting in the game much more difficult also the fact that the enemies can't hurt each other doesn't make any sense.or sometimes if you are fighting a dragon and die,you will sometimes load into the same area with two to three dragons or maybe the dragon changes type frost to fire or fire to frost.gameplay is also effected by glitches that relate to frame rate making it difficult to fight because theres two many enemies on the screen.overall I give the gameplay a playful score of eight.

Lastability

Immense to say the least.there are over 300-400 locations to discover and nearly 3000 side,main and special quests to complete.the ability to create your own armor,weapons and accessories and a wide array of enchantments means there are nearly endless applications to battle stratageies.actually theres so much in this game that I don't have the time to type it all down,so in all I give the lastability a lasting score of ten.

Overall

An amazing game buy it if you don't have,and if you do have it keep it because this game will be played long after the last dragon has fallen to the everlasting loud mouth known as the dragonborn.now I myself have not beaten the game yet but i'll probably get there in the next year or so.so.......I hope you like my review,but if you don't thats your opinion and yours alone.I don't really care either way,I just wanted to put my say on this site about this game.(vos roh dah).

Final Score: 94%
