You made some valid points. And then some of your points are a distorted, personal preference, rooted in exaggerations and holier than thou standards

If they’re so exaggerated then prove me wrong and refute them.

, especially for a game made 4 years ago.

What? All the criticisms i made about Skyrim were my first over all impressions of the game. My opinions haven’t changed in four years. And age doesn’t make a game bad i could name 10 games that are far older than Skyrim but are much better.

First off, nothing I’ve said labels me as some “skyrim fan boy”. I don’t even know what you mean by that. It’s nonsensical and just a ploy to fuel an argument.

You’ve called it one of the best games of the last ten years but cant say why it is. Thats just blind fanboyism pure and simple.

As for 3 hours long, I think this is just some number you pulled out of nowhere. Knowing exactly everywhere to go, fast traveling everywhere, not engaging in the world, etc., this will speed up the main story. These are the kind of gamers who RPGs probably aren’t meant for. If all you’re interested in is speed running through the game, then that’s on you. It took me 150 hours to beat Skyrim the first time. It wasn’t a short game for me, or for any of the friends I know who played the game.

Oh my god i dont even know what to say to this one. You can easily beat it in under 3 hours which i did i even did a few side quests in that time. It does not take 150 hours to beat Skyrims main story side quests do not count as a main story. If you just play the main story as soon as you start the game you can get to sovernguard and killed Alduian in under 3 hours which is the the main story.

Your comments are the only ones trying to make it into a pc vs console argument.

That was in response to your original comment calling me a pc elitist which was nothing more than a desperate personal attack.

Yes, your impressions, your opinions, which are the minority. Taste in videogames is subjective. So you’re welcome to feel however you wish. But the vast majority of people enjoyed Skyrim, even with all its flaws.

There’s a difference between “can’t say why” and choosing not to. And that has nothing to do with fanboyism. That’s just a generic attack that is pure drivel.

Good for you. I commend you for how skilled you are at speed running through games. I envy you.

Good base but not the only One game.
The Vanilla Game is a good game, mostly more for consoles!
(PC: Skyrim + Improving = Lag)
Problem is that the people can’t wait.
I don’t know why many people needing an article to tell the world
that the boring Skyrim is one of the best.
We all known that (We open the door since the turn of BRD & DDR)

This just shows me you have no counter argument. You’ve been arguing with me the past few days and haven’t said once what makes Skyrim a great game.

Actually a lot of people didn’t really care for Skyrim and shared my opinions. Again just because a game is popular doesn’t mean its a good game. If a game was good because it was popular then Cod would be the best game in the world.

Lol what ever you say.

Good for you. I commend you for how skilled you are at speed running through games. I envy you.

Didn’t speed run through. I simply played the main story until it was over and it only took me 3 hours on my first try. Sure the game has hundreds of hours of other content but the main story is pathetically short and you don’t have to “speed run” to get through it in under 3 hours.

I’ve noticed you’re a very argumentative person on this forum, and that you appear to get your jollies from trying to incite such conversation. I think it’s obvious I’m choosing not to argue with you, but rather respond to you. My lack of arguing does not equate to not having an argument. I just don’t deem you worthy of such a debate since you’re not sincerely interested in a fruitful discussion, but rather more interested in stroking your own ego.

I’m sure a lot of people think you’re a nice, intelligent fellow too.

You’re so cool.

Yes i am argumentative but we’re talking about Skyrim not me.

Doubtful

You’re so cool.

Attacking me doesn’t make Skyrim the best game of the last 10 years. Im trying to have a nice argument and so far all you’ve done is throw out personal insults. So please don’t respond unless you’re ready to tell me why Skyrim deserves all of its praise.
