All the time I hear people excuse fallout 3 and 4 with “Its good if you mod it” and thats a load of bullshit. A game should be able to stand on its own merit and if you require mods to make a bad game good, then youd be better off putting the same effort into modding a good game to be better.

Imagine if these games did not have mod support, nobody would play them. I know I wouldn't.

Mix and match in quality IMO. The Thieves Guild for example is absolutely atrocious, worst line in the game, so many plot holes you have to shut off your brain to avoid screaming at the screen (the side missions with Delvin and Vex are far better, and they're just fetch quests basically with some nice cappers), where the Dark Brotherhood quest is likely the best one, a nice companion to wash the bad taste out of your mouth from the thieves guild given the same type of character would likely be doing both of them.

@@mikeangelo2886 Actually there are no such dungeons in Skyrim where that can happen. All of the quest-dependent dungeons are locked off before the quest begins, you can't get into the thieves guild or college ones, the Companions ones just ends after the first room with no way to progress (collapsed roof that later is cleaned up with a shovel next to it, and an impassable door for the two others), same with other questlines (Potema questline dungeon the place where you drop down the hole into the tombs are closed). The exception to this is the Dark Brotherhhood, where all three (if you count the optional one) can be finished before you ever join the dark brotherhood, you might even have collected the reward you'd get in the first proper DB quest from one of them (maybe even because Lost to the Ages also sends you to that dungeon), while for the two others it's just a matter of talking to a person, and picking up some loot. The Bard's College side quests for the teachers also qualify in the quest item part, specifically to find Rjorn's Drom, Finn's Lute and Pantea's Flute, you can pick up all those items which will be quest items, however if you just go to the people that want them (Giraud Germane, Inge Six-Fingers and Pantea respectively) you can hand in the items and get the reward (+1 point to all warrior/thief/mage skills) without needing to do the Burning of King Olaf stuff beforehand. The same happens with Dravin's Bow and Roggi's Amulet of Talos, which you can both pick up before you get the quests (for the bow just go find a dunmer named Dravin at the farm right outside the Riften gates, for Roggi's amulet if you took it off him as his head rolled you can find one of the kids running around Solitude that "don't want to talk" and be told to go to her mother who wants it). Note however as with the Lost to the Ages conflict, any of the quests you get from innkeepers or jarls or fetch quests for NPCs could easily go to any of those quests, in fact first time I got Rjorn's Drum it was in the same chest as Runil's Journal that I was actually looking for, and the third Dark Brotherhood dungeon has 9 out of 10 times been the place the Jarl of Markarth sends me for the thane quest. A mod I highly recommend for people who want to explore dungeons but want a quest/reason for it is either the Missives mod, or the Notice Board mod, they both add notice boards in all the towns and outside all inns that you can get radiant quests off based off the vanilla companions/etc quests to go to x dungeon and kill y or retrieve z then return to quest giver for a reward, all of them based off the list of 'radiant dungeons' which are basically all non-quest dungeons in the game like bandit camps etc., if you have Dragonborn or mods like Falksaar then the new lands dungeons will get added to that list also.

Love how all these keyboard warriors and false KZread intellectuals say the vanilla game is so bad as if your opinions hold any weight over the hundreds of critics and millions of gamers that praised the living hell out of the game at release and years on.

one of my most memorable moments in the game was when i maxed my sneak to 100 and enabled all the subskills of sneak i was sneaking around in cold snowing tundra and i came across a snow bear. i went very close to it almost point blan krange and i just watched what he was doing he apparently just made some growling noises while digging the ground with one of his frontal paws/claws. and the nhe just slowly went on to sleep. at that time i needed bear pelts for a quest giver who hates bears. but seeing that bear sleep made me feel as if its not a code in a computer but rather a real living creature. i just couldn't kill that chunky boi and just watched his innocent kitten sleep and then moved on. there are a few games that can do that sort of thing.

While this is true, it's a pretty forgivable mistake. Most of the passive effects from skills were either subtle, or required you to keep a pretty close watch on given stats.

One thing i found very surprising regarding Skyrim's skill progression is that's like, and yes i'm being serious, Dark Souls. Individual levels of each skill/stat have effects so minimal that they're seemingly pointless, but over time each of these tiny minimal effects stack up to later have a dramatic difference. A character in Dark Souls with 30 Vigor will have a much larger hp than one with only 15 Vigor...but each individual level of Vigor will have too little of an effect to ever tank any more hits. The same formula applies to a Skyrim character with 80 Sneak compared to one with 20 Sneak; the 80 Sneak character can crouch undetected like a ninja while the 20 Sneak character struggles to take a step without the whole dungeon noticing, but each level of sneak is borderline worthless on its own.

I was _so_ goddamn hyped for Skyrim. A few of my friends and I all went to the midnight launch at Play N Trade to pick it up. Then we all brought our 360s and TVs over to my friend's apartment and spent the next week playing the game together. We were all disappointed that the Dragonborn didn't shout *FUS RO DAH* the way he did in the trailer, but man did we love the game. I put 400+ hours into the 360 version alone.

Hay GMANLIVES thanks for anuther grate video bro!

Let me guess, someone stole your swee- Wait, I know you,

Rather belatedly, I've always thought that Skyrim's civil war plot suffered from the same problem as Deus Ex: Invisible War. Don't set a faction up as an antagonist towards the player character if you want that faction rivalry to a be a major side plot, because that initial hostile contact will lead players to lean more towards the other faction. I would be willing to bet that most first-time players instinctive sided with the Stormcloaks simply because they weren't the ones bending the player over the chopping block within the first few minutes of the game, with the most common first-time Imperial players probably being people who first played Skyrim after having played older games in the series (meaning they have experience playing in the setting of the actual Empire, and have context that a new entry into the series lacks).

I've been waiting for this for God knows how long. Thank you so much for making this video my dude.

I was on holiday in Iceland this week and saw the Northern Lights aurora. The people I was with were amazed and all I could think was "Looked better in Skyrim!" That's the only game that ever made my mind do that.

I can't even put into words how deeply this game took over my life and engaged me and my friends into it's world. Just amazing, even 11 years later!

I haven't even gotten past the ad, and I know this is going to have the following words: "Overrated" (I wouldn't have it any other way) "Sheit" "Sonny Jim"

Hey Gman, would you consider playing Lost Planet 2 now that it’s backwards compatible on Xbox One? There’s still a good amount of people playing co-op despite the game being 9 years old.

I've played thousands of hours of Skyrim. Most of it modded. I don't think Skyrim, vanilla, is a good RPG. In fact it's pretty terrible as an RPG since the mechanics are shallow at best, the story kinda sucks, and the combat isn't any good. However, it's a damn good sandbox and there's a lot of work that has been done on this world. It's not a bad game, just a bad RPG. And then you mod it till it crashes and before you know it it has actual combat and mechanics. Oh, and you can bang all the chicks. ALL OF THEM. As a game to mod, this is the absolute best. No questions.

Bethesda is fantastic at the "pick a direction and go" style of game but they (now) suck at rpgs. Sometimes i wish they would abandon the rpg aspects entirely.

Tbh I didn't feel like Witcher 3 was also a good RPG. It was a good action narrative rpg. The combat mechanics of w3 is even more shallow because your playstyle never changes at all there is no standalone magic only support spells and no conjuring, crossbow is meh...

@@yashkaushik6116 Agreed, Witcher 3 is not a good *RPG* . It was a pretty good *action-adventure* open world, with a decent main story and some good side-quests (although perhaps not as good as some people claim). Definitely a lot of fun; on the RPG front, however, it kinda sucked.

Skyrim is an RPG

My favourite bug/moment from skyrim was my attempt at a wedding. This wedding must have been about 70ish hours in, did it mainly for the sake of it. The big day comes, I enter the temple and what happens as I load in? A heavy thud. I think the game is meant to spawn in your companians and some people you've interacted with. I dont believe however that it is meant to spawn in dead people. What was infront of me was the body of Lydia, who must have died well over 50 hours before in a dwemer ruin somewhere after I accidently killed her. Needless to say the other characters there werent happy about me killing her (I assumed the body was tagged as me killing it) so people started shouting at me. I decided to get on with the ceremony but the priest also wasnt happy at all and the dialogue option wouldnt appear so I did what everyone would do in that situation and left, thinking I could come back later to get married. Well first of all my fiancee wasnt happy about being jlted but I said sorry and she forgave me. I went back to the temple and the priest still refused to give any dialogue options God Damn Lydia

The Thing (1982) with the head spider is what made me not like spiders along commonly encountering Black Widows tucked in almost every other car I got to repair for a decade or so. I still give them the carburetor cleaner and mini torch treatment since I'm not a sorcerer or summoner.

Same. I only start installing mods after the Dragonborn DLC.

Technically there is a parry system, it requires you to shieldbash at the right moment before an attack lands. You even get a skill that slows down time right before an attack lands so you can easily shieldbash 'em.

Heyas - if i buy this game off Ebay what do i have to have, just regular Elder Scrolls V good enough? or do I need Legendary? Also, the people selling these games on Ebay it says 'Code has been Used' ??? - I want to start playing but i don't want to fuck up and get the wrong shit - also, i heard that Elswhyre is coming soon too, but i think there will be enough content to keep me busy in Skyrim for a while yeah? So i don't think i wanna pre-order that, but yeah - any advice would be appreciated. Thx! :)

Play it vanilla.

I could be wrong but I thought that levels earned in every skill affect character performance in addition to skill points spent on them. This is definitely true of smithing since you can reach the mid upgrade tier without putting in any points. I'm also fairly certain that weapon skills add damage, armor skills increase armor values and sneaking makes you harder to spot.

It's kind of like Fallout 4. It's downright broken at times, but somehow it just sucks you in. Although Fallout 4 is on a whole other level of broken than Skyrim.

I used to be a video game reviewer like you then I made you look at this meme.

I came here expecting something and I got it at 18:13. Thanks, GmanLives.

another great video bud. don't harp o. yourself for reviewing games that have been reviewed... a good review these days is about having someone's opinion you appreciate talk about a subject you are interested in... mission accomplished 🏄 I can't tell you exactly why I enjoyed watching your video... but it's apparently since I've watched so much of your content that I am more connected with your perspective. This video made me realise I need to buy Skyrim for a 3rd time... for my switch.

I still remember buying Skyrim in 2011 with zero expectations. At this point I dont like to use mods, I have the Daedra armor and weapons and finished every quest. 10/10 go buy it now!!

I still remember going into the game with high expectations, what with its dozens of awards and "best RPG" claim by many - only to be met with the most underwhelming RPG experience I've had yet, primarily due to terrible combat (even for 2011 standards), shallow RPG elements and poor world building. Definitely nowhere near being GOTY 2011, plenty other RPGs the same year were far better.

@@bsherman8236 wut? Considering the number of accolades it's received you'd expect it to do an outstanding job at being an RPG - sadly it doesn't, it's not even as good as it's predecessors. How is everything else arbitrary? Shit combat is shit, dumbed down RPG elements are dumbed down, and poor world building is poor - none of these are "arbitrary", they're just how the game is. Believe me, I didn't let the praise it gets cloud my critical view of the game. And for proof of that, look no further than it's fellow 2011 RPGs - ALL of which were better: Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Witcher 2, Dark Souls, Bastion, and so on. And yes, I've played all of them.

The fact you are making a video of Skyrim in 2019 says it all

HOLY SHIT- I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT HUNIEPOP FRAME! PLEASE REVIEW IT

Skyrim was such an important game in my teen years, I literally look at time as "Pre-Skyrim and Post-Skyrim". 2011 was just such a big year and I feel like we've just been chasing that high for over a decade just to keep coming up disappointed.

A fair and balanced review! I'm glad you didn't fall into the "Reee! It's not Morrowind!" pit that I've seen a lot of people reviewing Skyrim do.
