Not trying to ruin anything men,just i don't understand people being obsessed with skyrim,or any particular game,and by that i mean to play that game over and over again,i understand coming back to game after some period of time passed,because you really want to play it again,but having it installed all the time,that's just depressing sorry not trying to be rude :/ P.S i don't know how old are you,but you can get yourself pc pretty cheap,specially if you build it(what i did) that is if you have some income,or can spare some money over time.
I played Skyrim when it came out in 2011,i don't know how you deducted that,from few words i have put in my comment,just because i don't like it so much,it doesn't mean anything,game was good for one play trough,and that's about it,i did all side quests,got all the weapons i like,armors,did all guilds,so yeah i had fun and that was it.
I have been playing it for 5 years pretty consistently. I stopped around 2015 and then bought it on PC and now every month or so I come back to it for a few days and add more mods to it and play through it in different ways. Everytime I play the game I find something new about it I didn't even notice even though I have probably too many hours in it.
@Soldier Minecraft I don't agree. We never forget a great game. I still remember playing my first PC game. Project IGI 2 and how I fell in love with it. Each mission is still fresh in my memory. It was 13 years back.
Get some mods, mate. I have been playing this game for almost 8 years now. Texture mods, animation mods, Location mods, weapons & Armor mods, new quest mods, etc will make your Skyrim re playable for years. 👍
STONE COLD Same. I've been playing alot on my PS4. Couldn't believe I finally ended it 2 weeks ago after years of not. I think I had it for either PS3 or 360. But anyway..I am done with all the other triple A games that did nothing for me that released earlier this year except for Dragon Quest 11. Unbelievably Skyrim has me very very open to exploring. Completely 77 missions so far and counting.
If Skyrim is your favorite game of all time then you haven't played any other Elder Scrolls game and haven't played any RPG game at all besides Skyrim.

Starfield is kind of okay, it is not trash but not very good either - but it is a disapppintment compared to what I expected. Just an average game. Hopefully TES6 will be better, a passion project and an awesome game of all time
Agree. I had to mod it heavily though with graphics mod to make it modern. Feels like the game was released in 2018. My son was introduced to it for the first time. He is 16. he loves it so far and we both sit down and play it together on my pc.
39:20 Me - He's right! Today is 2/20/2021 and I'm still playing it... with mods of course lol. But i am still playing it. And a huge thanks to the uploader for this video. I have a personal connection with Skyrim. When I went through depression back in 2014, this game kept me going. I was completely immersed into it's world and helped me fight my depression & suicidal thoughts. Now I am a small time musician by profession. It will always be the best game I have ever played. Thank you Skyrim. P.S I hope everyone who commented here before me survived 2020 Covid shit and are still playing Skyrim just like I am. CHEERS EVERYONE!
Just started a new game. Cant believe its been 13 years since my first play through. Ive always been two handed, heavy armor. I going for a stealth archer build and im level 21. So much fun. This game has so much depth its mindblowing. Even being 26, this game is a comfort.
@nicole382 it's genuinely timeless art. It's lightning in a bottle. The little quirks and sometimes even the silly bugs are part of the charm for me personally. People always joke about how "Skyrim has been released a million times blah blah" and yeah it's a funny meme... but when you actually look at it... there IS a reason this game has been re-released and improved for newer platforms so many times over the years. That doesn't just happen in the industry as a normal practice because reproducing it and adapting it for new consoles costs a lot of money, yet it still sells so well.. because. it's just THAT good of a game.... and because after all these years people STILL download it and play it.
Play Kingdom Come Deliverance lol. It was extremely monotonous back then unfortunately. Adventurers could not exist as towns were small and people didn't trust outsiders since criminals could be exiled. Even visiting a nearby town would cause eyes to look your way.
It's almost been 11 years... I spent tons, and tons, and tons of hours playing this game and I still thing there's nothing out there more impressive than Skyrim.
2024 and this is a kind of game I would play around 3-4 months every year, a game I revisit in toughest times or stress, fighting off depressions, just so I can enjoy or chill out in a video game instead of getting stressed out.
It was Christmas Day 2012. I opened one of my presents, it was Elder Scrolls V - Skyrim. Me and my brother went upstairs with our gifts. I turned on our Xbox 360, took out Bionic Commando and put Skyrim in. It installed. Once it started...My life changed.

I have sympathy for people who weren't able to experience the insane pre-release hype for Skyrim and then the feeling of playing it for the first time in 2011.

37:20 - 'It does feel like we've been working on it for 20 years' - This will be 5 years short of true when Elder Scrolls 6 comes out some time around 2026.
Uma obra de arte assim como todos os jogos da série, mas Skyrim tem um lugar especial no meu coração, é uma obra prima, nunca irei esquecer, é mágico e ainda jogo até hoje
For me, these game makes a new video game Era really possible. Life goes beyond just killing, taking enemies heart out, or even getting to the main goal. In life everything matters,in its own proportion and Skyrim broke through with an excellent vision and work. These opens the pad for games were the ways of achieving or experiencing will be more unique, more close to your wishes up to what the game offers.
I have so much respect for all these people. I was just playing Skyrim and when I checked the time on steam it said that my current session has been going for 440 minutes! Not many games can make me forget real life exists 😆
The one think I like to know, was that did they have to look up Viking history to put things like Trolls, Hags, and most importantly Drauge's in the game
