I should've played this 13 years ago... (Skyrim First Playthrough - Part 1)

[@BS-xb5ej]

"This feels magical for some reason" - this, exactly. Of course the gameplay is lacking, but the atmosphere in this game is unrivaled imo

[@TheRealRedAce]

Theres nothing wrong with the gameplay!

[@BS-xb5ej]

@@TheRealRedAce Well, not "wrong" per se. It can be fun, but it is very simplistic, lacking in parts, and IMO not the reason we all love Skyrim. The reason for this is more what Jake felt in that moment and I am happy for him to get the same feeling we all have when we come back to the game despite it being 2 generations old.

[@kamixakadio2441]

@@BS-xb5ej I'd argue the simplistic gameplay is what enhanced the game. It takes focus away from the mechanics, and directs that focus towards the other aspects of the game, which enhances the feel of the atmosphere, the immersion of the world itself and the exploration.

[@itz_x_salvation395]

November 11th of 2011. One of the greatest first day gaming experiences of my life. Was in highschool we had that friday off school. Went to the midnight release. Was in party chat with 3 other friends playing the game. None of us talked for hours we were so immersed into the game. We all played from midnight to around 10am without saying much. Then my buddy Andy said, "im hungry" we all went to waffle house and each of us explained what we were doing in the game. We all chose a different path, different grind to start the game, whether that be dual weild, magic, or so on. It was just incredible.

[@adnanomer9089]

When it comes to lore, skyrim "elder scrolls in general" and elden ring are the greatest of all time. Both of them are really immersing and engaging on a high level

​​​​​​@@pinkleWeenkiesAll I am waiting for in the Elder Scrolls 6 is that sweet sweet LOOOORE, I love the universe of Elder Scrolls, I know the game will be bad, but I am going to play it if it means we can get some highlights of the Redguard (and Orc since Orsinium is a city state in Hammerfell post 4th era according to Skyrim's Orc profile) culture, I really want to see the Redguard afterlife, it has such an interesting concept of journey, it can be an really cool quest line or DLC, I also want to see if we are going to explore High Rock and perhaps find out if The Agent became the 3rd Underking or really just was teared apart in between the timelines during the Dragon Break of Daggerfall.

[@Novastar.SaberCombat]

Bought it on 11.11.11. Played through every side quest and task, modding my way through it all the while until 12.12.12. No joke. Didn't really touch it afterward because I was busy with my own productions. Recently, I decided to introduce my daughter to it, and now I've played through 80% or more in a few months, lol. 💪😎✌️ Still a groovy atmosphere, gorgeous music by Jeremy Soule, and the V.O. work and writing were (mostly) interesting and unique.

[@smokingbobs1344]

Good lord I am SO excited to watch this playthrough. Somehow, there has not been a single game that has ever truly surpassed Skyrim as my favourite game of all time. Elden Ring came really, reeeeally close, but it just can't top this one. It's clunky and janky as hell but it's just so beautiful, so special and takes place in such an incredible universe. I was about 20 when this game came out and it literally changed my life, haha. I really, really hope you love this game and I can't wait to watch your journey through it 🥹

[@DrizzleDrizzleNeverDies]

I can't imagine how it feels to play this game fresh for the first time. After having played Oblivion, I was so hyped for Skyrim that a month before it released, my mom brought home a display case from the store and hid the receipt for a preorder inside for my birthday. The hype for high school me was unreal. I'd definitely recommend trying modding, at least for graphics and gameplay fixes such as USSEP (Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch). There's some that add fun side quests and all that but what TRULY makes Skyrim so unique for everyone and what brings us back is how much the modding scene for it has thrived and breathes new life into it every time we pick it back up

[@bibbaaah]

[@octavianpopescu4776]

Oh yes! I will absolutely watch this. I replayed Skyrim so many times for the feeling of being in that world, listening to the exceptional music while travelling the roads of Skyrim at night or sitting in an inn reading an in game book (some stories in those books are legit good, The Wolf Queen is my favourite series). I appreciate the world of Elden Ring, I loved the game, but Skyrim has a much more detailed and rich world with layers and layers of lore. In fact, this is one thing that bugs me about From Soft's world design: it's always some post-collapse world. It's well done, but too empty. I want to go into a city, meet people, trade, observe their lives/customs, their architecture. This is why, if you asked me what the perfect game would be: it would be Elden Ring combat in a Skyrim world (I really like the world of the Elder Scrolls).

It's never too late to play skyrim. It's a beautiful game and if you're like most it will stick with you. And if you really like it,modding it makes the game nearly infinitely replayable.

Skyrim is definitely a solid game. My problem with is pretty specifically with the perk and combat system though. I haven’t been able to play this game ever since I realized it rewards stealth archery so heavily that every character I try to make slowly morphs into one by the time I’ve hit the end of the main quest 😂

[@besinji2000]

I wouldn’t say you should have played it 13 years ago. I started it in 2015 and that was the perfect time to do it in my opinion. Most game breaking bugs were patched, all the DLC was available, they had mods, videos on here to find out what I should be doing… since it has only grown over time, I’d say the later the better almost.
