A correction, as some have pointed out it sounds like the game runs at 900p in docked mode. It just goes to show how well they otherwise handled the game visually, because usually I can spot that kind of thing and I got straight bambooz'd.

Alot of people stay Skyrim was meant to be played with mods, but I clocked like 300+ hours on just vanilla skyrim before even installing mods. But when I did, it was like opening up a whole new world

[@demonsdance9328]

I do both but having OCD makes a modded Skyrim more stressful than anything for me, so I find myself going back to vanilla often

[@lucasferes3519]

I think it was meant to be played as it is, it's just a brilliant game. Even the clunkyness of the vanilla is quite charming and fun. Imo the modding is the cherry on top, but of course, you can change it all up to the point it becomes a new cake, but that doesn't mean the vanilla is not enough.

[@TwilightWolf032]

The Paper Mario games let you increase your HP, FP and BP as you level up. You can finish the game with 5HP, 5FP and 100BP if you want. The joke is the similarity between the systems when a game allows the player to choose freely what stats to level up, especially if it comes in a set of three like Paper Mario.

"Skyrim is a game where you push goats off of cliffs by yelling at them." SOLD In all seriousness though, I can't wait for this. Though I've put a ton of time into the PC version, I've wanted something like this on a portable system for years. While people continue to exaggerate how many times Skyrim has been released, I'll be too busy having a blast playing it at the park or on work lunch breaks to care. Very pleased to hear how well this turned out. I only hope it isn't jarring to me after I had the PC version modded to look extra spiffy, but I've never really played the Special Edition versions anyway, so I'm sure I'll forget about that five minutes in once I realize I'm finally playing PORTABLE SKYRIM.

Arlo I really like your reviewing style. its refreshing and it feels like you are being genuine. thanks for being a cool dude.

[@Tatsumi81]

I don't know what path I traversed to end up here... at this particular review... but somehow... this has set the tone for 2018. This was the BEST thing I've seen on KZbin... I TRULY enjoyed this. Thank you sir... Subscribed

One of my personal favorite builds for the game is a magic-based sneak archer. Bound Bow is absolutely overpowered, being a Daedric Bow with unlimited Daedric Arrows. Having Conjuration support is additionally just really useful since I can stick to the backlines and shoot from afar. I also just do Heavy Armor anyways because there's literally no reason not to when there's perks to eliminate its flaws entirely.

[@juliablack13]

Don’t worry, Metroid prime 4 will save you when that comes out 😐

[@jakewes6642]

Julia C. Thats a completely differwnt type of game. Like super mario? Every try COD Black Ops? Aybe Final Fantasy 8? What about Candy crush? Age of empires? Lol

[@Hibernial]

Lol, yup. “Save you”. (Goodbye time)

[@TheAbsol7448]

Now we've got The Witcher motherfucking 3 on our plates. If Xenoblade X ever gets ported, I'd be forced to say hello to my new life.

[@stellarhyme3]

Arlo you're forgetting that the Special Edition on the other consoles was full price when they were released as well. They all cost 59.99 upon release on those consoles. So why would the price be reduced on the Switch when it's the first time being released on Nintendo's console as well?

[@knightmayor1703]

WITLESSMASS because it's a 6 year old game

[@ivanramos1809]

WITLESSMASS I had mine 2 minths later for 16 in black friday last year. Hope i can repeat the luck.

[@silverfangmoonhunter]

It being $60 elsewhere doesn't justify it being $60 here. Those ports shouldn't even have been full price. They're all slightly modded versions of the base game which has been barely improved since it came out originally 6 years ago. Theyre being priced at $60 for money and nothing else.

I'm so disappointed Bethesda didn't make amiibo rewards more unique. I would've LOVED the Yoshi amiibo to spawn a dragon or a DK amiibo to spawn a troll.

[@Leet-iz2fz]

TheLegendOfJoey Meta Knight amiibo to summon Galaxia, which is like a one-handed Bloodskal Blade.

Hearing this game's soundtrack again really brings back a lot of nostalgic memories from when I first played this game back in 2011

[@silvermane5695]

I am terrified that if I buy the game, I might end up hooked up with it and never let it down LOL.

[@Keatosis_Quohotos]

They really should sell this game as a pack in tittle for the switch, it's the reason why I'm seriously considering buying it, if they put it in a bundle they would move so many units

[@BasedBraum]

I love how critical and objective your reviews are. Could you do a review on arms?

[@aptspire]

As of my latest game, I usually just go Alteration (because of the Transmutation spellbook in the bandit mine West of Whiterun), smithing (jewelry out of the former for extra gold), illusion (because you can continually spam Muffle and max the level, making invisibility an easy pick) and stealth (which will ramp up from Muffle+invis). I know folks swear by sneaky archer but that 30x dmg from a backstab is nothing to sneeze at.

[@eliteteutonicknight1]

Orcs are my personal favorite race in Skyrim. Their racial ability stacks with so much stuff, that I don't mind if they lack another passive ability like the others. Seriously, Berserker Rage + Sneak Bonus on a fully drawn arrow is DEADLY. Plus it also stacks with Werewolf form and Dragon Aspect. And I love the Conjuration spells, Dremora Lords wiping out a dungeon full of bandits for you feels *soooo* good.

[@Ludamus]

I don't know if I'll ever be able to go back to unmodded skyrim tbh lol

The "Skyrim is a game where you push goats off of cliffs by yelling at them" earned you a twofer: a laugh that woke up a very vexed wife and a subscriber. Thumbs up.

[@richterbelmont5717]

Ok as someone who had breached about 1500 hours of multiple console skyrim gameplay. And achieved the title of best and favorite game ever made. This review validates everything i already thought. Finally getting a switch and its the only game i want on it. Best review and i cant wait to check out your other videos because quite frankly your style of doing youtube is perfect. You are cool as fuck arlo. Take care man.

I’ve been playing this about a week... and I can already say without a doubt that Skyrim has become one of my all time favorite games. Like shooters, open world games are a genre I haven’t been able to dip into previously; I rarely have the time of day to sit down in front of my tv and devote the hours necessary to make much headway in a game like this. Then came the Switch, and that excuse went flying out the window and died on impact. Now, I can chip away at the game in increments during my free moments throughout the day, while also devoting entire days off from work to make some REAL progress. I dipped my toes into the open world genre with “Breath of the Wild”, and while that game is addictive in its own right, Skyrim offers so much more freedom and content, while not being as repetitive as Zelda could be at times. The graphics, while definitely beginning to show their age, are nevertheless breathtaking, especially when you get the chance to look out over the expansive, mist-shrouded mountainsides and plains. And while the combat aspect of the game is kinda simplistic, the variety of races, enemies and weapons helps to keep things interesting. I’m an Argonian. I run with the Companions, mostly focusing on one handed melee weaponry and heavy armor, though I also have a knack for stealth and utilize Destruction and Healing spells to supplement my options. The first time I fought a dragon was probably the most epic video game experience of my life. I watched as it swooped in and out of range, striking at it with arrows and Spark bolts until it was forced to land. Fighting it up close allowed me to deal some real damage with my Skyridge sword, yet also exposed me to the full force of it’s fiery breath. Eventually, we were both beat to hell, and it came down to him or me. I was left with a desperate choice: I could take a chance with my underutilized Werewolf form and see if the added brute force would win the day, or I could favor brains and strategy. I decided to gulp down a health potion for a quick pickmeup along with a resist fire potion, poisoned my blade with some Frost Spider venom, and gulped another potion to momentarily improve one-handed combat. Ultimately, that combo proved successful, and before long, there I stood, Skyrim’s newest Dragonborn, all while the most epic of epic musical scores blasts in the background, making it feel like I was the star of a big budget fantasy adventure flick. This game is every bit as addictive as it is fun, and I highly recommend people to play it in moderation; if you don’t force yourself to put it down every once in a while, it will swallow ALL of your spare time. THAT is the power of Skyrim. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna disregard my own advise and play Skyrim nonstop for the next several days... for that is the way of the Dragonborn!

[@zenviel]

Great review Arlo. Already played the game before (invested a total of 575 hours into it in fact) but still decided to watch through the video--and I've gotta say.. I don't think I'd be able to ever describe the game better. Great video, good job buddy. :)
