A RPG dream come True!
When I first heard about this game in 2006 after it came out for the 360 and PC, I was totally envious of my cousin, who rubbed the fact that he could play it and I could not in my face. I had a 60GB PS3, and when I found out that it was coming to my system, I was giddy with joy. I bought it the day-after it came out and began engrossing myself within the perils of the land of Tamriel, exploring the land, joining the many different guilds and striving to be the best RPG player for the game. Here is my review:
This game is a masterpiece, from it's wonderful graphics to gripping quests to a final "end-game" with Martin and Lord Dagon. The story is compelling, the amount of content to find, create, or buy is staggering, the quests are many and all so diverse, and the world that the braintrust at Bethesda created is top-notch. My only beef with the game is the sometimes awkward A.I system, the wild overuse of the few voiceovers used within the game, and the somewhat repetitive gameplay. Other than those minor blemishes, it is a wonderful game that any RPG lover will love.
Final Verdict: 5 out of 5 Stars
Pros: Addictive gameplay, loads of content, amazing visuals, epic story that allows you to proceed with what you want when you want, many places to explore and loot, etc.
Cons: Minor issues with A.I system, some annoying audio, an epic story that is so loose that it is confusing, and several minor bugs that hinder performance.
