Review: Skyrim

Posted on 12.14.2011

4 stars.

Remember that old adage that lightning never strikes twice? It’s a lie. Bethesda Softworks has consistently delivered, both in its in-house development and the games it publishes. “Skyrim” is no exception. It exemplifies a commitment to providing exemplary games to the public. This is far from a perfect game, filled with humorous glitches and bugs, but therein lies the charm. The intricately drawn world is filled with memorable characters, battles,  caves, ruins and more. The game is truly the player’s canvas, upon which he or she may paint his or her masterpiece. Want to be a shield-toting, mace-swinging barbarian? Go for it. Prefer a stealthy femme fatale armed with your wits and a dagger? The choice is yours and the possibilities are truly limitless, which is the best aspect of the game. This is escapism at its finest. The biggest question facing readers of this review is this: “Why haven’t you started playing yet?”
