    (2013/2018) Uno de los mejores juegos que he jugado en mi vida y uno de los que mas horas le he dedicado cerca de 600 horas sumadas entre todas las plataformas en las que lo he jugado.

    I played Skyrim on PS3, Xbox 360 and the Anniversary Version on Xbox One (meh). This is not the best version of the game, but pretty solid! Overall rating: 8.6.

    Listen. The game is absolutely AMAZING. But the lag is a big issue. But I still feel some of these scores are atrocious and undeserved for this masterpiece. I know that Bethesda refused to fix the game, but they had a point. Fixing the lag would require an entire overhaul of the creation engine. I played the PC version, ps4, ps5, and ps vr version as well as this one. I know the lag is anListen. The game is absolutely AMAZING. But the lag is a big issue.

I know the lag is an issue, but having over a hundred zero out of ten reviews is not deserved. Most of these reviews are outdated and before patching efforts took place. Everything else about Skyrim is absolutely amazing and would play a hundred times over. The story, the combat, skills, ALL of it. I play games like Red dead Redemption two, Horizon: Forbidden West, all of that. But Skyrim is that one game that always has me coming back for more. And you bet yo sweet a** that I’m going for platinum in this masterpiece of a game on the ps3. Expand

    I think it's kind of insane how many people gave 0/10 user score even back in the days when the game literally were so revolutionary "gamewise" that it blew peoples minds.

    The game itself is very good though quests much shallower than Morrowind and Oblivion. DLC is good. The PS3 version, though, is a buggy mess, with a large enough save file the game becomes unplayable.

    Had so much fun first experiencing this game as a kid. Fun nostalgia and replayability make me remember fondly of this game.

    game is great, don't care about opinion, look, these sure don't know how to evaluate history, gameplay and vast exploration of the open world, they are true god of war fans

    More than 10 years after this title's initial release, I still see Skyrim as my gold standard when rating action RPGs, and I have played it on 3 separate platforms, because it is just that good.

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim doesn't quite capture the magic of Oblivion. However, it's still a great game.

    The Elder Scrolls is one of the premier RPG series around the globe. Skyrim, much like its predecessors does not disappoint. The game has phenomenal lore, worldbuilding, characters, and oozes charm and freedom. The roleplaying options are vast and immersive. Do you want to be a stealthy rogue who betrays and skulks about? Do you want to be a righteous Paladin dedicated to law and order? DoThe Elder Scrolls is one of the premier RPG series around the globe. Skyrim, much like its predecessors does not disappoint.

Or do you want to steal bread and eat it in your house alone with your Argonian wife? Well those are all valid and viable options for one to partake in. This game is simply put an astounding work of art and everyone owes it to themself to give this game a gander. Expand

    Man Skyrim on any platform is just amazing. You can make Skyrim for the Game Boy and I'd probably play the heck out of it.

    Tremendous, incredible game. Even though this version is perhaps the worst version out there when it comes to performance, large save files made game unplayable, framerate near to release was terrible, freezing was terrible, bugs were terrible But still I've had such a blast on this game that I've played for 200 hours and then created new characters.

    Extremely fun game. Lots of unique builds you can do with your character. Even more unique builds with mods. Story is pretty good. Dialogue is alright. Huge open world with lots of dungeons to explore and clear. Dragons to fight and draugr to kill. Lots of things to do in this game. Amazing Game. Lots of Quests and sidequests to complete.

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is without doubt the most influential RPG of the modern era. It was released for PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, Xbox 360 and PS3. The game´s gameplay is beyond epic. But I have to say, the PlayStation 3 is the worst adaptation of Skyrim. The graphics are stale and I found many bugs. Nevertheless, the game is very great and I´ve spent months in its dungeons!

    PS: Get the Legendary Edition with all DLCs! They are grande!

    Loved skyrim, loved being a vampire, werewolf, wizard and warrior. Not sure why so many bad reviews unless its spamming.

    Best RPG (along with Witcher 3) I have ever played. Although its main story lacks depth, Its map and side quests are some of the best in the entire genre. Its an extremely long but addicting and beautiful journey.
    10/10 Must play.

    Super buggy, but you can play for thousands of hours and still fine new places to explore and quests! Very customization depending on your favorite play style or if you like to role play

    They fixed it! Besides the technical problems and long loading times, Skyrim is a great game. The world is truly open to explore. The quests are diverse and intriguing. Most characters have distinct personalities. The leveling system isn't perfect but does make the progression have an impact.

    Skyrim is a legend. It’s my favorite game, best adventure i ever played. All game is one big journey, and after lot’s of years main theme of Skyrim (Jeremy Soule - is a genius) every time makes me goosebumps. One of the reasons to live!!!

    This is a game full of emotions for gamers who are willing to embrace it. A beautiful fantasy land that makes loading times a thing of the past and is full of surprises. Not only do you get a lot of variety in the locations, the gameplay offers a lot of different experiences as well. [December 2011, p.66]

    I enjoyed Skyrim and I look forward to the DLC that we know is inevitably coming. If we looked at this honestly, though, this game probably should have been pushed back a month or so for more polish. It needed it and it still does.

    Skyrim is a gorgeous production that truly does justice to the words "roleplaying game." It doesn't just tell us a story, it gives us the chance to tell a story of our own. At its best, that's what an interactive art form should be all about. [Jan 2011, p.73]
