Watching G*mers slowly realise Skyrim is dogshit has been an experience
I was watching "...why Skyrim?" by Razbuten on sloptube this aft and it's so weird that it finally took Starfield for people to realise. Like Fallout 76 wasn't enough, only now are negative things people were first saying about Skyrim in 2012 finally bleeding into mainstream consciousness. It's so wild, like wow they ruined the magic system? The game has worse writing than a PS1 era Mega Man X game??? Skyrim is just shitty Game of Thrones?? Welcome to thirteen years ago!!
Bethesda hasn't made a really good game since 2002, but it'll probably be years before that realisation sinks in.
checks if 2002 was when morrowind was released Christ morrowind fanboys on this site are insufferable (why are there so many?)
I loved oblivion, I loved Skyrim and I loved fallout 3
Fallout 4 and 76 weren’t that great, and starfield was better than those two but still not up to snuff.
A few video essays on YouTube do not the consensus make. You can crap your pants in nostalgia all you want boomers, most people preferred oblivion and Skyrim to morrowind.
I grew up with Morrowind but couldn't really play it, spent more time in Oblivion. Also I am nowhere close to a boomer. Skyrim also pales vs Oblivion fwiw.
I don't need Skyrim to be Baldurs Gate? Oblivion is also not Baldurs gate... but for what Oblivion removed from Morrowind, it was a big technical upgrade, a lot of QoL changes and some neat world sim stuff. Skyrim is just a regression.
Sorry I have ledditors on leddit saying that too so
