I just started playing this yesterday, then came in here to see what people think. I haven't read anything but this page, but if you've been able to fill 19 pages with complaints I'm impressed!
I don't like it much, but that's because all high fantasy is crap. I'm going to keep screwing around for a bit because despite hating high fantasy I do like dragons.
BTW, I call it "sky rims".

I've noticed a trend around here with games that have an ambitious scope (Deus Ex, Skyrim). People tend to put so much emphasis on the bugs and design imperfections to the extent that they're blinded to the things the game does well. That's ok! I personally don't play games because I have a fetish for stable software.

This game sucks. I have nothing else to play, and I feel pot committed, but every time I boot it up, I play for less and less time.
The people who say they "love" Skyrim -- do they finish the game? And if so, why? I don't even feel like there's a story in this world. |
You should come over and borrow some games (that aren't Skyrim).

The biggest flaw with this game is that it's really boring. Everyone wants you to do something for them, but nobody has anything interesting they want you to do. Enemies are way too few and far between, and fighting them is simply a matter of walking backwards and shooting them a bunch.
The world is really well done though, and feels mostly real.

Well, no. The inhabitants help make the world feel a lot more real. Even if it's super easy to break the illusion, the fact that there's so much activity going on makes it more real than everyone standing around waiting for you to talk to them.
I'm speaking relative to games in general, not reality.
