Mike R. –
I was afraid to buy skyrim for the ps3 due to all the negative talk I heard and the bad reviews I read. But really, since patch 1.4 was released, the game is very playable on the ps3.
Now with this being said, I’d also like to say I’am in no way a fan of fantasy RPGs. I’m very picky with games. I only buy games with great replay value. I play all M rated, violent, and open world games games like Hitman, RDR, GTA…etc. And also, I’m very picky with the art style of a game. If I don’t like the art style I’m not getting it.
Skyrim simply put, is AMAZiNG!!! And this is coming from a guy that’s not into fanasy worlds involving witches, dragons, elves, and what not. This game has so much content in it, it’s somewhat unbelievable. I also noticed that online, I really haven’t seen a solid list or info of everything you can do and see in skyrim.
So what can you do and see you ask?
In skyrim there’s so many things to do and see. To start with, the inhabitants of skyrim is just great! So many people, anamials, and mythical creatures and beings it’s wonderful.
Races you can choose to play as:
Altmer (high elves)
Argonian (reptilians)
Breton (human)
Bosmer (wood elves)
Dunmer (dark elves)
Imperial (human)
Khajiit (felines)
Nord (human)
Redguard (human)
Orsimer (orcs)
Animals/ mythical beings of skyrim:
Domestic animals- chicken
dogs
cows
goats
horses
Wild- bears
drangonflys
lighting bugs
bees
moths
butterflies
rabbits
deer
moose
wolfs
saber cats
mammoths
foxes
mythical- skeevers (large rat)
mudcrabs
slaughterfish
horker (giant walrus)

werewolf
trolls
chaurus (giant insect)
hagravens (witch/bird)
mages
vampires
giants
dragons
draugr (nord zombie)
giant spiders
dwarven automatons
ghost
wisps
skeletons
spriggans (walking trees)
Things you can do:
– you can walk just about everywhere and anywhere in this game. See a mountain in the distance? Go ahead climb it. Or a building? Go in it.
– lockpick chest, gates, and doors.
– explore the world of skyrim. Discover numerous ruins, strongholds, dungeons, farms, towns,cities, and other various landscapes.
– join one of many guilds/ groups and partake in heist, assassinations, wars, and tons of other fun quest.
– do miscellaneous quest. From framing someone, giving an item to someone, or to getting hired to kill and so on. And it’s never ending because the game generates more quest for you.
– customize your character the way you see fit. Play the way you want to customize your character. Whether its your goal to be a trained marksmen in archery or a battle hardened warrior with two-handed weapons, you decide.
– hire a companion to help you on your journey for fight and to carry supplies.
– get married to one of many available NPCs (pc version you can marry anyone, but not on the consoles).
– hunt
– poison or enchant weapons and apparel to give you the edge in battle.
– make potions from items picked up in your travels.
– pick up, drag, place, and sometimes even hide items and bodies.
– ride a horse or you could use the fast travel option after discovering a location.
– interact with hundreds of NPCs in the game that all have a story to tell and make the world feel alive.
– you can kill just about any NPC in the game. But, if they’re connected to the main story or possibly a miscellaneous quest then you can’t.
– steal items from inside NPCs homes or pickpocket them while they’re out in about.
– take out a variety of different enemies in strongholds, ruins, temples, caves, camps..etc.
– read one of hundreds of the many books that are in the game that tell stories on the history and the inhabitants of skyrim.
– fight a dragon and take it’s soul to unlock shouts, or fight the many other mythical creatures that inhabit skyrim.
– as a dragonborn, use special powers called shouts to help you in combat and to communicate with dragons.
– become a werewolf or vampire.
– learn magic and become a mage or whatever you want.
– you can even get quest within quest. Its amazing. One minute you could be fighting mages in a dungeon, and then be given another side mission by a prisoner you rescued or find a letter or journal talking about a legendary treasure or weapon.
That’s a lot of it, but I know I’m missing a few things.
Skyrim is a wonderfully designed game (my opinion) both graphically and in its content, considering how massive the game is.
Graphics: graphically, everything is hand-placed, nothing looks exactly the same. Everything is made unique in the game. From the forest and winter lands of skyrim, to towns and cities to the caves, dungeons and so on. NPCs facial animations and bodies are stiff, but it’s a small thing to grip about. Sometimes it can be awkward to interact with an NPC, because they might talk to you through a building or have their back to you. But these are rare occurrences. The kill animations can also at times look weird or get blocked because of your location or the NPCs. But over all it’s good. Went you thing you’ve seen it all you’ll discover something else, and you’ll often just find yourself just looking at the world and scenery of skyrim. It’s that good!
Glitches: I bought this when patches 1.4 and 1.5 came out. Although I have run into several glitches, they have not ruined the experience and at times are funny. I’ve played for 12 hours straight numerous times while playing and not once has it crashed on me. The frame rate at times has dropped, but never for longer then a second or two. One occurrence it dropped when I was fighting 5 enemies at once in a tight hallway and fighting and magic was all going on at once. I’ve played well over 200+ hours and have fought like that other times and this was just something that happened once. So all in all the frame rate stays solid. And once after entering a cave I started floating up in the air, and after that, when I went to 3rd person, my character wasn’t there, but could still play. Just couldn’t see my character when in 3rd person. After dying, it was back to normal. and once when in a cave at the entrance, a bear floated in the air for a few seconds, but came back down. The menus often freeze for a few seconds, and water texture in certain parts of the city of Whiterun was bad at times and I noticed some frame rate drops there, and some other locations more often than others, but really, in no way was it annoying or game breaking. I’m currently at level 43 and those are all the glitches I have experienced during my gameplay.
Sound: the sound in this game is some of the best I’ve heard in a game. From the music to the sound effects. It’s all spot on. Voice acting isn’t nearly as good, with the game developers only having 70 something voice actors for hundreds of NPCs in the game, it’s not that big of a deal in my opinion, but you will hear the same voice for many different NPCs over and over again. The music in the game adjust based on what is going around you and your environment.
Gameplay: this game is an open world game and if you liked any of the things I mentioned in what you can do, then you’ll love the gameplay. Anyway, gameplay is very good. You’ll spend months playing this. So much variety and content. Although obviously over time it’ll becoming repetitive over time if played it day in and day out. basically if you let this game become your life. Haha which is very easy to do. It’s that good. Ummm….combat could have been made better, but from what I’ve heard it’s a mass improvement over oblivion. It’s good, but sometimes feels like you’re hitting nothing. Or like you’re not really packing a punch. Combats not the best but it’s solid. Companions in the the game could have also used improvement too, but it’s decent like combat.
What disappointed me: I didn’t like it in the game that you have poison, but can only use it in spells or weapons, you can’t poison food or drinks unless it’s a task in a quest. And the developers said you could do just about anything. Also, the fact that I couldn’t kill every NPC in the game kind of ruined the realism for me. I would have liked to have been able to and see how the story was affected or if it played out differently. But, again, it’s a small grip and not that big of a deal.
All in all Skyrim for the ps3 is a fun and very enjoyable fantasy RPG with lots and lots of content that’s sure to last you months if not years of great gameplay. I would recommend this game to just about anyone. You don’t have to like fantasy RPGs to like skyrim. It appeals to just about everyone. If you’re on the fence about getting skyrim, just buy it. If you only have a ps3 like me, then get it. If you have an xbox, get it on that. But even better, if you have a gaming pc, get the pc version because it’s the best quality and you get even more content. Get Skyrim!
Anon LB –
Skyrim was released in late 2011, but I didn’t get around to it until the spring of this year due to a back up of games and all the bugs it suffered from early on. In fact, let’s start with that. For a game of this size, and with all the bad press I’d been hearing (and maybe because of that), I felt it was actually very bug free. I kept a freeze counter; the first one occurred 20-25 hours in, but considering I played for almost 300 hours and experienced about a dozen more, it was very rarely a problem. As for glitched/unfinishable quests, I encountered just six (though none prevented me from platinuming the game), one in a primary quest, and five in miscellaneous objectives. FYI, I played the entire game after installing patch 1.9, which (reportedly) got rid of a lot of bugs, and added Legendary difficulty and Legendary skills – two options I could barely imagine playing the game without.
PROS: No game features more freedom; to play the quests in the order you want, to build your character the way you want, and to explore the world how you want.
The combat is way better than Skyrim’s predecessor, Oblivion.
It features an amazing world/map. My favorite part of the experience was exploring.*
There are so many ways to build and equip a character. Do you want to build a warrior-mage? Or a nearly invisible thief who kills with stealth? Or some combination of all three? There exist seven weapons (four one handed, three two handed, all of varying levels), a multitude of shields, scores of magical spells, dozens of staffs, and even (if you’re so inclined) your fists. And, of course, a vast assortment of armor and clothing to adorn your character.
No other game has done dragons as well. They look much like your traditional dragons, but are well rendered, awe inspiring, dynamic and deadly. Your first few encounters with them will be long remembered.
Loads of content/quests. Skyrim easily took the cake for the longest I’ve ever played one game: 285 hours. (Did loading screens count though?) It took about 180 hours to visit all nine cities and about 250 to complete the main quest.
Huge diversity of indoor areas. No two caves, lairs, vaults, crypts, dungeons or keeps were identical (or barely even alike). Everywhere you went you were literally seeing it for the first time. Remember Dragon Age 2? I didn’t think it was so bad at the time, but after Skyrim, Bioware should be embarrassed with the (lack of) effort put into the map variety in that game.
Grand, beautiful music that (usually) knew when to swell and when to shut up.
J’zargo!
A perfectly usable third person perspective, something sorely lacking from Oblivion.
Surprisingly unbuggy (relative to the reviews I’d read). For comparison, I played Fallout 3: GOTY edition (another Bethesda game) and found it unplayable after about the 75 hour mark (possibly due to the 15 mb save file). Skyrim was still chugging along well even at the end (with rare lagginess). Though thinking back, the key was probably that I fast traveled everywhere, spending as little time ‘outdoors’ as possible. And again, that I played entirely on version 1.9. You just have to know that with Bethesda, don’t start playing until several months after the release date.
CONS: The combat still doesn’t compare well to RPGs like Dragon Age, Demons/Dark Souls or KOA: Reckoning. It still felt too much like swinging chopsticks in front of your face.
Skyrim was probably a little too long. Instead of making the game longer/bigger, it would’ve benefited from using all that time and energy on refining it (even if it meant losing 100+ hours of gameplay). Get rid of the bugs, refine the combat, feature more enemy variety, shrink the world, and I’d be very happy with a 150 hour game.
Even after patch 1.9, it was still buggier than the aforementioned RPGs (e.g. minor quest bugs, freezing, lagginess, occasional very long load times, bodies falling through floors, weapons disappearing from hands, etc.).
Loading screens were too frequent and too long. If loading screens count toward play time, then I would’ve been under 250 hours for ‘actual playing time.’ This also goes back to the game being too long: Make the game world smaller, but reduce the frequency and times of loading screens.
It was generally too easy. (I had to change the way I played to make it more challenging.) My changes in difficulty went as such: Adept 0-20 hours, Expert 20-70, Master 70-120, and Legendary the rest of the way.
The skill/character building got a bit tedious after about the 100 hour mark. Like KOA: Reckoning, respeccing would have helped keep it fresh. (I don’t care that it was in the DLC.) Patch 1.9’s Legendary skills (that allowed you to reset a skill and regain all the perks) helped, but not completely.
It needed more ‘wow’ spells and abilities; things that made you say, ‘that’s fu–ing awesome!’ Think of the meteor spell in KOA, or ‘firestorm’ in Dragon Age. Skyrim had ‘mass paralysis’ and the Dawnbreaker sword, but could’ve (and should’ve) had more.
A small quip, but I wanted to (and thought I would) fight two dragons at once. Sadly, that never happened. The closest was when I called in my own dragon to fight another dragon, or when…
————————————————-
* While exploring, I decided to find out what was on the other side of a mountain. I made my way up past a giant statue of Talos, down a steep hill, fought two trolls, then woke an ancient dragon (that breathed fire and ice) and a draugr overlord. It took all my skills (e.g. Sanguine Rose, recharging weapons with soul gems, using potions and shouts, changing apparel) to survive that encounter. I also recall my follower, Lydia, using the Dawnbreaker sword to cause a chain reaction of explosions among a group of skeletons. It was an incredible adventure completely unrelated to any quest.
Before that, I happened upon a lighthouse and discovered a murdered family inside. That motivated an investigation that brought me into a deep underground maze populated by giant insects, and eventually to the queen herself.
Conclusion: If you like RPGs even slightly, buy this game. You can get the vanilla version, which features enough content to keep you busy for months, for about $20. Do it.

Do not look at the pegi rating, the violence is similar to uncharted 3 and great game! But by ordering it using standard delivery I got it for RS890 + shipping charges and got it two days earlier than what the prime delivery said. The prime delivery one although late will cost you 1299 rupees.buy it! Very impressed by my first Bethesda’s title
