XC Review: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyim

I hate dungeon hunting. Oblivion was great because it had variety and a giant open world where the questing would take place. Skyrim has its exceptions. Many, and probably a majority, of the quests are clearing out ancient dragon burial grounds of their undead inhabitants to get some ancient artifact that you can't even sell. Maybe it's just me, but that was the biggest flop with Bethesda's latest installment of the Elder Scrolls series.

Other than that and most of the voice acting (which we all know barely varies with this franchise,) Skyrim was an amazing experience and I can't wait for the next (hoping for deserts). I've had the game since December/January and I'm only level 40. This just goes to show how much effort can go into this. This is the game for anyone who wants to explore, but doesn't want to get off their couch, and isn't for those who look up puzzle answers online. I can guarantee there are some tricky riddles in here and moments where you'll be on the edge of your seat.

XboxCritic Rating for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim For literally allowing the gamer unlimited hours of gameplay, the freedom to explore, and the ability to chose your own path, however with the exceptions of redundant voices and a little too much dungeon hunting, XboxCritic gives Bethesda's latest TES hit a 4.5 out of 5.
