Abstract: The province of Skyrim might be frigid, but the role-playing game that takes place within it burns with a fire few games possess. In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, you take up arms against dragons, and your encounters with them are invariably exciting--...
It's difficult to ever feel completely satisfied with a play session of Skyrim. There's always one more pressing quest, one more unexplored tract of land, one more skill to increase, one more butterfly to catch. It's a mesmerizing game that draws you i...
Immense world stuffed with varied tasks to perform, Dragon battles are a blast, Lovely art design capped by some beautiful, atmospheric touches, Enjoyable battles that you can approach in a variety of ways, Lots of compelling, selfcontained stories to experience in addition to the main one.

Very buggy, similar to past experiences with Bethesda RPGs like Elder Scrolls IV and Fallout 3; similar dungeons, landscapes and quests can get repetitive
Intensely detailed and nuanced environments, Excellent character development system
Some gameplay elements (like the economy) are just a facade, Mediocre combat system
Skyrim represents the culmination of a long balancing act, of all Bethesda's learned and mastered about epic nonlinear play. It's a triumph of freeform design, less a roleplaying game like so many popular D&D-haunted others than a glimpse of what it might...
Abstract: Interview with Ray Lederer (Concept Artist)PS3, XBox 360 & Windows PCAfter drooling over the collector’s edition strategy guide, I open up my copy of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and dive into it headfirst. I quickly learn in the beginning of the game ...
