The editors liked

  • Vast
  • Vast world to explore
  • Dungeons and caves are wonderfully differentiated
  • Graphics and sound are for the most part incredible to behold
  • It's Skyrim
  • In VR
  • Most mods for the base game still work
  • Well written plot
  • Highly interactive world
  • Detailed role-playing
  • Superb visuals
  • Voice acting
  • Soundtrack
  • Enormous
  • Highly interactive game world
  • Provides almost limitless options for playing
  • Replaying
  • A revamped leveling system allows for more streamlined play
  • The graphics are out of this world for an Elder Scrolls game
  • And for any game of this type
  • The narrative is top of the line
  • And easily puts this in my GotY list
  • Incredible amount of content
  • World feels alive
  • More than enough improvements to the Bethesda RPG formula
  • Engaging quests
  • Great new leveling and combat system
  • Did we mention the content?
  • Mayhem and wonder can lurk behind every bend
  • Every hill
  • And every mountain
  • Main quest line is an improvement from Oblivion
  • Dualwielding and Shouts make combat more fun
  • Enchanting
  • Making potions
  • And crafting weapons is easy
  • And for some
  • Likely quite enjoyable.
  • 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.
  • Multiple control schemes for all comfort levels
  • Unofficial mod support works well
  • No VR game is larger or more complete than this
  • Freedom of an Elder Scrolls game
  • But in VR
  • Immersion and scale is pretty impressive

The editors didn't like

  • Combat isn’t very visceral
  • And victories and losses feel unearned
  • Menus and interface are terrible
  • While the world is wide open
  • Most quests and dungeons are very linear
  • Bugs abound
  • Especially with physics
  • Carries over a lot of baggage from its non-VR roots
  • Uses the original 2011 visuals
  • Not the remaster's
  • Awkward controls
  • Outdated graphics
  • Some bugs
  • Quirky interfaces sometimes frustrating
  • No multiplayer mode
  • The combat mechanics can be somewhat off – especially when fighting brain dead AI
  • Your followers are just a brain dead as the enemies
  • Skills need to be weighted differently to make it more of an enjoyable experience
  • Interface is gamepad friendly
  • Does little to take advantage of the PC platform besides the improved visuals
  • Companions are still dumb as a bag of rocks.
  • Technical issues could ruin moments for some players
  • It's too easy to go into "sneak" mode when backing up with the control stick. I've been playing the PC version of The Elder Scrolls V
  • Skyrim on my home PC
  • Which has an Intel i7 950 processor running at 3.07 GHz with 6GB of RAM and two HD 5770 videocards running in Crossfire. After 34 hours of playing Skyrim
  • I've noticed a number of things
  • Glitches and bugs frequently disrupt the immersion
  • Friendly AI is often more of a hindrance than a help.
  • Menus are pancake versions floating in space
  • Interaction elements (conversations
  • Objects) are button presses
  • Some ugly textures without mods
  • The usual Skyrim level of bugs

  • The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim ist nicht nur ein würdiger Nachfolger von Oblivion, sondern auch um einen Deut besser, und das in vielen Belangen. Auch wenn es Steuerungstechnisch Mängel hat und von einigen Bugs durchsetzt ist, bekommt man für wenig Geld ...

  • Abstract:  And here we are, Skyrim, the highly anticipated sequel to the epitome of sandbox RPGs, Oblivon, has finally arrived; and nerds-a-plenty are fapping all over their keyboards with great praise. RPGs are and likely always will be my preferred genre for ga...

  • Abstract:  Einige Spieler berichten, dass Steam Skyrim komplett herunterladen will, obwohl das Spiel im DVD-Laufwerk liegt. Das mag mancher einer zähneknirschend akzeptieren. Wer allerdings nur eine sehr langsame Internetverbindung sein Eigen nennt, dürfte sich sehr...

  • gigantische, abwechslungsreiche und lebendige Welt für Entdecker, zahllose, meist großartige Quests, Entscheidungsfreiheit mit spürbaren Konsequenzen, großartige Präsentation, enorme Sichtweite, umfangreiches CraftingSystem, orchestrale Musik und gute Sprecher
  • Hauptgeschichte nicht sehr originell, Menüsteuerung fummelig, Menüdesign langweilig, etwas unübersichtliches Questlog, blecherne deutsche Sprecher, verwaschene Texturen

  • Die erste Feststellung in diesem kommt nicht umhin, sich mit den teils immensen, an „Skyrim“ gerichteten Erwartungen zu befassen, denn mit Blick auf diese lässt sich zunächst sagen: Auch hier ist längst nicht alles Gold, was glänzt.Dementsprech...

  • Mehr geht kaum. Was Größe und Handlungsfreiheit anbelangt, sprengt "Skyrim" Grenzen. Aber auch technisch treibt das Spiel die Konsolen PlayStation3 und Xbox 360 zum Äußersten, was sich leider auch in den ellenlangen Ladezeiten niederschlägt. Dafür ist...

  • Abstract:  Ohne zu viel über die packende Hintergrundgeschichte verraten zu wollen: Das Königreich Himmelsrand steht kurz vor einer Revolution. Die Sturmmäntel erheben sich gegen die Kaiserlichen Truppen, weil sie die Unterdrückung satt haben. Zu allem Übel tauchen ...

  • Gäbe es in der Games-Branche eine Auszeichnung für das beste Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis zu gewinnen, Bethesda Softworks hätte sie sicher! Ein solches Spielemonster hat es noch nicht gegeben. Mindestens 25 Stunden planen versierte Zocker allein für die Hau...

  • Abstract:  Skyrim im Hands-on-Test: Ende September hatte PC Games Hardware die Gelegenheit, eine Vorabversion von The Elder Scroll V: Skyrim anzuspielen, die zum damaligen Zeitpunkt zwei Monate alt war - angeblich Pre-Alpha-Code. Welchen Eindruck das Spiel bei uns h...
