https://www.youtube.com/shorts/3Uz-pXK5B4MWhy are they like this? It's as if this game replaced sex for an entire generation and it's all they can think and talk about. It's not as good as Oblivion ffs.
>>724744784It's a timeless masterpiece unironically
>>724745178It's a shallow game of thrones clone
>>724744784Fallout 3 > Oblivion > Morrowind > SkyrimI remember buying Skyrim at midnight launch and enjoying it but still being disappointed at how dumbed down and soulless it was compared to Oblivion.
>>724745836You're retarded
>>724745994>F3 anything but rock bottomI think your brain has been poisoned by irony.
>>724745836>GRRM invented civil wars and dragonskek
>>724746082Fallout 3 is kino wtf are you smoking
>>724745994>Oblivion before Morrowind and Skyrimopinion disregarded.
>>724745836game of thrones is a war of the roses clone with dragons and snow zombies tacked on
>>724746142>giants with pet mammoths>seperate kingdoms with animal sigils>blue eyed ice zombiesI mean the guy's right, everyone acknowledges Bethesda obviously took a lot of cues from the biggest fantasy craze at the time for Oblivion (LOTR) to think they didn't do the same for the biggest fantasy craze at the time fo Skyrim is ignorant.
>>724746071>>724746142Retards, the environment and artistic direction are a 1:1 of GoT, everyone was commenting on it back in the day how shameless it felt
>>724746204Even as a small child playing Fallout 3 I could tell it was a bad game. I’m sorry anon but there’s a reason it’s widely considered the worst in the series.
>>724744784skyrim is a millennial game most zoomies play fotm and multiplayer slop or gacha
Don't care how normie it isI'm a Millennial and I love Skyrim.
>>724746082Fallout 3 is just Oblivion with guns, gore, better combat, better locations, and better quest design.
>>724746346>small child playing Fallout 3>thinks the opinions of a retarded child matterdie you fucking zoomer subhuman
>>724746346>worst in the series>when 4, 76, tactics, and bos existit's not perfect but it's far from the worst fallout has to offer
>>724744784zoomer women are all chad-only so the only source of beauty and warmth in the zoomer male life is memories of a better time
play skyrim
>>724746620with Marie!
>>724746391>>724746394Skyrim is the quintessential zoomer game. Millennials have shitblivion and boomers have niggerfall.
>>724745994Same, I quit after you talk to the grey beards
>>724746767don't know a single zoomie that likes skyrim, millennials were naming their kids dovahkiin
>>724746767>>724746926Zoomers were playing Skyrim on release you dumbasses, just not on PC.
>>724746989you're full of shit
>>724746926millennials are trend hopping trannies
>>724746989the oldest zoomers were 14 when skyrim was released, the majority were actual babies/still being born>>724747061
got some modded skyrim https://youtu.be/DjLMKpIrAzM
>>724747368lol
>>724747368>world ending cataclysmic magic>structure is rigid>npcs unfazed"I ain't got all day"lmao
>>724747368looks terrible tbqh
>>724747152>the oldest zoomers were 14 when skyrim was releasedYes, so it's a zoomer game. It was played by zoomer tweens and teens.
>>724745178What a gay opinion
>>724746989Am zoom zoom, I was -1 years old playing skyrim on release
>>724747152I read an old sci-fi book where part of the background story talked about how most people were gay in the future. Apparently it helped with over population
>>724749687we're overpopulated with the shittiest types of people, the solution is genocide
>>724749629Zoomers were playing Skyrim when they were 10-14 years old.
>>724749725gay misinformating fucktarded faggot fuck, the whole generation was underaged, the majority of it were under 10
>>724747368Imagine what those bandits thought
>>724749725Im aware of that. I am telling you that I was stomping dragons at conception, I was -9 months old
>>724749864It's a zoomer game, zoomers born in 1997-2001 played it growing up. Millennials had Daggerfall.
>>724744784I prefer Oblivion but it really is an excellent game with high production value and an amazing atmosphere. I don't understand why you can't just let people enjoy things. It is the lack of the loving wife and children? You don't have to be like this.
>>724749864Tbh sam a lamb, I thought all zoomers were 10 and younger. I didnt realize they start in 97. I guess thats how genx felt about millenials
>>724745178Based and factual pilled.
>>724749960>4 years of the 15 year generation played itkys
>>724750005I mean really think about it. It's Saturday night. Autumn is settling in and you're on 4chan mad cuz someone made a YT Short (why are you even looking at that shit?) about a nearly decade and a half old game. Did you wait 5 minutes to make this thread or do you pay your hard earned money for a pass to post this mess?
>>724750179Yes, that makes it a zoomer game. Do you not know how generations work? Early zoomers are zoomers too.
>>724750187Im just waiting for modded skyrom to boot, it takes about 3 minutes...
>>724750340the generation was being born as the game releasedthe generation that were grown playing it were millennials, it's a mature rated game, that filters even more zoomers from playing it, they couldn't buy it for themselves. Your 3 year gap of tweenage zoomies that maybe played it if they had a cool older brother or parents that bought it for them is fraction of a miniscule fucking fraction of a minority
>>724746926>millennials were naming their kids dovahkiinHe's 14 now btw.
>>724745178nigga it was outdated on release also they had to remaster it and memoryhole the original because it looks like utter shit
>>724750637Looks like shit compared to what? It's an Xbox 360 game with a fairly large world what other game did it better?
>>724746346I remember liking it less than Oblivion back in the day, and Oblivion is already pure shit.
sheeeeit how did this happen?
>>724751065mods folder vs skyrim folder
>>724750859>Looks like shit compared to what?Objectively looks like shit
>>724751001I loved oblivion. I remember renting it from blockbuster, not knowing anything about it at the time other than it was the morrowind sequel. >>724751281and here is what that looks like
>>724751629Ok.. good talk
>>724751885
>>724751629sounds like you have a skill issue for not being able to make it look nice
Emil's greatest contribution was making Bethesda stealth much more Thief-like
>>724745178FPBPAnyone who says otherwise is only exposing himself as a cretin and a poser
>>724751885Why so much darkness during daytime?
>>724753729I had HDR enabled on my monitor so it was much lighter to me in game. I didnt realize how dark it was until I started posting screenshots to /v. Since then, I disabled HDR and ive tweaked out a bit of that contrast
>>724753729And there is a large wall behind my character
>>724753729that's how it is irl
>>724754356>>724754440The shadows in the image are nice, but they're too dark for daytime.
>>724745178Faggot
>>724754989>I dont understand words
>>724755175>I'm a faggot
i really cant think of any game that matches the feeling of adventuring through a beautiful snowy skyrim landscape at night with jeremy soules music playing i cant imagine how dead inside you have to be to not only not enjoy this experience, but actively SEETHE about it for years on end if i was so cynical and contrarian that i couldn't enjoy something so utterly and simply pleasant, i would unironicaly anhero
Skyrim has top-notch atmosphere, it's just that the gameplay is disappointing which is obviously important. It's a really nice world to just chill with and get lost in. Modding the game is in itself also oddly enjoyable.
>>724745178Fippy Bippy
>>724745178fpbp
>>724755268I dont give a shit who you like
>>724755891i agreeTainted Grail has pretty good first person combat. In the beginning, not so much, since you're so weak you have to cheese it at times.
>>724755891It is cathartic >>724755537Yep, enjoying it 14 years later while others seethe
>>724744784pace of the game is kind of slow since it's just oblivion expanded by like 4 times which necessitates the use of a horse. this wouldn't be a problem if you could cast a spell that made you faster. somebody actually went through the trouble of putting area appropriate encounters around every single road in the game along with a random event list that dwarfs games like rdr2.
>>724756501Its smaller than oblivion when you factor out the mountains that you cant really do anything with. And then the towns have like 4 houses. I added a wayshrines mod to my game, but its survival and you cant run everywhere because it burns stamina
>>724744784Zoomer here.Words cannot begin to describe how badly designed and overrated Skyrim is as a video game. In some parts, it's better than Oblivion in terms of atmosphere and tone. But the main point of this game is that it's essentially a modding sandbox for Nexus in that you need so many fucking mods just to make the game FEEL less empty and more bearable. That's not a good example of game design if you either need mods to enhance your experience OR you still feel unfulfilled playing the base game and DLC's and feel like you could use more. Skyrim's ingenuity is that it did help encapsulate the fantasy zeitgeist in one fell swoop and catered to all kinds of audiences. It's accessibility and approach in design was also what made it stand out compared to its predecessors.Overall, I would definitely say that while it hasn't replaced sex (in fact, what's crazy is that this is THE game for all the sex mods on Nexus), it can't help make it feel like it's better than that. Morrowind is still the best RPG in TES in spite of its limitations and I still prefer it to Oblivion or Skyrim by a longshot. If you're literate and are capable of critical thinking, you're more than likely to succeed when playing it.
>>724757950Are the sex mods good yet? Last time I tried it they were still extremely clunky (several years ago?)
>>724758075Kind of an ironic and redundant question to be asking in a thread that's arguing on whether or not Skyrim has replaced sex but yes if you care to ignore the bugginess and clipping issues. Ostim Standalone is the standard everyone leans on.
>>724757950>how badly designed and overrated Skyrim isCompared to what?
>>724750547>it's a mature rated game, that filters even more zoomers from playing it,Imagine believing this, kek. I bet you asked your parents if you could watch porn as well.
>>724758784I've seen a lot of people make this claim but never give a proper alternative to Skyrim that's better. The earlier Elder Scrolls games have a different setting and tone which make up Skyrim's main appeal.
>>724758784>>724761564If we had to compare, I would say Gothic 3 and Morrowind are amongst the most similar of comparisons in terms of design, nuance, and complexity. Tainted Grail as a recent example. Even Elden Ring, too, feels less emptier than Skyrim. And that's saying a lot.
>>724762545Any with a Nordic setting and tone similar to Skyrim?
>>724762545>Tainted Grailthe wife options in that game are fucking abysmal even by WRPG standards
>>724762982Tainted Grail>>724763259that fact it even has waifu's is a leg above others.it really is only 2 options, and I didnt do the dudes. the other options are one-time things or literally kills you. I can't complain about the other options, as I see them as more quests than romances, but I can complain about how abrupt the romance is with Alysa.
>>724762545Have you played Gothic 3? It's empty as fuck.
The freedom offered by skyrim is still unmatched to this dayEvery "open world" turd that gets released is just corridors stapled together with invisible walls
>>724764905>leaving home at dawn>it's still dark but the trees and mountains can still be made out from their contours>take a stroll down the main road>see a beaten path you didn't know was there, follow it>wind up in a cave, enter it>have blast, the best time of your life uncovering a dark secret just under your nose, ultimate kino>leave cave, it's night now>go home>lay down beside hot wife and sleepKino
>>724764540>that fact it even has waifu's is a leg above others.honestly they shouldn't have bothered, your choices are between two used goods who won't shut up about their exes, even in a fantasy world there's no escaping the eternal roastie
>>724765227Can't speak about Beor, but Alysa only mentions Duncan in the beginning when it still involves him. Even then, it's not like she's going on and on about hung he was or something, she literally admits there was no love in it whatsoever. I don't know if it's because I'm older and I've slept around before I turned into a recluse, but this doesn't bother me at all.
>>724764540>Tainted GrailThis isn't Nordic, it's some weird Polish take on Celtic Arthurian legend
>>724755537This, exactly. IMAGINE cucking yourself out of a kino experience for no good reason. Just play the fucking game, take it for what it is and let it do its thing, you'll see.
What are the chances tES6 isnt ass
>>724765734well you said similarotherwise, no, there is none worth playing
>>724755891Yeah, but it could have been a great game. Things like Magic being utterly useless, quests being absolutely retarded, the gameplay being absolute retard, the UI being pathetic, etc, didn't have to happen. In fact if you look at it closely Skyrim is objectively a bad game.It just gets a pass because muh open world, and because you can mod it to have giant titty giantess getting BDSM pregnant with your seeds in your basement.
>>724765985It gets a pass because there's nothing with the same setting that does it better
>>724766127Which is a very sad indictment about the video game industry, really. That a 4/10 game with absolute shit gameplay, shit quests, shit absolutely everything, is still seen by zoomers as the best and we never surpassed it.Fuck.
>>724765985How is being able to mod your game to suit your specific tastes not a good thing? There's no other game on the market with this kind of modding potential. Sure, Sims and Mincraft has mods out the ass, but none of them offer the shit that Skyrim does. And no, I'm not talking specifically about the lewd mods.
>>724755891That one elder scrolls phone game has better gameplay than skyrim funnily enough.
>>724744784>It's as if this game replaced sexIt did for me for a few months. I'd fap to my heavily modded female Khajiit doing lewd expressions all the time.
>>724764905>>724765092Played 1k hours and im still finding shit. Just realized about an hour ago that ive hardly done anything in falkreath
>>724766306Skill issue. Mod it till its good. Don't give me that bullshit about modding either. I know vanilla sucks, but you can turn it into anything else if you aren't lazy
>>7247658470
>>724746926>don't know a single zoomie that likes skyrimI know some.
>>724755891I like the gameplay, but I stopped caring about TES as a setting.
>>724745178>>724753616This
>>724744784>haven't touched skyrim in years>re-install skyrim SE and essential mods>difficulty keeps resetting to the easiest, survival mode auto-turns off>apparently a change happened in a recent skyrim patch, SkyUI team refused to update their mod out of principle and blamed the SKSE team instead (the fuck?)>google searches tainted by false info and drama>download one of the SkyUI sub-mods of the several in circulation that supposedly fixes this>woops i got the one that causes semi-random crashes and disables autosaves, lost 1 hour of progress>uninstalltoo much autism to botherthe craziest part for me was finding out that many modders will omit core installation instructions from the main page of the mod and will instead expect you to dig through the discussion section for their posts
>>724770149Just use wabbajack
>>724770149Open the .ini file and change a single number. Set the difficulty to what you want and put the file read only, problem solved
>>724770149the only necessary skyrim mods are the unofficial patch, vanilla purist's mod, and achievements enabler
>>724744784Skyrim is the peak of Bethesda's approach to making games. I heard it described as "roleplaying that you're playing an RPG" because there's enough stuff in it for you to immersive and enjoy yourself but nothing that's remotely deep enough for you to actually roleplay within the systems of the game, so you just end up imagining contexts that aren't really there.This turns Skyrim into a more personal game and it means it's flaws become it's best qualities>It's not as good as OblivionEh. Oblivion has more RPG elements in it, but it's an uglier game with a less interesting world and duller action.
>>724744784zoomers like atmosphere and skyrim has a unique vibe to it
>>724745178This.The last good sandbox RPG with good moddability. Everything that came after has been worse.
>>724751001>>724746268>>724746916Oblivion has the best quests in the series.>>724745994>>724746204Fallout 3 is the last time Bethesda ever tried to make good side quests.
>>724774830wrong
>>724776404kys faggot
>>724778724now what?
