Skyrim is still as popular as it always has been even for vanilla version, no mods. You get someone who's never played it even now, they will quickly get hooked. I have well over a hundred plus hours into the game. And I still haven't beat it yet. If that's not telling, I don't know what it isn't
The way your voice is oddly more on the right side of my stereo headset and the music and other sounds aren't kind of sucks. Hope you fix it for the future.
Every work trip i go on, i bring my switch and play skyrim when i get off for the day. This naturally gives me a "skyrim phase" every few months or so. Even after 2k hours on other platforms, i still find questing and building my characters up to be fun. Also, just a bit of feedback, your voice is slightly louder on the right side of my headphones than the left side. Probably something to look into on the editing side, but good video overall 👍
It is still really fun. And thanks for the feedback. I don't have an actual mic right now so the audio quality is pretty dogwater. Hopefully I can get one soon.
The problem with Skyrim is the fundamental gameplay loop is awful. I spend all my effort to level up my charater until either 1) the game becomes ridiciliously easy or 2) the game punishes me for using everything i've invested in. So first play through, i built an archer. Until my archery skills maxed out and then I couldn't progress... unless I started using swords or magika in which case I instantly gained lots of progression. So now the game is making me not want to use the weapons i invested the entire playthrough in! Then I built a two handed heavy weapon build, but because I knew about the vampire perks from the first play through, i became completely over powered and was one hit killing most things. Everything you said is true, but the core of the gameplay is trash.
That's a really good point. After you know everything and know what the best stuff is, the gameplay does suffer. But the other good things always overshadowed that for me.
@@WaltIsHere1 I haven't played it for a long time so I've forgotten the names, but there's a perk you get as a vampire that makes all the others 30% stronger. That completely broke the game for me as I was so overpowered, even on the hardest setting. I could just tank damage and kill everything in 1 or 2 hits with 2 handed weapons. A far bettter game in my opinion is Witcher 3. Your base stats are really low and you use temporary buffs just to get through regular battles. The fact that they are temporary and limited is what makes it a fundamentally better gameplay loop than Skyrim where your base stats get overpowered.
I agree. I've actually been playing Witcher 3 for the first time and I've REALLY enjoyed it so far. The gameplay is incredibly fun and satisfying and I love how much side content there is.

Its magical. And now its pretty much an engine for modding you can make it anything you want it to be
I know, that's my favorite part. There's always something new to try and it's awesome
I inevitably come back to this game. It’s the only game I purchased actually. The rest I just “rent” from Xbox live

The game is really shit. I have no idea how it became such a meme for being amazing.
