The elder scrolls v also known as Skyrim is the latest game in the Elder Scrolls franchise. Just 5 year ago Bethesda, the company responsible for these amazing titles, released The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion an open world RPG which has become in a very short time one of the most played role playing games of all times. This was mainly due to the fact that it offered hundreds of hours of game play, mind blowing missions with hundred of types of weapons, artifacts, magic scrolls and enemies.
Elder scrolls v is set 200 years after oblivion, and centers around a civil war that has broken out in the skyrim realm. Players will be fully immersed into this scenario. Being able to change the features of each of the 9 races you can play adds a huge dimension and longevity to the game.
Quests
Elder scrolls v follows the same format as the previous games with a number of smaller quests that can be done alongside the main missions. These side quests allow the player to get better weapons and will open up secret areas of the game and a greater understanding of the skyrim world.
Characters
In total there are 9 races in Skyrim and this means that hardcore players who will want to experience this magical land in every possible way, will have the chance of doing so easily, if they actually have the time to play them all. These races, as many already know number the Redguard, Orc, Nord, Khajit, Imperial, Dunmer, Breton, Bosmer, Argonian and Altmer. It goes without saying that each race has its own abilities and disadvantages, traits that players will need to learn how to use in their own advantage, be it when exploring the world of Skyrim or when being involved in combat.
Graphics Engine
The new “Creation Engine” is an improvement on the fallout 3 engine which allows for better graphics,special effects, subtle lighting and shadow effects. These tweaks to the game engine ensure that Skyrim is as real as possible.
Following on from some criticism form elder scrolls 4, the new game engine allows the animations to be more realistic and the game environment has more clarity and depth. Subtle shadow and lighting effects make objects and the environment as realistic as possible.
Elder scrolls v is a huge game, hundreds of hours of play are at your finger tips, the graphics and feel of the game are second to none, and it no wonder that this is now regarded as the best role playing game available.
