The editors liked
Expansive open world to explore with an attention to detail
Graphics are good without overburdening your graphics card (for PC players)

Excellent character development system
The editors didn't like
Very buggy
Similar to past experiences with Bethesda RPGs like Elder Scrolls IV and Fallout 3
Similar dungeons
Landscapes and quests can get repetitive
Some gameplay elements (like the economy) are just a facade
It's Skyrim, in VR, Most mods for the base game still work
Carries over a lot of baggage from its non-VR roots, Uses the original 2011 visuals, not the remaster's
It's Skyrim in virtual reality. That's pretty much what it comes down to, and I'm fine with that. Sure, I'd rather a game built for VR. Sure, I wish it were less janky. Sure, I wish melee combat had some of the heft of Gorn. Sure, I wish it looked better...

Abstract: It's been six long years of Skyrim, and Bethesda has just about wrung the last bit of blood out of this stone. In what seems like the inevitable conclusion for The Elder Scrolls V, Bethesda has given it one last port job, and brought it to the PSVR. What...

Although it may not be immune to the test of time, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim still holds up as one of the most immersive virtual worlds ever created in a video game. All of its vastness, beauty, characters, stories, and goofy bugs fit nicely onto the Sw...

Abstract: Skyrim is the biggest game to release in 2011. It may not have the sales numbers of, say, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, but it didn't suffer with over 10 million copies sold. And with over 100 hours of gameplay in a single run, it's by far one of the de...
Abstract: Even so called “sandbox” games that have come out recently have been disgustingly restrictive. Either that or the world rendered provides nothing more than an exercise for the obsessive compulsive to run around and collect artifacts, forgoing a fun experi...
Skyrim makes strides in the Elder Scroll franchise. It introduces important changes without touching the foundation of what made the series great: freedom. You will waste countless hours running around, discovering beautiful locations, fighting new mon...

Abstract: Today we are following up our initial review of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim by taking a look at the performance of the PC version of the game. Like the console version, Skryim for PC features an open world full of luscious landscapes, large scale cities a...
Abstract: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is almost too good for this world. Since getting my review copy, I've spent dozens of hours exploring the mountains and valleys, the glaciers and forests, the caves and ruins of Skyrim, battling dragons, and getting involved...
