SKYRIM REVIEW
Skyrim a big open world RPG of a game , that starts with you heading to your own execution , not a very good start you think , then waiting for your turn on the chopping block , your saved by the appearance and soon after attack of a dragon , this is where the game starts for real , helped by a fellow prisoner who shows you the basic controls in your bid to escape , a little bit of one of two handed sword play , healing yourself , destruction spells , bow and sneak are all there to try. Sneaking through the castle down into the tunnels you emerge to an open world that just takes your breath away ,now which way do I go ? And there you have it enjoy ! I say this because whatever decisions i make after that point are going to be different from yours be it going left or right , do you go in that cave or push on and see what's over that hill [ always over the hill , come back to the cave later ! ] Your main quest in skyrim see's you finding out that you are dragon born and have the ability to absorb the souls of dragons that you kill , could you be the one of legends , sent to see the greybeards to test and teach you a new power to summon a dragon soul as a shout and set about finding out why the dragons are back , But that's not all, When you embark on your adventure for heriocness you will come accross many feard monsters out there in the open world. From giants to vampires!. As you play the game and familiarise yourself with the creatures you will know when to make the decision to take on the beast or run..The main quest there is so much more ! There are different towns for you to visit , Whiterun is the first town you come across , it towers above a vast plain edged by snow capped mountains In it like all the towns you will find side missions to go , just talk to just about anyone in town or listen in on what is being said to find out who has a quest , be it big or small each quest sends you out to explore the map. In Whiterun you can join the companions swords for hire with a bit of a twist , offering you the chance to become a werewolf [ so cool ! ] Anyway each town has a faction or guild for you to join , take the town of Riften which has the thief’s guild wanting your help to get them back to their former glory , throughout the game you will come across people who for a fee will teach you one of the many skills you have at your disposal from one handed sword to bow or several types of magic , take for instance for the thieves guild , sneaking and pickpocket come in useful [if it's red don't take it ,this means you Craig ! ] Skyrim has a level up tree for each of the skills and you choose which ones you need or use the most blade , bow or magic it's all up to you , join the mages guild learn to be a kickass wizard , help the stormcloaks take back their land or just wander around and explore you will put a silly amount of hours into this game . 10/10
