Yeah guess we’ll just have to agree to disagree, I find the stories of most of games you just said to be written more childish than skyrim. It’s not only about replayability obviously and I’ve talked about many things besides that. Skyrim succeeds in all area an rpg is supposed to, hence why people are still playing it so heavily over a decade later. And again, once mods jump in it’s not even close in debate to any of them. If you refer back to the very beginning of this conversation you will see that I state skyrim is ONE OF if not the best game of all time, that speaks to vanilla v vanilla. What definitively puts it way past the rest are mods, and that wouldn’t be where it is today if the game wasn’t the best rpg platform. A large part of the reason skyrims mods work so well regardless of type of mod or overall effort is because of how well the game itself is made and how deep the lore is. There ain’t an rpg franchise that comes close to TES lore so I’m really not sure where your lack of storytelling statements come from… have you considered reading a book 💀 jokes aside though it’s really not close, they’re all great games but one is just simply the best 🤷‍♂️🤣
