Skyrim is probably one of the best games ever.

The game has alot of great things about it. The world, although maybe not as lively as other RPGs still feels lively. I have spent hours just wandering around the world lookin at the beautiful scenery. Itt is a game where you can truely get immeresed in the world. The gameplay is fun, and more light. It is simple enough for people who are new to the Elder Scrolls series (Like I was). The story is interesting enough, the soundtrack is one of the best ORIGINAL soundtracks I've heared for a video game. And the DLC is actually worth paying for, and does not rip you off.

I'd say Skyrim is much better than The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Even though in Oblivion I didn't even complete the opening mission before I refunded it, I still prefer Skyrim. There are new features in it that feel strange not to have and that's why I didn't like Oblivion after playing Skyrim.

Originally got Skyrim Special Edition on Xbox One, and I liked it there, and decided to buy it on PC because there are more mods here which could help make the play time for it grow even more, and because I can get a better frame rate* I say that but at the time of writing this review, my computer is just a Lenovo G50 and I get only 10-20 fps on low graphics, where as on my Xbox with graphics mods is 20 fps, and without mods it is 60 fps.

There are some strange glitches that I haave never encountered on Special Edition but have on the normal game. But those are probably due to mods.

I'd say DLC isn't required, because the game isn't lacking without the DLC. I have played all the DLCs on Special Edition, and I only have Hearthfire on the original, so there are some features I do think are strange to have without, but they're small things. But I would recommend getting all of the DLC for modding because a lot of the mods, including some of the best mods require all of the DLC.

In the end, I highly recommend Skyrim. I haven't enjoyed any other game in the same way as Skyrim.
