8/10
If you’ve never experienced Skyrim, the Special Edition is certainly an adventure you can’t afford to miss.

4/5 stars
It’s showing its age and still suffers from the trademark Bethesda bugs, but The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition is a good enough excuse to warrant a return trip or serve as an entry point to this massive game.

4.5/5 stars
A wonderful recreation of Skyrim, which remains - despite rough edges and badly-aged elements - one of the greatest RPGs ever made.

Is Humanity Restored
Sooo i'm sure many People already know about Elder Scrolls Skyrim? It's like Morrowind, but with a more brighter, shinnier shell on it. Some would say that's a good thing, & some might Disagree. The Positives are that you finally have Dragons in the Game full circle now, The World & it's Wild Life look more Colorful, & much bigger then in Morrowind, The Story is still just as fantastic as in Morrowind, & you can now even Duel Wield your Weapons & Magic Spells. You can buy a House & even get married, & have a follower on your journey adventuring the lands so that the Game doesn't feel a bit Isolated for those who want a more livable Game. Castles look & feel more like Castles now, rather then small tiny looking brick layered structures. The Combat is not terrible, your Controls are well setup. The Negatives are that Dungeons are not Dark & Creepy like they were in Morrowind, they are a bit more Open, Brighter, & less appealing, The Characters & their Clothing / Armor haven't really improved at all from Morrowind, & the night sky in the Special Edition looks worst then the night sky in the Original Skyrim. Potions & Spells that you create are less impressive then in Morrowind, your Potions & Spells are less freely creative with a lack of Freedom, & more of a bit that you have to follow specific Formulas now, at least that i've noticed. The Special Edition does make the Wild Life, Water Streams, & Water in General, as well as the World look a lot nicer looking then in the Original Edition, but the Sky, the Clothing, Armor, the People, & Trees don't improve at all, & the Fire only improves a tiny bit. I absolutely hated the Updates & Anniversary Ediiton, though. Anniversary Edition broke the Game, & the Updates ruined Special Edition. 3/5 Stars...

Missing Czech language
With release of Special Bethesda has removed an official Czech (text) language support, it went missing on Steam and is still missing here. Otherewise, Skyrim is average RPG - the story is not very appealing and nothing compels you to complete it. Most of dungeon present in the game have very generic feel to them. You've seen one and you've seen the most. Avoid this unless on 3/4 off sale.
