Skyrim at last, but no mods...
I love TES, especially Morrowind. After the lousy Oblivion, I was looking forward to Skyrim, which I would have gladly paid $300 for. Unfortunately, it turned out to be only on Steam. My IQ is above 70, so Steam's terms and conditions are impossible for me to accept. Therefore, only now, years later, thanks to GOG, I could finally buy Skyrim. And for that I give two stars. The game itself is prettier, but definitely inferior to Morrowind (no mood, no interesting quests, artificially prolonged, boring, repetitive missions in boring corridors that are always the same, with boring enemies. On top of that, the game often puts you in a situation that doesn't allow you to continue. For example, in order to go further with any thread, the player must murder someone innocent, defenseless, or steal something from such a person. I won't do it (it's not why I play to violate my entire character, value system, to make me extremely uncomfortable), so I have to leave the game, load the previous save and 80% of the further game is unavailable to me). Basically, I expected this, I was waiting for something else: the most valuable thing about these games are the modification options. I was looking forward to it. And here - a surprise. There are no tools for creating mods. They are not available for the GOG version. You can only try with ready-made mods, which is immensely frustrating, because most don't work with this bizarre GOG version. It's a huge disappointment. I'm afraid I have to go back to Oblivion, where at least I could make any modifications I wanted.
