Abstract: The star of the latest Elder Scrolls role-playing game is its world. Skyrim, the northernmost province of Tamriel, a continent that fans of the Bethesda Softworks series have been exploring piecemeal in games dating back 17 years, is a hauntingly beaut...
It's Skyrim in virtual reality. That's pretty much what it comes down to, and I'm fine with that. Sure, I'd rather a game built for VR. Sure, I wish it were less janky. Sure, I wish melee combat had some of the heft of Gorn. Sure, I wish it looked better...
Expansive open world to explore with an attention to detail; graphics are good without overburdening your graphics card (for PC players); skill upgrading system is very open rather than tied down to classes

Intensely detailed and nuanced environments, Excellent character development system
Some gameplay elements (like the economy) are just a facade, Mediocre combat system

Abstract: DOVAKHIIN! Dragonborn! The word vibrates through you, the thrum of power palpable. Deep inside you know this to be you, your true essence. Will you heed the call and save the world from the return of dragons? Or will you get married and open a shop with y...

Because of its diminished graphics and clumsy combat controls, Skyrim VR definitely isn't the best way to actually play Skyrim. However, if you leave the difficulty on the default lowest setting and roam the world as a god who can slay enemies with the fl...
