8. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Let’s Play featuring the first half hour of the game

The Elder-Scrolls V: Skyrim is the story of a prisoner of unknown origins, guilty of unknown crimes being brought before the executioner’s block in the cold land of Skyrim.

Luckily an evil dragon puts a stop to the execution and the player escape with his life. From here the player can roam the world freely, doing quests, killing monsters, and shooting arrows into knees.

Skyrim is a free form, open world action RPG, where you chose your own race, gender, playstyle and story.

For example; play as a giant battle-axe wielding Nord as you explore the mountains, woods and rivers of the epically beautiful land of Skryim while battling dragons, collecting loot, and befriending (or murdering) the local population.

What your character looks like is completely up to you. Here is a large, rough and badass looking Nord (Viking) warrior. But it could just as easily be a short and skinny wood-elf with pointy features and sharp arrows. It's up to you.

Combat in The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim is fluid and intuitive, the right mouse button controls your right hand, while the left button controls your left hand. If you have a shield you can block before attacking, if you have two spells you can combine them for increased power.
