I’ve been watching some videos of the latest Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and every time I watch something that I haven’t seen before it just makes me want it all the more.
The latest video I saw was Todd talking about how they moved into new ground again by giving us an infinite amount of quests. I don’t understand the technical side of this but its all to do with this new engine they used which seems to be able to create quests on the fly, meaning you will never actually be able to finish everything in the game because its endless, talk about cool.
I played morrowind for what seemed like forever but this one, at least for a while, is going to be the ultimate gaming experience. The first game of its kind that doesn’t end, and lets face it, fans of the Elder Scrolls don’t really want it too.
One of the most frustrating things about really good games, is that once you’ve completed them, you have to wait like 2 maybe 3 years to get the next one, with this, we will have something to continue playing right up until the next installment.
I think my biggest worry with something this huge and open ended is whether I will get any time free to play some of the other awesome games out there. Being able to make a game that is endless certainly gives value for money, one of the biggest letdowns with games is they cost so much and when you get a game that can be completed in a few days it seems a waste of hard earned cash. With a game that is never ending we will definitely be getting our moneys worth, thanks Bethesda, now let me play it already !!!
