Could somebody explain me skyrim? I don't know what the game is about and with gameplay videos I never get the idea of a game, but why everybody treats it as the second coming of jesus?

I ask myself the same thing

The closest Bethesda game i played was only Fallout 3, and if the Skyrim is like it (minus the guns and post-nuclear war shenanigans) i can simply say: it's because is a good game/series.

Although i agree, people overreact about the game, and not only Skyrim, but with every big-hyped game too.

Well i got around 30 hours of FO3, got bored and left it like halfway the main plot because i spent all that time doing side-jobs and other stuff. That's why i'm not too fond of sandbox or free-roam games like Fallout or The Elder Scrolls, they are just "too much" for me.

Hey! I know what this thread should be called!

Either "Don't make me hungry" edition, or "Let's hate on Skyrim" edition. =P

(OK, maybe not the last one...)

Well people really like being able to run around a big open world and kill people a la GTA and if you like being able to run around doing wahatever you want/killing whoever you want and also like old school PC/western style RPG's then Skyrim kind of seems like the perfect combination of these elements.

Also the sense of discovery when they find things as Gamepro's Jason Wilson opens his review with this quote
"Wonder has always been at the heart of The Elder Scrolls. The wonder of discovering what sits on a mountain’s peak. The wonder of plunging into a cave hiding in the rock. The wonder of learning more about what’s now one of the oldest worlds in gaming. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim delivers on this wonder better than any game in the series".
"simply learning does not make one learned there are those who have knowledge and those who have understanding".

Well let's see if the Second Coming of Jesus will win GOTY.
On 5/26, something that defined a generation shall make its rightful return.  #Toonamisbackbitches.  Prepare yourselves.  Bang.

The TV show/cartoon? Never liked it, but to be honest, never gave it a fair opportunity to watch at least 10 minutes, if you are talking about something else, then nevermind.

adventure time and regular show= king of cartoons

You should give it a chance.  It's honestly pretty good.  Only time I had a problem was during the Avalon World Tour. 

Besides, it's the origin of Just as Planned.
