The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a 2011 action role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is the fifth main installment in The Elder Scrolls series, following The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (2006), and was released worldwide for Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on November 11, 2011. Skyrim was developed using the Creation Engine. The team opted for a unique and more diverse open world than Oblivion's Imperial Province of Cyrodiil, which game director and executive producer Todd Howard considered less interesting by comparison.
Runs well on modern hardware.

This was my very first Steam game. :3 Not the first game I've ever played, but the first Fantasy RPG like this. I was blown away. The whole atmosphere of the game really got me and I still consider it one of my favourite games. I've played it on a laptop that wasn't meant to be a gaming laptop at all, and still it worked. Not always perfect, sometimes the adventure was actually trying to play the game on it, but always so much fun. Even little bugs and also mistakes on my end wouldn't change that. I know that the game is unlisted now, so leaving a review is probably a bit senseless, but I felt a little nostalgic and wanted to show some appreciation for it.
Try other games but allways end up comeing back to this one. Really is one of the best open world games out there for single players.
First game I ever bought. Lots of memories. This game is a religious experience.
