On the other side of the coin, there’s a certain level of burnout that comes along with those almost obsessive Skyrim hot streaks that can last for weeks. In short, Skyrim is one of my favorite games of all time, as many Bethesda games eventually become. I’ve clocked 300 hours on PC alone, thanks in large part to a healthy mod scene that allows me to make each playthrough vastly different. Between PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 (yes, really – all three platforms), my time playing Skyrim totals somewhere in the multiple hundreds of hours.

Any RPG fan should play an Elder Scrolls game at some point, and Skyrim is arguably as good as any of them.īut what if you’ve played Skyrim to death already? That’s the camp I fall into.

For seasoned RPG veterans, Skyrim has lost some of its luster over the past few years, but for those who have yet to see what it has to offer, it’s definitely worth a purchase. Before we really dive in, let’s just get this out of the way first: if you’ve never played Skyrim, you enjoy RPGs, and you own a Switch, you should absolutely buy it.
