#16: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Say what you want about me being boring, but this game controls well and there truly aren't many games like it. It's easy to take these AAA titles for granted.

I spent one summer of my childhood falling into Morrowind, so I understand what Skyrim is missing. Boosting my intelligence to 10000 and crafting rings of flying and levitation and spells of 100% camouflage is intellectually satisfying, but this game is actively fun to play from moment to moment.

There were a handful of moments in the game that actually surprised me, but mostly i just enjoyed sneaking around. Glitching horses up mountains and rubber banding them into the sky was pretty fun, too. The super dragon burps were such a good idea, too. Skyrim was just a happy gestalt of immersion, good storylines, and accessibility. There aren't any giant mushroom trees but you're not just in generic medieval land forever, either.

The only thing I missed from Oblivion was poisoned apples. But I never got into the game's mod scene, so I probably played about 10% of what I was supposed to. I simply couldn't justify putting this game (which steam says I've played for 105 hours) any lower

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.
