  • I am completely enthralled in the world of Skyrim every time I play it. I just love being immersed in a world that is full of fantasy yet feels so realistic though. I feel that all three of my characters are an extension of my if not each a different life. I have now played in total of an estimated 100 hours (stat found through save files) and I still find different stuff everyday.

  • Holy shit, a sets channel sweat shirt. Brings back memories.

  • I have Oblivion and Skyrim for my 360 and love both of them.

    I also like doing the achievements for both Oblivion and Skyrim.

    I agree it is a game to play for sure.

    At first I was annoyed at talking to people and getting a quest as it seems every one you talk to has a quest but I don't mind that any more and use the quests to level myself up.

  • i have never played any game in the series,but i've been wanting to try this one out.partly due to the hype it's had,and also because of what i have seen.i just gotta make sure i'm ready to start it,if it's as immersive as it is..yeah.your impressions and description of the game were very insightful and i understood things like how you'd not want to share gameplay and rather play on your own.i can relate to that

  • @SirenoftheVoid I'd say go ahead and try it out. You really don't have to know the story of the past four games to understand the story of Skyrim.

  • @merritt2014 i would have played this sometime this year anyway whether you suggested or not.but thanks

  • You made me want to give it a try! =]

  • I thought you were going to impersonate the voices of the characters in skyrim lol xb

  • Just got dark souls tday gonna get skyrim when i finish it:)

  • @bejaises1 lol i cant even pass half of the game :P its hard... not that hard but you die a lot

  • love the Sega Channel hoody

  • Clearly he filmed this video before his game crashed 30 times, deleted all his saves, misplaced the NPC's central to the quests he was on and the world was filled with deceased backwards flying dragons.

  • I think 160+ hours is well worthy of a DLC. I can't wait to see what the first one is going to be!

  • @SatchelKleyn The first piece of DLC is already out. Check Steam it does not include content. They said there plans are not to expand, but to get bugs worked out and make it look better. It be a while before an content for skyrim will be out. They think it is big enough.

  • Skyrim is amazing without a doubt. But I put it down and went back to Morrowind. It's more of a challenge to me then Skyrim was. I put Skyrim on Expert and it was tough but was still easy. Morrowind is wear the challenge is.

  • I watched this about a month ago and found it boring. Now that i have Skyrim and have played for 75 hours this is one of my favorite videos by Pete!

  • Currently about 65 hours in, I've done a fair bit by now but there's still a heck of a lot left to do. As of right now I will say that for me Skyrim isn't anywhere near as enjoyable now as Oblivion was when I first played that (4 years ago). Nevertheless I am definitely enjoying Skyrim and it's a terrific experience in its own right.

  • It's best sandbox game. But as RPG, it's just average.

  • I put 20 hours into this game, my first weekend with it! I bought my house at Whiterun and furnished everything! This game is the best!

  • Comment removed

  • I've never played any of the other Elder Scrolls games before, but I just had to get Skyrim. It seemed so awesome from the trailers, but I was wrong. It was godlike. I can't even begin to describe how much I love the game, so I'll just settle with stating that I've invested 250+ hours in it so far.

  • @ja000k O_O

  • I'm only 6 hour into the game, but from what I've done so far, it's pretty damn awesome.

  • PC or Console? Which is the best to play this game?

  • @VisualReplay I have an great spec pc, but decided to get this for the xbox... for how long i will be playing it, the sofa and a hugh tv was the best option.

  • @ResidentRetro you can connect your pc to the tv and use an xbox controller noob. pc is superior.

  • @leopower7 The pc may be superior, but your Etiquette is not. They really need to ban no lifers from youtube. ^^

  • @ResidentRetro etiquette? are you fucking serious? go back to your 7 star hotel, YOUR HIGHNESS

    fuck u!!

    and it's not "pc may be superior", it IS SUPERIOR!

  • You play like me, I'm now 70 hours in and I have still a city or two I haven't visited also I haven't done the main story quest yet. Playing it little by litte, when you happen to reach the main quest location makes it feel so much more EPIC and the level of immersion is vast! I've swept the map for hidden caves and dungeons and had good time doing so, without any quicktravelling also. Skyrim is also great because it cant throw big curveballs to make your journey more surprising ;)

  • Skyrim is awesome, and probably the best openworld games ever. Just like fallout3 but they managed to make it even better. The few things it lacks are a good inventory system on pc (too simplified to use by console controllers perhaps ?) and ugly graphics at some distance and some textures viewed near, but at medium ranges it looks pretty/fotorealistic or even better than real life. (i play bf3 on high graphics).

    To sum up: IMO on par with Mass Effect1 & KotoR. And has some same problems too.

  • My friend got this game 1 week later he was fired(Means Dumped in Scotland) cos' His he never called his girlfriend the whole time. :D

  • i played Bethesda rpgs like oblivion, fallout 3 and fallout new vegas and i didn't really enjoy them.I was looking at the reviews for skyrim and noticed that the level system was different (like how you don't need a certain amount of speech or alchemy ect) because in oblivion and fallout i found that everything relied on your level and traits, but in skyrim its completely different.so i bought it, and its probably the best video game i ever bought! Skyrim is and by far, one of the greatest games

  • I like it because every person you come across is a potential friend too!

  • Why I love Skyrim, It is my favourite game of 2011 because I had never played Oblivion and I am not a big RPG fan. I love it.

  • Eh, while I love the TES series, they've all gotten progressively worse since Morrowind. Morrowind was by far the most expansive, most unique game. Countless NPCs, massive amount of weapons,...Then Oblivion comes, an extremely good game, but to my surprise, no tantos, no spears,..I was confused at first, but the game was still five-star easily. Then Skyrim,...Pretty much everything in this game is generic to me. Go to x location and get x item, same spinning icon puzzles,..Big step backwards.

  • if this is the best game you have ever played then i guess i will go get it cause it looks like you own a shit load of games

  • the best part about skyrim is that everyone's experience is different

  • I've played oblivion and I got skyrim for christmas and it is just so much better and more intense

  • games been out for about two months now, you still playing regularly? Still think it's one of the greatest games ever? cuz I do. :p

  • Good video, and game review. its def my fav game.

  • SKYRIM RULES!!!!

  • Dude I said the same thing! I started RPGs in 1989 w Dragon Warrior NES and this very well may be the greatest game iv ever played

  • skyrim is nuuts i played my ps3 till its death, literally. Two Dragons were attacking me at the same time some guard from white run i believe asked be to pay the bounty or go to jail for the crimes i committed. All this action caused my old fat 80g to over heat and crash and i got the Yellow light of death... funny thing is I still love the game. Thanks for the spot on review PeteDorr I can relate to your experience an enormous game ( And I only played 10 hours around) pccee

  • The only 2 things I didn't like about Skyrim is no arena, and the Jarls strongholds are tiny compared to the castles in Oblivion. I loved sneaking around the restricted areas on Oblivions castles going thru the queens jewlery box... great times. Other then that I feel Skyrim is superior in every way.

  • I love this game

  • @ClassicGamesReborn You only have a shitty tv , Just get an lcd 40 inch and stfu

  • wat is on your top five

  • I'm a nord !

  • Oblivion was my first Elder Scrolls game and I've never played Skyrim, Morrowind or the other two games. I'm only an hour into Oblivion so I have a good time ahead of me...

  • i love skyrim more then oblivion (i loved oblivion) but overall skyrim and morrowind feel more like a adventure then oblivion so skyrim>morrowind>oblivion

  • This game is amazing playing it for my third time.. advice dont fast travel, the game is much funner if you dont.

  • Skyrim is the first elder scrolls game I have played. And I must say this is my favorite game of all time. I really regret not one before.

  • @perry12105 Yup same here man , It's so full of things to do and content !

  • Hey man, I subscribed to you because you seem like a nice guy, and gaming's obviously your passion and you talk about very enthusiastically. Keep doing what you're doing.

  • talk about getting bang for your buck...

  • strategy guide for skyrim = doing it wrong (i understand for collecting reasons though)

    good on you for no spoilers though, I did my best to go that road as well

  • Hey what if somebody broke into your house and took all your valuables, you should really get secure because it really sucks when you get stolen.

  • over 200+ hours of gameplay.......and i not even finish half the quest yet....

  • This video was spot on

  • also to everyone watching this , this is just an opinion dungeons are my least favorite thing the best part about this game is doing the quests outside and stuff there definitely the most fun things ever and the level system and weapons an items and magic everything are awesome !

  • i love this game just got it for ps3 on my birthday the other day !

  • i agree with everything you said. i love hearing the hipsters say this game isnt very good just because its popular and half of them havnt even played it, a month after i got it my ps3 took a shit though and cant afford to fix it right now so ive been over a month without it so im getting withdrawals. just my luck. but without thinking to hard my favorite games of all time.excluding retro 2d games. are ocarina of time, oblivion, fallout 3, skyrim. even though i CANT FUCKING PLAY IT. thanks sony

  • It takes 2.7 years to platinum Skyrim. Better get started!

  • 03:27 I totally agreed with that, but I think there's quite the exact same problem with skyrim. The First Dungeons are PERFECT! the problem is that they still don't keep the quality of level design, and everything start to feel repetitive. I also think that the game as a serious lack of diversity. Of course they have to stick to the country where the action takes place, but I mean, in morrowind, EACH cities where pretty UNIC and all memorable, such as Vivec or Sadrith Mora. I loved Skyrim btw

  • Compared to MorroWind is it better?

  • skyrim is the best game ever

  • i hated fallout 3, i fell for the hype of Skyrim, my first Oblivion game, I LOVE IT!

    been on it 7hrs straight first day and can't wait to put many more in it, easily one of the best game I ever played and I cannot believe how well made it is.

  • @MiiDylan um, so you just said Skyrim was your first Oblivion game..... its elder scrolls. and yes its a good game but fallout was amazing so you better calm your rectum and shove your dick over there and find a pile of tities and turn into a fat prostetute.

  • @MiiDylan its an ELDER SCROLLS game, Oblivion is the subtitle of the fourth game in the series.

  • @XFinalFateX just said that you dipfuck

  • @XFinalFateX yeah i forgot.

  • game of the generations right there

  • For me that´s a freaking annoying game....opinions....

  • How can you compare an rpg to an mmorpg? No do you can do more in an mmo its online, they're not meant to be compared in the first place anyway.

  • I've been playing for ages and still havent seen 5 of the cities, its crazy.. The dungeons are huge - I think it is certainly one of the best games ever, possibly the best. I'll be really happy if future dlc expands it even more, adds more quests etc. Its vast though.

  • @MrXDreviews it's over man, no

  • @kon123123 well look at the dislike bar and look at your penis not much difference is there?

  • @xplay101 your probably more of a multiplayer person. Skyrim is incredible but it still all comes down to preference

  • Could never get into the ES games. Wish I I could. To me they're boring as hell.

  • @ohgod247 agree completely. dont get the appeal.

  • I love Skyrim. Its in my top three list of best games of all time.

  • @pipesterNCH wut were the others?

  • @singlecell55 The other two are Deus Ex and Rome: Total War. Those along with Skyrim are my top three PC games.

  • I just could get into Oblivion for the life of me, I put over 8 hours into it and just didn't have fun. The first 10 minutes of Skyrim were nothing but pure awe, after that I explored killed some things and then returned to the main quest. I REALLY love Skyrim, don't really care about Oblivion. They just seem like polar opposites, but that's just my opinion.

  • @JDGlassProductions i hope im like you as far as that goes.

  • HAVE A HIGH END LAPTOP DO YA? HAVE EVERY GAME KNOWN TO MAN DO YA? STILL LIVE WITH YOUR PARENTS DO YA? HAVE 60,000 SUBSCRIBERS DO YA? WONT CUT YOUR HAIR HUH? GEEKED FROM BERTH WERE YA? HAVE A HOT GIRLFRIEND DO Y oh..

  • @xplay101 you would trade all that for a girlfriend? what ever, it's your life. well really it isn't your life because it seems like the rest of society is telling you how to live.

  • @xplay101 Man.. if your so happy, why do you come here to hate? Go f*ck your girlfriend

  • @TheLLawliet25 who said i was happy? go fuck my girlfiend? well alright then. why didnt i think of that

  • Comment removed

  • @kon123123

    Are you watching all of his videos and leaving shitty comments from a laptop outside?

  • @kon123123 the fact that you're looking up skyrim impressions doesnt say you're much better. Get the fuck off

  • @kon123123 Loz,your looking up alot of his videos and leaving shitty comments

    He is doing good videos, and your just trolling

    660 likes vs 46 dislikes, hmm, you loose...

  • so, what is your to five?

  • One thing you forgot to mention is that, even with all the different paths/skills you can play the game by, they are all useful, and havn't just been added in for the purpose of more content like many other developers have done. <3 skyrim

  • I cut a tree and then some crazy green men tried to kill me :(

  • good vid mate i also cant stop playing skyrim its to good to put down

  • oh you have a PC that could run it on max settings do ya? on top that, of you have everything else under the sun. your awesome pete.

  • played arena, daggerfall, morrowind and oblivion but skyrim is the shit its simply awesome. :D

  • I love skyrim. But I went out hunting and took an arrow to the knee

  • People might call you a nerd. But I respect you for your individualism.

  • @Urinator2w I'm sure he knows he a nerd and I'm sure he's fine with that. Same with I'm fine with being a hippie and people judging me for my individuality. I don't care what people think.

  • How did you get a Sega Channel hoodie?? That is incredible! It's like, the coolest hoodie I've ever seen! Unbelievable!! Oh and Skyrim is pretty great too!

  • good game but i like dark souls more

  • @NarutoRocks2011 But you're username pretty much shows that you have no taste.

  • @Valkodu everyone has there own taste DUMBASS!

  • @youdevil6 Naruto is one of the few exceptions.

  • @Rpgguy1987 I was responding to a person who said it sucked. Skyrim is one of my favorite games.

  • I was watching this video and enjoying the review until I took an arrow to the knee

  • Fallout 3>Skyrim>Oblivion>Fallout NV

    Thats how i see it atm. Mainly because I havent gotten a chance to play skyrim that much yet, and I've put 300+ hours into Fallout 3 :D

  • ive never played the elder scrolls but im gonna buy skyrim for sure

  • @PSgameFilms u wont like it

  • @thervcaguy

    how the hell do you know????

  • @amomi07 youmadbro?

  • @thervcaguy youmadbro?

  • @TheNekminnit youmadbro?

  • @thervcaguy why

  • About 50 hours in now. Probably only 10% done. 0.0

  • Dude..that book is hard to get. I just went on ebay and the price is through the roof..you're so lucky.

  • You don't want to get this guy any where near world of Warcraft

  • I thin k peteused to do room tours, but then he took an arrow to the knee

  • i want this game sooooo bad

  • man ive been a subscriber since like 2 i think years ago nice vid man

  • played skyrim for a hair over a week without a strategy guide but when it came in the game became less frustrating and overwhelming. seriously i think the guide shoulda been bundled with the game

  • First elder scroll game.. It's.. Well amazing in a lot if not every aspect it's a great game one of my favorite games ever .. Like I'm into shooters I ain't that big on rgps other the dao and da2 or fallout 3 but I would like some recommendations for good rpgs:) please and thank you!

  • I need a strategy guide for that strategy guide i can imagine how hard it would be to find exactly what your looking for

  • Have you had the chance to play The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword Petedorr? I myself have finished it and would just like your tooughts on it :) good impressionvideo.

  • Hey Pete, where'd you go? Did you take an arrow to the knee?

  • About 30 hrs in now, and I have to say: You need LOTS of time for this game. You can't just play for an hour, I mean you need at least 5-6 hours per day :P

  • but dont get me wrong... graphics are amazing the caracters look real as they can and can't be compared to others but thats not what makes me pissed:<<<

  • man i can sit here all night telling you flaws in this game more then any other RPG, and i mean any! for starters how can you even be so blind not to see how massivly mass effect and dragon age own this game in almost ever aspect given the time and year they were produced!??? in both those games you have COMPANIONS THAT ACTUALLY MATTERS, and they talk to you and tell jokes and fight with each other,,, hallo man please stop this SKYRIM OP crap its nice open world graphics and thats all there is

  • @simonpd36 Your companions in Dragon Age tell jokes, and therefor Skyrim sucks. Nice.

  • Comment removed

  • skyrim as you said is a very amazing game, im a mage fighter, kinda, im also good at sneaking,

  • you're cute :)

  • skyrim is orgasmic

  • how bad would it suck if he had to move

  • MAGE,THEIF,WARRIOR?=me getting these games wud u compar to games like dao or da2?

  • This is my first Elder Scrolls game, but I do have nearly 500 hours invested in Fallout 3 and New Vegas. So far, this game is easily in my top 3 favorite games of all time. I'm almost 40 hours in as a Nord and I have also just finished speaking with the Greybeards. All I can say is: Skyrim is insanely amazing! :D.

  • Hey Pete, ever stumble upon the Alice in Wonderland easter egg? I don't know if you what to call it a easter egg since it's a mission.

  • I just finished the main quest at 70 hours... Freakin awesome game! So much fun

  • Friend: Hey have you heard of the new Elder Scrolls game?

    Me: whats a elder scroll, never heard of it o.o;; * 3 weeks later *

    OOH MY GOD ITS FREAKING AWESOME!!!!

  • @profitsim You forgot fail. Go back to 4chan you furry.

  • Holy crap I got sucked into Skyrim. 148 hours and I've barely touched the main storyline. I have never spent so much time on one video game. Especially in just 3 weeks.

  • @profitsim wtf man ? NO !!!

  • @profitsim why did you ask?

  • I'm so glad to see that someone else appreciates how massive the game is! I managed to rack up about 120 hours in all since the weekend it came out. I play with one character, an Imperial BattleMage whom I can also switch to stealth if needed. I only did the main civil war quests and didn't even begin with the main quest involving the dragons. So so glad you're enjoying it and hope you continue to enjoy it Pete!

  • Fallout 3 was better in my opinion. I just prefer the whole postapocalyptic wasteland scenario, it felt so refreshing when it first came out. Also, Skyrim's combat kinda sucks which especially shows when you played Dark Souls before.

  • @SkyF0X9 DARK SOULS........ nough said!

  • I have thought of a strategy for this game from watching this video: go into every area/dungeon at level 1 (or some low level) to lock all the monsters to a low level so they're easy to beat.

  • @xINVISIGOTHx That's a good strategy for making the game less fun...

  • it's funny, you brought up so many topics to this game but you didn't mention the dragons. It goes to show how much there is to Skyrim.

  • I suggest dark brotherhood!!! So damn fun!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @KikuchiRinko Virgin ? xD haha, you're an ass.

  • @NintendoMan26 Funny thing is I like Nintendo games but if you thing this game is stupid and retarded WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU ON A VIDEO ABOUT IT DUMBASS... WHEN DID LIKING A CERTAIN GENDER COME INTO THIS PICK UP A GRAMMAR BOOK

  • @defendedmeteor3 Think

  • @NintendoMan26 HEY GUYS LETS ALL LISTEN TO THIS DUMBASS

  • JESUS I CAN SEE THE LIGHT... cool video bro

  • would you recommend playing oblivion first, if so which one should I get: the GOTY edition or the 5th anniversary version? do they both include the dlc?

  • the virginity is strong with this one

  • @ChixenVixen the gayness is strong in this one

  • hi, im a big fish

  • Skyrim kicks ass.

    So far I've been in it for 130+ hours. At first I was thrown off by the controls, but now I'm level 38 and crushing everything under my Dragonplate boots.

    When I got a bit bored, I started a quest that dragged me underground to Blackreach, and nearly shat myself. I suggest you see it for yourself rather than look up a video, much more epic, but I digress.

    Skyrim is a massive improvement upon Oblivion, in more ways than I can describe in a comment.

  • I didn't really get into Morrowind or Oblivion but I've tried Skyrim and now yes, you've convinced me to get Skyrim.

  • consoles have totaly netuerd TES daggerfall and morrowinf was hardcore i can beat oblivion by facerolling my keyboard skyrim was 1 step forward but 3 steps back with the every skill is a primary bullshit all the handholding and fast travel 3rd person only werewolves its like they only care about making it for console noobs who can plan out a char i probley make 20 guys in daggerfall before i was happy with all the atvantages/disatvantages skills and shit but here you dont even pick a birthsign
