One of the best offline role-playing games of all time (if not the best, definitely the best currently on the market). The graphics, the endless possibilities and the Nordic flair, fits here very much. I have a lot of role-playing games played, starting with Baldur's Gate 2, Gothic on Morrorwind, The Witcher bishin to Dragon Age. This one horse in my all time favorite list: Baldur's Gate 2, Gothic 2, Dragon Age and now Skyrim. Morrorwind was great but too sterile, Dragon Age was awesome but built to hose Level default, here you have all the freedoms. The main quest storyline is played unfortunately predictable and fast, but the side quest and many guilds (Dark Brotherhood, Thieves Guild, etc.) provide plenty of gaming fun. To make a long story short, Skyrim is a must buy and offers for mom. 29 euros, a price / performance ratio which is unrivaled.
