1up: Skyrim! We love it. You love it. Even Japan loves it, and those guys hate games from America! With sales topping seven million already and no corner of the Internet free of Skyrim discussion (not to mention hilarious videos showing off wanton abuse of Dragon Shouts or whatever), I think it's safe to say that Skyrim has awakened the world to the fact that a well-made single-player RPG is a lot of fun.
Interview with Stephen Russell, Actor for (Nick Valentine, Codsworth, My Handy) in Fallout 4 which is a vast open world role playing game set in the apocalyptic wastes of Boston, the Commonwealth. The career goes further with other Bethesda games from Starfield to Prey to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.
It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did
They included physical disc back then
I would love the classic fallout games on console. Closest I could find was atom rpg, I liked that one a lot
Fallout: New Vegas? That's my personal recommendation. Hell, it may be buggy, but it's still easily my number 1 game of all time.
Avadon was great. Got me back to playing Geneforge. A great series.
Borderlands? If you liked Skyrim, play Borderlands? That's a bit of a stretch, I must say.
Planetscape: Torment made the list! One of my favorites. Chris Avellone <3

Rofl 1up on its best behavior i see ... how about just phrasing it as people fancying other things over there ? Just like plenty westerners dont care about plenty japanese games
10 years later and im still pissed that the Gothic series doesnt get the appreciation it deserves.
Should give the underrated Divinity series ago, definitely recommend Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga (Remastered version of Ego Draconis with the expansion).
How about the previous elder scroll games? lol kinda seemed like an obvious miss to me?
