Play Skyrim Like Never Before with the Skyrim - Very Special Edition

At long last, Skyrim is coming to the Amazon Echo as an audio-based adventure. It's the Elder Scrolls/Dungeons & Dragons crossover you've always wanted!
P.S. This is a joke. This is only a joke.

This video was hilarious, absolutely loved it!

-Foxtrot2164d ago

They can take a joke...I'll give them that XD

aarogree2164d ago

I just tried it out on my Amazon Echo Dot. It works.
It may have been a joke, but it's a joke that is real.

ZaWarudo2164d ago

But will the Etch-A-Sketch version support mods?

aarogree2164d ago

I'm still hoping for a Speak & Spell port.

porkChop2164d ago

That was hilarious. But I will admit, as someone who used to play text adventures I was actually excited at the possibility.

aarogree2164d ago

Ditto. I'm hoping this is one of those (not) April Fool's jokes that begins life as a joke but eventually becomes real.

Bhuahahaha2164d ago (Edited 2164d ago )

ahahaha he's good.
feels like he really love skyrim

ninsigma2164d ago

Ha awesome! They should totally make that a thing! XD

aarogree2164d ago

They did. It is an actual part of Amazon Alexa.

Try it out.

ninsigma2163d ago (Edited 2163d ago )

Oooh nice. Don't have an echo though :(

xPhearR3dx2163d ago

You don't need the Echo or any Amazon device. You can just download the Alexa app, link your Amazon account and get the "Skyrim - Very Special Edition" from the Amazon store and you're good to go.

ninsigma2163d ago

Whoa awesome, did not see that coming xD
Will have to give it a shot, thanks!

Dragon Quest 11 isn't even the best Dragon Quest game, it's a good game, but not the best. Dragon Quest 8 is superior to it in almost every way.

thorstein901d ago

...and 1 and 2 and 3 and 4....

I am biased.

Sometimes I forget how much of a powerhouse the PS1 was

MadLad902d ago

I don't play too many jrpgs, and I'm trying to diversify a bit.

Outside of FF and Dragon Quest, what two games from that list do you most recommend someone trying? Doesn't matter if it's a sequel to another game or not.

Jiub902d ago

IMO: Chrono Trigger and Suikoden II

thorstein901d ago

Octopath Traveler is really good.

BlaqMagiq1901d ago

You have Threads of Fate on there which means you get my ultimate respect. Underrated and overlooked.

Exvalos901d ago

Man your dang near spot on absolute spot on choices

Epicor901d ago

I like your top 6 a lot. I don't have the same orders but all those games would make my top 10 RPG list most likely. Number 1 for me is FFIX. It holds a special place in my heart and imo it's the perfect Final Fantasy game.

In addition I would give special mention to some western RPG's as well: Skyrim and Mass Effect 2 were iconic games. Out of JRPG's I'd like to add Disgaea 2 on that list.

MadLad902d ago (Edited 902d ago )

Some of my personal favorites are Planescape: Torment, New Vegas, Morrowind, Kotor 2, Wasteland 3, Witcher 2, Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, Deus Ex, Disco Elysium and Vampyr.

As far as jrpg, while I'm not as big a fan as I am for Western RPGs, I love Persona 3 - 5, Dragon Quest 8 and 11, Rogue Galaxy, Final Fantast 6,7, and 12; and Lost Odyssey.

LoveSpuds902d ago (Edited 902d ago )

Some quality taste in games there squire.

I'd add some Baldurs Gate 2 and Neverwinter Nights from back in the day too.

MadLad901d ago

Should have added BG2. Played through it many times over the years.

Never could get into Neverwinter Nights though. Not sure why.

Omegasyde901d ago

Loved rouge galaxy. Fav game from Level 5.

ManMarmalade902d ago

Legend of Dragoon #1 game of all time for me

Who's actually buying this?

deleted923d ago

I can't get excited about flat Skyrim anymore after trying it in VR. It's the only way I'll even play it now.

justadelusion923d ago

they say there is a sucker born every min, so probably a lot of ppl

Darkborn923d ago

Your both right. I have played it on psvr and it's far superior to the regular game, even with mods. And yeah, just like with GTA, people will rebuy this game again for sure.

923d ago
andydalum922d ago

I will probably buy it. Aside from me this game has been out for 10 years so a entire new group of gamers might enjoy it as well. For me I love this game and don't find myself enjoying many rpgs like I do skyrim.

Games are about having fun and I have fun with skyrim even now

Yui_Suzumiya922d ago

I've never bought or played it before (more of a Fallout fan) but I plan on eventually getting Skyrim for the Switch.

Honestly at this point I just wished they remastered Oblivion for a change instead of this every 2 weeks.

Rachel_Alucard922d ago (Edited 922d ago )

I'd be afraid of them changing the charming aspects of the game for being too old or not in line with what Skyrim brought in. Like redoing VAs with different people, changing the way models look but also restricting everything in character creator to do that, or just rewriting quest dialogue for whatever reason. I can remember the Adoring fan, Glarthir, and the grey prince clear as day 15 years later, but in Skyrim I can only remember the guy you click a single option to buy him a drink in Whiterun and he goes, "My favorite drinking buddy" every single time you see him. Plus the other 2 obnoxious NPCs in whiterun that just exist to be obnoxious.

Yui_Suzumiya922d ago (Edited 922d ago )

I've been hollering for a Fallout 3 Remastered and it never came either, lol. I have to fire up my PS3 in order to play Fallout 3 but you can play this on damn near everything, lol

Rebel_Scum922d ago

Would be nice if the new content came to the existing editions on various consoles.
