Gamasutra: After spending a couple of hours with the game, there's no other way for me to say it: Skyrim is one of the worst PC ports I have ever had the displeasure of playing. Though many issues will likely be fixed and improved as time goes on, and undoubtedly mods by more enterprising gamers will help additional problems, the release state of Skyrim is, frankly, inexcusable. "Appalling" is not a word I use too lightly to describe a game, but it's the only one that fits here.
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.

Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.

3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

this article makes valid points.
honestly it's bethesda... what did you expect?
Glad to know it's not my PC causing the game to run at 20 FPS. For shame, Bethesda.
i have already the patches and mods 2 fix the problems so its not an issue for me
Wow I havn't experienced issues like this guy has, I don't even use the favourites menu I just assign equipment to my numbers on keyboard (like a shooter). I have had no framerate drops even with 1x 560ti on ultra. Also buying selling has never been an issue. The only thing I can think of is that the patch improved all of that.
