To mark the new year, PSLS takes a look back at the mythology of dragons throughout history, and their role on storytelling in games. - PSLS
ScreenRant's Stephen Tang writes, "The Elder Scrolls 6 won't be releasing for a while, and in the meantime, the modding community has been making Skyrim into a next-gen game."
That’s just laughable to me. I think they’ve squeezed all they can out of an 12 year old game
"Easily" because they see mods, says the gamer. To heck with licensing, terms agreements conditions, etc. all you need to do is belive in mods. Yeah, so real superficial BS yo.
Do people not want to play a new game? Like, I’d rather see 6 than just a prettier version of a game we’ve been playing since the 360/PS3 gen…
I don't want a next-gen version of a game I've already played to death. Skyrim was a great game, but I'm over it.
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.
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.
Interesting read!
Skyrim has rekindled my love of dragons :D
The history channel actually had a pretty good documentary on dragons a while back (yeah, CRAZY, I know). There was some interesting stuff there, not the least of which were some accounts of Roman armies encountering dragons on the field of battle (which, as you can guess, was totally the ONLY reason the Romans lost).
Personally, I'm not sure I fully buy into the idea of dragons being ancient interpretations of dinosaurs. It's makes a lot of sense, I know, but I think the "cross-polinization" theory/mystery plays a certain role, too--after all, dragons are not the only creature to exist (in the same role) in nearly every culture on the planet. Like the fact that foxes or similar creatures represent mischievous tricksters everywhere on the planet. ~Everywhere~. And there's no real explanation for why. And that's just one example, mind you. Dragons may be unique in that there's a single, clearly plausible explanation for their existence in human cultures around the planet, but there are many similar cases with no such justification.
But hey, here I am going off on a tangent when all I really want to say was, "I came to N4G, I clicked on an article with a promising premise, and I was not disappointed. I am pleased."
That NEVER happens.
Great, now I have to pull my VCS out again and play with some duck dragons in Adventure. Really interesting read, well done!
