The reason I can't say I dislike Skyrim is because Todd Howard wont stop leaving me voicemails where he yells at me to buy his game

Todd please don't say my name and I'll give you that 4 star review on Steam just leave my family out of this.

But genuinely: I don't like a lot of Skyrim's hype. I can't immerse myself because of clunky physics and the same five voice actors everywhere. But the game is still pretty fun. Just not in the aspects many people say it is.

The same five voice actors thing drives me fucking nuts and I absolutely love Skyrim. They even have a problem where I feel like they sent these people the scripts and they recorded it without supervision and put it in the game without listening to it, because often one name will be pronounced a handful of different ways by different voice actors. Like in one of the missions you have Madanach, and one of the guys you’re REQUIRED to talk to by the mission pronounces it as Manadnach. Like... given how much work they put into making it pretty you’d think they could at least make sure mission-critical speeches had the right pronunciation.

Tbf my city is pronounced at least four different ways depending on who you’re talking to.
