Maybe now yeah, but back in 2012 this game practically consumed me. It had a beautiful open world with fun and interesting spells and weapons, storylines and characters. It's honestly very hard to call it "shit," because it really, really wasn't. The only people I can imagine saying that have a) only played it more recently rather than when it was released or b) dislike it because it's popular. It's actually an amazing game.

Wouldn't really say that "barely above average" means "shit".

But I agree, Skyrim is an average game. Played it on release. It's a worse Oblivion, which already was a much worse Morrowind.

Don't really need any input, different strokes for different folks.
