Gaming news of late. New releases and Dragons

Over the last few weeks, I haven't had the time to dedicate to gaming as much as I would hope, but, like many of you, I was sucked into Bethesda's amazing 5th installment of The Elder Scrolls Saga. I had the game for a while, but had returned to Borderlands before moving on to Skyrim, and I feel like I made a mistake in waiting so long.

The game's atmosphere and scope are phenomenal. The amount of activities that you can involve yourself in is astounding. The political atmosphere in the game is present no matter where you go, however, can be ignored for the most part if you are not interested in pursuing it.

The control scheme has been perfected from the former Elder Scrolls and is not easy to use with favorites allowing for the quick switch to any wanted weapon or magical ability. As per my usual strategy with these types of games, I had resorted to the mage and magical qualities as my default when first playing this, and slowly moved onto the weaponized combat.

Every path you can take can potentially be on the same journey, but with so much to do in the world, you will find yourself absorbed into the game for much longer than you ever thought possible.

More to come later.
