14 DAY TRIAL // The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has been out for 10 days or so and, since then, we've published quite a lot of content regarding the complex role playing game from Bethesda.
While I'm the first to admit that I wasn't that interested in Skyrim, even if I loved both Fallout 3 and New Vegas, I'm definitely enjoying the experience largely because I've been spurred on by all the talks we've been having here at Softpedia.
We're all gamers around here but, while our tastes differ dramatically, Skyrim has really united us, proving to be one of the most talked about topics in the last week or so.
From sharing strategies on how to take down dragons to recommending various side quests that proved to be extremely interesting, we've been talking about the game from Bethesda pretty much non stop, not to mention arguing about which characters are more powerful, from warriors to mages, rangers or various combinations of the array of powers you can use.
Beyond the complex gameplay, the huge amount of possibilities in terms of combat or the large number of quests, Skyrim's, and pretty much any game's success, is in direct correlation with how it can get people to talk about it in real life conditions, like around a watercooler.
We talk about lots of games, but Skyrim has definitely got us hooked since day one and we're still sharing screenshots, videos, tips or tricks, as well as exploits or glitches we found through its open world.
From these discussions we've come to understand even more about the game and started topics that even became the subject of previous gamer diaries, like the one about Lydia or the clunky character creator.
As such, even if lots of other games have appeared in the last few weeks, from Need for Speed: The Run, to Saints Row 3: The Third or Assassin's Creed: Revelations, we're still looking forward to going back to Skyrim and uncovering new things that we can share with colleagues and other gamer friends.
What about you? Have you found yourself talking about Skyrim in the past weeks or did you have other gaming topics on your mind?
