Sky...rim? Never heard of it. Assuming it's a space game since it's called Skyrim.

[–] Redredme@lemmy.world 40 points 8 months ago (2 children)

It's not an rpg and it's not set in space! It's a porn flic about rimming in the sky.

Really gross.

[–] RIPandTERROR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 8 months ago

Sky's rim belongs to the Nords!

[–] swab148@startrek.website 7 points 8 months ago

So you're saying that I should definitely buy it right now?

[–] ShadowFox@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Nah I think it's set in the clouds. After all, it came out the same year as skyward sword.

[–] Klear@sh.itjust.works 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Do you go to the clouds very often?

[–] KreekyBonez@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago

of course you don't!

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Clouds, space, where's the line anyway?

[–] Cralder@feddit.nu 35 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Not this shit again Todd Howard

[–] amotio@lemmy.world 25 points 8 months ago

It just works™

The only way to get to space in Skyrim is letting a giant hit you with a club. But at least it's a smooth transition from earth to space without a load screen between.

Should recommend SpaceBourne 2.

Made by a single developer, yet touted in reviews as what Starfield should have been.

[–] Basil@lemmings.world 5 points 8 months ago

Wow, this looks incredible. I absolutely love seeing indie games getting recognition and love they deserve, I genuinely haven't played a AAA in years (except rdr2)

Read the first couple reviews and they basically said the magic words: "It's like X3/X4, Elite, NMS, and MOO in one ultimate game and gets right what they all get wrong."

Fuck yes. Sign me up.

Edit: Dude this game is sick, if not a little rough around the edges. I hope the voiceovers are just placeholders.

mfw Starfield is just a high budget and for Skyrim

[–] aluminium@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

These guys are breathing their own farts 24/7, my god.

How about they fix their old ass engine for real this time and implement proper space travel instead of gaslighting people into liking their games.

You ate the onion

[–] M500@lemmy.ml 11 points 8 months ago

Skyrim is a great game. It’s a shame they can’t build off of it. Seems Starfield was a flop. I don’t even have hardware that can run it reasonable well.

[–] guriinii@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

I really enjoyed this game but the world exploration became tedious. I played 130 (didn't once see zero g in that time either). Hours before putting it down. I plan to go back to finish the quest lines.

So todd managed to sell skyrim again?

[–] activ8r@sh.itjust.works 5 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Skyrim: Prequel Edition coming soon.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 2 points 8 months ago

Is literally just an unmastered Oblivion.

[–] artic@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 8 months ago

Skyrim has zones in elder scrolls online

[–] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

As it turns out. The only reason they made starfield was to get more Skyrim sales. Their one true purpose.

[–] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Shut up Bethesda, you don't have the talking stick.

[–] Cultural_Hope@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Is there a punching only build for Starfield?
