Why is skyrim so fun

Morrowind was great and one of my all time favorite games, while Oblivion was already starting to be more "consolized" and simplified but it was still enjoyable if you let it grow on you. Skyrim was always boring for me. The only playthrough I actually had fun playing was when I modded it a lot and removed all the Dragonborn and dragons stuff and added mods to allow me to have a nice house after spending a lot of money to buy the land and house and fix it up, then I also added some mods that allow me to grab many static objects from all over the world you select the object and you can make it disappear from where it is and you get it added to your inventory, after that you can use that object from your inventory and place it wherever you want so I was going into Dwemer ruins and get Dwemer objects like chairs and tables and all of that, and then place it in my house.

Basically I only had fun playing Skyrim when I removed the main thing about Skyrim and played it as a "explore linear dungeons" to get objects for my house. So I only had fun playing Skyrim when i removed most of what makes Skyrim Skyrim and played it as a big theme park to collect objects to decorate my house I think I managed to play that game for 20 or 30 hours before I got bored again.

And seeing how Skyrim and Fallout 4 share many traits, I'd say they just want to make Skyrim with guns and Fallout 4 with swords just for the sake of merging the communities' fans.

Well i guess its enjoy to see the main holds and their is houses to get and stuff to buy. It also allows you do anything like mine or craft witch is pretty cool. The landscape looks great for back then not so much now. There are some okay quests too but many are very linear as pointed out. There is also many dungeon crawl and kill that dragons! So yeah can get very very boring. At least it doesn't appeal to me. I really want to like this game, but I can't seem to. Showing 1 - 15 of 45 comments.

Many people enjoy playing the same type of character every time, like an archer who sneaks around and one-shots every enemy.
