One of the best games I've ever played, but I've encountered a couple glitches in a few of the missions where I had to google how to then use a different glitch in order to complete the mission. Can be frustrating at times especially if it's a critical mission. Annoying when all I have to do is pick up an item to complete a side mission, but yet it somehow falls under a bench and now I can't pick it up. ive tried using magic and shouts to move the object to an opening to pick it up but nothing has worked. I had to simply move on from the mission and maybe go back later and try to see if I can complete it at a different time, but that's an example of how annoying it can be at times.
All-in-all its a great game with a massive story that you can take in countless directions. However, it takes up a lot of your time so you better come up with a good excuse/story for your girlfriend...if you have one. Lots of fun.

Im not a hardcore 24/7 pro gamer but I do enjoy playing video games and this is one of my favorites, there’s so much you can do in it that will actually take you months to “finish” it. This game is endless

THis is clearly a timeless classic. This edition makes even on par with the computer version, if not better. I get to play on my xbox, install mods, and use a controller that I like.
I do not have a gaming computer, it has an external graphics card but not one for gaming, so to be able to load mods are fantastic.
Puts a fresh twist on a classic.
I have not run into too many glitches, if any.

At this point there isn't much to say, it's a great game that has done really well over the years. It continues to expand onto the Switch and on PSVR...which might be worth checking out over this game.

Although this game came out a few years ago, it is still one of the best games I've ever played. The graphics, story and seemingly unending number of quests to complete make it an exceptional game.

If you are a Skyrim fan and have moved to the Xbox One or PS4 this is a fantastic chance to dive back in and play the game with all dlc (and now mods!) the way it was meant to be played.

I’m an Xbox One X user with xbox live and if you love open world games where you can start wherever, do whatever, be whoever then this game is for you. SOOOO much to explore and with a 4K HDR tv and Xbox One X to enhance the experience with the new Skyrim 4K update you just get so immersified into the world. Such a beautiful and detailed world to explore and so many quests to keep you couch locked for hours on end.

I literally jumped out of my seat when it was announced that Skyrim was being remastered for the Xbox One. It was the only reason I still held onto my Xbox 360. When the game came out, I couldn't wait to play it! Everything I loved about the Xbox 360 version was now playable on the Xbox One, and with enhanced graphics. It also comes with all of the DLC packs, as well as the support for mods. If you loved Skyrim then, you'll love it now!

I get that this is a remaster and a lot of people would rate it lower just based on that. However, I haven't played it before so it is pretty much a new game to me. I am loving it so far and do not regret the purchase. The remastered graphics are prettty good too. I know people have talked about glitches in this game but too be honest I haven't seen any. If you love open world RPG's like the witcher, then you will love this one.

Xbox One Skyrim Special Edition Reveiw

Skyrim has been one of my all time favorite video games since I first experienced it on my Xbox 360. After reading reviews and doing research, I thought it would better to leave skyrim behind and look toward new games being developed and released seeing as how most people say nothing has changed, however I totally disagree. I recently purchased skyrim only bc it was cheap and I was looking for something to do. In my short time replaying the game I have a profound appreciation of the new version of skyrim. Though nothing has seriously changed except the ability to mod across all the gaming platforms, skyrims load time has more than quadrupled and even though the graphics are sort of the same they are noticeably less pixalated, and round objects ARE ACTUALLY ROUND, and not decagon shaped. It once took over an hour to complete the intro to the game and receive your first mission from the dragonskeep yarl, but I completed the intro and several side quests in under an hour of starting the game. Absolutely worth the purchase and the experience. Lagging does not even exist anymore.

Absolutely loved playing this game when it originally came out for the Xbox 360. Couldnt really justify buying a game that I already had but when I saw it come on the deal of the day I couldn't pass it up. The new graphics are great, but the best thing about the game is the load times when entering a new area. They are a fraction of what they used to be. Much less time is wasted waiting on the game to load!

I was a big fan of Skyrim back on the previous gen consoles and was excited to see it brought back with updated graphics and previous DLC. The game really does look better now, and is still just as addictive as before. The best part is now you can get some of the mods that were previously available only for PC. If you already played this game before and enjoyed it, this updated version is worth getting.

Pretty late getting this game but oh well. For a game that was made quite a few years ago it holds up really well by today’s standards and is a ton of fun.

I played this game before on Xbox 360 and fell in love with it. So when it came to Xbox one with all the dlc and on sale, it was a no brainer.

This game was and still is such an amazing game. And since they added all of the add ons to it, it makes the game even better for the price.
