I honestly don't even think vanilla Skyrim was that good of a game. It had nice world building, but the combat sucked, the main story was kinda whatever, it was glitchy and a lot of systems were poorly thought out. It's only ever been the promise of a good game which was mostly found in mods.

Skyrim was good because sandbox, music, culture and mood. The parts that made it bad, were endearing.

Combat sucked and you had to spend way too long in the garbage ass inventory/ menus which just ruined the immersion. Im passing on Bethesda games until they fix that dumb shit, but I don't think they will anytime soon. All of their games seem like a soulless copy-paste the theme into the same boring engine.
