game review

I was asked to post a review of elderscrolls 5: Skyrim.

Its a bit difficult to cover the ENTIRE game because this game is EXPANSIVE

i dont just mean playable surface, but the depth of characters, quests, equipment, abilities, everything. is HUGE.

I reached lvl 50 my first play through, and completed all the main story quests etc, and had a GREAT experience

the controlls are fluid and intuitive

the graphics are practically artisitc and beautiful

the dragons are fearsome. and awesome. and scary.

My ONLY issue with the game, comes with a few glitches.

i think because of the sheer size of this game, a few important game play details fell through the cracks.

what i mean by this, is that some of the things you do/destroy/kill in quests directly affect your ability to complete OTHER quests (because you already killed a key character etc)

the other big issue i had, which really sucked cause i had accomplished SO MUCH in this go-through, was that an unfortunate glitch caused my character to literally disappear. so that i was running around and swinging my sword, but i couldnt actually see it, or myself.

a foolish decision caused me to delete that game and start ALL OVER (a very daunting and tedious task) so we'll see if i ever accomplish that much again...

i think i might make my guy look like gandalf from LOTR this time...

losing it all, to gain it all...

A longggg time ago, a dude named Jesus Christ walked on this earth.

When he was here, there were many people who wanted to follow him, and his example.

He had one prerequisite: to drop EVERYTHING and follow him, right then, right there.

Some people were incapable of doing this, prefering to hold onto their worldly ways, possessions, and comforts. One man wanted to bury his dead father first, and Jesus basically said dont bother, just follow me.

There were others though, who did.

The first guys he asked actually, did just that.

They were fishermen, and at his word, dropped their nets. And followed him. That meant they dropped their livelyhood, their security, money, families, everything!!

That is so crazy.

And the best part is that God still took care of them, they were never in need.

I want that kinda faith.
