@lain @harblinger isn't elder scrolls well-regarded and was made before ridiculous games-as-art discourse poisoned everything. not like Dostoyevsky, but good? I have never played it but people talk about the writing very fondly, people that don't circle-jerk over that kind of thing.

@sun @lain @harblinger 
far as i could tell, elder scrolls games are about pressing the jump button as many times as possible while sprinting around between little towns and stealing every interactable item on the map, stopping now and then to look at an npc who's melted into putty or whose head is rotating backwards into its torso and back up through its chest

wheras the writing was like "what if i tried to do some stereotype dnd world building but was on mushrooms half the time

@ageha @lain @harblinger I dunno I have read some pretty detailed praises of it, but I never actually played it myself so I can't say.
