When they said 95% they didn't mean 95% good, they meant 95% the same as Bethesdas other games.

I will buy this game next year 2013 when its a fraction of the price and player mods have made it better.

The modding community has been very active in the game so far. Sky UI all but eliminates the horrible stock UI (you still have to use it for some menus but the Inventory has been modded and works great).

I find it interesting that the expansion packs seem to have better stories than the main game. Shivering isles had a much more interesting story than Oblivion, and Tribunal was more interesting than Morrowind.

Well no. It is the reviewers compressing the scale. AAA developer titles never get anything less than an 80% these days. It used to be a good game would get mid 80s and any developer would be happy with that. These days if your game doesn't get an 85% apparently it's considered a failure and you don't get royalties.



People can do a lot more research easily these days. There is really no good ole days of game reviews.


The fact is that ratings are about perception and the only people that would be happy with your system are... well you.


I think most people understand there is a bell curve with B being in the middle, not C.
