Why is Skyrim better than Fallout?
As Bethesda’s flagship game franchise, the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series have garnered a massive following worldwide. Both series have their own unique strengths, weaknesses, and fan loyalties. However, considering various aspects, some avid gamers argue that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim fares better than Fallout 4 in several key respects.
Freedom and Scope of Gameplay
Skyrim stands out for its extraordinary gameworld, offering countless playable hours and an unparalleled sense of exploration freedom. The game is sprawling in scale, granting you control over a stunning vista of mountains, rivers, and forests. Explore numerous caves, ruins, castles, and shrines to uncover hidden artifacts and complete quests. Even months after release, devoted enthusiasts can still discover unseen crevices and caverns filled with secrets, artifacts, and surprises. While Fallout 4 shares elements of exploration, the confined nuclear wasteland scope hampers the sensation, in comparison.
