I began playing Skyrim at a higher level about one month ago. I’m finding every aspect of the game to be rich in all aspects of gameplay but the story is deep and engaging. I was fortunate to find this video by FudgeMuppet on YouTube.

When you consider that the first game in the The Elder Scrolls series began in 1994, there’s a vast history and extensive lore. It’s really the dream in gaming, to have a game that goes on and on; yet carries the tradition of the original work.

So, here’s FudgeMuppet’s thirty-years of history in 15 minutes. It comes at you fast and the graphics of the early versions will appear weak compared to the graphics of the state of the art graphics; so, parts are a bit like watching an old movie. I found all of it enlightening and delightful.

One last thought: If you haven’t played Skyrim before, don’t be overwhelmed because you can always begin as I did, on Novice level (aka Very Easy). The game is so vast you’ll have endless hours of enjoyment as the story reveals itself to you.

Note to newbies: Do not become addicted. Gaming Addiction is real.
