The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a brilliant game from the glorified RPG series The Elder Scrolls.
From www.elderscrolls.com:
The Empire of Tamriel is on the edge. The High King of Skyrim has been murdered. Alliances form as claims to the throne are made. In the midst of this conflict, a far more dangerous, ancient evil is awakened. Dragons, long lost to the passages of the Elder Scrolls, have returned to Tamriel. The future of Skyrim, even the Empire itself, hangs in the balance as they wait for the prophesized Dragonborn to come; a hero born with the power of The Voice, and the only one who can stand amongst the dragons.The game was extremely well received, and its release became a world scale event. I believe that almost no other game can come close to the level of the Bethesda's creation. It features a huge world, beautiful landscapes, epic storyline, tons of side quests, interesting characters, and, of course, dragons.
