Even Human Revolution was better than Skyrim, there I said it.

 

[Boss Doggie]

To be fair, some of the dungeons, infiltrating elf party and a couple other instances of the main quest were a pleasant break. In oblivion, the fucking holes were just silly in the end.

Though Skyrim main quest had one of the worst final boss fights or rpgs or anything really.
Barely upgraded Dragon, not even much more imposing+ the 3 immortal fuckers assisting you.

Then I go to Dragon's Dogma and the Grigori fight and it's like all I ever wanted.
Not even mentioning the Souls series dragons

You're only forced to enter the Oblivion thrice. The rest are just optional. At the very least they actually made the final battle engaging. The elf embassy was a poorly done version of invading the Mythic Dawn.

But yet in your previous post you used it as damning evidence against the previous games, Oblivions Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood quest lines are some of the finest quest lines this gen bar none add Shivering Isles on top of that and it just gets even more embarrassing for Skyrim, hell even the middling Fighters and Mages Guild quests are better. To your last point no, I pretty much disliked Skyrim from the start, I like a lot people got hyped and became disappointed.

And the cities too. Only 5 cities in Skyrim stood out, 2 of which are lame (Riften and Windhelm). Also, for a game that touts on choices, you sure couldn't do shit on Black-Briar and Silverblood.

And yeah I can't believe someone would say the guild quests on Skyrim are the best. They're pretty lame because it doesn't feel like a guild at all. Thieves Guild also feels more like a tame version of DB than being different.

6. XCOM: Enemy Unknown
16. Bioshock Infinite

Wat.

Both are good games, but they're both very flawed as well.

Those are just the ones I myself can speak for.

The omission of Ultima Underworld is far worse than any of those games you've mentioned.

Edit: I know these lists are inherently subjective, but that is possibly the worst gaming related "top 100" I've ever seen.

 

[szaromir]

The top 10 is a joke. None of the games belong there except Deus Ex.

 

[DukeBobby]

Good to see Hitman: Blood Money at 17. I would actually have it higher.

However, no Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory is a complete joke.

 

[DashReindeer]

I've never been much of a PC gamer, but that list looks like a complete and utter joke to me. Why are so many games from the last five years in the top 10? Is PC gaming going through its golden age right now? This list is just utterly laughable.

 

[Hellcrow]

Jokes on them. I didn't click their link.

 

[Marvel]

Amateurs.

 

[Fasty]

I think I put about 200-odd hours into Skyrim when it came out. Then I went on to play other games- or rather, one in particular: Dragon's Dogma. For over 400hrs. Went back to Skyrim recently and got into a combat situation and proceeded to actually laugh at how inept it was and quit in disgust.

Number 1 hey? Wow.

The combat in games #2, #3 and #7 is also laughably bad.
