Some knock the graphics a bit, but I think they look pretty nice.

SP3.This was my first Elder Scrolls game; it was recommended to me by a coworker.============================POSITIVES============================The graphics are very well done

The graphics are good but they could be better

The graphics are simply great.

What good are these amazing graphics if I have to spend all this time looking at snow?

Elder Scrolls is interesting in that has pretty good graphics, a huge range of abilities to choose from and an extensive world to explore

From my perspective, the graphics are simply awesome

All the fine details working together would have trumped the graphics

The graphics in Skyrim look amazing,but the damn mouse movement sucks

Pros: Nice graphics, dragons, great music score

If you're a hardcore PC gamer (which I am not) and can get along with a nearly unusable user interface, no means of re-mapping keys, lackluster graphics, and enjoy spending hours wandering through video-acres of useless terrain, then this game is for you

Skyrim provides fully immersive game play with good graphics

Don't believe the people who bash the graphics

The graphics aren't as good as I thought they'd be.

That said people saying the graphics are only a minor improvement over Oblivion are having their opinions clouded by sub-par hardware not allowing them to utilize the visuals

This is, in my opinion, perhaps the best Elder Scrolls game to date!In summary:--Improved graphics (including *much* more realistic faces)--Improved combat and magic systems

deep world with great graphics, but the game play

The graphics are mediocre

The graphics are a huge improvement (as you would expect) over Oblivion, and I find myself guilty of being a tourist sometimes, visiting waterfalls, hiking mountains, etcFighting seemed a little awkward at first but that's just because I've been playing Oblivion for the past week straight just to get me hyped up and assumed the fighting would be the same, now that I'm 6hrs in I am mostly used to

The graphics were so choppy and so slow that it was like watching a bad slideshow

They still have the same stiff characters and sticky graphics

I loved the graphics and experienced few problems

Everything is maxed and the graphics are very nice for Direct X 9 title

This Is a very good game it has a good storyline,good graphics, and a whole bunch of other good stuff about it

Simply put, the questing, the loot system, the extras in the game (enchanting, alchemy, smithing, etc.), the leveling system, the skills system, the monitors, the intuitive AI, the graphics, and the overall gameplay make for an EXTREMELY satisfying experience that I have not experienced in a couple of years.

Like I said earlier, the graphics are pretty terrible

Really enjoy the graphics and the interaction between characters

A great game and graphics are sweet

The graphics are very cool, even to his mom.

Nice graphics

I'd recommend this game for anyone who enjoys the RPG genre and beautiful graphics

The graphics are really beautiful.

The gameplay is great, the graphics are very good, and the content and world are completely immersive.

Having only played the Diablo franchise, we were awestruck by the amazing attention to detail, the unbelievable graphics, and the diverse and flexible quests

If you have the computing power to run them, the mods can take great graphics and make them awe-inspiring

To a degree the graphics can be improved through modding but nevertheless overall, it is visually unimpressive which fails to hide some of the games many flaws

Tons of action and superb graphics.

I realized under the fancy graphics and cool battle sequences there was nothing underneath

The graphics are really good even for a pc version.

The graphics are still spectacular by today's standards

The soundtrack is one of the best in gaming, and graphics are certainly pretty good for consoles 2011, though us PC gamers would like more PC optimization next time around

I'd ALSO like to add that the graphics and performance would be a lot nicer if patrons who prefer Gamer uber-computers had had the least consideration

Great graphics and storyline.

This game has excellent graphics and is a very challenging game.

As a hardcore gamer, I can tell you that the graphics are absolutely gorgeous

The new system is much better, and the graphics are just incredible

The graphics are absolutly amazing and the number of quests and size of the "country" and number of things to do in it are truly amazing.

The graphics are great, but were obviously hobbled by the limitations of consoles

I think the graphics are pretty good all things considered.

Its refreshing to play a well thought out RPG with a huge world and great graphics and unlike Square Enix (FF) games I can play the type of character I like to play -- a straight male who isn't at all feminine.

It has nice game features and graphics

There are hundreds of mods to choose from, which can be overwhelming at first, but the ability to search for the top rated and look at comments really helps to decide.+Gorgeous graphics (that can be further enhanced with mods).

I love the graphics, classes, perks, and audio, but this game is lacking something I cannot put a finger on and that is why this isn't my favorite game or the perfect game

If you like RPG's, dungeon crawlers, mythology, Nordic and medieval themes, monster bashing, skullduggery, multiplicity, excellent graphics and much more

In my opinion the graphics are not all that bad, I am running the game maxed out on Ultra and its pretty

It's basically the same thing with a whole lot of improvements - New story, hand crafted environment, better leveling system, and incredible graphics and gameplay.

Great graphics , but you may have to run your coumpter's sound in stereo , not 5.1 or 7.1

Beautiful graphics and interesting storylines.

I certainly love the graphics.

But despite all it's many flaws, when I was actually able to play the game I did enjoy the graphics immensely

The only thing that bothered me was how bad the graphics were

The graphics in Skyrim look amazing,but the damn mouse movement sucks

The cleaned up gameplay and brilliant special effects and graphics really put this franchise at a new level.

The graphics are great, not cutting edge (can you console companies please upgrade so developers can make games geared towards equipment that's younger than six years old please?!

The graphics are pretty good, but not spectacular, but for the world you're in, it's impressive already how much detail they've gotten into the game

The graphics are pretty good, but not spectacular, but for the world you're in, it's impressive already how much detail they've gotten into the game

My hope was that the graphics on the PC would be stunning and immersive.

The graphics are great, but not nearly as detailed on plants and clothing as could have been, but this game is only 6

Skyrim is the most beautiful game I've ever played, but the graphics aren't the best though

Yes it is engaging, it has superb graphics, emerging

Very big (can keep you busy for a long time) and good graphics.

It is a deep, immersive RPG experience with phenomenal graphics and vastly improved combat and leveling systems compared to its predecessors Morrowind and Oblivion

The graphics are improved from "Oblivion", but not what they COULD be

Skyrim has amazing graphics, and trumps every other game I have seen

In addition, the general graphics are great.

Slow load screens, mediocre graphics, etc.

The graphics in skyrim are improved and the subquests are okay but who wants to run around talking to NPCs when you can be playing Dark Souls?Winner

There is the rare pink or faded red, but for a game that boasts really great graphics (like mountains that come into view) who cares if there's no color

We downloaded Steam and after about 3 hours tried to play the game and all we got was choppy graphics, conversations that didn't match the characters motions and constant crashing.

I recommend this game for anyone who likes huge worlds, awesome graphics, and fun plots.

The graphics are pretty good, but I wish Bethesda had used DirectX 11 instead of DirectX 9.

The graphics on this have just blown me away.

Everything I liked about Oblivion plus they improved the things I didn't plus the graphics are just sick

The Game has great graphics, the best that I have seen in a while.

I feel like too much time and energy was put into what the game looked like and the graphics of it, which were actually not too much better than the graphics in oblivion

The graphics in this game are amazing

Admittedly, my PC can handle better graphics and sound than they provide, but I'm a child of the 8-bit Nintendo era, and good graphics do not define a good game

The graphics are great, the storyline is fun and there's enough main and side quests to keep you occupied for ages

The amazing graphics bring the gaming world to life as you are absorbed into the world of Skyrim.

The dragons, the insanely fine crafted quests, the graphics (that are awesome even in medium), the audio (so awesome), the story (actually reading books in game) is\are really good.

The landscape is just breathtaking and the graphics are much better than Oblivion's, which I will now talk about

Amazing graphics and game systems

Details are what make a game and this one seems to have tried a smoke a mirror trick by attempting to use fancy graphics

They made some changes here and there and enhanced graphics and play style and the leveling system, but they kept the feel of Elder Scrolls; they just made it better

Great graphics and storyline

The color theme of this game is heavily gray/brown/dark-poop colored hues, I do not understand the acclaims this game has gotten in regards to its spectacular graphics

The graphics are very good--they may not be the best I've seen, but taking a step back and looking at a gorgeous landscape on high quality, I find it hard to believe you wouldn't at least be somewhat impressed.

Anyways, other than the constant crashing and rebooting of my PC, this is a fun game with great graphics.

But the bigger problems with the game isn't just the average graphics, or the terrible UI but rather the shallowness of the game world - there is just simply nothing interesting to do, in the sense that nothing you do matters

Incredible replayability, incredible graphics (especially modded), incredible story

I have been trying to play this game on a very capable dual processor 3 GHz WIN 7 PC with fast graphics

Liked Diablo much better, but the graphic were really great

Amazing graphics and story line that can entertain you for days on end.

2.8GHz8G RAM470 GTXAll I can say is WOW this game is beautiful

The game is as beautiful as it is deep and endless

Graphics are outstanding, controlls work as they should

he will also have at least a couple of spells, and a good collection of potions (I've used hundreds of Heal potions, they're the only way to survive some battles (you freeze action in the middle of a battle to embibe) as well as to replenish magicka).Save Game

Even running through them as fast as I could still took about an hour to complete

People say that faction quests are not as good as in Oblivion but it about evens out, imo

I have mined ore, smithed armor, and even chopped wood for a living, as well as destroying everyone in a city in this game

Look at Star Wars the force unleashed, that game made you feel like a bad a

This may disappoint some long-time RPG players who love directly tweaking their stats, but I found I enjoyed this differences in gameplay just the same as if I'd taken the time to raise this or that stat in another title.

I can't say enough good things about this game and if you don't already own it, scroll back up and get it on your computer as fast as you can

That is just my take on the game, it's really a believable world, and of course everything is always as good as you make it.

The quests are challenging, and require more than mere button-mashing (be prepared to do some thinking, as well as to make some important, game-changing decisions).Having put in a long night of playing my first character, I was very satisfied with Skyrim, and anticipated many, MANY hours of play

Con: Graphics aren't as wonderful as in previous games, which shocked me

One of the best things is you can play it as little or as much as you would like and have a great time.

Plus, it sucks a$$ to have to load the game back up, load the saved game, and redo everything you just did.

That particular dragon I couldn't kill as he never got close enough to me

I wish you could swing your weapons left and right as fast as you can click, and have them all coming in from different angles

There is a thick, leather-bound art book, a DVD on the making of the game that fascinated me (such as how they programmed a dragon's movements, how they came up with a written and spoken language for dragons, and much more), and of course the game

amazing!I still find myself hitting 'c' every now and then expecting a fireball, it seems to be the one Oblivion key I can't seem to shake
