I love the first comment on that review.

I am SO over this fanaticism about multiplayer. It adds nothing to the game.

They seriously knocked a whole point off just because there isn't co-op? That's incredibly asinine. :facepalm:

That's like being pissed at an orange cause it isn't an apple. TES is a single-player experience. They'd as well dock it points because it doesn't have laser guns.

No Co-op – I always get [censored] for this but I’m a huge fan of coop experiences. This game screams for it.

He just very briefly runs through the tutorial. Nothing big. It's a [censored] review though. I just thought it was ridiculous that he put co-op as one of the cons.

Edit to the person below: No, I don't expect Skyrim to get a 10/10 but there has to be valid reasons for docking points.

Why do you think ANY game should get a 10/10 anyways....if you know of a perfect game that exists, or is exempt of bugs and glitches and is perfect in every way, please direct me to it.

That score is a very good score. That review is a very [censored] review, talks about the beginning (spoiler).....and yeah....thats it. Oh and its HUGE. wow, really? lol

Thanks.

OT: If they really took away points for no multiplayer, that's ridiculous. How can you complain about something the game was never intended to have and wasn't even designed for? That's like complaining because it didn't have guns.

the Con of no Co-op is a actually a pro... so I guess it must be a 10 out of 10 :)

Co-Op.... This would esentially make the game into a two player MMO. Right? You and your roomate would just run around for hours on end with a split screen? I guess so.... Co-Op linked or Online could work maybe? That could work. But it's a TES game. It's not supposed to be multiplayer.

You know Daphne? Some day I just want to send you a message saying lots of spoilers. Because your hatred for spoilers annoys me.

No, just briefly through the tutorial. Nothing major, since it's obvious you're not going be killed at the start.

CO-OP would be a great feature like Borderlands, but to mark it down for not having it when TES is all about single player is wrong.

Well said. What's with the obsession of co-op? Sheesh. We didnt need it in Morrowind or Oblivion, we sure as hell don't need it here. Co-op didnt sell millions of copies of these games. People are so freakin' greedy -.-

Two things which are unfortunately long overdue in TES, the addition of a Co-Op and a Zombie Mode.

i would love to run through the world of TES with a buddy, but docking points for it not being co-op is a bit ridiculous.

Co-Op and Multiplayer cooperation and working as a team can be great in certain types of games. I enjoy the [censored] out of it. But not TES. It's a single player RPG. Always has been,

.... yeah when I get to left field, I'll try to catch that one.

I have no problem with spoilers. I have a problem with people that either a.) shove them down your throat. i.e post them in topic titles, create bait threads etc and b.) People that don't at least have the courtesy to warn you so you can make up your own mind.

But I digress, a simple toss on ignore and I won't have to worry about seeing that PM :cookie:

Lol, so basically, you think it wouldve got a 10, if it DID have co-op? No game is a 10, not even this game. Lets be realistic, 9 is as close as any game should get

Spoilers aren't that bad really, I just wanted to make them big and pretty font for people to pay attention before they click. Some people hate even minor spoilers :tongue:
