The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Online

Bethesda's game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Online, the 2011 Game of the Year, is the next chapter in the highly anticipated Elder Scrolls saga. Developed by Bethesda Game Studios, the 2011 Studio of the Year, who also developed Oblivion and Fallout 3. Skyrim re imagines and revolutionises the open-world fantasy epic, bringing to life a complete virtual world open for you to explore any way you choose.


Skyrim is an explorable province in The Elder Scrolls Online. It is the homeland of the Nords and is politically split in two. The two Old Holds that are in the game, Eastmarch and The Rift, are under the control of the Ebonheart Pact and are led by High King Jorunn the Skald-King of Windhelm.

I found myself drawn to the landscapes within the different worlds. The architecture and landscapes are breathtaking and peaceful. I like the worlds that have been created because even though they are beautiful and fascinating to explore, there is always danger, even if you don't feel like you are in danger.

Here are some examples of the landscapes within the game. The architecture and the exaggerated sizes of objects that should be small makes the worlds look extremely interesting, and in a way, more immersive - you get to see real world objects, but way out of proportion, you can see more detail in the objects that you wouldn't have been able to see before.
