  The Brilliance and Faults of Skyrim

Even though the game is now over ten years old, it is still played consistently to this day and this is because of the replayability the game contains. RPGs are designed to be massive experiences that people...

They were as regular as a yearly Madden release or you when eating a diet high in fiber.
