Its Skyrim
Literally the most re-playable game in existence you could play this game 200 times and every playthrough could be different. Mods constantly keep this game fresh and exciting. Its been alive for a long time, I dont see it dying out anytime soon.
The Pros
- Its moddable as hell.

Always come back to this.
Since skyrim has launched I have spent alot of time coming back to this game, from xbox 360 to xbox 1, this game holds a place in my heart. I recommend this game to my father in law, and its a game we always talked heavily about. Since losing him in 2020, I've revisited the tundra of skyrim a good handful of times now more as a means to remember him and smile. This game whether through glitches or gameplay can help you create humorous memories and what better reason is there to keep playing something like skyrim.
The Pros
- Massive open world
- A plethora of quests
- Replayable
- Game breaking exploits
The Cons
- Can be glitchy
