    I discovered this game about 4 years ago. I was 67. I'd never played a video game in my life. It is now my sanctuary. And the musical score is medicine for the soul.

    I couldn't understand English when I first started playing in 2011, but I created my character anyways. Aragon the ginger (tried to write Aragorn but I didn't know how to pronounce his name too), Nord, sword and shield.
    I played on my father's laptop, and for fear of breaking the right mouse button, I adopted a stronger weapon that I thought would carry me without blocking through the game, a warhammer.. I also didn't know we have to press and hold left mouse button to fully charge an arrow to fire it properly.
    Saw in some random walkthrough a guy speaking these words: "infinite gold" and "Mount Anthor". Then I went to Mount Anthor to find the gold, found one of my firsts memorable dragon battles, I couldn't fire arrows properly, so we fought through the whole Sunday night. Sleepless, some hours to an exam, and didn't found the gold. But I had such a glow of excitement in my eyes that since that day, all my school friends knew about this amazing experience that is Skyrim.
    With the passing of the months, this game quickly became my favorite English teacher. Making me genuinely interested in the language, so I could understand the dialogs, books, and quests. Year after year, more and more I could understand this language. So many positive things happened in my life because of it, that is difficult to express in words the appreciation I feel for that. Thank you, Skyrim : )
    And for those who stopped by to hear this stranger's confession: Wind Guide You : )

      I must disagree, Secunda (which sadly wasn't played) hits more.
      When I hear it, anytime, anywhere, I almost start to cry. I still remember the moment when I first - at night - came out outside from the Dragon Hall (sorry if the name is wrong, I played different language version) in Whiterun and Secunda was playing and the green aurora was shining on the sky. THAT was the defining Skyrim moment for me. Until then, it was just one from the list of the great RPGs and sequel to Oblivion. But this moment changed it to something more.

    I used to volunteer as a Hospital Radio DJ. One day I was invited to attend a music session and play powerful and inspiring music to terminally ill cancer patients. I thought of lots of things I could play but I had to choose to play something that meant something to me. I decided to play them From Past To Present and Far Horizons. I wanted to give them something new, something they could listen to wherever they may be. They might have been stuck in a hospital bed with no way to leave. My thinking was to play them some tracks from Skyrim because it instils that large open world feeling and that is exactly what someone confined to a hospital bed would need.
    Long story short, I was asked back to play my sessions to more terminally ill cancer patients and every time I change what music I am going to play. It means a lot to me and it is always a pleasure to share Jeremy Soules music to anyone. Now it is very likely that these people have since passed on, but I am privileged to have shared with them this wonderful and life fulfilling music. For a moment, if only but a brief moment in our lives - we are confronted with something that is awe inspiring. This music helps me understand what life is about, you can't quite put words to it, but the feeling and the shivers down your spine is what makes it real.

    This is a wonderful concert and presentation of this music.

    I got unexpectedly emotional watching this. When I first played Skyrim my kids were little and used to watch me play all the time (usually only the outdoors exploration parts, I didn't venture into bone and blood strewn dungeons, but I digress). Each time I hear the music it draws me right back like it was yesterday. Many times I would play the Skyrim soundtrack in the car with them, so the music is as instantly recognizable for them as well. And now, many years later, my daughters have laptops of their own and now I am coaching them through their first playthroughs of their own.

    Skyrim may not have the best game mechanics. It may not have the biggest map, the best storytelling, the best quest design or the best graphics. But Skyrim, unlike any other video game world I've ever experienced, always felt like a real place to me, with it's very own heart and soul. I've never felt such a deep connection to a game ever again and it will always be a part of me. Listening to Far Horizons, The Streets of Whiterun or From Past to Present always makes me emotional. It feels like home to me.

      @@dartharyeshzilla7909 I think Avarti in some degree actually loves the game (correct me if I am wrong). Since approximately 3/4 of his videos are about The Elder Scrolls and 50% of it is about Skyrim. He wouldn't spent thousands of hours making videos about it, if it wouldn't be big part of his life. Often the biggest fans are the highest critics. I can feel that nowadays, the TES fans are bit frustrated about it that Bethesda hasn't been able to in 10 years publish any new main TES title other than different kind of special/anniversary editions while at the same time other game publishers have managed to publish games like Witcher lll, Dark Souls/Bloodborn etc. That being said. Everyone acknowledges what kind of impact Skyrim have had to the whole RPG genre. E.g. Kingdom Come: Deliverance probably wouldn't exist if Skyrim would not exist first.
      I personally think that even nowadays the Skyrim can still out shine some of the most modern RPGs in certain areas (Heck... Even the Morrowind can). Specially when it comes to this mystical experience. Traveling in the woods or up at the mountains. The world, backstory and mythology of TES is is excellent (took many decades to build) and Skyrim managed to utilize and improve it very well. Avarti have some good points when it comes to some characters (Delphine...). Lets just hope that the TES VI will fix these issues.

The feel, the atmosphere, the deep deep lore, the charm, the janky but workable mechanics... Been a fan since Morrowind on my old ass Xbox and Skyrim, though "dumbed down", is my all time favorite game and has never left that number one spot. I even got my mother and 10yr old daughter heavily (and I am not exaggerating lol) into gaming via Skyrim. This Christmas I'm actually getting my daughter her own Switch with Skyrim and a few other games but had to make sure Skyrim was one of them cause she's put over 300 hrs into it on our shared Switch.
      I know we have at least Outer Worlds from Bioware which is pretty good and definitely inspired by Bethesda's games, but it missed so many marks of furthering such complexity and world building that the immersion is just not there for me though I did enjoy it.

      Same. I was a bit older, 20, and I was working 10hr shifts with 3hrs commute and feeling hopeless and trapped. And when I get home, instead of sleeping, I would open the window wide to let the cold air in, wrap in a blanket and just wander around Skyrim. For all its faults, this game saved my sanity and probably my life too, and it would not have been the same without this soundtrack.

I'm not saying he's innocent, but again, I'm not saying he's guilty either. I HOPE he's innocent, but that means nothing. If he's guilty, well, then he must pay his debt to society, and have his name put on that list. But I have to say, it's amazing how an accusation can ruin a person's career, true or not. Accused of being a Rapist, Your professional Career is over, even if it's not true. Again, we don't know.

      Dude I swear, even you mentioning it I'm getting emotional. The beautiful nuance and independence of the lines, the lovely resonant instrumentation of the live version. The piano and flute in Past to Present has such a Christmassy feel to it and I remember nearly 10 years ago returning to this when I was 16, in October-December 2013, cosy as I explored, if nothing else just to hear the music. I'd have a glass of coke, have Friends on in the background and just venture out into Skyrim while amazing music like that sounds in the background. While I found the anniversary edition totally disappointing, this live edition, to me, would have been worth the price of admission alone.

    This breaks my heart. Truly.
    I’ve started playing Skyrim 10 years ago, when I was just some child who had gotten his first computer. Since then, the game, the soundtrack and everything surrounding it had been a constant companion in my life. I’m now very much of a young adult, I’ve since moved, bought a different computer, started studying in a city far from home. And yet, as I write these lines, I feel an enormous amount of pride in my chest. Pride, but also gratitude. Gratitude for the literal decade of entertainment without which my life would’ve been completely different. Gratitude for a soundtrack so sublimely written and realized that it is not only the soundtrack to the game, but also the soundtrack to my life, in a way that perhaps only Howard shore or John Williams can rival.
    After 12678 hours I’ve personally poured into Skyrim, which is 1/19th of my life, as it happens, I want to thank everyone who contributed to making this happen.
    Lok bo, Thu’um tuum.
