Let’s not forget that Skyrim has TONS of cosmetic mods to improve upon the look of the base game. Base Skyrim can be pretty. Modded Skyrim can be stunningly gorgeous. There was a time when people mainly only used ENBs that gave it a dimension of realism for screenshots because it’d bring a system to its knees. Now people use similar levels to actually play the game with. This is what I’m waiting for to happen with Starfield before I buy it, so it might be a few years before I finally do. Until then my No Man’s Sky still mostly scratches my scifi gaming itch.
