Players can fast travel to cover large distances quickly, or they can ride horses to explore regions fairly quickly but in detail. The player can play from a first-person or third-person perspective, exploring the richly detailed world which includes wilderness areas, towns and cities – both large and small, fortresses and small rural villages.
There is no urgency to complete the main story arc, so players can explore the whole map and focus on character building before returning to pick up the threads of the storyline and work to defeat Alduin. The player must work to increase his or her characters strengths and abilities, while working their way across the map. The action takes place in the world of Skyrim, specifically in the northernmost province of Tamriel. The Skyrim games (the Elder Scroll series) are multi award-winning games known for their open world play, immensely detailed worlds and free-form gameplay that allow the player to drive the action, and to a certain extent, the story.Īlduin the World Eater is the central antagonist in this game, a massive dragon who is prophesied to end the world.
