It's a bit short, but an otherwise great game. I recommend this game strongly. I love this game more than my mother.

I used to be a Bethesda dev working on Skyrim. I tried to make sleeping a meaningful mechanic, as player recover as they sleep. I also designed cool dream themed menus with deep proverbs while opposing factions may try to assassinate you while you sleep in late-game. I geniunely believed this would be very immersive, a neat break from the flow for players to think and plan their character. Todd Howard, however, was not as pleased. He calls me out during a meeting, belittles me in front of our coworkers and calls me "Dreamboy". The whole company now makes fun out of me and calls me Dreamboy.

I got demoted, but I kept working. I thought about how to make the passing of in-game time more meaningful. The "Dragon Apocalypse" happens on day 50 and the Aldmeri Dominion invades on day 100. This would immerse the player in a sense of heroism and danger. When I go to the toilet after finishing these changes... Todd finds me and repeatedly punches me in the liver and solar plexus while calling my son an autistic r*tard.

I got demoted to Janitor's closet now. I still tried to make the best of it and kept working hard. I made it so that NPCs from the opposing faction are hostile, and you have to sneak or disguise yourself if you want to do business in Solitude as a Stormcloak, for example. To me, this would make the game intense and real. I come home later that day and found my wife crying in the living room, and when I asked what's wrong, she said that a man approached our son at school and asked him if it's "hard to be a r*tard with a f*g dad."

Although I should have stopped at this point, I felt like it was still my duty to make this game as good as possible. I wanted to include an optional "Hardcore Mode" like in New Vegas - I believed this would immerse players as it would make food and taverns meaningful. Later that night when I took out the trash, someone throws a bag over my head. I hear people laughing and making fun out of me as someone is stomping on me. Then suddenly, after taking kicks and punches for a long time, someone pulls the bag off me. I felt a wet finger pressing against my anal.
I hear Todd's voice saying, "Is that hardcore enough for you, Dreamboy?"
