2. Skyrim
The game seems like just about any other Bethesda title when you first make your way through the character creation screen and the rest of the tutorial phase.
It’s impressive, but it never truly comes into its own until you finally emerge from the dungeon and your companion—be it the Stormcloak or the Imperial—point out the Bleak Falls Barrow ruin in the distance. It’s at that moment that the vastness of Skyrim’s world hits you, and it’s all possible thanks to the game’s powerful engine.
