The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Amount of Players: It is a single-player game.

Type of Game: Skyrim is an action-roleplaying game, its main story focuses on the player's character, the Dragonborn, on their quest to defeat Alduin the World-Eater, a dragon who is prophesied to destroy the world. Now, that's just the main storyline, the DLC is another matter altogether, but they do correspond to each other.

Graphics: I have to admit that having played games with better graphics than Skyrim, I remind myself that it was released back in 2011 and not later years.

Difficulty: The game has different sets of difficulties for all players, and the first one is the beginner difficulty which is for beginners. The difficulties vary for every player (You choose how easy/hard you want the game to be).

Game Navigation: It is fairly easy to navigate through the game, you are able to change the layout of your controller/keyboard if you want.

Gameplay: The gameplay in Skyrim is beautiful as heck, and I love the fact that you don't have to be careful as to what actions you do (in Fallout 4, in order to romance any of the companions, you needed to act a certain way for them to like you enough) you can just buy an amulet of Mara, (she's like the Skyrim version of Hera) and put it on, then talk to the companion you wish to be with.

How many times can it be Played: From what I've seen, gamers do different playthroughs/run-throughs of the game to try different things/outcomes.

Enjoyment: From what I have played, I have so far thoroughly enjoyed the game. Even though the graphics are a bit old for these new consoles, I still love the game.

Saving: It does allow you to save and pick up back where you left off last time.
