The team opted for a unique and more diverse open world than Oblivion 's Imperial Province of Cyrodiil, which game director and executive producer Todd Howard considered less interesting by comparison. Skyrim was developed using the Creation Engine, which was rebuilt specifically for the game. The game continues the open world tradition of its predecessors by allowing the player to travel anywhere in the game world at any time, and to ignore or postpone the main storyline indefinitely. Over the course of the game, the player completes quests and develops the character by improving skills. 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. The game is set 200 years after the events of Oblivion and takes place in Skyrim, the northernmost province of Tamriel, a continent on the planet Nirn. It is the fifth main installment in The Elder Scrolls series, following The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (2006), and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on November 11, 2011. If you're unfamiliar with Amiibo, check out our guide on the platform which should give you an idea of how it works.The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. The two differences are a new outfit and Amiibo support. The gameplay in the game has been tweaked, although very slightly. The layout can be thankfully adjusted, however, that is not recommended as it would cause trouble getting used to other games running on the Switch, which do not support button remapping.

The second change in interacting with the game might be very annoying for some users like it was for myself. As opposed to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, motion controls are, thankfully, entirely optional and not forced upon you. All you have to do is make sure the options are on then aim your bow by pressing ZR and moving your Joy-Cons around. You can aim your bow and shoot with it by enabling the settings from the 'Controls' section of the menu if you disabled it. If you played Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you should be familiar with the new ways to control Skyrim. Nintendo is (in)famous for its use of motion- and gesture-based controls in its consoles, with no exception on the Switch.

The settings and features are on par with other consoles, however, if you're coming from PC you'll lose the graphics options which may not be a big deal, however, considering the poor contrast settings Skyrim comes with out of the box, not being able to change the in-game brightness is a big deal for big fans of the franchise. Skyrim for the Switch features things like quicksave, which was introduced in the Special Edition of the game. While undocked, the game runs at an average of 30 frames per second (FPS), which feels reasonably smooth even if you're used to a smoother 60FPS experience. The game looks definitely better than the original game on the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3, however, while docked, the game suffers from some frame drops from time to time, which wasn't the case on the older generation consoles.
