normies like movie games

Because of the whole "go anywhere do anything" gameplay. Bethesda makes the opposite of movie games. They're shit at it, but there's not too much competition. There's a lot of "go anywhere" games that followed in Skyrim's wake but with few exceptions they've fallen flat on the interactivity that fans of them crave.

I think Todd said in an interview once that even he didn't understand why Skyrim became so insanely popular compared to previous games like Oblivion and Fallout 3.
I think it's because Skyrim is more of an action/adventure game than an rpg, so it has that Bethesda "go anyway" element while lacking the numbers aspect that was present when handling your character in Oblivion and Fallout 3.

Skyrim might be shit mechanically compared to older gamesin the series but there is still nothing else like it
I wish other western devs would copy them and gave me character creation, no MC that monologues to itself no forced story, no multiplayer, mod tools and options many options
Even cyberpunk is doing it wrong with forced first person and awful GTA gameplay
Skyrim might suck but we have nothing else
Fuck

a very good hook
