Epic.

Skyrim remains even after a 11 years, one of the best RPGs in existence. Immerson, story telling, character creation, dozens of hours of game play, endless quests and a sense of heroism and agency that was ahead of its time in 2011. It is endlessly entertaining and every time you play you still discover something you've not seen before.
