Yeah I agree.
Some of the games I've listed are epic games. With the exception of Dishonored (which I really think sucks) all of the games I've talked about are good games and worth the money. I'm more just thinking from the point of view: "Is it what all the hype says it is". I remember waiting from the time Skyrim was announced, expecting it to be the game that ends all games. They built it up like it was going to be the greatest game ever. I trekked for 4 hours in the middle of the night to get this game at midnight release. While I wouldn't say it disappointed me, I can't say it lives up to the enormous hype surrounding it either. It's a very good game. A great game. But it's not a 10/10. And it's nowhere near as good as what Bethesda wanted me to believe it would be prior to release. They overhyped the character interactions, the quests, the customisation, even the setting of Skyrim itself.
