Even the DLC was so buggy that I couldn't even finish a single one, apart from the one where I built a really glitchy house. Perhaps calling Skyrim "bad" is too far but the fact remains the game was buried in problems. I can't remember the story, I only remember characters by their appearance and I vaguely remember really bad voice acting, what I remember most about Skyrim was looting caves. For me, retrospectively, I didn't get a lot out of Skyrim even though I remember being amazed by it on release.
    Is that really true though? Have you been keeping up with Triple A releases of the past decade? Warcraft 3: Reforged, Mass Effect: Andromeda, Anthem, The Division, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Battlefield V, WWE 2K20, and the list goes on and on and on and on. Can good gameplay, carry a game? The players of Fallout 4 seem to think so, since when that came out I remember in my YouTube feed, and what I saw regurgitated on various message boards, "good game, bad Fallout game". On the flipside, can a good story (good writing) carry bad gameplay? Again many players (and reviewers) of various games that suffer from this also seem to think so. I'd say hmm.. Planescape Torment could fall under this category, as an example.
