Add those numbers to the fabulous sales Skyrim continues to see, and the devotion of its fans is undeniable. In the first three days after Bethesda released the CK on February 7th, the Maryland developer reported more than 2 million downloads of 2,500+ mods through the Steam Workshop. Part of the appeal, at least for PC gamers like me, is the ability to mod the game’s code to suit our specific tastes and Bethesda made that even easier with the recent release of the Creation Kit.
The Escapist named it our 2011 Game of the Year, and countless other outlets have praised the open-world mechanics and the feeling of adventure Skyrim offers.
In case you were under a mountain for the last four months, Skyrim is kind of a big deal. The release of the Creation Kit is just another feather in Skyrim‘s leather helmet.
