I've sat through them fifteen times now and they just simply have to be the best credits in the history of gaming. The music, the font, everything has been thought through amazingly well by Bethesda. The length is perfect for credits to run for - 10:53 minutes. Not too long, not too short. You just have to sit through the whole thing once you've started watching, with the epic music blaring at you triumphantly, it's intoxicating. The graphical layout is brilliant, with the silhouette in the background symbolizing the fulfilment of Dragonborn's destiny and the legend of the Dovakhin set into stone for the citizens of Skyrim and Tamriel. Even the spacing between the names has been judged to perfection. Surely these credits will take their place in the annals of excellence among our heroic Nord ancestors past, and are destined be handed down to generations before us, our children and our childrens' children, unto eternity.
What does everyone else think?

Have I missed something?
I'm sure I completed it
I defeated Alduin in Sovengarde
And was returned to Throat of the World.....and Paarthurnax spoke to me and what not....and that was it. No more quests were offered, but I'm sure I didn't see any credits.
The only thing that I can think of is that
I didn't kill Paarthurnax when the Blades asked me to, and that quest is still active
Hmmmmm....

I'm watching through the credits now on Youtube and it's just a bland screen with music playing with normal writing going across...nothing special there.

The music in particular is just your cliche' epic fantasy orchestra that I've heard a million times before (and done better).

Sorry, nope, I've watched way better and much more entertaining credits.

EDIT: So it's a joke eh? Wouldn't surprise me if it was serious though...not at all.

How very subtle of you.

Albeit not entirely uncalled for.

Ahahahaha, very nicely done (assuming this is some tongue-in-cheek fun-poking at both camps of the raging Skyrim-fuelled debates).
 

Best of the 3

Not really. Seen better. It's a great song and all to close to, but there have been a lot better credits which hold my attention.

EDIT: reread, I see what you did thar. I hope. Need more sleep -3-

Gave me a good chuckle.

But seriously, the best end credits to a game go to Vanquish:

Even though that was sarcastic, I am going to go ahead and say that since Skyrim is the best game of all time, it must have the best credits.

I would put my vote on Portal or Portal 2 end credits. Ellen McLain has a great voice and the names are listed in alphabetical order and not directors first then everyone else making everyone who made the games equaly important.
