Conan O’Brien gives ‘Skyrim’ a shot

In his latest installment of Clueless Gamer, the tall ginger with a late night talk show on basic cable has been reborn as “Mr. Buttons” the cat man.

And much like with Mincecraft and that crappy Michael Phelps Kinect game, Conan O’Brien’s total lack of any gaming acumen comes through quite clearly. Like many novices, he’s confounded by the extremely robust character creation system, is unable to grasp even the most basic of controls, is killed very easily, and can only handle the easiest difficulty level.

I will say, my Skyrim skills are better than Conan’s, though when it comes to yelling at women in the game, for their lack of gratitude for the services I perform, I’m just as vitriolic and pathetic, if not more so.
