Re: Skyrim
I have neither owned nor played any of the series. However i do know that Bethesda games are... meh until modded. Fallout 3 was fairly fun the first time through, a couple of years later mine is loaded with about 15 separate mods on top of each other all mashed into one semi-stable game. Now the game is totally different from the original and approximately a million times better than the original. MAKE WAY FOR ME AND MAH 20MM CANNON AND PLASMA MINIGUN, hehehehe.
I expect Skyrim to be OK first time through, and a couple of years later to be an epic.
I'm still not buying it though.

Re: Skyrim
Well, Smokey, to be fair - all Bethesda games are bugged as hell upon release and I'm expecting no different this time through. They're already issuing a patch fixing some minor glitches - Oblivion was almost unplayable, Daggerfall has been called Buggerfall for a reason. I'm pre-odering tomorrow, but I'm still wondering if it's the right call and if it wouldn't be a better idea to calm my tits and wait till the first few patches are out and there's a discount on Steam (although I'm getting it for ~$35 so I doubt there'll be a better deal on Steam within the next few months).
I'll see you on the Dark Side of the Moon

Re: Skyrim
The bugs should be far less prevalent in Skyrim as the game has literally been built from the ground up. They built the whole engine for it from scratch to address some of the issues, so I think there will seriously be some improvement over the others.
As for Oblivion I seriously didn't get hindered by bugs at all. The only bug that comes to mind was the scroll duplication glitch thing and that's about it.
Also it get's released tomorrow, no need to preorder There are many games that get patched upon release. It's not unusual. It will be bad if they have to patch it like Dead Island did, but that seriously won't be the case

Re: Skyrim
Well I just played Skyrim for a couple of hours...yeah don't judge Bethesda until you've at least played Daggerfall, Morrowind and Oblivion.
So unbelievably meh I would actually consider it to be a bad game .... don't be hatin haters. IT IS, IT IS BAD BAD BAD.
Hand to hand combat like that should not exist in this day and age. Clearly they don't play Movie Battles 2.
Now I need to make an inpenetrable hater proof fortress before I get burnt at the stake.

Re: Skyrim
How could you? The graphics blow, but some random mod will sort that out in a few months I suppose.Go die. I saw a mountain and wept at the beauty.
When I played it, it felt EXACTLY like fallout 3, just with trees and no guns. I don't know where the praise for this game comes from. Nostalgia I suppose. If it was free I probably wouldn't play it.

Re: Skyrim
The graphics blow? Play it on a proper computer.
The praise for this game comes from the fact that they packed in an infinite-quest system gen, 315 unique locations, 600MB alone for a massive range of dialogue, music, sound effects etc, dynamic weather, more shit to do than anyone could imagine with up to 300 hours of unique gameplay, and for the love of Christ I just killed a bee and put it's stinger into a poison. How many games can you do that? You can go wherever you want, do whatever you want. Sandbox has been redefined. Last night I was playing tag with some children in a beautifully crafted medieval city. Like, how can that much detail exist anywhere in a game? How can ~6GB hold so much?
That's where it comes from. I'm not telling you to love it, or even like it, but if you try and tell me that this is a shit game and that;
There are many things in this world that I dislike, but I can appreciate. I don't like death metal but I can appreciate the technical skill of the musicians. I don't like beer a whole lot, but I can appreciate that it has stood the test of time, and is an acquired taste. There are some things that are just genuinely shit in this world, like the West Borough Baptists' view on homosexual people, Justin Bieber's music, or stepping on a LEGO brick, but Skyrim is not one of these things.

Re: Skyrim
I've got no complaints so far, 3 hours into the game. Feels like Oblivion and other Bethesda games, but it's polished and at least I haven't stumbled upon any capital glitches or bugs. Sure, the animations look recycled, ice-skating can be bothersome, but overall, seems they nailed it pretty well ^^
I'm really glad I can play it on medium/high with E7200 @ 2.53 MhZ and GeForce 9600 GT, though I'd love to play it on ultra >.>

Re: Skyrim
I'm really quite happy with the game. It is what I expected!
The only bug that really affected me was that shift-tabbing into the steam menu while in a conversation made it so you could not exit the conversation interface.

I can hold my breath underwater forever, and when an enchanted sword runs out of power whilst dual wielding difficulty with equipping something else in that hand ensues.

Re: Skyrim
Not sure whether a bug or intended, but I cannot un-equip the spell 'Flames' its so fucking annoying.
Also, don't waste 1000g on a horse. I killed mine within 10 minutes of purchase from jumping a small gap.
Apart from that, I'm loving it. I've never really played an RPG game before, so wasn't entirely sure what to expect.

Re: Skyrim
There were always going to be problems with it. Walking through the land I remember Oblivion fondly from the style it is, and there is nothing wrong with that, because Oblivion was far beyond it's time. I've not run into any bugs mentioned and I've been going like 15 hours on it. Shift+Tabing sometimes means I CAN ONLY TYPE IN ALL CAPS FOR SOME REASON but that's a Steam-side thing if anything.
The sheer expanse of this game still melts my face off. It feels like the sheer amount of shit you can do in Runescape but 1 trillion times better managed and 1 sextillion sexier.

Re: Skyrim
Fixed the bug with the spell, for anyone that encounters it you need to equip a 1h weapon, then you can change it to what you like strangely.
Successfully recreated the bug to, it seems to only happen when you try to Dual-wield Two spells that can't be used twice. E.g Two Ice Spikes.

Re: Skyrim
So, I've never played any Elder Scrolls, not much of an RPG fan (I played some classic RPGs), I don't even know what the game is about. I'm not getting it right now, care to explain to me what the story (in general) is and how it works?

Re: Skyrim
Every game in the series takes part in a different province of the same continent, where different events unfold such as they are written down in the Elder Scrolls.

Hit_Girl, I've had my horse from Whiterun for the last 12 hours of gameplay. I've not fast traveled once either, so the horse sees plenty of action. You're a horrible horse owner.
