I've been playing it since I got home. Pretty amazing, except for some minor things. Was strolling in the mountains on horseback when all of a sudden an ass noclipped through the ground into my path.


seems legit. Other than a few small things here & there, I think this game is amazing.
Anyone else pick it up today? If so, what's your opinion on it?

Ok, sorry for this, but...

I don't know what the F Skyrim is, but that is fricking hilarious.

Looks great, I was going to get it but I'll need to buy a new graphics card first; I've fried this one.

Haha. Elder Scrolls used to be super glitchy for me. I can't wait to get my hands on Skyrim! Oh my terrible terrible obsession with games. I've been looking forward to this one for the past year.

Bethesda never really gets any of their game engines right... You can use the excuse that the world is too expansive to fully work all the bugs out, but I think they're just lazy. Don't get me wrong though, I'm buying Skyrim. And just like after the Oblivion release, won't see my girlfriend, friends, or family for a month or two.

I already finished the main quest line and probably half of the mini/side quests already. It was enjoyable for the most part but i had some problems with the way they dealed with the ending.

Spoiler

After beating the main quest line i actually wasn't sure if i beat the game or not and had to do some googling to find out that this game lacks an ending cinematic or something similar to that. I enjoyed the game up to the end, but the lack of a conclusion sort of killed it for me. Its sort of like when you play a warcraft 3 custom RPG, spend 5 hours on it, beat the final boss, and all you get is a game over. Except here it doesn't even tell you that you beat the game.

They should have done what they did with the fall out series where they give you an ending that details what happens to each of the towns and what impact your character's actions have post game, and then continued to let you finish the side quests afterwards. Instead of having nothing at all.

Oh my god, that is hilarious. I haven't gotten it yet but I'm hoping I have time to play it over winter break. I want to be an Argonian Werewolf!

So what's the point of Skyrim? Like what do you do in the game?

its an rpg, you go around doing quests, collect boar livers, save the world etc .......

its pretty similar (questing and gameplay) to fall out 3 and fall out new vegas if you've ever played those

Every fucking thing.


It has a huge, open world, with thousands of question to do, dungeons to explore, and all kinds of awesome shit to happen. Plus, it looks sexy as fuck.

That's all I need to know.

Too bad Skyrim isn't an MMO.

Not to mention if skyrim were an mmo, it would go like this:

Pay subscription
Log in
Do quests.
Fight monsters.
Log off
Sleep
Log in
Do the same quests again.
Fight the same monsters again! Yeah!
Log off
Log in.
Sup. You remember those quests right? Good man. Go do them again.
FIGHT THAT MONSTER AGAIN!

Repeat until next billing cycle.

On topic though, I'm playing an argonian mage, and standing at a chokepoint using lightning storm with a 150% fortify destruction magic potion is probably the most fun I've had in a game in a long time.
