Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

The modding community made Oblivion, for me. No contest - PC version.

but for different reasons. I only really get xbawks time when the mrs is out, which is rare enough in the evenings to be annoying if its a game I really want to be playing. On the PC, I can play whenever I want. Plus, playing anything first person is so much nicer with mouse+keyboard.

This for those reasons, modding reasons and optimisation reasons. I dabbled with modding Oblivion and I'd like to try again with Skyrim.

I tried all that FCOM convergence stuff. Took all day to install, game worked fine for a while, then started CTDing on fast travel so I get fed up and quit. Shame, cos I was just getting back into it again. I can't really be bothered to fix it given that Skyrim is just around the corner now.

PC for me, solely because of the controls.

Can't be doing with FPS/RPG/WHATEVER IT IS on a console.

1 week to go

I'm going for PS3 because I will have more opportunity to play whilst the missus works on the PC, then will probably get it cheaps much later for the mods on PC

friznit · Post by **friznit** » November 4th, 2011, 14:53

I'm on holiday until 28th. Hopefully they'll have fixed all the bugs from the shitty marketing driven release by then.

I could say I'll wait to buy the game until I've finished RAGE, or some balls like that. But it's pointless as I'm bound to just buy anyway, even if I don't have time to play it. And I'll be getting Batman a few days after release of Skyrim.

Those of you that haven't seen it already should read this: Things I ate in Skyrim. I found myself mentally doing a Hannibal Lecter voice.

Its spoiler free, don't worry.

I don't like that I will be BUSY™ for most of Friday/Saturday/Sunday. Must make time for gaems.

I have no plans this weekend, which means my game will arrive on Monday morning.

Post by **tandino** » November 7th, 2011, 17:29

Pre purchased on Steam and it's unlocking at 00:01 on Friday morning. Managed to get Friday as my day off this week as well, so hurrah! Also, found this on (the newly discovered (for me at least)) reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/skyrim/comments ... _gamebryo/ Seems madness remains in Skyrim.

I have Friday and Monday booked off so I can get my geek on.

I risked being erased from my mother's will by making lots of excuses about how I couldn't go and visit her, when really I just want to play Skyrim. And get drunk. And play BF3. And get drunk again.

This with a number of commitments this weekend. I've even bought two bottles of mead to drink whilst slaying, like Nords of old. Possibly.

Haha, those lyrics were actually pretty clever, but anyone rapping in a plummy English accent just sounds like comedy to me.
