While you get in position to cast magic missile I'll put a handful more arrows into you

If thats just basic I need to buy some new comp parts, my fanschmancy $3k Dell will already crash to desktop with Oblivion maxed out. |

Might have to pick this up when it comes out... I've got Morrowind and the Elder Scrolls game of the year edition... I've suffered from a couple of the bugs that game had because it was rushed out the door... my character got stuck in a room and couldn't get out and I had to restart. It sucked.
Hopefully Bethesda is spending their time on bug fixing... I'll be getting it for my Xbox 360... my PC isn't up to the task of running this game... and I won't be upgrading it anymore. |
It matters not what is said, for spoken words go unheeded. Speakest thout into the void, and suffer the silence that is returned to you.

One huge advantage to playing on PC is the ability to use the console and modify the game during moments like this. I have been stuck in crevasses and such before in Oblivion, just hit tab then "noclip" gets you out of a jam quick. Also if the game glitches and an item or character you need to progress in the game has vanished (like not in the fucking game anymore....) you can add the item / character and move on with the game. Nothing is worse than restarting after 100 hours of gameplay.... |

I built a massive gaming PC and haven't touched it since I got my PS3. I prefer playing games on a machine made to play games...rather than try to play games on a machine that has multiple other purposes. Trying to keep up with driver and software updates, crashing to desktop because some other program decided it needed to be the most important thing right then or that it wanted to conflict with a driver that was in use...no thanks. To each his own. I definitely don't want to get into the PC vs console debate. It's all about personal preference. As for Skyrim...I absolutely cannot wait for this game. I haven't been more excited for a game since Final Fantasy III (actually Final Fantasy VI but they changed the number for the United States) back when I was still in highschool. Final Fantasy VII was close but I was working, in college, old enough to drink, and had seen a vagina by then so gaming had lost quite a bit of its hold on me. |
I used to feel sorry for myself because I couldn't afford shoes...until I met a man who had no feet.

I meant you're missing out on Skyrim/Elder Scrolls stuff. The downloadable content really helps the game. Yep. As has been said in this thread many times, the modding community for TES games is huge. For me, Skyrim is a must play with PC game because of what you'll be able to download apart from official expansions from Bethesda. To each their own of course, but you will be missing a significant part of Skyrim by playing it solely on a console. More on topic: I haven't seen any new content released lately. I hope we get some more soon. |

While this has nothing to do with Skyrim, I thought it was way to awesome to not post. Some dude printed every book in Oblivion into one giant book.

Sneak attacks with daggers do 15x damage

It looks good so far. And it seems you can finally stab people which, mods aside, has been long overdue with everybody waving swords around! Some of the accents that NPCs seem to have in a few videos didn't sound quite right, but that was a complaint with Morrowind and Oblivion, too.
This PC only just managed Oblivion on minimum graphics (smoothly), so Sexbox it is. Originally Posted By InjunJoe:

They really knocked Sneak effectiveness down from Oblivion and Fallout 3 in Fallout NV. If the invisibility and chameleon mechanics aren't as overpowered as in Oblivion, and the AI is as sensitive to your approach as NV, it should be fairly difficult to get close enough without detection. Morrowind was good for OP-ness. Levitation probably won't be making a return! And neither will moon jumping across the landscape via maxed out Acrobatics. |
