Bethesda? No thanks. I prefer Piranha Bytes.

Risen 2 (and old Gothics) FTW Smile

Bethesda RPG's in the - Orky, Gobliny, Magey kinda vein are about the only ones i can tolerate...........
Ive spent the last 2 days ill and got myself Skyrim on pre-order...... posted today they say, rock on!

Anyway, i loaded up Oblivion while i was dribbling snot of epidemic all over my keys of moppage and im throughly enjoying it..... in fact im doing better than i ever did and seeing more than i did by NOT folllowing the damn main quest.

Got in my way last time, bored me....... the little "do it if ya wanna's" are awesome.

Back to poisoning my silver blade with terps in the painted world........ divine.... just divine.....

My preorder version cost me 35 €, so either the dollar has plummeted in value since I last checked or that deal is a total ripoff.

I pre-loaded it off of Steam this morning, and took a day off Friday, so I'm set.

PVP is a question with no single right answer, but a lot of wrong ones.

You know what would be really helpful? If you actually told us where you found Skyrim for 35 euro (~48 USD.)

First hands-on review of Skyrim. I feel a bit relieved that I'm holding on to my $$ for now.

Don't read it if you want to remain positive about the game. You may want to wait until Monday.

Disclaimer: it IS a review of the 360 version, so YMMV

That's a quality review.

Looks like it's going to shine once fully modded up and patched and on special offer. I'll wait until then. God knows I've enough Steam-sale games I've bought and not played to keep me occupied until then.

You'll love this one then: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/11/10/skyrim-review-pc/

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the sequel to Oblivion, launches tomorrow. I’ve been playing the PC version of it during every waking hour of the last three and a half days, and most of the non-waking hours too. I’m still not really ready to tell you what I think. I will anyway.

I have not bought a house.
I have not worn heavy armour, wielded a two-handed weapon, dual-wielded two one-handed weapons or fired a bow (for anything other than as a distraction).
I have not got married (I did propose to a middle-aged warrior-woman by accident, but didn’t get around to seeing a priest yet).
I did not acquire any spells above Apprentice level, even though I regularly fried foes with lightning bolts.
I have not completed 44 quests listed in my journal, nor even accepted probably twice more that number.
I have not visited the vast majority of locations marked on my map.
I have not visited the college of magic, or joined a mage’s guild.
I have not contracted vampirism, though I have cleared out several vampire dens.
I have not killed anyone in cold blood, though I have been sorely tempted.
I have not hunted animals for their pelts, even though I need leather to make better armour.
I have not replaced my initial horse with a better one. I’m very fond of the fat old idiot.
I have not been invited to join the Dark Brotherhood.
I have not earned the favour of any of the Jarls who rule Skyrim’s various cities.
I have not sided with either the Stormcloaks or the Empire in the great civil war wracking Skyrim.
I have not fought a dragon.
I haven’t even seen a dragon, apart from the one in the mandatory introduction quest.
