To defend you though. A lot of people mistake this because of the graphic comparison. Easily mistaken.

Less the graphics and more the different combat, magic, creature spawns (though in hindsight I see how that would work, I've modded Morrowind before...), (badly) animated faces, and largely pointless inclusion of physics.

But then, Ocarina of Time was built off of Super Mario 64's engine too, IIRC, just with considerable modification. So it really shouldn't surprise me.

So, just preordered this badboy yesterday from Gamestop. I'm going to the midnight release this Thursday, like a boss.

With that said, I can now say goodbye to my social life.

I wasn't going to originally, but I figure they're changing enough that it should at least be interesting. Plus I've never gotten an Elder Scrolls game on release before.

So I preordered it a week or two ago.

So my plan is to get the game, come back to my house, strip off all of my clothes except for my underwear and a wool blanket and open up all the windows and blast the AC...

Unfortunately, I will be late getting this game. Finally paid of my taxes and I'm currently going to be broke for the next two weeks. Maybe I can purchase this game on Friday give or take if I have the bank all balanced out.

I have; been watching streams (Someone got the PC version early) and you guys are in for a real treat. This game looks pretty damn amazing and there looks to be a lot of depth in it. Nothing like what Oblivion was before (Which is what they said when Oblivion came out, if you want to compare that with now)

Also I watched some dude try and fight a random dragon and it sure looks hard! GL HF!

Yeah, I am utterly broke and have to buy a new battery for my car probably, I am really thinking of maybe trying to luck out and just trade in a dozen of my old 360 games I'll probably never ever touch again. I haven't traded in anything in years and am personally against it (such a loss of money to me), but eh ... half my 360 collection I don't really hold in high regard at all, lol. I might do it... is there a way to check online Gamestop or something to see how much credit I can get for stuff? Or any other sites/places like that?

You'd be surprised how much you'd get trading in. I traded in about 5 games I never planned on playing again and got around $120. Unfortunately for me, I bought Modern Warfare 2 with that money. I never even got to play it.

I know Cheap Ass Gamer has a section on trade-ins but don't know the accuracy of them and if you do trade things in, take advantage of Gamestop's trade-in deals.

I, too, will not being getting this game because I just spent all my money of the MGS collection.

Cross-posted from Jul (where I'm Stigandr)


Killed a dragon. That was cool.

Had more fun in the dungeon before, though. My woefully under-equipped assassin-wannabe had two daggers, crappy armor, and three Draugr on my ass. So I ran back to the previous room, carefully dodged a pressure plate, and let them walk into the trap.

WHAM! Spike wall swings in, killing them and launching them across the room. Another, an archer, had lagged behind, but I still had a cheap invisibility potion. Chugged that, he came slowly creeping into the room looking for me, but once again, he should've been looking at the floor.

WHAM! No more Draugr.

Still no healing pots, but I made it through the dungeon. Lit some floor oil on fire to take out two of them, cut the others down with a looted sword and fire magic.

That was fun!

That same exact glitch happened to me - except it wasn't the kitty flying through the stratosphere! XD

E- Brace for impact, I'm uploading a video to YouTube.

I totally plan on getting this... but I face a dilemma. PC or Xbox 360. Xbox means I get to play on the awesome HD tv, and that Ben might able to play it at some point... but it also means vying for tv time. PC... well... firstly I don't know how well it will run. There there is my notorious habit of never finishing games on the PC (I still haven't beaten SC2... or even NWN 2)... decisions decisions!

Only get the PC version if you plan on modding it later, otherwise the console version will run it fine.

And without further adieu...

Oh my God why can't 10AM come early so I can pick this game up.

Also I have some friends coming over to watch me play and do commentary. I wonder what that means. Huh.

This game is so fucking baller. Not gonna lie, if this shit isn't GOTY I am going to be pissed off. Nelrith and I are talking to each other on Steam and we are both learning new shit and just wanting more out of this game.

Best of all, We have not made it past level 20 yet. And we are ONLY JUST STARTING.

This game owns. Xeogaming game of the fucking year right here guys. Don't miss out.

If you cac; get it on PC. Sure the DLC is nice on the Xbox a month early. But I plan on modding the hell out of this game the same way I did Morrowind back in 1998. So if you want content: I can bring you content. Plus it feels this game was pretty much ment to be played on PC anyways. And if you have a nice ass PC then you are pretty much experiencing this game the right way.

Once I beat it and join the modding community I'll be adding shit to this game so you guys can try out and play along with. It's too bad that when the mods you can't get achievements. Just get them first before you start playing the mods then geez
