The Elder Scrolls - Megathread - Skyrim is 57 days away!

[FrozenEye]

it was released day of launch for new vegas, i just checked. probably will be like 2 days late because of updated stuff, NV was a re skinned FO3 so modding it wasn't hard.

within like 2 months of release there will be a mass graphical overhaul mod that will crank the game up to true potential, but i dunno if i would want it or not some of them (gta4) just look bad...

does steam allow preloading for these games, so i don't have to wait till 11/13/11 to actually play it...

I dunno what happens if you preorder.
I would suggest doing that, and if not, you can download it 11/11/11

What's beautiful about Oblivion's character creation is that race doesn't determine proficiency in a certain field.
When it says Argonians are "good at picking locks" it means "If the player chooses to be an Argonian, he will start out with a higher Security skill than if he had chosen a different race."

If I wanted to make an axe-wielding Orsimer thief, with proper training he could steal the clothes off people's backs without them noticing. It may take a bit longer than if he had chosen a Wood Elf, but it will work in the end.


I hope they do this in Skyrim.

Orc and thief together would ruin the roleplaying experience :C
Theyre too damn bulky to be effective thieves.

You're a damn tribal. Orcs are as versatile as Imperials.
Just like how, with enough training, a Khajiit would be a better wizard than an Altmer.

Anyway
There was a guy outside his house in Bruma where the Grey Fox was waiting for me. He was screaming "THE GREY FOX IS WAITING FOR YOU!" right in front of a guard when I approached him. Dude, keep your mouth shut or I'll put an arrow through your eye, blood price be damned.

An Altmer has the highest magery (it's a word, shut up) potential.

OK GUYS. TIME TO CREATE MYSELF A NEW CHARACTER FOR USE IN OBLIVION AND PROBABLY SKYRIM, MAYBE MORROWIND

im thinking a Nord battlemage, leaning more toward the mage side. heavy armor and axes/blunt weapons whatever, and magic shtuff.

[FrozenEye]

Im not making a nord.
Nords are ugly.
I dont care if it follows the storyline.

In my eyes, Im being led to my execution because Im a Khajiit, and all the guards are tribal bastards.

Imperial will be the Dragonborn

Imperial will be the Dragonborn

But all the races that you play as are Dragonborn.

Hnnng. I used to think this is cool, but after all that minecraft lawsuit stuff, I'm just going to be sick.

Oh boy. Now I have to explain this.

The makers of the Elder Scrolls Series (Todd Howard and others) had nothing to do with the lawsuit. Bethesda has a bunch of lawyers who do this stuff to make money.
Anyways, Im sure some of the makers think its sick to.


Quote from Minecraftforum.net

There seems to be some (understandable) confusion in regards to where the lawsuit is coming from. To clarify, "Bethesda Softworks" (publisher and developer of game titles) and "Bethesda Game Studios" (Creators of games like Oblivion, Skyrim etc.) are not the same entity. BGS is an in-house game-making team led by Todd Howard which is one part of Bethesda Softworks, and has no direct connection to the lawsuit in progress by Bethesda Softworks. Unless further specified by the acronym "BGS", any references to Bethesda in the following article assume "Bethesda Softworks". Sorry about the confusion!
