NO

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-


I hope the wood elfs aren't still midgets.


At least they're not baby faced ugly forgets.

That goes for every race, it's so much better than HUMAN BODY + 1 OF THE 10 RACE HEADS SLAPPED ON. Oh and the body never changed by age so the Emperor had the fittest body in Tamriel.

So I've get a netherlands vpn working. Trouble is thats only 1 hour ahead of me so I get to play in about 4 hours.

Can't wait to play Skyrim after school, gonna be good.

Unlocks in 5 hours




hnnnnnnnnnng

Looks like i'm not going to be very awake for school then.


Totally worth it.




What's going to limit the use of dragon shouts, as Magcika limits the use of magic?
I doubt there's going to be a "shout bar" that makes your character temporarily lose his voice from screeching at dragons 24/7 should the bar reach zero. That'd be a tad too realistic, I think.

I have no problem with it, as long as the females aren't two heads taller than the males. Not to be chauvinistic, it's just rather confusing that there should be such a size difference among lovees of an elven race.

Menu controls for PC suck roosters

If you've rebound keys, for instance, swapping F and R (they're reversed as to how they are in Oblivion, R to sheathe/unsheathe weapons and F to change camera viewpoint by default, so I swapped them back), then in menus their actions will be swapped but it still says the same keys at the bottom.
F to favourite, R to drop. If you've swapped F and R, that's actually F to drop and R to favourite. It doesn't update to reflect this.
Also, the menu items are fiddly; sometimes in shops you can hover over one without it actually highlighting, and clicking when this happens exits the shop menu. Really really annoying.

Aside from that I've noticed a fair few minor cosmetic bugs (missing interior faces on a few helmets, seaming on the Jarl of Whiterun's right forearm when he moves his hand around) but it hasn't genuinely crashed once yet. It hung on quicksaves a couple of times but hasn't done it for like four hours and I quicksave constantly.

Crafting is pretty cool; even at low levels you can add two damage to most weapons with upgrades. Crafted gear isn't redundant and unworthy of use. The alchemy system is pretty cool too, having to discover effects by experimentation. Disenchanting items to unlock enchanting effects is also pretty cool. I've not been able to find how to smelt bars of metal from ore yet though - it's not at the blacksmith's forge.

Also, you can play hide and seek with the children.

I don't want to play hide and seek, I want to kill them. You can't become an ultimate badass unless you kill everything that moves.
