Elder Scrolls V

[Q]

All games are flawed. But "very" flawed?

Yes. The game was one gigantic exploit. It's almost as if it was intended to be that way from the beginning as some sort of inside joke by its developers.

How many mods did you use on your last play through of Morrowind?

No doubt they could have put little more effort into the models/textures (some of the "Better Heads" models have fewer polys than the originals and look significantly better).

One of the drawbacks of "sandbox" play, I suppose. Of course, I also suppose that what you do in the sandbox is kinda sorta your decision, right?

[Q]

Correct. While taking advantage of the exploits (and therefore "pooping in the sandbox" ) is fun for the first couple of playthroughs, you really have to excercise some self-control in order to enjoy the game after that. To me, this actually represents part of the challenge of playing the game.

I'll be the devil here and say: i did not enjoy Morrowind. Not a single bit. Blame Oblivion for it being played first.

 

While the news of a new ES are awesome, i was never that much of a fan of the Nords. I just wonder if the terrain will be all snowy.

I suppose it's easier/more enjoyable if you have anal retentive tendencies

While Skyrim has been portrayed as a mountainous snowy land in the in-game lore that might change in the actual game, so you never know.

 

For example, prior to Oblivion being released Cyrodiil was described in the lore as a dense, mostly uninhabited jungle with just a few major cities and towns. In Oblivion it suddenly morphed into a standard European-medieval setting, and the Imperial City shrunk from a huge metropolis to little more than a big fortress.

At least we can hope: mudcrabs shouldn't be able to survive in that cold and therefore we shouldn't hear again "I saw some mudcrabs by the water recently. I steered clear of them.".

[mimartin]

 

Instead we will hear

 

"I saw some snowcrabs by the water recently. I steered clear of them.". At least they should be better eating than mudcrabs.

[Darth333]

 

"I saw some snowcrabs

Dammit! I forgot about those creatures...

 

I hope there will at least be some sexy strong Nord males who aren't always under mead influence

[Achilles]

So long as it's too cold for goblins, that's all I care about.

[Ctrl Alt Del]

I hope it's too cold for the Khajiits. Am I the only racist to find those guys unbearable?

Disgusting creatures...

No, Alessia Ottus would agree with you. Here is hoping Elder Scrolls V is not a MMO or you may have to beware of a cute stealthy female wood elf with a strong dislike of specist.

Let's pray the Nine Divines it isn't...elderscrollsonline.com has been registered by ZeniMax last year...

And, for the love of God, no cliff racers!

[LordRevan999]

Finally,I was wondering when Elder Scrolls V would be coming as Gothic 4 was announced to be coming in winter 2009.All I need from this new game is some beautiful characters to make as player.And to have some good and long story.And it wouldn't hurt to see some new guilds around.

[Jason Skywalker]

oh i selling iron sword for 1k plz buy thx lol

 

Oh god, i can already imagine.

[RedHawke]

how's that song go....

 

"We'll frolic and play, the ol' Nordic way,

Walking in a winter wonderland."

 

leastways, that's how i remember it.

I was right!

 

And, for the love of God, no cliff racers!

Word!

[Nedak]

I can't wait.

 

I'm addicted to Oblivion.

There are support groups for that kinda thing, you know. But if you're in a good place with it...
