Hell no I'm not playing it on a console. For a start it's gonna look so much better on a PC. Apparently the Steam side of things is just for initial "you're not stealing our game, that's ok" verification and then it can be uninstalled. So I hope that's true.

That's not typically how steam works, but who knows, maybe they're branching out. :) Lol @ console reaction.

Well, in a sense it can work like that if you install/download the encryption files through Steam and then put Steam in offline mode. Then you're basically just playing an offline game. :)

I didn't think it worked like that... oh well I'll have to bite the bullet for it I guess. Just make sure it doesn't load every time I switch my pc on. Piece of crap *sulks*

Can't wait for the game though *smiles again* Gonna be a great day!

That wont be possible Pev. Considering how much gaming we do, being disappointed by Skyrim is inevitable. The level of complexion our brains need is nearly impossible to achieve in a sandbox game like Skyrim. The biggest problem of Elder scroll saga is that it lacks really strong characters that shine across titles. Mafia 2 had that fat bloke, Joe. GTA4 has Niko. Morrowind, oblivion? Ok i remember patrick stewart but only because he dies in the first 15minutes. The story is so impersonal, almost clinically sterile. Its the mods, with their flaws and dreams, that bring the game to life in the end. Fasten your seat belts, disappointment inbound.

Man, Peltz is waxing poetic today. Though I can't argue too strongly, I must say that Morrowind gripped me. I'm not sure why... I think it's because of how alien it felt, and how lost I felt. It's kinda like real life. Oblivion wasn't so strong, though some of the quest lines were wonderful. I'm hoping that Skyrim blows me away, but I won't cross my fingers. I will, however, buy it on release (probably) and write a thread on my game. Assuming Calculus 2 doesn't get in the way. *sigh*

BTW, I probably ought to rename the Oblivion forum to Elder Scrolls. Bring that puppy back to life.

Yea morrowind was out of this world. I must eat some of my words though, the stilt riders, i never forget those, appearing out of sandstorm these huge towering mm things :D.

Renaming the forum sounds good to me.

lol jeez Peltz, and I though Derf was jaded. :D Comparison threads are still cool since even though you may not come across many memorable characters (not in Morrowind either btw) it's all about 'your' journey...which in a world like that of the TES games can be very different for each player. I'm sure Skyrim will be a great game btw - the only reason i'm not buying it is because I'm sure I'll be able to play an even greater game in a year with all the DLC, patches and mods. At a lower price. So...

P.S. Morrowind was indeed amazing because of its alien and wonderful world. That's what was lacking in oblivion a bit. It was all very generic, but it was still a great game of course.
