SKYRIM!!!

I know there are a few gamers on here so lets talk about Elder scrolls V!!

i never really played rpg games but all the hype couldnt be ignored.

plus my powerful pc was begging for a test.

anyone playing this game??... its absolutely immense....like nothing else!!

none of my friends play it and im desperate to chat about it but also desperate not to be a massive geek and join an elder scrolls forum

usually when im at work or out somewhere im thinking about getting home and playing some guitar but the guitar has a challenger at the moment.

PLEASE!! no Spoilers!!!

Better yet, I think I'll just avoid this thread altogether lol! I just can't risk it.

I have it for the 360 but have not played it yet. I'm almost afraid to start it, all the Elder Scrolls games are pure crack! Being a veteran of Oblivion, I have high hopes for Skyrim.

i have it on PS3.
best RPG ever.
Oblivion was good the first half, then the quests were really boring and the dungeons, etc. were always the same.

I am waiting for christmas vacation so that i can play more Skyrim

There arent many game threads so im posting it here. Strangely i have more fun to WATCH somebody else play a game, than playing? Besides i stopped playing fps and stuff, and only play rts at the moment. Anyway, watch this video from 14-19 minutes, and youll have the laugh of your lifetime

Was fighting a Dragon. Two actually! Miner by the name of Pavos thinks it's a good idea to come and fight one of them with a pickaxe. Dude gets the dragon maw.
Next thing I know, a stark naked courier runs up to me with a note staring that this guy died, the Jarl took his cut and this Pavos fella left the rest to me in his will.
Skyrim is a weird place...

Yeah skyrim is a strange place, I stole something from a shop and the shop keeper appeared not to have noticed as she raised no alarm...then a day later I was rushed by some "hired thugs"..after killing them I recovered a note from one of their bodies with instructions, from said shop keeper, to teach me a lesson. I promptly returned to her shop and taught her a lesson...now I feel bad..but Ive got loads of new stuff!!! Haha.

RE: SKYRIM!!! (in reply to Stu)

skyrim is an OK game, should have gone for the pc version though

Lately Im more of a fan of shooters and getting a bit dragged back into esports and stuff... I am much better at gaming than I am at the guitar though , so I dont play too much anymore and devote most of my life to the guitar.

If anyone happens to be playing online games on the pc using steam my nickname there is milkdream

I have a few games, cs 1.6, css, mw2,mw3,BO,battlefield bad company 2, I also have battlefield 3...

I used to play unreal tournament 3 back then.

This reminds me how big of a nerd I really am...

I saw Dark Souls at a friend's house and immediately bought Demon's Souls. It's probably one of the best and most stressful games I've ever played. I've got to admit my guitar playing has suffered, but I figure I'll eventually beat the game and stop playing - the guitar will always be a part of my life.

I have a friend who's played Dark Souls 3 times through already. Apparently it's a pretty hardcore game; you die a lot. When the game's website is called preparetodie .com .... well, u get the picture lol!

It's a stressful game, from what I've seen at my friend's house. Not my cup of tea. I DO like how other players travel through your world and leave notes and things for you to read. A lot of them leave bad advice: my buddy walked into some hole in the floor and died, and I was like, "why did u do that??" lol, some guy left a note saying that hole was a short cut, aahahaa. 0wN'd!

RE: SKYRIM!!! (in reply to Stu)

Dark Souls is fantastic, and everything you read about it is true. It's a totally stressful, demoralizing and punishing game, you'll die A LOT learning what you can and cannot do. I find most games too easy, so this has been a welcome change. I never played Demon Souls and probably won't because of how much time I've wasted playing Dark Souls!! Definitely not good for guitar practice - Doit has the right idea in not even buying a game in the first place. Way too tempting to throw on a game at the end of a busy work day instead of practicing

I recently finished my first play through and just started my second. There is lots of re-playability, which I guess is a good and bad thing

The online portion can be a lot of fun as you can invade other players and vice versa - I've never been into online gaming but in this game I find it very entertaining.

I'm not buying Skyrim because it seems people are getting equally addicted to that one. I do have Zelda: Skyward Sword next in the queue, though. I've been playing Zelda games for over 20yrs, I couldn't NOT buy that one!

I just played Skyrim for the first time yesterday and I really need to second doit and say it is definitely a time killer game
the game seems very interesting but I just felt overwhelmed little bit, There's so much to do, so much to see and so many choices to make ... just so many details

many books , secrets... creating weapons and potions etc ... its just too much

but i love it

shouting a dragon to death is pretty epic..... game consumed a few days of my life then i told it to back off and grabbed my guitar again

I used to be an adventurer in skyrim like you...... but then I took an arrow to the knee
