Frostfall is super cool, too.  Adds a hot/cold bar.  Really makes travelling dangerous.  You have to build a camp, set up a tent, etc when it gets too cold and wait for a break in the storm.  Different armor has different heat retaining properties...its pretty great.

I'm sure someone has made a mod of Oblivion but in the Skyrim engine...
If you guys know of anything like this let me know because that would be really cool.
I loved the gameplay improvement of Skyrim like using a sword in one hand and spells in another but Oblivion was 10 times the game Skyrim was...




Yeah, but it's nowhere near done.  You can mod Oblivion out the wazoo to improve it loads, though.

WHen you mod the game do you have to create a new character for mods only?




It depends.  Some mods will screw up if you use an old save file, some won't.  Pretty cool to do a new character anyway, especially if you use this mod http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/9557 which lets you pick a different starting point than the bogus intro quest.  As a bonus, if you don't want to be the dragonborn...you don't have to!  My current guy is a sneaky thief assassin Khajit.  Doesn't make sense for him to be dragonborn, so he isn't!  You have the option of starting the main quest at any time, but you don't HAVE to participate, which makes the roleplay opportunities a lot cooler for me.

I do. I have a wood elf who's pretty much strictly an archer. Archery is bad ass in this game I'd you level it up all the way. It's a great game but I think I like oblivion better. The random encounters in skyrim can be a little cooler and the graphics and combat are obviously much better but the quests and feel of oblivion are just better to me. Plus the dungeons (my main love of Bethesda rpg's) are much deeper and better designed. Not to mention how dumbed down skyrim is. Still a great game regardless.

Opinions. Fallout or elder scrolls? People always seem to like one more than the other. Personally I like fallout a bit more

Playing stoned definitely makes the quest better IMO. Cant wait to see what they can do on the new xbox one. I just blew 500 bucks on it as a late christmas gift for yours truly.  Kinda disappointed with it sofar. Slow download times. You have to download fuckin everything.and theres like 2 games and you cant play old 360 titles.. but the graphics are nuts. And once its loaded theres no lag at all. But since theres no games I just restarted skyrim. Playing as high elf illusionist theif assassin.  Great game.

Man, thats a tough call.  Similar in so many ways, yet such absolutely different experiences.  It'd be too hard for me to pick between them.  I love the weapons in the Fallout games, but I love the face-to-face battles in TES.  I love the desolation of Fallout, but I love the beauty of TES.  I love the futuristic/sci-fi grittiness of Fallout, but I love the old-world majesty of TES.  Yeah...can't choose.

I play fallout 3 more frequently now because I'm just now starting over on it, But skyrim is awesome, I have an Argorian named Fell Darkblade which I play as an assassin, even though skyrim doesn't really have a class system.

Anybody have a really hard time with the xbox360 version glitching? It seems like every major quest line for me is fucked. For example the companions quest line is stalled as well as the Markarth forsworn quest and the dark brotherhood as well. I've even had Farkas chase me to the other side of the map all while FORCING me to talk to him :mad2: I had to go to prison to set it right. And while all of this is going on sometimes dragon skeletons fall from the sky. :shrug:

Now most of these wouldn't be a problem if I had kept any of my old saves, but I didn't. I'm thinking of just starting over even though I have quite a bit of time wrapped up in my character. Needless to say I've been getting into Oblivion, the story line has more depth than Skyrim.

I cant wait to the new one comes out for those of you who havent played Morrow Wind omg.......I promise you do not know what your missing. Its on the older platforms but as soon as you cast a spell (thats not on any of the newer ones) and start flying its on. The graphics are a bit hard to explain a bit blocky but not 2d.

Well I got it on the PC now. I'm gonna the mod the shit out of it and then start a new game with the mod "Wrymstooth" which is like a whole extra DLC professionally done so I've heard.

Should be fun a lot of fun with the new content and not having played it for so long, I haven't played Skyrim in like half a year(or more). I really need to get my controller hooked up to my PC but meh... don't feel like spending more money.

The graphics though, god damn. I'm use to playing it on the 360 and the difference is just insane. Looks great, can't wait to try some retexturing mods.

I would say PC.... because you can just get an adapter and play with the xbox controller or PS controller. I don't mind playing with keyboard/mouse though.

You can mod the shit out of PC and fix bugs that isn't fixable, not to mention Skyrim crashes more often and the loading times is horrendous on the consoles.

I've been playing it and I'm enjoying the PC version more (and I've put several hundred hours on skyrim on the 360)

One of my biggest annoyances on the 360 version was the load times were pretty bad, I just timed it and my average loadscreen was over ~23 seconds, generally almost 30.

It takes less than 5 seconds to do it on this computer. Makes it so much more enjoyable when I'm not spending 30 minutes staring at loading screens when playing for a few hours at a time.

That and I'm in love with these graphics, it is just insane to see the difference between PC and Console and I've been a big console gamer. I never thought I'd be saying I like the PC version better :lol:

My only concern is a smaller game catalogue I'm looking at the Alienware 18. What computer do you have?

I've got an ASUS 8 gig ram 64 bit OS

with an intel core i5-4570 @ 3.2 GHz and about ~750 gigs of memory

I run the game on the highest setting possible and have modded enhanced graphics... it looks spectacular.

I don't even have a top of the line computer... I got this for about 750 bucks.

The game runs so smooth, definitely enhanced my gameplay. Using a controller it feels like I'm playing on my console but like a HD remake with no lag/wait time.

I gushed when you said Asus sick im on a Asus Memo Pad Hd 7 I stand behind this company as much as Samsung and that is big.  Do you have a model number or link? I definitely want a I7 so hopefully I can upgrade.
