The Raven Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Im off to trade batman for it on friday. I cant get over the sheer size of the game. If its half as good as fallout 3 winter will be a fun time. Anyone else getting it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I hope it's a lot better than Oblivion. It does look very very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

l33wgn Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I was going to treat myself to this after Christmas got my hands full with Forza battlefield and cod at the moment! Post up how good it is on Friday and I will probably find myself in the car on my way to game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_Mac Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Downloading now - likewise hope it was better than Oblivion - the characterisation and voice acting certainly seems better thankfully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I'm hinting heavily to the Mrs about this as a christmas pressie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Doom Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I've been waiting ages for this! I've got it pre-ordered but if it doesn't turn up on Friday I think I'll have to rent it so I can get started! I'm hoping it's going to be epic!

The Raven Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Righty logged a few hours on this today It is stunning. I did the first 2 main quest missons then got way way way sidetracked when i found a group of rather cool people that give a VERY cool power. Had a fight in a bar for cash and helped a nice lady out That aside i have been killing anything that comes my way without much hassle, that said i wanted to take a look at one of the giants that was herding the mammoths about, they didnt like that one bit and after shouting something at me knocked me 50 foot in the air killing me with one hit. I now give them a wide birth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Ok this game is worth the money alone for the giants, one just lanched a fox. I couldnt find the body, i dont know if it ever came down........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oso_mmhvm-Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 my son has this on his christmas list so i will have to wait to get a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Doom Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 The giants are crazy! Harder to kill than the dragons. The only way I've found to kill them is to hide up on a ledge or rock where they can't reach you & then pick them off with arrows. Takes a while though! Really enjoying the game so far!

Rookey Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I put some time into this last night... very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Plethora Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Got this on the PC and played about 3 hours so far, great graphics and fun to play. The only thing that niggles me though is after playing online games so much is how isolated it feels, it's screaming out for some form of multiplayer element / co-op. This lil guy kept following me around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Is this anything like Fable. I like the look of it but I dot like multiplayer/online games as I get demolished by rude 5 year olds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookey Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Hey man, it's not like an online crazy "5 year old gonna beat yo' ass" type of game... It's more like fable, but bigger. You can get a job, forge stuff, choose race, level-up etc etc... I've just thought... Does the fact that I enjoy this make me a bit of a "geek"??!

The Raven Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 Yes it does. Matt. If there is one person on this forum who would love this game its you mate. Think Lord of the rings vs Fallout 3, Its so far up your ally its in your garage Get it get it now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathanc Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Awesome, awesome game. I like how you are free to explore and not tied down to a preset route. Spent hours wondering and killing stuff lol. It's a bit buggy sometimes but its amazing the stuff you can do lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 Ok. My new found "skill" is just great the terror from the silver hand as i ran into the camp! the blood and guts as i ripped them up! Then i brought a horse, they dont like going down water falls, then i got maimed by a sabre cat. Happy days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I loved the look of oblivion, in fact i spent more time wondering about than playing the game,got bored in the end as i could never quite get to grips with the control/menu system, hopefully Skyrim will be a little more like Fallout in its control?? and if its graphics are better than Oblivion i will be happy.

The Raven Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 Another few hours logged, More awesomeness happens, the undead have been on the sharp end of my undead killing type sword! I by pure chance did two missons on one hit. And happened upon a cool looking set up of dark wizards, i was cooked shortly there after. Still have not done another one of the main missons. Nor have i seen a dragon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
