I will be my usual Nord Assassin Archer. Contradictions, awaaaaaaaay!

Nords are better as warriors, imo.

They are, I just like going against type. Big bulky guy skulking in the shadows. Basically, I'm batman. lol

I always play as Argonian. They are the most awesome creatures in the Elder Scrolls universe. I hope they are just as awesome in Skyrim.

I hope Skyrim still has the ridiculous character creation system. Probably not, but one can hope. If it's in, I'd make a Nord with a huge pink head.

EDIT:



Amazing.

Yay, rollerball Dwemer Centurions are back. Easily my favourite Morrowind enemy.

Just watched some video 'analysis' of 20 HD Argonian headshots. I am even more excited at this point.

Linkly?

Holy shit, those look amazing.

Oblivion NPCs looked somewhat similar, but the variety between them now (plus the hundreds of new voice actors) will give NPCs in Skyrim some degree of individuality.

RIGHT? So glad the bug-eyed 'lemon head' Argonians are a thing of the past. Although the lack of beast legs is sort of a bummer. I mean I know a lot of people bitched about them because it limited your armor options, but I thought they looked neat. Hopefully there will be an option to toggle them.

I like how everyone is going for the computer version and I got it for Xbox. Did I make a mistake?

It depends on if you like the feel of a controller and a couch as opposed to a keyboard, mouse and office chair.
PC editions have the advantage of installing mods and texture packs when they are made though. I'm going to go a Let's Play of it which is easier on a PC, but whatever floats your boat.

I'm getting the Xbox version too because I don't have a great gaming PC and I prefer using a controller for games.

I'll be connecting my Xbox controller to my PC to play Skyrim just because it's more of a console based game.

Actually, I think this is worthy of a double post. I GOT SKYRIM JUST BEFORE!
I get it a day earlier. But it is serioulsy amazing. I got a free 200 page booklet and a map of all of Cyrodil! I win!

If I had an Xbox, I'd still play it on my PC because I find these types of games much more enjoyable when I play them with a mouse and arrows.
Controllers are better for platformers and stuff like that.


Eeek eeek eek.... :( I wanna play Skyrim but it sucks that I can only do so after a month. Boo to all of you for early access!

I think if this laptop could handle it, I'd actually buy it on steam as well. x_x

Hot off the press.

According to Facebook freinds who bought the console version it's excellent. I ordered it from play asia so I will be able to see for myself in 5-14 days time.

I got Skyrim!

Dinosaur boobs? Whyyyy?

Is your thumb broken or something Dynamithix?

His thumb is weird like my brother's :(
But Skyrim is soo good! I'm gonna post some pictures later (after school).

Haha, no, it's always been like that. It's very bendy!

EDIT: that sounds dirtier than I thought.

My thumb is equally creepy/bendy, if not more. Weird thumb club.

Also, how did you snag it a day early?

Dear God.

Can't wait to sink into this tomorrow, Argonian master race. For anyone interested, Giant Bomb is doing a marathon of Skyrim right now, probably gonna be a bit spoilery though. Ive watched a little bit of it.

I bought it online and I got a mail on Tuesday saying that they've sent it and it came on Thursday. The store got it early I suppose.

Most games I pre-order I get a day early, Which is my pre-ordering is so good :)
