  • Spiky, not Siegfried




    I went into a tavern and was sick of getting encumbered all the time so I dropped a shitload of crap on the ground


    People in the tavern suddenly rushed to the spots where I had dropped the items and were literally beating the shit out of each other to get as most items as possible



    I cannot express how I must have looked like in real life but this is one of the most amazing moments in my 15 years of gaming.

    The game ARENA basically spoilled all other RPGs for me - we then had Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion and now Skyrim.


    I was going to wait as I was fed up about reading all the fanboys giving the game 10/10 - what a binch of losers I thought - get a life you sad gits.


    Then I could not wait any longer - got it on steam - downloaded it - played it - now I can't think about anything else - not even hot ladies or tasty kebabs - not even football -


    It took a while to get used to the new interface - but I had the same problem each time the series moved on -


    lots of good things I can say - best thing so far for me is that all the dungeons seem totally different - been to lots of random ones and it is like the devs took a lot of care making each one unique -


    In oblivion - all the dungeons had that standard hi Elven/ Roman look - nearly all of them.


    Looking forward to some quality mods and DLCs coming up


    Since Arena came onto the scene - all other RPGs are fillers - taking about Mass Effect and Dragon Age here - none of them compare to my true love -

  • after Cf (best of all time) the elder scrolls and Final fantasy series are the best.
    I play a few hours and its awsome, but dont have much free time... even so its worth every penny.

  • Arrrgggg... This game is a black hole for all my time.

  • Wow...you guys description, the reviews I've seen (very nice Azadur btw) and trailers have me trying to figure out how I can buy a copy....here's to hoping somehow the holiday season is nice to me^^ If nothing else, I'll pay it like I did Daggerfall.....about 3 years late. This game looks like a blast!!



    Edit....looked again at pc requirements....yikes, maybe I could play with lowest detail settings

    I roam space in search of adventure and treasure.

    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.

  • the world Map is gigantic. it took me 2 hours to climb a mountain and check every marker.
    nice pic spiky. But i have a ghost horse. and i have a good lol when i saw a ghostrider without head passing me while i was climbing the mountain

  • Lots of negative comments I have read how the game is a simple console port - meaning the developers did not take full advantage of the PCs greater powers on graphics.


    The download from steam was only 5 GBs or something - very small compared to other recent blockbusters.


    I think this means the game can both be run well on hi and lo spec pcs - my pc is certainly on the (very) low spec side and run ok in 800x600 with quite a few features turned off.


    The graphics are ok - it takes a while to appreciate them - but these Elder Scrolls games are more about immersion and the world - I never to the main quest actually - just explore - never about the graphics - infact I think Oblivion had better eye candy
