My Kids like it! I'm enjoying SWTOR at the moment instead.
Were you a Star Wars guy before you played it? I was never a huge fan of the series, but the game seems fun. Recommended for anyone?Quote:

- lvl 11 Breton warrior/conjurer/alterer (this time I decided to make the game more challenging by not using +% dmg increase and +% smithing equipment, cutting my health per lvl gain by 25% via player.modav health command, relying solely on a single source of elemental resistance per type (i.e. no more stacking) and using a mod which lowers both the xp gain and the level cap (meaning, less perks and overall more trouble cleaning falmer/dwemer/vampire dungeons by virtue of being underleveled))
BethSoft guys tend to make their games fairly easy and allow them to be broken by combining certain skillsets which, in turn, forces one to gimp oneself either via mods or self-control and that, in my opinion, is not conducive to challenging and enjoyable gameplay. All said things aside, I'm loving the game.
Wow. I don't feel so bad about making the game easier with extreme archery skills, now. It was definitely the case with Fallout 3 and Oblivion that once you acquired some good skills, armor, and weapons, most things were fairly easy. The nice thing about archery is that you still run into situations where multiple enemies close in on you and you have to figure something out. The bad thing is that usually just involves healing and continuing to shoot.Quote:

Not sure what race I'm going to choose, but I'll probably stick with the usual lone samurai class I tend to make for Bethesda's games (ie speed, stealth, melee). Then again, it looks like they've re-written the book with this one, so I might go in a totally different direction. Like I said though, looking forward to it, and using all willpower at my disposal to keep the shrinkwrap on it.
Tried it and failed miserably. It distorts time perception and any sense of real life obligations.Quote:

Games here in Aus are far more expensive than in USA etc and I wasn't going to pay full price on it.
I'm excited!
OK, I succumbed to the peer pressure and bought Skyrim last night. I plan to give it a run this afternoon.
Are you guys still having a good time with it?
I'm waiting for the Creation Kit and the editing applications to "fix" the game myself before proceeding with the proper playthrough I want. As dumb as it may sound, even after ~150+ hours across two characters, I still haven't finished the game.
