Now to pretend I did not see this so I dont have to deal with months and years of waiting.
Actually just months. The trailer gives the release date at 11-11-11.
This is why I was born.
Oddly this is my #2 look forward to game...
I'm more giddy for Mass Effect 3 coming out around the same time.

While I am looking forward to the game, this teaser didn't really do all that much for me. Good to know it's coming but I want to see actual game play visuals.

Same here. I'm installing Oblivion right now, because I have 364 days to beat this game!
I'll say one thing about Skyrim:
Don't wait for the GOTY or whatever edition, because Bethesda will probably hose people like they did with the boxed PC version of Oblivion GOTY.
When the expansions were released by themselves, Knights of the Nine came with all the pay DLC, but when they released the GOTY edition, that DLC wasn't included unless you bought it off Steam. That's dirty, in my opinion.
(Plus when I bought Oblivion GOTY edition, the website was down `for maintenance' for several months so I couldn't even buy that extra DLC if I had wanted to....)

Just loaded Oblivion up a couple weeks ago myself, as I'd been putting it off, and I'm still trying to finish Daggerfall! The pressure is on.
I've never uninstalled Oblivion. I've spent 100s of hours on it and Morrowind. I play for a while then stop then come back. I have multiple characters going at once and a very highly modded game.
While I'm stoked about this game, I am worried though that Bethsada will hose everyone on it and do exactly like they did with Fallout:New Vegas..requiring you to have a Steam account and download it off the website even though you paid $50 for the cd. It seems the gaming industry really likes hosing game players lately!!!!
You can pre-order from steam, but I don't you will need steam to play it. You don't need steam to play elder scroll 4, but then again you didn't need steam to play Fallout 3 either.
From what I've read, they dropped the Games for Windows Live requirement that was talked about early on, but it is gonna be powered with steamworks (http://twitter.com/#!/ElderScrolls/status/103844894413557760). I'm on the side of Deaths Jester on this one. I realize Steam is a great service, and people love it, but when i buy a single player game, I should not have to sign up for an account with a service that I have to use to play the game. Even with the offline mode, it's still a form of DRM. I don't subscribe to the software as service model in most cases (especially with Single player, Non-MMO games).
This is the reason Diablo 3 wont get my money, but Torchlight 2 will and why I've thought about acquiring Skyrim by "other means" and then sending Bethesda a check and a note basically saying "Love the game and here's the money, but I don't want any DRM (even if it's beloved and used by millions)." I realize this is just a stubborn principled stand against the inevitable but still...
You'll get the game by "other means" and send them a check. You don't like DRMs, but they make DRMs so people won't get the games but "other means". I have to think about that one. By the way, there nothing wrong with using steam. it's a great service and there is an offline mode for you if you prefer. Also, you know the type of sales steam have during the year? Steam is more of a blessing than a burden.

The only reason I ate having to use steam is the fact that I don't have Internet at my house and the am unable to activate the game legally. Often time I'm forced to find hacks ato make things work...whereas, if they didn't require online activation I'd be more than happy to do whatever they wanted to play the game.
I won't be getting Diablo 3 or Skyrim for just those reasons. The whole idea of not being able to play where and when I want just sucks. Just imagine if FF/FFVTTR came out like that, you wouldn't be able to play them anymore without hacking the game.
I used to love Blizzard and bought about anything they put out, even collector's edition. I gave up on them after Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3
I used to love Bioware the same way. I gave up on them when EA got them with their new online requirements and the rush job on Dragon Age 2. EA with thier limited installs,bad service reps and plain attitude put me off on anything with EA on it.
I saw that people coldn't play any of Ubisoft's games, even single player mode with something like Assassin's Creed 2 without a constant net connection. Their servers went down for days once and no one could play any of their games.
And now with Skyrim, I guess I'm done with the Elder Scroll series.
I'm also ex military and this really affects us. I was following a discussion on D3 on Amazon when a military person brought up the point that it basically screws the deployed military out of playing, since you can't get a good connection when you're out at sea or based in Afganistan for instance. Some of the comments back were; "Too bad", "There's too few of you to matter", "You should have thought of that of that before you joined" and "Shouldn't you be working and not playing games?"
Way to support your military.
After watching this video at 3:03 http://www.ign.com/videos/2011/09/12/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-full-demo-part-3?objectid=93394 I am so psyched to create Thor.

Rolled over my GameStop deposit on Batman to this. Don't tell the Yuanling, he's been after me to buy this for months . . .
No discounts, no incentives, no freebies...
yet I'll probably pre-order this. I am weak.
I'm so badly tempted to call in sick tomorrow and just play all day.
It is weird when I'm actually praying for a bad shrimp in the thai food I ordered. ;)
This game is like butter. the controls are just fantastic with an xbox 360 controller on my pc. everything just works, it's really intuitive.
Playing it on the PC and the first 10 minutes where awesome! That's how you start a game!
I only have few complaints about the game.
1) I can't find where to buy the "Chameleon" or the "Feather" spells. I'd actually rather find items enchanted with the spells.
2) The horses don't seem to move as well as in Oblivion. This may be me not getting the controls right on the horse. (playing on the Xbox)
3) Some of the armor, okay a lot of the armor, is downright UGLY looking so far.
4) Biggest thing that has downright annoyed me about the game: some of the perks that I REALLY WANT require perks I really could care less about getting.

This is why games like Skyrim & Oblivion should be played on a PC. If there's something you don't like about the game, chances are there's a mod out there to change it.
Unfortunatley I got Skyrim just as I was invited for the weekend beta of The Old Republic. I managed to play a bit (up to lvl 7) when I couldn't get on the packed TOR servers. Skyrim is awesome so far. I love games with this level of detail and freedom of choice. Oblivion was fun...but this game is far more polished! :cool:
The beta weekend for TOR just ended...so Skyrim gets my full attention now.
And I agree about getting the game for pc. The modding communities for The Elder Scrolls and Fallout are huge! I can't wait to see what they come up with for Skyrim! :D
Have got to ask..is the whole game on cd for the pc or do you have to have a steam account like Fallout:New Vegas?

I would not be sure since I bought mine from Steam but with New Vegas the "script extenders" ran WITHOUT steam since it used a custom launcher, so I'm guessing Skyrim can be separated from Steam with a custom exe as well.
Loving the game... I'm playing the same "detective" style character I used in Oblivion, basically somebody more suited to solve mysteries and crimes than fight dragons, so I'm having a hard time with some battles. Still it is a very fun, very pretty game. Cant wait for the modding tools.
I admit I'm tempted by this. According to System Requirements Lab though my rig meets the minimum requirements, but not with much to spare. Is anyone running this on a lower end rig and, if so, how does it perform for you? (For reference, New Vegas runs lovely on my machine, but I think I've dropped the details levels to do so. Speaking of which, I've yet to finish that...).
Okay, I finished the Dark Brotherhood quests last night. Gonna work on the thieves quest and the mage quests later tonight.
I'm now convinced that the "Feather" spell is not in the game and has been replaced by "Fortify Stamina" which makes sense since the amount you can carry is determined by your Stamina rating.
However, the thing with not being able to find a "Chameleon" spell is bothering me somewhat. As a matter of fact, I've only found a few Illusion and Alteration spells in the game so far. [Edit] Apparently, there is NO "Chameleon" spell in the game. Here's hoping that it's part of the DLC that's been teased but not officially announced. [/EDIT] That said, I have used the Destruction spells more than I ever did in Oblivion or Morrowind.
And JeyNyce, not all of us own PCs and the games that I have bought for my Mac in the past level me very disappointed so I refuse to buy anymore games on my Mac. My Macbook couldn't handle most games, honestly. So, I am stuck with the Xbox but not entirely unhappy with that.
@Deaths Jester - If you buy the game it will install steam and download it from there, so steam is required.
@Mr. Hamrick - I'm not putting down the consoles ( I'm a 360 owner) I just like the fact that there are mods out there that you can install to make the game play even better.
I personally tend to prefer pc to console in 90% of cases just because of mods, but it's kind of to the point where my 2 year old laptop just won't cut it, no matter how good it was when I got it. Thus, I got this one for PS3 instead.
I just got this game today, and I haven't really had time to do more than crack the case on it (the timing happened to coincide with my new RvB S9 dvd coming in). I'm going to be up front and say that this is not a series I have bothered with before, but I have heard nothing but good things about it from people I know, so I decided to give it a shot. I'll express a real opinion when I actually, y'know, do shiz.
There are talks of mods on the PS3 and XBOX 360 which is a pretty huge step forward in the evolution of consoles... perhaps the main reason I'm PC only are mods. That means that you might be able to get in on some of the goodies... it has been out for less than a week and I've already seen some cool mods, but I'm doing my "clean" playthrough first.
@JeyNyce - Not saying you were putting down console gaming. (You're on my Xbox360 friends list I think). Just commenting on your statement.
That said, found out that the Chameleon spell is not in the game (or in the construction kit). Have also learned of a few "item stuck in inventory" glitches (one of them tied to main quest though I've not gotten that far yet).
Thinking I am going to restart my game but will finish the Thieves Guild first. This will the be second restart and partially for the same reason. I think I am going to stay away from ALL the guild stuff this time around initially and just stick to the main quest first. I do know a few side quests that I may do early on, though. Also, debating on playing as an Imperial (which I normally have done in the past) instead of a Breton (which I have done this time around).
I have a question for you guys that are playing.
Spoiler
How do you feel about being asked to join the imperials when it was them that tried to have you executed? Even when your name was not on the list, they still wanted to put you on the chopping block. I am strongly leaning towards joining the rebels for this reason. What about you guys?

Spoiler
I would assume that everyone is expected to join the Stormcloaks since it is the cool rebelly group but the character I'm playing is basically a "lawful evil" thief/mage. In other words he upholds the law no matter what, meaning he wont join the thieves guild but has no problem breaking into somebodies house to get proof of a crime and then murdering 'em for a bounty. Playing a "flawed" character I dont feel weird about making poor choices, for example helping out the Redguard woman in Whiterun based on my own probably incorrect analysis of the situation. In other words he is more likely to join a group that beheads people left and right for petty crimes than to join a group of rebels. I started a character who will take the opposite path too... a big tough redguard who is against the empire.

One thing I would love to see maybe in a DLC.
Spoiler
I want my werewolf companions to change into werewolves when I do, if they are my traveling companion. I noticed that they do what I do, I pull out my weapon and so do they, I sneak, and so do they. So wouldn't it make sense that if I change they should too? Maybe the coding would be to hard, I don't know, but it sure would be cool.

Lol, yeah it is isn't it?
Well this certainly sucks. I'm about 40 hours in and have been hit with unplayable frame rate drops. I'm on the ps3 and really can't play anymore. I thought it was just me until I went online and discovered almost every ps3 player is experiencing the same thing. I don't think that Xbox players are having this issue, not sure though.

I'm not sure if the PS3 can install games onto the hard drive like the 360, but they advise against it because that will cause framerates to drop and mess with the graphics.
Personally, I am hoping that the DLC will somehow further the problems with "The Talmar". I don't like these guys and the thought of getting to kill more of them would make me a happy camper.
Oh! And I want to see the Chameleon spell in the DLC. or more of the potions that turn you into looking like a ghost. Why can't you make those at an alchemy table.
And I somewhat expect the "Golden Saints" and "Dark Seducers" to be referenced and perhaps show up in the DLC. They were enemies in Morrowind and allies in Oblivion so it kinda makes sense.
Very cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z9TdDCWN7g&feature=player_embedded
I rented this game... big mistake. I really, really, really want to buy it.
Well, Bethesda's patch seemed to really fix the dropping frame rate issue on my ps3. Iv'e been playing for many hours with little drops here and there, but absolutely nothing like before. Of course, now that I typed this out, it probably will go to crap. :P Anyway, I'm a happy camper again. :thumbup:

You get to travel to Sovngarde and meet legendary heroes of old. Awesome stuff.

Behold, the power of the Dragonborn! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TR9X7trMwpY
The only thing which sucks about Skyrim is playing it on a console + SDTV. Pain. Oh the pain.
I finished the main quest line...
Spoiler
After all that it was a bit of a let down...I mean...searching for an Elder Scroll...going back in time to learn Dragonrend...trapping Odahviing in Dragonreach...then traveling to Sovngarde to team up with ancient heroes to fight the great evil dragon Alduin.
The "epic confrontation" lasted less than a minute.
The first time I faught Alduin at the Throat of the World, he was a major challenge...I was using health potions and magic healing like crazy just to fight to a standstill. The second go around...he was nothing more than another nameless dragon that I handled with ease. Ah well...the rest of the game rocks anyway. I still have a ton of stuff to do! :cool:
Well I've decided with 44 hours I've gotten enough of an "experience" out of my first play through and I'm going to start making some serious headway for the end. I feel like I should not play with any serious mods, or mod the game, until I finish it. With my other future characters I can join a bunch of guilds or whatever.
That said...
Spoiler
The dark brotherhood learned to not wake me up in the middle of the night... if I dont get my 8 hours I get cranky. "Only way you will leave this room is if somebody dies" "Ok, that would be you"
I've put a few mods in my game so far. The Dragonbone Weapons would be the only "serious mod" I put in so far(I did use the flawless diamond required option so they are very hard to make). The rest are mostly texture adjustments. New ebony armour, dragonbone/scale armour, female faces, water textures, etc.
I did do a mod to change the font because the somewhat art deco font the game has just makes very little thematic sense. More recently I swapped the blood textures and put in a modification to the graphics settings.
I really want to download or build a survival mod... After Fallout 3 (with mods) and New Vegas I really find it boring to not have to worry about sleep and starvation. Fortunately right now I'm a vampire so I have THAT need to keep track of.
It really makes me sad that there aren't more Khajiit in the game. I was looking forward to marrying a kitty cat.
So is the ps3's problems with Skyrim confirmation that the Xbox 360 is a better machine?
No, because you can't use one game that has PROBLEMS across the board, including freezing on xbox, to gauge a machine's strength. That's kind of ridiculous. :P
It does make me wonder, however, why only the ps3's issues are being widely publicized while the PC and xbox issues are being mostly downplayed. The truth of the matter is that the game is buggy and needed more testing. Period.
Then there must be a conspiracy. Every Xbox player I asked both in school and on forums, are telling me that the game runs silky smooth on their boxes.
That is interesting. And yet, if one were to do a search on skyrim issues, you'd see quite a bit of complaining from all the systems involved, including some stuff about the latest 1.3 patch. *shrugs*
Found this researching the hardware on both consoles. Interesting stuff.
PS3 has split memory architecture, which is generally used within PCs and Macs as they have split memory for GPU and CPU also. Where as Xbox 360 has a first ever odd case of unified pipelines GPU with unified memory. Here's the thing about that, Xbox 360 and PS3 both have 512MB of memory total obviously. Xbox 360 has 512MB DDR3 running at 700MHZ for the whole system. PS3 has 256MB XDR running at 3.2GHZ for the CPU, and 256MB DDR3 running at 700MHZ for GPU. GPU can also access CPU memory on the PS3, therefore reach the same level of memory the Xbox 360 can for graphics. The difference is the PS3 CPU memory can be accessed by the GPU also, which means, the memory runs extremely fast at 3.2GHZ and therefore, more pixel shaders, more pixel pipelines, and vertex shaders, and everything can be pushed out of the PS3 at a much faster speed, therefore creating more detailed graphics with more pixels on a character than an Xbox 360.

Actually, I've heard more complaints about the 1.2 patch than the 1.3 on the Xbox. There have been some issues on the Xbox but nowhere near as bad as what I have heard about on the PS3 and PC.
PC has been seamless for me, probably runs better than some older games with worse graphics.
My friend Tom had some problems crashing out after a while but that was his video card drivers.
I dunno, I dont want to speak for the whole PC community but man this game looks purty with everything maxed and it runs surprisingly smooth, maybe better than oblivion would if I re-installed it. My machine is not a beast either... more a bucket of 1 year old parts in the body of a 4 year old machine (with some old parts still in there).
What kind of a setup do you have lugaru? PC is always the better choice if your computer can handle it. My computer is old and weak.
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+
ATI Radeon 3850 512mb
SB X-fi
3 GB Ram
I would imagine my ps3, even with the problems Skyrim gives it, would perform better than my old pc.
I think our computers are pretty much identical... I'm not at home but I do remember that I have a 512mb ATI card, 4gb ram (the game only handles 2) and a similar quad core processor. Any computer with those specs can handle most games, a better video card or more ram is usually negligible. Processor and hardrive speed is mostly for load times, I think.
Honestly the only times I have serious problems with games is when they are poorly coded or really ambitious (such as Freedom Force in giant rumble room battles).
Don't get my hopes up lugaru! :o My processor is a double core though, not a quad. Not very powerful. But now you have me thinking, "maybe my old comp CAN run Skyrim."

Mid settings
I don't live in the same place as my customised PC, which still has an older, double core processor in. I actually didn't think it would work well with Skyrim. I saw it yesterday and it actually looks pretty spectacular. Apparently it slows down slightly during larger (dragon?) battles, but seemed to perform pretty well and smoothly.
Stop it guys your killing me! Problem is, if I do pick it up for the pc and my old timer rig can't run it well, I'm out of $50. What I am looking for is the same performance as the 360. I mean graphics wise and frame rate wise. Not very confident my rig could do that. My old double core processor is the bottleneck in the whole system.
The following are the official minimum requirements:
Windows 7/Vista/XP PC (32 or 64 bit)
Processor: Dual Core 2.0GHz or equivalent processor
2GB System RAM
6GB free HDD Space
Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512 MB of RAM
DirectX compatible sound card
Internet access for Steam activation
And the recommended requirements:
Windows 7/Vista/XP PC (32 or 64 bit)
Processor: Quad-core Intel or AMD CPU
4GB System RAM
6GB free HDD space
DirectX 9.0c compatible NVIDIA or AMD ATI video card with 1GB of RAM (Nvidia GeForce GTX 260 or higher; ATI Radeon 4890 or higher).
DirectX compatible sound card
Internet access for Steam activation
Well the verdict is in. The ps3 is more powerful than my pc. My buddy dropped by and installed his copy of Skyrim on my pc just to see. The game automatically put the settings on medium. Graphically it looked about the same as it does on my ps3. However, only 10 minutes into it, I was experiencing massive frame rate drops. Oh well, at least now I know.
PC version has been wonderful for me and the reason I haven't been around. I did upgrade. I always upgrade to a new PC for the current Elder Scrolls game. I just wish the creation kit would come out. Even without it TES nexus has over 3000 mods already.
