The PC version, while some of the UI is very console based, has far better loading times than the Xbox.

About the menu UI thing, people are reporting mixed things. Some people say that they can use the mouse completely, some say only for selection, others say not at all- may be a bug that needs fixing? Explains the different reviews of it though.

Also, on giantbomb.com/live Greg Kasavin of Gamespot fame is running a marathon until midnight...tuned in earlier and he plays pretty decently, and I love his commentary. I liked him as a journalist on Gamespot and liked his Oblivion marathon, so this is pretty much the best gameplay stream I've found.

edit- high site traffic, tune into justin.tv/giantbomb instead if you can't connect to the URL above.

There is a huge modding scene for Oblivion and there probably will be one for Skyrim too. If you buy the game for PC now it will probably play the same as on PS3. If you replay it again in a year or two you will have the option to tailor the game exactly as you want it and even add more content for free.

Any info, links, anything to PC problems/workarounds would be greatly appreciated. It's coming out soon, and it will be what it will be- I just want to be prepared as I can.

This is a DirectLink to the PC forum on Bethesda:

49 critic reviews up on metacritics and not a single score below 90/100, I don't hold critic reviews in too high value these days but that does say something.


yeah, bethesda as always spent a lot of money on reviewers. some quite obvious flaws arent even mentioned in most reviews.

proof?


obviously oblivion? it was a buggy piece of level scaled shit with a horribly generic world and bad combat/writing/voice acting (pretty much everything important in an rpg).
it got "perfect game 11/10 game of the year every year" reviews when it came out, then a couple of months later all the reviewers do a retrospective and say yeah you know its not so perfect, actually some of it is quite shitty.

similarly for fallout 3.

i mean their games are so badly compromised in certain aspects (and consistently) and they always get great marks, while the slightest flaw on any other producers RPG (apart from bioware) warrants a 7/10 mark.


Your opinion on ratings != proof.


i thought it was universal opinion that oblivion was a pretty bad rpg, and a passable hiking simulator. i mean you even get references in skyrim previews of how bad oblivion was and how fixed compared to it skyrim is. or are you arguing that bad writing, bad animations, bad voice acting, generic worlds, nonsensical story and level scaling make for a 10/10 rpg?


Oblivion was insanely overrated by the gaming media but to be fair the first 10 hours of the game or so are fkn amazing and make you think its the best game ever...once you get beyond that you realize its really no more than an average game. How many reviewers wouldve actually gotten to that point? Thats why you dont buy games based only on reviews D:

This is the first Elder's Scrolls game I am gonna pick up, and I was just wondering this: Are there any benefits of playing 3rd person or is 1st person the way to go. Getting it on PS3 btw.

How anyone can opt for the console version of a TES game is beyond me given the dedicated and talented modding community working on it. They honestly brought Obvlivion from mediocre to superb on their own and improved Morrowind quite a bit as well.

I wouldn't worry much about the UI, modders will have an alternative PC friendly UI within a week. just as they did with Oblivion.

Not really true, while oblivion was poor in 3rd person, it was basically the only way to really play morrowind because of the attack animations. Also with fallout they moved to over the shoulder view instead of directly behind view and i haven't used 1st person in a behesda game since. It is all about what you are used to i guess, but how are you going to get the full visual effect of you hi res weapons and armor covered in blood splatter if you are in 1st person.
I play Protoss, because lets face it, who doesn't love hyper-advanced Egyptian ninja-aliens that kill people with lightsabres attached to both arms?

I've spent a good bit of time reading the PC forums. There are some arguments both ways. But, at this point I think it's obvious the hero Modding community is going to have to step up again. To do complicated things like, integrate the mouse into the menu selections, make uniform ways to confirm "yes/no" and to scale down the size of the Fonts, once again, built for someone witting 10ft from the TV.

The few posters saying it's fine give me hope, but prepare to spend about 10 minutes focusing on how to control the UI to prevent being frustrated when it comes to crunch time in combat.

Also, I've heard the Y axis has no sensitivity control. -_-

Anyone actually on the PC version yet?

... chosen one who comes to bring peace to land by destroying the current tyrant/god/dragons, but first you have to learn the power/ find the magic item that lets you destroy them. it's pretty much the most generic storyline possible, but it's in both skyrim (noh-vah-keem) and morrowind (neh-vah-reen) come on guys not that hard to just see the obvious copy paste
