I'm going sneak, archery, light armor and some destruction, full on combat. The blocking tree seems awesome too, but that doesn't fit my character. Maybe my 2nd char if i ever start one.

Question:
The game's difficulty levels are Novice, Apprentice, Adept, Expert, Master right? So, naturally - "normal / default" is Adept?
Some ice worf at the beginning of the game just kicked my ass. Whereas Oblivion was mindlessly easy. Maybe I have it on hard mode or something?

I have just over six hours logged into the game as of this moment (PC version), I actually haven't come across a single bug at all. However, the game has flat-out crashed on me twice, luckily the PC version comes equipped with quick-saving, so I'm F5'ing every five minutes
If you want the abridged review from earlier comments in the thread; the PS3 version is great and runs perfectly fine, and apparently actually looks better than the 360 version in certain areas.

Conjuring weapons is pretty cool this time. I hated those ugly daedric weapons that lasted about 5 seconds. I'm using my ghost sword all the time now.

There's the console impressions thread (linked in the OP), but that one's kind of hard to navigate, too. I'll do something about these questions.AgentOtaku said:
Anyone who feels up to it, PC and console players alike, send me your impressions through a PM. When I've got enough, I'll put 'em in a post and link 'em in the OP.

Kinda tempted to trade Arkham City for this (for some reason I'm just not enjoying it as much as Asylum, which I adored...I'm playing it, sometimes I'm loving it but there's a curious sense that I'm just going through the motions more than I'd like there to be as it is clearly an excellent game). I know that this isn't going to be the least partial crowd, but would that be worthwhile? I may then go back to Arkham after Christmas, perhaps it's just come a bit too soon for me to fully appreciate it....
Word of warning to my European friends, well at least the ones from France and Germany: The German release seems to be in French and German. No English on the disc at all. So If like me you would have preferred to play it in English you should buy it from the UK. Have not tested out if it als includes Italien or Spanish. Would really suck if they excluded English for all of us mainlanders...
As far as I can tell I like both equally. Skyrim's definitely worth your time (but then I thought the same about Arkham City). And if you liked the smaller area of Asylum over the larger world of City, it may be a bit strange to want the very large open world.TheDrowningMan said:
played about 30 minutes before I had to run into work, so I'm still in the tutorial.
I liked the opening bit. a bit more interesting than the typical opening in a dark dungeon. It's still too early to say anything about the whole experience but I've enjoyed the bit I played and it certainly feels familiar to Oblivion and Fallout - the animations, the voices - but slightly more refined.
faces are way better than before. not the bet of this gen but way better than they used to be in Oblivion.
can;t wait to get my teeth into it this weekend

Found a Dwemer ruin (
), but the entrance is covered with plants or something, and I can't hack 'em apart or burn 'em. Dunno what exactly I'm gonna need to do here, but I'll get back to it later, there's a dragon lair nearby.

I still get confused about left and right handed equipping. Left click is right hand and right click is left hand correct?

The weird thing is that in some respects Arkham City feels more boxed in that its predecessor to me. There's a weird seamless / disjointed dichotomy which is disruptive to the flow of the experience. It definitely improves over Asylum in plenty of areas, but I'm not feeling the same sense of place I did with that game.
It's peculiar, because I'm doing things that I should be loving but they're just not having the impact that I think they should - maybe I just like Arkham Asylum too much and I've got a bit of fatigue...perhaps I listened to that record one too many times and need to take a break.
Is Skyrim especially atmospheric?

Sounds like a quest-related barrier so players don't go snooping around before having the related quest.
Is the Soul Trap spell available for purchase in Whiterun or that small settlement you first come across? Wanna get crackin' on Enchanting but I must've missed it when I browsed through the vendors (not that I looked very hard, just thought of it now that I kinda need it for enchantments

PS3 version Vsynced or "Soft Vsynced" ?
It's in whiterun. The enchanter guy sells it.Drazgul said:Sounds like a quest-related barrier so players don't go snooping around before having the related quest.

I've played for 6 hours straight. Want to keep playing but it is daylight and I'm tired :-(
This game is rocking my world. 7 hours in. Absolutely brilliant. I'm at level 9 and still barely have done anything. I did kill my first dragon though.
I am anxiously awaiting the modders to get a hold of the creation kit though, because there are some MAJOR interface issues that need to be worked out. My god, the PC interface is just shit. Buying/selling is a fucking hassle, doing ANYTHING requires clicking a tiny little box, you can't press E or WASD to navigate a lot of menus. What the fuck.
