Cue 50,000 teenage boys getting stiffies over those girls playing nerd-music. Also, 500,000 views for some jack-off smashing some power chords? :puke:

Props to 'em for figuring out the tune, though.

Went ahead and bought it. Not bothered by my rig not being able to run it on top notch quality, but exiting the caves after Helgen i'm having graphical issues which detract too much from the experience:

Looks like some models or textures being oversized.
Ideas for solving this?

The first video Dumb posted, they are shit at playing those instruments. He might aswell have posted some autotune shit.

Didn't bother with the 2nd video, cause it's probably just as shit if not even worse.

Typical of Dumb.

It's funny because it's true. I always end up selling everything in my inventory for a grand total of something like 2 GP and can only buy a quiver of arrows with it in games like Skyrim.

Some poisons can stack, IE: 5x with a potion to slow movement might knock an opponent out for ten seconds then you can just thrash him while he sleeps. Good for the unexpected ogre, etc.

Layout made for XBOX controller eh.. I seem to recall the bindings for Oblivion being clunky to a degree simply due to their number.

k now that I know what I'm doing, is there a list somewhere online that tells you which ones stack and what not? apparently the active effects list is kind of clunky and not that easy to follow.

Press the holster button (R on PC) and you will. It doesn't holster it if you have an arrow drawn.



Yeah, it does.

the physics they implemented in this game are pretty impressive. I was on top of a hill and I decided to dump out a bunch of potatoes and other oddly shaped vegetables, and the way they interacted with the subtle changes in elevation and their own shape as they were rushing down the slope was impressive.... they would wobble down, gain or lose speed accordingly. The other day, I was cave shopping, and there was a plate with 2 gem stones in it. as i picked one up, the other one shifted to one side of the plate which caused the plate to lift up at the opposite side.

It's shit like this that creates immersion, and elevates the experience on a diff. level. Skyrim is steadily creeping up in the poles of my all time favorites. I think it's in 3rd place with a possibility of being elevated to 2nd. The first spot is kind of locked in for life by Quake 3...serious face.

Would Skyrim's position in your list elevate more if you removed a gem stone from it?

No shit, Sherlock, I'm not blind.
What I mean is that the nonsense you spewed out in that other post makes no sense from a musical point of view.
You really have no idea what you are talking about yet you have a very strong and negative opinion about it. That is a really poor trait of character. And you seem to make a habit out of this.

On a serious note, how well does going the ninja route work in Skyrim? I found in Oblivion and other similar games that whenever I play as a thief type character, I always end up getting fucked in the ass during scripted fights where the enemy knows where I am and I'm in an enclosed area. :down:
