A call for a 6 month delay : V - Skyrim

And I don't get that... Do people really know nothing about horses?

Yep. People don't know about a lot of things.

Doesn't stop them from complaining about them.

Hey let's just cancel Skyrim and move on to the next TES, then no one can complain about anything! :facepalm:

I would add armor/weapon degradation.

The first game I play with auto health regeneration is The Witcher. Health will not regen during a fight (There is a potion for that) but it will regen when you are out of a fight without using a potion. I have no problems with health regen in Skyrim if its done right. I think it will be the same as in The Witcher. Slow regen.

Do you want us to die from a heart attack, or depression, TC ?

Its reasonable to demand a 6 mounth delay of a game because he disagrees with a few design changes? :confused:
I happen to like most design decissions ive seen so far and yes he is complaining about design deccissions which would not be affected be his preposed delay, the fact is this is what the dev team wants no amount of a delay will change that.

Yes, it is. The game lacks vital features, and truly, no one can really tell with certainty that those are design choices or just them removing features to rush the game. We don't really know if the dev team got all that they wanted in. I highly doubt it, as that is most usually not the case for most games. With so many features being chopped off the game and they going back on previous decisions about the game, such as adding locational damage, it really looks like things are being rushed here.

I can hardly believe the people who go around trying to justify everything Bethesda does as a great thing. Very obviously a lot was lost here, and I know people will attack me for this, but it only seems like they don't want the illusion of a perfect game to fall apart and thus are unable to see any flaws on it. I reckon there are great additions, I personally am very excited about the new NPC AI, but too much has been removed for the game to feel complete for me. I personally would rather wait a whole year to get a polished, less polemic Skyrim than going for what we have now.

Or you can just wait six months to buy the game. Not a bad idea if you think about it. First, it'll be less buggy due to several patches being released during that time. Second, it won't cost as much.

I want to Skyrim release on time to see if the pre-order crowd where svckers all along for paying that kind of money for a barely working product.

I threw up a little when I read the OP. General concept, grammar, and syntax; it was a trifecta of terrible.

A lot of these mistakes can easily be fixed by modders, but it's disappointing that they assigned a release date that they're keen to stick to, because now they're rushing to get things finished. Which means we get it sooner, but could still compromise its integrity (think Kotor 2!).

Don't know which cereal box you get your info out of but they aren't rushing to get it finished. The game has had 3+ years of development; they're keen to stick to the date because that is the date they know they can release the game by. At this point it's just polishing and getting ready to go gold.
