As a PC gamer, are you satisfied with your purchase?

Post » Sat Dec 10, 2011 2:16 pm

The 2 only problems with that poll is the fact console players will kick in, and jump on the yes button until it broke. And it lacks the more or less option.
There s good parts, but there s bad parts.

IMO, this means u r NOT satisifed , which does NOT mean the game is bad.

It only means that given your expectations, whether or not influenced by the extra-hyped campaign, you want important things to be fixed that you are counting on patches or the usual guardian angel, us, the community.

I can agree with that, for sure.

I like a lot of the new stuff and directions they've taken with Skyrim, but I hate that they've taken a lot of stuff out and some of the changes in direction are just flawed. I thoroughly enjoy the game and am having absurd amounts of fun, but there are also times I have to remind myself to enjoy the game for what it is as a stand-alone game and I have to avoid comparing it to the rest of the TES series or other RPGs.

Most of my concerns, if not all, will most likely be addressed with mods. I felt similarly with Oblivion, but not as strongly, and the modding community fixed everything. I guess on that basis I will vote "no", I enjoy it but I don't consider it a finished product.

I'm more than happy with Skyrim. I await a UI mod desperately, as well as a patch and a construction kit. But I already found a http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=667.

Hell yea, this is the most enveloping single player game I've played in years. Usually only MMO's eat up my time this badly.

Edit: Keybinds are really buggy, though, especially when binding improved weapons.

I think if you had added an option like "Yes, because i trust the modders will improve a lot of things", this poll would have better reflected how the PC gamers feel.
As it is i reluctantly voted "no".

I'm a PC Gamer and feel that mods are 100% unnecessary to make this game worth the money. Mods might be a fun diversion years from now but the raw game is more than worth the price on PC at the moment.

I'm torn as to my vote. I'm happy with the gameplay, but I'm not happy with the visuals, bugs and occasional CTDs.

I think it was worth the money in terms of scale and gameplay, but as an enthusiast this game is technically very disappointing.

I love the game, so I voted yes, but I'm definitely NOT happy with the way the PC version was handled.

I'm so satisfied that i bought Oblivion again.
The interface can go eat some cooked peanuts. There are already tons of nice mods out there.

Yes, because I know what to expect from the modding community.

The UI is fairly atrocious, but not game-ruining... and I haven't really experienced any game-breaking bugs. Given the choice between paying £10 for a console version of the game, and £100 for a PC version of the game, i'd take the PC version because I know that with mods, it'll be that much better.

I have ONE issue with the UI ... the damn popup windows that ask you something and you can't use tab or e to reply. Thats about it. Even with the imperfections its the best game I ever played and I was not a fan of this serie before Skyrim.

Personally, I think all things in consideration, the PC version needed a delayed release date due to the innumerable bugs I have run into, as well as a completely botched UI. The graphical detail is certainly lacking too. I am loving the game nonetheless, however I do not believe that these are acceptable conditions for a game to be released as a full version on a particular format, and for this reason alone I am voting no.



I'm with you.

I have crashed a few times out of the blue, but I quick save often enough or have autosaves often enough that it doesn't affect me to much. Actually gives me a chance to go get a glass of water that I was unable to go grab while preoccupied with the game.

As far as UI, I find it fairly intuitive actually. Perhaps this is because I also do a lot of console gaming so I am used to my direction controlling being my menu navigation as well. The only thing that bugs me is when I mean to click on one dialog choice when talking but it was not actually the one that was highlighted the instance I clicked.

I am very pleased with my purchase.

I happy with it, just minor bugs that needed to correct. Most or almost all new games will have them no matter what, so give them time to correct them. I had only few crashes when i first got it and playing so many hours or over a week.

Completely 100% satisfied. I bought both versions, PC & 360... I've spend 80+ hours on the PC version but I have yet to crack the plastic on the 360 version. I also have Saints Row The Third, Ace Combat & Assassin's Creed Revalations sitting collecting dust while I engross myself in Skyrim.

I love this game.. glitches once in awhile but all in all I think it's outstanding and I will be playing it for a very long time.

I can't vote in a black and white poll. There should be "Yes, but... " and "No, but... " options.

Overall I am very happy, but while I have not experienced many bugs at all (I think many bugs are hardware/driver issues that are caused by, and can only be remedied by, the player and not the developer), there are some very unsatisfying elements for a premium title released at the end of 2011.

What I am annoyed with is the reaction of the "community", especially the demands for a patch to be released NOW... on the day of release.

Are PC Gamers ever satisfied? The only time a PC gamer actually likes a game is when the next game in the series comes out, then they say how much better the last game was. :celebration:

I sure am. As soon as they incorporate the fixes for the key remapping issue and the animation difficulties, I'll be beyond delirious....as in deliriously happy. :)
