Hi there I am a 360 gamer never owned a pc but have stalked these forums moving from one thread to another. most of them with one complaint or another about us ''console'' gamers. and how we are going to ruin RPG'S etc for everyone until today i thought it was just worry mongering. but after a look on my 360 dashboard and finding the head line What do you want in SKYRIM im starting to see why so many are worried. many seem to want mountable dragons or some form of dragon age rip off my question is why? i love oblivion and even if skyrim had everything the same as it (bar story of course) i'll be buying it regardless i will edit this and put in some of the suggestions made in due time (wife's watching tv) thank you for reading.

as this may be my last post befoe x mas may i wish you all a very merry christmas and a happy new year.

That was a ramble @ above. No sense, sense you say?!

I don't understand your point?

here here!

I think he is saying that a he sees a lot of suggestions that do not fit with the spirit of TES coming from his fellow console gamers.

I'd say there is nothing to worry about. Bethesda knows what sort of game they want to make, and they won't put features in that they don't think will benefit the gameplay. The opinions of a few fans don't directly matter.

"On the Xbox dashboard there's a bulletin about Skyrim asking Xbox players what they want. There are some dumb suggestions like the ability to ride a dragon. I hope that they don't listen to Xbox players."

That's what he was trying to say. I certainly hope they make this game without console in mind.

Fixed that for ya! :thumbsup:

:cry:

Me neither?!?!

Yeah I saw this and it turned my stomach. On xbox live they had a suggestions page of what you would like to see in Skyrim. The suggestions included Kinnect face mapping and multiplayer, to name but a few terrible suggestions. If any such suggestions were ever implemented tes would be ruined. :facepalm:

It's not so much that they're console gamers so much as it is that they're... how do I put this gently? Dimwits.

Seriously though, a lot of us here make suggestions that were inspired by other games with features we find to be applicable. Some would work, some would not, for as many reasons as there are stars in the sky.

Yeah, because you have to be a genius to own a pc. :whistling:

The important thing to note is that when people talk about console gamers ruining video games, they're not talking about you, a gamer who happens to play on consoles. They're talking about the stereotype - the all too common one. The ones raised on this, or perhaps late-last generation of console, that wouldn't know a good RPG if it levelled up in their face. The sort of person who thinks a game needs multiplayer to be any good, and to whom trash talking is more an art than a scourge.

Don't take offence, it's not you people mean. Indeed, anybody capable of /understanding/ the arguments against the unwashed masses isn't who the argument is directed at. None, or very, very few of them will ever read any of the messages here.

Console gamers TEND (NOT ARE) to be younger teenagers. So they really don't know a "Good game" or a "Traditional Game". They want stupid S***.

No, you just have to be [censored] to ask for multiplayer.

I think I'd prefer to hope that they make the best game they can, by their own standards, without trying to pander to any particular sub-section of their audience - console or PC. Of course, if the best game they can make, by their own standards, is a version of Puzzle Quest set in Skyrim, then I might change my mind .

Exactly, especially on the last bit about the trash-talking. It's one of the main reasons I don't play games online.



Very true. A lot of them can't even read.



Certainly not. There's just as many dumb and annoying gamers on PC as there are on consoles. The difference is that the console gamers have a tendency to be younger, and haven't quite learned to appreciate a deeper, more meaningful experience. They generally wouldn't make mods if they could, they'd only download others.

I understand what you are saying, and I agree about the trash talking, but as a rule it is generally best not to tar everyone with the same brush. :thumbsup:

I don't think that a company who releases one game every three years is money hungry... But keep thinking whatever you want! :celebration:

while it would be cool to ride a dragon in the elder scrolls series, it just doesn't fit with in the cannon. I am not sure but I think dragons existed at one point in the mythical age of tamriel but its pretty aparent that there are NO dragons left if they ever existed.

They say they are working on a new engine but I don't believe that means that they are drasticly updating it, (improving sure, but nothing the likes of which would allow flying mounts in Skyrim)

besides, they got rid of levitation in oblivion so what makes any one think that they are going to add a substitute like dragon riding.

Actually, some of us play on consoles because we simply don't have computers capable of playing these games. It's much cheaper to get an Xbox 360 compared to the prices of gaming PCs.

This.

If you have never owned a pc, how can you be here!? OMG

It would not be cool to ride a dragon in TES. That's just plain stupid. And we don't know for sure if dragons still exist. But assuming that in the trailer, there was a massive DRAGON statue breathing stone fire...

We don't know anything about the engine.

They didn't have levitation in Oblivion because the cities were closed cells which had to be loaded on their own, while that was not the case with Morrowind.


On topic: I am a 15 year old console gamer. My "friend" is a 15 year old console gamer too. He wants the next TES game to have a zombie horde overrun Skyrim and the dragons battling them. I don't.
