How You will spend the TESV release day?

Post » Fri May 13, 2011 2:54 pm

Until a date is announced for the release, I won't know what my plans are. If it's a midsummer release I probably won't be able to afford it right away, summers are a bad time for me, financially.

The day before it's release i'll be browsing the forums like crazy and I'll be freaking out and stocking up. :D
The day it comes out, well lets just say I will not be able to think about anything but playing it.
If I have school the next day, I'll tell my mom I'm sick :ninja:
And if it svcks :cold: :sad:
If it's good :shocking:
And to the people who complain it's not Morrowind- :facepalm:

True, by the time TES V comes out Morrowind will be like Daggerfall is to us...Basically no one really complains about Morrowind anymore and they don't say that Oblivion wasn't like Daggerfall...We say Oblivion wasn't like Morrowind. Likewise when TES V is announced/released people will be complaining that it's not like Oblivion, instead of Morrowind.

Sad, but true.

im going to pre-order it from gamestop and most likely be at there when they release it at midnight, then ill rush home and play it non stop for as long as i can. like i do with all my games that i pre-order, which is few, because i only pre-order games that i absolutely must have.

EDIT: and no matter what i will always compare it to morrowind, not oblivion, because so far nothing has surpassed morrowind in my opinion.

Your probably right, the forums will be flodded with people who started with Obivion, loved it, and won't want anything different.

I was the same way with Morrowind, when Oblivion came out.

I for one however will be glad if its not like Oblivion.

Well said.

I'm with ya! :foodndrink:

But the majority of people will still probably be complaining that it's not like Oblivion, instead of Morrowind.

With really little sleep and great anxiety to the point of punching things to vent out frustracion and energy. At that point be filled up with caffeine and maybe even camp in front of Target though laws will likely prevent that and proceed to be among the first to get the game in my area. While on the drive home and if I'm driving (hopefully) near the speed limit gigging like a madman. Get into my apartment or dorm room at collage and read the manual cover to cover and then insert the disc.

And finally have gaming nirvana; hopefully.

I'll take the day off work, enlist my girlfriend as a servant for the day. Brew some nice beer a few weeks before the event, stock the fridge up with munchables and enjoy the game on my new telly and surround sound system. Hopefully it won't be released in summer here (Australia, go figure), because I get weirdly guilty if it's a nice day and I don't go out or do anything constructive. Although generally 'constructive' to me is down the beach or drinking some beers with my mates.

It's odd that we are planning our release days when the game is more than likely a year / year 1/2 away :celebration:

Until a release date is out, yes, you can! I just had a horrible thought... imagine if the game is released on your partners birthday... or immediate family... where you would have to spend the day or entire evening not playing TES V. That would sting.

Who says you couldn't spend the whole day playing TES V in one of those situations? :shifty:

I'd be shot. No family stuff to worry about (they're all in England), but the missus would kill me for sure. Just don't release in November please :D

Just tell her that there's something very important to which you must attend. Then go out, buy TES V, and play it at a friend's house all day. :D

I'll buy it and stay very very far away from these forums(People will break so many rules that not even 20000000 moderators could manage one section of the forum).

I'll sleep to the far mid-day, and then wait for a couple of months that it is released in Finland. Then I'll flag my ship and go pirateying... Erhm I mean I'll acquire it by me' cutlass! No, that didn't sound right... Lets just say that I will borrow it.

Ah. What a glorious day it will be, if its good.

The way it would work for me is probably the same way the release for Modern Warfare 2 came out, pre-order. I'll more than likely pre-order it with the same level of enthusiasm as I did with MW2, and hope for the best. ( for those that hate mw2, Im in the same boat. )

But they way it will work after pre-ordering is waiting patiently trying to get things in " real " life in order that way the outside world doesnt bother me. Before its relase, since Im going to assume there will be midnight releases me and a few of my buds will probably car pool to go and get it. We'll go to a mall or go buy very redundant games at a wanna be Gamestop to kill some time. I will blow money on just about everything there is to blow money on, we'll get some food, then go wait in line. I will turn off my cell phone and put on my iPod and sit ignoring everyone!

When my number is called, I will go to the counter and retrieve the GameThatShallNotBeNamed and leave with my friends. We will get into the car, go to a gas station, get gas, and a few packs of smokes to last the drive home and the next few days. After that we will go to a better store to get essentials. I will buy at least 50 bucks worth of Spike, NOS, Rockstar and Bawls energy drinks.

We will leave town and attempt to drive home without losing our mind. On the way, we get out and punch every baby that we see that way we dont lose our sanity from excitement.

I'll get dropped off at home, put my key in the door and turn it. I will walk in, put the cat outside, turn my phone back on, check for texts/calls, and head to, what is now affectionately known to all who know me as, The Room. I will turn the lights on, the tv and my Xbox on. I will give the game manual a good skim, ( will do that later when Im making dinner or getting a snack anyways. ) and get ready. I bring everything that I NEED into the room. I put on my astro headset to drown EVERYTHING else out.

Exactly one week after release, my neighbor notices I havent left for anything, mowed the lawn, did anything outside the house, so he calls the cops/EMTs to check up on me.

They walk in the house after 10 minutes of waiting outside. They approach The Room that has a note reading, " DO NOT ENTER UNLESS EMERGENCY! " They enter anyways. They look around and see everything on, cigerrete butts all over the place, empty energy drink cans, and a note on the far wall that reads" TES V WAS fKn EPiC!!!!!!" They then see me dead on the floor from severe heart problems from too much adrenaline, likely caused by overdose of energy drinks, exhaustion, and cigerretes.

SOUNDS LIKE A HELLUVA DAY TO ME!!! Hhahahahahaha
