Then I had to start tweaking, searching the internet, downloading .dll files and adding new parameters in the SkyrimPrefs.txt and Skyrim.txt file just to get the game running better than 20fps and to top all that I had to MANUALLY give CPU priority for the game to even utilize more than 20% of my CPU.
THEN....I had to start installing third-party programs to force v-sync off and again tweaking the game files just so that my mouse movement in the game would be just...just a tiny bit playable.
First patch came and I was exited. Found out that it broke more than it fixed and it replaced the old TESV.exe with something that forces the game to just use at most 2GB of RAM, causing severe crashes. The game also became extremely unstable in other regards. Enemies started to teleport and spawn in random places.
Patch number two comes, I'm completely horrified. I fire up the game and same thing. TESV.exe is forced to use only 2GB of RAM at max, game crashes on launch. I manage to fix that, the game is completely unplayable. Mouse movement is completely messed up, keybindings won't change, menus are sluggish once again dragons flying backwards, resistances broken, crashes every 2 minutes, missing sounds....the list goes on.
The last game I will ever buy from Bethesda. I put up with this exact same stuff with Fallout 3, Fallout 3:NV, Oblivion and now with Skyrim. Enough is enough.
You win, I won't play your game. Too bad I was really liking the Skyrim story. There is a limit to what a man can take to play a game he likes, I've met mine
