there is a thread in Community discussions.

I find the title of this thread offensive to all things grammar.

offensive how ?

Is there though? I've only seen Xbox gamertags thread, but I never paid much attention, so I could have missed it.

In any case, you can put your Skype and PSN tag in your profile and signature. If you stick around, you'll make some friends who will play with you. Alternatively, you can follow Michael's advice and look for an appropriate thread in CD.

I thought the thread was for both consoles and PC.

Why would you talk to other people while playing Skyrim?

Why would anybody? I get on to avoid the stresses of life, the last thing I want to talk to you people...

The whole reason I play skyrim is to AVOID other human beings. Human beings are a nuisance, give you problems, and annoy you.

But it's not really a joke, it's the honest truth. I don't want other people in my games.

I added it in just in case some odd individual would get offended.

I certainly do understand why someone would not want to do this. I myself prefer to play my single-player games mainly by myself. But I think it can be fun, at the right time, with the right person, to share the experience.

I use Skype to "play with" another person from these forums, Pseron Wyrd. We live on opposite coasts of the US and we schedule times to play and share our experiences via instant messaging. Both of us have set up old second computers next to our gaming computers. We use these second computers to send instant messages to each other all day (Pseron calls it our "hot line"). And it seemed natural to use this always-on connection when we game as well. We do the same quests or clear out the same dungeons and message each other back and forth about our experiences.

We don't do this when we are doing serious gaming. It's just something we do only now and then, for fun. And it is fun, at least to me. It is sometimes nice to be able to share the gaming experience with a close friend. I like that feeling. We don't get to see each other in person very often. We share a common love of the Elder Scrolls so it seems natural to us to message each other while we are actually playing an Elder Scrolls game. We do this on Saturday nights, usually. The rest of the week is reserved for serious gaming.
