should Daggerfall be playable in an 'extras' menu?

Post » Wed Mar 30, 2011 9:06 am

Lots of other games have extras menu ie concept art, dev interviews etc..

I think it would be awesome if they made Daggerfall playable in the options menu.

what are you thoughts on this?

I know it's an old game and all, but I don't want to hear there wasn't enough space for the voice acting if they have room for an entire extra game...
Plus didn't they already give us Daggerfall as a free download???

That would be awesome! I know they could do it for the PC but would it work for the 360 and PS3?

Umm dude, you can download Daggerfall and Arena for FREE. You just need a DOS emulator to play it. My friend uses DOSBox.

No, that takes up disc space that can be utilized in other ways.

It'd take too much time to make a console version...

Daggerfall is already a free download, and the disk space and dev time could be used for stuff that's actually related to Skyrim.

Hell to the no. :thumbsdown:

That Mind blowing game exists because of Daggerfall?







anyway no you can get both games for free, if you want it get it. to put in on Skyrim would be wasted Breath to folks...like the one quoted for instance.

... Ooookay so I need to play every game of a serie to be able to enjoy the last one? Playing Daggerfall after Skyrim would be such a step back that nobody would enjoy it.

Yes, that was exactly my point. It would just be a waste of time for the devs.

It's not like Daggerfall is exactly hardware intensive. You don't need a gaming system to play it.

But not free, since both games were PC-only and would have to be ported to the consoles which takes developer time and work, see.

Daggerfall is a PC game. That's just the way it is. Besides, you're using a computer right now, no?

You're posting from a computer aren't you? :P

DOSBox can be run on just about any computer. Plus, the way the controls for Arena and Daggerfall are set up, it would control horribly on a console. About the only downside is that Daggerfall is a bit of a pain to install through DOSbox, but it runs perfectly fine once you do.

Plus, even if Bethesda did try to put it up for free, Microsoft and Sony would almost certainly force them to charge for it. Usually the only games that are free on XBL and PSN are demos and very simple indie games.
