Those pics are beautiful, your trolling. Also, area around Whiterun is suppose to be flat and bare, it's a TUNDRA. :D


You missed the point by a country mile my friend.

Some people need to learn to read a full post before commenting lol.

Clearly the newspapers are right about a decline in comprehension........

Personally I think the game looks stunning. Of course if you stop and zoom in on walls etc the textures are crap, but when you're actually playing the game and you cant see this, so why would it matter?

Hey everyone, any directions on how to install these?


Install what mate?

Meh, reverse troll.


Maybe as a hook, but seeing as i'm trying to help people with my configs, i'm hardly a troll am I?

1 get some glases 2 hat stretch of land with nothing on it i have been playing 70 hours aint seen that part lol good find and 3 the graphics are top notch for console except for character models / faces and who cares when the fx are so good also your pcs svcks spend 4 grand on one then you get good fx here is what top notch games looked like in early 2000 http://tiny.cc/e0ylu lmao


1. Right back at you
2. The patch of ground was to show draw distance. Loads pretty much to the horizon.
3. My pc really doesn't svck.

You have to admit fellow forumers, the textures on the ground, the pixelated shadow and snow, and the texture of the ground in some placs is shockingly bad and takes you out of the game. If there weren't valid complaints then you guys wouldn't have to be here to beat down and oppress all who voice them :confused:


But when you actually play, and dont stop and stare at the ground, they look fantastic.

Agreed that shadows are annoying though. Almost managed to smooth it with my config, still not perfect though.

OPer... your PSOne graphics comment is a phenomenon known as http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/hyperbole.


No, no, my good man; I meant it literally.........

Not 1995 it's more like 2002, the textures are the same resolution as morrowind and the shadows are worse than what they showed in Oblivion E3 (before xbox ruined it).

Your crashing issues may not be with the game. I'm 20 hours into the game with no crashes. Graphics are not terrible either. I'm running them on ultra high settings. Though, gameplay is better than graphics. Hell, as long as the game was good I'd play a 2d scroller. But thats just me.

The environment, the world itself looks great, definitely.

Your joke wasn't entirely wrong about some things though. The shadows look terrible, even with shadows set to Ultra they are big blocky messes. The armors don't look near as bad as the shadows but the style they went with it is just screaming for cloth physics, or at the very least to have flowing/dangling parts rigged to the skeleton to move. Worst of all though the hairs look atrocious. These three things in particular don't look all that different from how they would have looked in 1995. :tongue:

If you honestly believe that graphics are not important to your enjoyment of the game, I suggest you stop playing video games and try to find a D&D group in your area.


Just pointing out the fallacy in your argument, if people cared about graphics as much as gameplay then you wouldn't have millions of people play WoW or Minecraft. Then you got the massively competitive games in e-sports such as CS, LoL and Starcraft 2 hardly graphical powerhouses as say BF3 but they are lauded of having massively better gameplay that makes it competitive.

I thought you were serious for a second and I was about to either laugh or cry at your hopelessness. All those pictures you provided were damn good.

Anyways I play on console and the game still looks amazing, I haven't noticed ANY texture issues. I don't know why people keep complaining, they act as if it's never anywhere close to being good enough for them

You're comparing this: http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/5319/2011112000009.jpg

To this: http://www.plughead.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Morrowind11.jpg

I think not.

Over hundred hours in and the game hasn't crashed once! Also I was quite happy how well it runs on my old geforce 9800gtx+.

You kidding me right? I still play games like GRAN STREAM SAGA, which by the way has the crappiest graphics of all time, but the story and gamplay is incredibly addicting. Games of Yesterday always gonna have a place in my heart and I'm always gonna go back to them, no matter how visually unappealing they are when compared to games where 85% of the DVD space is WASTED on graphics.

Is this a joke? Have you even played a ps1 game before... or any game from before 2000, for that matter?

Edit: Alright I see you were(that's what I get for not reading the entire thing lol). But yeah I don't know why people are complaining about the graphics; they really are one of Skyrims strong points.

Very constructive and to the point.


You're silly OP, I like how you expose major problems on the forum. I find it hard to believe some people actually think it looks like Morrowind but hey, I guess if that's your opinion :shrug:

Wow, if this thread has done nothing else, it has repeatedly proved that people on this forum don't read threads, let alone posts, before responding... and even when they have they demonstrate a lack of reading comprehension skills.

IDK what game your playing but it can't be Skyrim. In Reality cities in one nation do not look all that far off from each other. I don't know why people think all of the towns should look different. For example most buildings in major American cities are made of brick or Concrete. Also Graphics aren't everything.

Really looks like a PS1 game huh?
