holy that's a big list.... what.... look in the top right hand corner.... page 1 of 50?!?!??!?!?!?! :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh:


Hah, that is slight exaggeration, but, well, you get the point. That list alone would infuriate me to no end, going through every option every time I want to make a new character. It actually reminds me of those annoying DLC popups, where you suddenly find letters from your relatives giving you free homes. Is it too much to ask for those things to appear in rumors like any other place in the game instead of finding immersion-breaking gifts in a dungeon where you don't rightly belong? :P

The second I entered this thread, I was literally thinking of posting this word for word.

I long for the day when Elder Scrolls IX: Morrowind-with-updated-graphics-and-improved-combat-oh-and-we-almost-forgot-to-mention-the-new-story comes out.

It will be amazing.

Oh look, it's this thread again!

People have opinions on stuff, and they will express them. If you don't like their opinions, you can offer a rebuttal in calm and polite manner. This is called a discussion, and is why we have a discussion forum. If people are flaming, you report them. You don't flamebait or anything like that.

Frankly, I enjoy the topics that actually talk and speculate about the game. Sure, the chances of the stuff to be implemented is pretty much zero, but we are hear to talk about it. Ultimately, Todd & Co. will do what they see fit, not what they read on the message boards.

Hmmm. Its a nice dream, but given that most of us can only agree to disagree on feature-sets, there is a 100% chance that people will still be mad. And even worse, they might add alot of features that no one wants.

It is a nice dream though. :)

This forum represents a minuscule percentage of the people who actually buy the game. The only reaso nwhy we see so many pessimists on the forum is because they are the ones who seem to have the strongest and most vocal opinions, and, thus, they are the ones who are most likely to look for a forum.

The great irony of this is that much of what people complained about in Oblivion were things they did in order to address complaints people had about Morrowind. And much of what has been revealed about Skyrim is likely due to (in addition to their own original ideas and goals for the game) their attempts to address complaints people had about Oblivion.

So they actually do seem to be listening. Some people just dislike the results. (But not the majority of people, judging by the increased sales of Oblivion over Morrowind.)

Many of those who complained about MW were consolers who didn't understand what kind of game it was. Had there not been a console port, Oblivion would've had a lot more depth and not so much hand holding. Unfortunately there may not have been an Oblivion if there was no console version of MW (which sold a butt-load of copies for EXBaWKs), so it's a catch 22. On the bright side, no Oblivion! =)

You know, I'm going to reply to this because you bring up a good point, and everyone assumes that people who dislike feature x or alteration y are only whining for the sake of whining. I do have faith in Bethesda to please the masses, and I'm sure at the end of the day, I will still appreciate Skyrim. And, once again, like you, I'm sure I will waste many hours playing a video game instead of tinkering on my cars.

That being said, I still have no intention of silencing my opinions on things I disagree with. =P

I respect your opinion but disagree with platform elitism on the basis of this: http://pc.ign.com/articles/845/845400p1.html Direct your attention to which platforms hardcoe enthusiasts were found to play most on. High-end PC gamers and console gamers fall largely into the same audience, believe it or not. I say this despite playing TES games primarily on PC, mind you. I'm not going to get into a platform debate though, as I loathe them. So if you wish to retort, just assume that my response in advance is, "I respect your opinion and agree to disagree." :)

As much as I think a lot of the ideas being floated have little chance of making it into the game (for many that's a good thing), the discussion and debate can be quite interesting.

You'll get no argument from me there. However, the suggestion that console gamers can't understand what kind of a game Morrowind was intended to be and so somehow adversely affected Oblivion's content disporportionately is unfounded, unsupportable, and insulting. And that's the last I'm going to say about it. *Agrees to disagree with whoever says otherwise*

Respect, peace, etc.

Rebuttal; well i could say the majority of them didn't. Just look at the market PC games have an ultra complexity you cant find on any of the consoles. Hearts of iron, Eve online, Arma 2, cities xl ect, RTS GAMES and so on. Just imagine if you got every CoD kid on his xbox 360 playing arma 2 they'd be like "WTF IS THIS BAAHHHH!" all day long. It's like taking people who played idk Fable 2 and throwing them at morrowind it would be to much for their minds to comprehend. While many PC gamers are used to really complex games that are intellectual challenging console gamers are not for there is nothing on the console platforms that even compares to the mental exercises that one would find in some PC titles.

Unless you can point out a game, for I've never seen one.

EDIT: im not saying they are stupid just not used to a game experience requiring you to think, it's like going from tic tac to to Three-dimensional chess.
