By the college of winterhold.

Well, I happen to be the Arch-Mage and I'm not aware of such study. I'll check in the Arcanaeum though.

Anyway, I'd say "patch", "dumbed down", "GOTY", "Oblivion", "Morrowind", "Destruction", "Smithing", "Enchanting", "Scaling"

I used to be an overpowered character but then I took an arrow to the knee and the game became broken, unbalanced and with many bugs.

Online or co-op should probably be on the list too.

Definitely immersion. It's the solution for all of Skyrim's problems. Think the game was dumbed down? Then you're not immersing yourself properly! Bugs cramping your style? You won't notice them if you focus on immersion! Game too easy? l2immersion!

Nostalgia!

Man, those times before were always so much better.

Statistically I don't know and an not going to try to work it out but to me "broken: seems most often used inappropriately. I fid unbalanced while overused is iften more appropriate to the issue if often even them overstating the problem.

Wrong, a brilliant man once said,"its broken if I say it is" . Therefore if it doesn't tailor to the users fancy then the game is in fact slightly broken. But I do agree from a technical standpoint claiming a game mechanic is broken is usually an overstated and often false statement.

I find, disappointment is quite often used

"This" ... and it's getting on my nerves

Whine is probably used too much. Or blind defense.

Extremes on any point on either side are annoying.

What is the most overused word in this forum?

In my opinion the words "Overpowered" or OP, and "Underpowered", or UP are most over used.

I'm not ever criticizing the comments when I say that. I'm just saying that I think they are overused and/or misused. If anything is beneficial to the Player Character it seems to be labeled Overpowered, In some post it just means "useful". Alternatively if anything in the game is not as useful as the poster thinks it should be, or if the poster is not clear on how to use it, then it seems to be labeled "Underpowered"

This thread is gonna be EPIC. Nearly as EPIC as this EPIC dragon battle I had on the EPIC slopes of a mountain. Skyrim is such and EPIC game and I love all these EPIC quotes from people.

Hmmmm most overused word, let me think...........

Anything including ''arrow'' and ''knee''. This stopped being funny after the third time, people.

RPG.

I can't tell you how sick I am of people claiming they know the ONE TRUE definition of that term.

I basically stop reading whenever I see that word in conjunction with "Skyrim". I'm not much for opinion pieces.

I think it is probably more like, THE, or IS, or GAME, or SKYRIM, or WHAT, or OR. Stuff like that.

This GAME IS unbalanced! SKYRIM does not deserve THE GAME of THE year reward OR do you think differently?

Lol.

On a more serious note, I think the word "immersion" was overused before release. I was very tired of hearing that word (and the whining).

» Sat Dec 17, 2011 10:32 am

I find "easy" over used a lot.

» Sat Dec 17, 2011 9:32 am

Nah that would be the longstanding most used word in all of TES overall.

'Adventurer', 'arrow', or 'knee'.

Might be. I wasn't a lot on the forums before Skyrim was announced.

- Overpowered
- Broken
- Unbalanced
- Bugs
- Arrow
- Knee

9 out of 10 threads have one of these words either in the title or in the first post, this is statistically proven. Threads like "cooking recipes are unbalanced" and "bare handed combat is overpowered" pop left and right, not to mention the "arrow in the knee" jokes.

The another 10% that don't contain any of these probably start with "Thank you Bethesda" or something but they are rarer than a backwards flying dragon.

So which one of these has become the most cliche in your opinion?

None of the above. The most overused word in this forum is Morrowind. I hear it in my sleep. I hear it in my Jeep. I hear it in a house. I hear it with a mouse. I hear it when I'm eating Green Eggs and Ham. I hear it all the time, Sam I Am.
