I have to admit, I'm probably poll option 3. I love TES and love Skyrim, but don't really mind complaining about the game a little.

I TRY to show love, and reason.

This thread sounds a little too much like / could easily devolve into "complaining about complaining".

[Pat RiMsey]

I use the forums to show my opinion!

[Cameron Wood]

Bit of both the middle and bottom options. I do like a good debate - but I've not been disappointed by any design decisions yet, so I tend to lean towards just showing the love.

[Annick Charron]

I say what I like and don't like. Most of the things added/changed I like so far, but the game isn't out yet. I'm sure I'll find something to complain about.

[luis dejesus]

Clearly will be locked or moved, but anyway I don't quite fit any choice.

[meghan lock]

I don't mind criticism of the game if it's constructive or if it's a serious problem, but some of the things that are complained about on here.

This.

We are ALL here because we love TES (Well I assume and hope so :wacko:)

But I guess we are also here to chat with other fans, voice our opinions on the things already announced, speculate on what hasn't and eagerly await more information.

[Laura Samson]

Know love to avoid the banfall.

Guess we all complain in a sense. Whether it's starting a complaint thread or complaining about a complaint thread. Though with the latter, I think they are just trying to tell complainers to lighten up. I don't mind the so-called complaint threads, as long as it doesn't involve outright bashing of BGS. Those guys are working extremely hard so they do deserve some respect for that. But if it's constructive criticism or suggestions/opinions done in a mature and friendly manner, then I'm fine with that and the debates on those such threads can be very entertaining and informative.

I'm a lover, not a fighter, in the games I play and I don't see any reason to spread hate here. This is about gaming, a leisure activity and words and tone have an effect on people so it's important to choose them wisely and be thoughtful about posts. The forums are a way to communicate, not spew. More humor is always good and suggestions about the game should never be hateful. I don't read posts like that. Is it 111111 yet?

:tes:

[Mimi BC]

If I dislike something I don't keep quiet about it. Otherwise, if I get results I don't enjoy, I feel guilty for not speaking up when I should have.

[Isaiah Burdeau]

I am probably option 3. I just like to come to the forums and discuss how the game might be; just to let my imagination loose for a bit before going to class lol.

[no_excuse]

Love the game, definitely. I've played enough Bethesda games to give them the benefit of the doubt on all of their design changes. I'll form a concrete opinion after I've actually played the game.

[john palmer]

I use the forums to show my opinion!

...and my hopes.

I use the forums to get and spread information. I don't think any of us would be here if we didn't have at least some interest in Skyrim. There's a special place on the internet for showing your hate for all things Bethesda and it's not here.

[Tha King o Geekz]

I like to share my opinion, which usually involves complaining.

[Rusty Billiot]

I like debates, but I love The Elder Scrolls: V already, if I complain or 'hate' something, I will state it, but I'm not above changing my mind on something if proven wrong.

[Jake Easom]

I just love how having a differing opinion, even one that can be based on supporting data is called "hating the game.”

I think most people are here because we want the game to be as good as it possibly can be, that cannot occur without feedback. What we as the player/purchasers see as potential benefits and pitfalls of certain choices should be discussed. All games are choices about what to make or not make or what to include and what to cut; yet in the end this game is being made for US. This is not some "puritanical" passion project for the people at Bethesda, this is a commercial product they want us to buy it. I would even say they are good enough artisans to want us to ENJOY what we bough not just stew silently about the choices.

Sometimes constructive criticism is painful. Sometimes there is no good spin that can be applied to a certain choice. In addition, when our criticism must be painfully constructive or and cannot be spun into sugar candy is exactly the times when we need to speak up.
