so, since small retailers broke the Launch date, the gamestop in my hometown started selling the game half a day early. (PreOrdered there.)

in for like 2 Hours.. and holy cow, it totally feels like Oblivion from the very start. Only that it is bigger, better, and more badass. shortly after the introduction scenes, i just went up a Mountain, and i was blown away by the atmosphere.. Snowstorm, enourmous drawdistance, awesome OST.

cant wait for everyone to get it!

(PS: playing the PS3 version, looks great! but i wonder when we'll see an LoT Comparison... even tho i dont care, since PC Version > all and stuff, but i am kinda curious.)

GAH 16 more houres.....



Former something....

after seeing the Screenshot comparison on Lensoftruth, (and the washed out screens fro the PS3 Version) i couldnt help myself to do the following;

if LOT uses RGB Full and HDMI Superwhite, i didnt say anything, but some of the shots of 'em look really.. not so good as it did on my TV, and my TV is a crappy one, having low Contrast Ratio and only 720p resolution.

 

NOTE: This screen is ONLY supposed to show the difference in Texture-Depth, everything else is, of course, crap - since the shot was made offscreen. (with a cheapass mobile phone)

This isnt really a slate on the game but im finding the visuals in the game not all that good, but i honestly think this is due to me just finishing Uncharted 3, so with me viewing those Unbeatable visuals for 12 or so hours it's been a massive downgrade when moving to Skyrim. Also i've also just finished Dark Souls and the combat in that game is by far the best for a fantasy, sword/shield combat game and it sort of makes Skyrims combat feel a bit amateur compared to that.

But never the less i am enjoying the game and will put a big amount of hours into it, but probably not enjoying it as much as i thought i would at the moment.

On the first day the most users simultaneously playing online on steam was 230k. So I think it must have sold at least 400k day one on PC alone. Considering 360 and PS3 sales are going to be higher its sales are going to be enormous. From my 7 hours of playing so far. Everything about the game is nearly perfect except the hand to hand combat. It just doesn't feel fluid enough compared to say dead souls. Still its a big improvement over Oblivion and not bad by any means. Anyway off to take a shower and then continue playing.



wheres the Thieves guild?

After watching my brother play this, I'm really finding it hard not to go out and buy this game today, but I need to stay strong. I'm either gonna wait until I clear out some of my backlog or wait until the GOTY edition comes out. Didn't think Bethesda could make a game that appealed to me, but I was woefully mistaken.

So far loving it and thinking of the game constantly even when Im not playing.

I picked a Nord and I was going for battlemage but as I play on Master (highest) difficulty I realize I may need to sneak and stealth a lot too.

Speaking of difficulties, this game can't be played on Adept ( "normal"). For any reasonable challenge I think you need to play on Expert or Master.
