I'm not buying it : V - Skyrim

» Mon Oct 03, 2011 5:34 pm

I love the elder scrolls. yet something in my head is telling me not to buy skyrim, and to get Dark Souls instead. i am not sure why, skyrim just does not seem to appeal to me suddenly. but oblivion did not either. i had the choose of it being easy enough that i would never die, or the game would become unfair and kill me in ridiculous ways. i want a true challenge, and one with atmosphere, and that what Dark Souls is for me. could you try to talk me out of it? i feel like i will be missing so much! :cryvaultboy:

Well to be honest if you have the need for others to convince you to do "anything' well...you've pretty much answered your own question methinks! :rolleyes:

Dark Souls is going to be a very good game, I know that atleast Demons Souls was. Im going to get both Dark Souls and Skyrim, because they will both be great. But they are different type of games aswell. If i were you, i would have tried to get both, but if you can't afford it... I would have to say go for Skyrim. I think it will be a very very very good game, and will overall beat Dark Souls.

But you should definatly try for both, cus if your only getting one of them... You will miss out on a great game, one way or another.

The hell? Man... just buy Dark Souls if you must , and play it untill 11.11.11 and then go trade it in at best buy so you can get Skyrim for like.... $20 or something

oh, i will be lost in the underworld much longer than that. Dark Souls is a game where the story is simply whatever you make of the odd quotes through out the game, and i have a huge imagination and have already cooked up an epic story for it that takes into account the game's incredibly unique online interaction. it's almost like the others you see playing are not truly there, they are just wandering souls going through the same struggles as you are, alone as you are.

And you are asking this on TES Skyrim forums? what kind of answers do you think you will get? :spotted owl:

I would get both , Dark Souls combat should be impressive polished if it is like Demons Souls , and Skyrim , well is TES and i love all what TES means, i am sure both will be great games i wouldn't miss any of them :wink_smile:
