So, on any given day, you can ramble over to the ES Skyrim forum and count no less than ten separate threads that are complaining about one thing or another in regards to Skyrim.
Much like you could in the Oblivion days.
Much like you could in the Morrowind days.
I wasn't around for Daggerfall and beyond, so I can't speak to that. I realize everyone's entitled to their own opinions, and I realize that without critisizm, the game developers have little feedback with which to improve things...but, really? Do we need to bash this game day in and day out, [censored]ing, moaning, whining and complaining about every little thing that just isn't quite right?
People...at the end of the day, it's a game. Personally, I think it's a fantastic game and rivals Morrowind (which I had much more trouble getting into) and certainly keeps me occupied. Granted, I don't have 1000 hours into it. But, here's the thing...if you've got hours and hours and hours invested in a game...how bad can it be? Obviously it's held your interest.
So, what I'd like to see in this thread is the POSITIVE things about Skyrim that you love. The general rule here will simply be the age old "If you ain't got nuthin' nice to say, then shut yo' damn mouth".
Mmkay?
blah blah blah blah, havent you learned by now that not only does this happen to these games but it happens to ANY and EVERY game ever created. It used to bugged me too but now i've just thicken my skin. We are dealing with the world wide web here. Any pimpled face kid, or some lonely grumpy old man can find something they dont like from here to kingdom come and post it on the forums.
Its a known fact that people that post are the minority of the gaming world. I wish this wasn't the case cause having the minority speak for the whole has interesting results. For instance, most people on the internet hate CoD, yet every one you know or met in real life loves it and its the only game they play, and not to mention its sales. Then look at Mass Effect, part 1 was great, then you have some cry babies who dont like the mako free roam missions and that gets wiped and its too RPGy so in pt 2 it becomes more like an action game. Also, one of my favorite games on the 360 right now is BF3. If i'd gone to the official site and read the forums bf playing this game i would have thought its the worst game in the world and may have been tempted not to buy it.
You see, take what you read on the internet with a grain of salt. Be happy with what you like and don't get svcked into the BS negativity. Sadly, it seems like only being negative people like the attention they get from it is the only thing i can guess. That or most gamers who post online are just spoiled and bitter people. I try not to even look at their agruments unless its a valid problem i'm having myself with the game. There has been a few games that i loved and then got ruined because of someone pointing out bad things about it.
Thus, thanks for you positive post. However, its a little vain in its plea for positivism in the forums. Its like some group claiming we need to end world hunger, stop all wars, get rid of all drugs, put everyone to work, and stop negativity in the Skyrim forums. See my point? It aint gonna happen.
