So who actually likes the game?

Post » Thu May 10, 2012 11:32 pm

So I only log onto the forums these days when i am grabbing a bite to eat and letting my system take a break, but every time I come here it seems like 60 percent of the posts are people complaining about the game while 30 percent are about people who cant get arrows out of themselves, while the rest seems to be people loving this game..

I am with these last people, I think Bethesda make quite a masterpiece with this game and I cant believe how much of my life just vanished in the last 3 days. I find myself standing atop waterfall watching the sun set and realize I have spent a half hour just staring, no game has done this to me before..

So for all you people who just love this game, what are some of your "Wow" moments? Please no spoilers and no negativity about the game, their are plenty of places for that around..

I have been here since before Morrowind and can say that what you describe is always the case in days following a new game. Those who love the game are playing. Those who don't are here complaining.

It grew on me, bigtime.

At first I was rather negative, but once I got used to it and gave most skills a test drive I love it.
Also it looks so damn good... http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/595828084891998563/EE5F290E701C010BD0208BD64F01177C3E0016DB/

I love the game so far.

I hate the UI.

These are not mutually exclusive. There's nothing wrong with critical thought.

Best game ever. This is the only game that had grabbed my attention for longer than 5 hours. Yesterday i played the game from 12 midday until 3 in the morning. Without even realising the time these games are hard to come by these days but when they do they should be grabbed with 2 hands.

Best game I've ever played. The reason there is so much negativity, is because only the hatred are left, everyone else is playing and enjoying. The scenery and northern lights are just spectacular.

don'tthink this thread is needed to be honest as it's so obvious this game is great :) , can't believe how many people on my steam friends list are playing it all the time . Not heard this much praise for a game in a long time.

Despite all my complaining, I think the game is pretty much amazing. I almost every way.
But I still think that the things like UI and mouse controll are a real shame, since it could've been so much better with just a few hours of work while the game was still in development, it's bit killing the overall amazingness.

despite few minor negative things - low textures and ui which has some small nuisances, this game is the most immersive ive ever played.Bay far it surpasses oblivion, and morrowind.
You will feel very natural in cities and everywhere.Good job on npc talks and flora fauna, and water.Too much fog sometimes but overall, this game is simply outstanding.

When I killed a bandit near a stream and went back to loot her and she was a few hundred feet downriver caught in the rapids, i knew this would be the greatest game ever

This is my favorite game of all time. The combat, finishing moves, magic, stealth, questlines, crafting... it is all I had hoped for and more. I completely agree with you OP, as I come on the forums every now and then, but what I see when I get here is insane. Complaining, complaining, complaining. But, to answer your percentages, I think the opposite is true of people actually playing. 90% are playing the game and loving it too much to even look at the forums, while the other few are here complaining about it. Therefore, when we 90% visit the forums, the negative from the 10% is all we see.

:lol: Yep!

Except I'd be playing right now only now, that damned thing called real life is interfering once more, and gotta do the work thing. :( Oh well. 9 hours time, the adventure continues! :D

This game is very cool. Graphics are very nice. Battles are cool and can be very intense.

And what am I doing when I start up again? On my way to my first dragon encounter...!!!!! Pretty exciting.

The only thing I can really complain about? The lack of a portable tent/bedroll/camp-type set up. And the grass as viewed from a distance - for example around Whiterun. Looking down from the heights, the tiles in the grassy ground (beyong where grass actually shows up) are quite visable. But I'm playing on 360, simply just the hardware. Some textures just don't load til you get close.
