Yeah, these two day old noobs should play for 5 days like we veteran players before they start mouthing off. Ignorant fools.

LOL :rofl: that is so good. I am rolling! It is true that everyone is a noob as this game has been only out for 9 days. I for one bought the ps3 and even though I play everyday and love it I hate these issues I am having.

1. Can't remarry...I don't know why but this bugs the (fill it in yourself) out of me!
2. Quest for Bard is glitched where I am carrying 30 pounds of stuff I can't get rid of.
3. My werewolf can pull out a sword....?
4. Lag up the ass even after I deleted auto saves.
5. Alea is so glitched at times.
6. Couldn't marry Lydia before I even married anyone else. And yes I was a thane first.
7. Arrows get stuck as does ice and have to use game tricks to get them off.
8. Horse has no command prompt or when I get off runs away and I have to chase it.

I have a lot more but to be honest with all that going on I still play and love the game. I just hope this gets fixed and everyone gets on the same page. This hate PC has for console and console for PC is so [censored].

My biggest problem with this game is the inability to improve any kind of leather amor to legendary level because there is no associated perk. I can make dragon armor and boost it to legendary, but I can't get a simple leather suit past flawless? I wanted to keep my Thieves Guild outfit. Not cool.

Is this why my Companions gear will not upgrade past superior? Is it a bug or is that how it was meant to be?

Only complaint I have is that they took away spellcrafting. It was my favorite thing to do in the previous titles. I always played as a mage, but not even gonna bother with it in skyrim.

Still love the game and addicted like a mad man!

Complaints besides the game feeling like an expansion pack to Oblivion? It will take too long to list.

Fireless torches and camp fires really kills immersion.

But the holy grail of all bugs has to be that I'm unable to complete the reunification of winterhold because it's bugged so now my game is completely ruined and I've stopped playing. I want my money back.

Why can't you skip the tutorial with a new character?

I mean why?, did you think the tutorial was so good we'd want to play it again and again and again.

Hmm.... it seems I am one of the only ones who doesn't like the way the dialogue system works. It seems much more limited than in past Elder Scrolls games. Your character basically has one response (especially in the guild quests :wallbash: ) which really makes quests less unique and not interesting. Another thing I don't like is that some citizens have absolutely no dialogue options. What I mean by this is that all they say is, "Need something?", "Hmm?" (repeating every single time you come across them). :down: That just seems lazy...

Extremely fun game, simply masterful in some ways as well, but man, the story and dialogue just...svcks. Writing and character development should be a high priority, not a low one. I'm replaying New Vegas now after having done 3 different playthroughs of Skyrim and wow, although Skyrim is obviously miles above in terms of exploration and graphics, its faction system and questlines, characters, and story is very bland and underdeveloped. Not Fallout 3 bad, but certainly no better than Oblivion.

I could name a hundred and one things seriously crippling this game.

But I won't. I'll mention four. Like some of the little things that even bad games don't have poisoning their soul. Little things that are complete incompetence on the developer's part.

Like entering a room and not being able to leave because your companion is standing in the doorway and won't move out of your way. So you have to walk to the back of the room to try and lure her toward you, just so you can create enough space to get through the damn door.

Or crossing a river or waterway and realizing moments later that you no longer have your companion with you. That's right, she's lost in Oblivion, while you reload the game to try and get her back.

Or having your companion lounge around in some other room while you take on five mages by yourself next door.

The user interface I shouldn't have to mention again. But I will. Simply because It's so {censored} bad that i can't think of a word cruel enough to describe it. The consolization of the planet being the culprit, as i've seen this happen to so many great games in the past. Mods are the only saviour for this part of the game. My own experience, the UI was so annoying that I had to download a UI mod within the first hour of testing it. I don't think i've ever done that in my life. For any game. That's how poorly done this was.

My one grand complaint (besides the UI), I'm quite good at aiming, barely ever miss (unless I'm so far from my target that it is barely visible, AND moving), so as you can guess I'm quite good at taking out dragons with my ranged character, however my melee Dunmer, which only ranged weapon is a near-dead Waabajack (which I hit the dragon with every time mind you), will always fail (on adapt difficulty or above), because the dragons I've faced simply won't land... and when they do they are flying again within seconds... I've spent around 10-20 minutes dodging a dragons breath, only to have it land once or twice... my one problem with dragon-fighting is that I cannot fight them effectively without ranged...

I am in the same boat in regards to the dragon fights; EVERY dragon I have killed has been taken down by ranged wepaonry, and when I get close enough to hack and slash with swords or axes I usually get owned, so I stick to my Elven Bow of Frost/Blaze as they always seem to do the trick. Any effective strategies to go toe to toe with swords against dragons would be much appreciated.
