Elders Scrolls 5 - Skyrim - 11 Nov

I started out with one handed weapons and dual wielded the Skyforge War Axe for a while, and still do. But I use dual wield fire storm magic a lot these days. The good thing about it is that it staggers the opponent enough to shoot another time. This way you can kill then and keep them at a distance. Down side is your Magica runs out pretty fast just a few shots (think I'm at 6 now).

It does not work for all enemies, but I have a dual wield Lightning storm as well and can always use my 2 Skyforge axes I enchanted with 12 fire damage and I have an Dwarven Axe with 12 Freezing damage. which I ca dual wield as well. No need for a shield so far ;)

Starting to figure out what items I wanna enchant as well, got some nice boots that give me 30 points more I can carry and some other stuff I might wanna use.

 

What Knight said, BUT I did need a Steam account for it to play, so you will need an internet connection !
And if you don't wanna spend $50 you can also try Oblivion (the previous edition). It is about 10 years old now, but still looks amazing and is probably about $10 and the idea behind it is about the same. Big open world with a vary large amount of missions and quests you can do. It will give you 100's of hours of playing time for a small amount of money.

 

Yes Skyrim is way better, but I can imagine that paying $50 for a game might scare some people and if so Oblivion is a pretty good alternative.

One thing I am looking forward to is user created content for Skyrim, but we have to wait untill the mod software becomes availible from Bethesda. There were a few great mods for Oblivion and those will keep you playing for a while after you finished it the first time. Also the downloadable content from Oblivion was pretty cool, but not sure if they plan to do that for Skyrim as well. Anyway I have around 60 hours of playing time logged and for €50,00 thats way better then I ever did in EU ;)

 

I realize that Chrome and I did pay a lot for EU, but some how I did not buy any game next to EU just because I thought $50 was to much because I usually get tired of a game after a few hours. Pretty happy I did pay that for Skyrim though.

 

already have one ;)
I just bought both Morrowind and Oblivion on ebay for about 10 dollar each, so I'm in for a few more hours after this one :)

 

Why would one want to buy 5 other just released AAA games (unlimited, 0 decay) when you can buy a Quad-Wing in EU for the same cost?

 

indeed, but I'm sticking to Skyrim for a while

 

Now that you just bought Morrowind and Oblivion, you have Skyrim already and Arena & Daggerfall are free-to-play, will you play to whole series from the early beginnings to the latest finale grande?

I would really love to that but...

 

Might need to do that, will take a lot of time though
