What version of Skyrim is everyone pre-ordering? I'm skipping the physical copy for the PC and getting directly from Steam.


I'm getting a hard copy from Gamestop. No midnight release though :(

I'm begining to wonder if I shouldn't have made Marksman and sneak two of my primary skills. Seems that they are the ones that I use the most. Especially in dungeons. I"ve gotten pretty good at sniping enemies while sneaking around. Sure keeps my damage at a minimum and them two skills are getting up there pretty good. Journeyman in both of them.


If you use them most, it's a good idea NOT to tag them. You still increase these skills normally, just start at a lower level in them. You do get attribute modifier increases on level ups from raising these skills. And you don't gain new levels by raising them - which is a good thing.

Naughty, you're a mod on the Bethesda forums? Congrats! How did you become one? I haven't been in there in a while because my email account stopped working and it wouldn't let me in. I have to re-sign up again.

I had to perform a dragon shout loud enough to frighten Todd Howard. And then I had to defeat all the other mods in no-holds barred backyard wrestling.

Sympathy4saren where are you located that your GS isn't havning a midnight release for the game? I'm in Md and mine is.

Haplose- I'll have to agree with you as I've started the game 3 times and finally got a Pc for which I'm happy with. You see the first time I didn't think she was going up at all so I thought something was wrong. The next one went up way to fast. And now my current Dunmer isn't doing to bad slow increases and deadly with a bow and sneaking. And to think I never used to like bows in other games similar to this that I played. But in this one the bow is the first weapon I go for most of the time.

Naughty- thanks for the info I think<LOL> Don't put me any closer to getting the sword now though.<G> Guess I'm stuck waiting; BTW how much did it really cost you to be a Behesda mod.<G>

Lol. Well congrats man, that's pretty neat. That sorta makes you a...Bethesda employee :P. I would love to do some writing for them...I even live semi close to their studio in Maryland. Their studio can't be more than two hours away from me. Are they hiring young, inspired writers with Associate's Degrees? Lol

The Gamestop I go to is in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

They aren't doing the midnight release because of Call of Duty. That might change...hopefully. Friggin frustrating, but oh well.

look more closely:

The Umbra Sword is an artifact designed with the sole purpose of entrapping souls. The ancient witch Naenra Waerr created the sword by imprisoning Umbra in it. Umbra was a dark being, in the shape of a man but with eyes like holes into nothing, and craved souls. 

Naenra was executed for her evil creation, but not before she hid the sword. The sword took on a life of its own, remaining hidden until a worthy wielder was found. Umbra would then slowly take control of the wielder as its hunger for souls began to steal their's. 

In 3E 427, an Orc warrior who went by the name of his sword, Umbra, was spotted in the mountains outside the settlement of Suran on the island of Vvardenfell. The Orc's only desire was to die in battle, but no foe could defeat him. 

At his request, the Nerevarine (the hero of Morrowind) bested the Orc in mortal combat and claimed the Umbra Sword. The sword came into the possession of Torasa Aram later that year, and was put on display in her museum in Mournhold.

Sometime after the events of 3E 427, the sword was discovered by a Bosmer named Lenwin, from a small settlement in the area somewhere in between Skingrad, Bravil and the Imperial City. She became bloodthirsty, and began calling herself Umbra after the sword, retreating to a nearby ruin.

This game is going to be a lot like Oblivion isn't it?

In some ways it will be like Oblivion. It's a sandbox game, it has skill use scaling and a build-your-own class system. You can also be any race you wish in the game world series that Oblivion had.

Skyrim won't have total monster level scaling, the art direction is much better and the AI should be alot better with a much improved Radiant Story system. Attributes are gone, which might be good or bad, I'm not sure yet how this will play out.

I was hoping to try the new "Andoran" mod for Oblivion before Skyrim, but it seems they might not be finished with the translation of the dialogue until around the time Skyrim is released:

The latest screenshots from Andoran look amazing! It's like an entirely new game.

FFS!  That's amazing.  I'd reinstall for that.

Are Rohugh and Freddo still around? Haven't checked the Bethesda forums in a long time. Too big and crowded a place for me.

Naughty- I think I"ve figured out exactly the area that your talking about and I'm going to go over there and check things out. It took to re-read it a couple of times.<LOL> I'll let you know if I was right in my deduction. BTW great pics and you say they are for an Oblivion mod? Someone sure has some talent and it isn't me.<LOL> I just play the games.

Ryllen you think it will be as much game play as that for which there is in oblivion? I hope that the Pc characters look better than they did in Oblivion.<LOL> Are they going to have them pain in the rear mudcrabs in the game: Or a quest like the one for which I'm working on now where I need to search for god knows how many nirnroots? Now I can see how you folks opened up most of the areas of the game. You've got to literally look all over the place for them things. I just hope it's worth it.

Sympathy4saren- Now that there sucks to be honest with you. The last time for which I checked at my local GS is that they were still having the midnight release for the game.

One of the reason I don't hang out in the Bethesda forums is that they are huge.

Did you play the Nehrim total conversion mod? In many ways it is much better then the original game (such as much less pointless, copy-pasted dungeons with useless random junk, amazing hand-placed environments, much stronger story focus).
It can be found here:

Anyone else excited about that dog? Do want!

Yes I really want to try both Nehrim and Andoran, but I still haven't finished Oblivion:blink:

Perhaps after playing Skyrim for a few months I can take some time next year to try these two conversion mods.

 A few new confirmed voice actors has been added to the list!
www.imdb.com/title/tt1814884/

Wes Johnson's back! Woho :D

Also, we have the amazingly talented Lani Minella doing female Dunmer/Night Mother/Nocturne
Was pretty shocked when I looked at the list of all the games she's been in and the vocal range she must have!

I think I've been most exposed to her voice in the Diablo series, where she did Adria The Witch, Andariel, The Countess, Blood Raven, Malah... and all of the the Ancients ^^

Never heard of her. Did she voice the female Elves in Oblivion and Morrowind?

Huh, I've only heard her in Torchlight. Seems like a talented lady though.
