Tensei Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 No, what happened was that I fireballed a giant just to see if I could take him on. He shrugged it off, ran up to me and hit me with his club. The physics engine glitched out and I flew up way high. Quote
Gollgagh Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 or maybe you're supposed to fly that high Quote
Bleck Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 yeah I don't think it's unreasonable that a twenty foot giant could probably home run you into space Quote
Brandon Strader Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 or maybe you're supposed to fly that high Yeah I've seen that the giants when they club people, make them go up pretty high. I dunno about as high as tensei went lol but that's pretty funny, I guess it depends on how strong the giant is Quote

Garpocalypse Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 No midnight release for it here since the store said it could only do one a week and they had to go with MW3. Damn CoD. I'm taking a half day tommarow and running home to play it. I can't wait to hear more of Soule's ES work. Quote
NegimaSonic Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Game of the year. lol well that's a unique use. But hey pots won't be everywhere. I spent an unnecessary amount of today watching IGN AND 1UP stream the game [nonstory spoilers though :/] It was pretty cool. I still can't visualize for myself how major all the changes from the previous ones are. I saw a lot of great bow and arrow action, best use of sneak for battle I've ever seen. I always just ignored bows unless I was feeling lazy, but it almost looks usable here. Not happy about seeing that I'll probably be forced into sticking to a certain set of skills because even though you can do everything like in the old games, I kept hearing about a soft level cap at level 50 and a hard level cap at level 70. So sounds like no maxing everything... Everyone did seem to be used to dragon battles by the point they were showing off. Actually giants were more feared... Quote
Tensei Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Giants are just flat out stronger than dragons. I think dragons scale with your level though, since they're such a big plot point/gameplay element, while giants are mostly an optional fight for higher level characters (they're not even aggressive as far as I can tell) Quote
Flare4War Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Wow, looks pretty good. Especially because my brother has been playing through Elder Scrolls IV so I'm used to seeing that. Quote
NeoForte Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Little more than an hour till I can get my copy, to celebrate I made a new Kirby art piece ;D Dragonborn Kirby Quote

Jamphibious Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 I ALMOST went with Argonian, but after playing around with character creation I was pretty happy with a Nord character. Also, I feel like leveling is pretty damn fast, at least early on. I did one side quest and raided a small mine and I'm almost level 5. Not that this is a bad thing. The perk system seems pretty awesome, and combat feels better than Oblivion. Still kinda awkward, but fun nonetheless. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 I'm going Imperial this time, I feel next time I will be non-Argonian and side with the rebels.... The great thing about Argonian -- FISHING with unlimited breath! I've caught so many fish. There's a lot of them. Man, I feel like I spent most of the last 4 hours just walking, and probably at least an hours worth re-walking to places because I didn't save. Once the game "closed out randomly", and once I got pwned by a Wispmother in 1 hit and was like "wut". Quote
yangfeili Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 I probably need to go anything-but-Argonian, since I put in well over 100 hours in Oblivion on my Argonian serial killer character. Never even started the main quest, instead pursuing the Dark Brotherhood and Shivering Isles questlines, and then ultimately becoming the "Mad Bomber" on my own unofficial quest to assassinate the nobility. Mods make Elder Scrolls so great. Quote
Bahamut Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Oh hey: http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02323/ Quote
Fishy Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Bought it but I have a paper due mondayFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Quote
lazygecko Posted November 12, 2011 Author Posted November 12, 2011 Game is awesome, but the interface is awful, awful, awful. Especially the way the perk tree works, and how clunky/unresponsive the clicking is in general. Managed to pick a perk from a nearby different tree by mistake. Quote
Jamphibious Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Yeah, the the menus really have a tough time with the mouse. Hell even trying to control with the arrow keys didn't seem much better to me. I'll get used to it though, its not enough to ruin any awesomeness that is sure to be had. Quote
Gollgagh Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 yeah definitely controller oriented wasd seems to be the way to go Quote
Kenogu Labz Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 That was the case with Oblivion as well. It had one naaasty case of consolitis. Was hoping they'd learn and patch up their game but... oh well. :/ Quote
Brandon Strader Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 I'm not having the same issue, maybe because I am totally expert professional at using the mouse and the mouse wheel. Quote
