Skyrim

[Al B. Sure!]

Jon's correct. I know I'm missing part of the game, but I can always do that with another character. I like that there is no karma system. I actually really dislike karma systems--I don't want someone telling me if my choice was good or bad, I'd much rather evaluate that myself based on what its actual consequences are. That's the way I see the lack of a karma system in Skyrim.

You're actually going to make a second character?

I've put in over 100 hours in my guy and there's no way in hell I'm making another.

I wouldn't play through the whole game with it, just those missions, and I'd use it to try the stealth build.

That's what I did in Oblivion. A regular character and a stealth character. But I don't remember whether I've finished the game at all in Oblivion, so I might just want to power through Skyrim, and skip over Theif's Guild and all sorts of other stuff. *shrug*

Also, I have Lydia following me everywhere. She just s up, especially since she has the ebony I looted and a nice sword. As a character she's about as interesting as a faded brick, though.

[Hauldren Collider]

Now that's a weird bot.

[Felch]

Mark V. Shaney perhaps?

[Hauldren Collider]

Holy ****, I knew Rob Pike was awesome, but I didn't realize he was that awesome.

[flutterbanica]

i am genuinely confused by this thread now

[Al B. Sure!]

Well I also went back and finished Fallout 3. Funny thing. I haven't touched it in 2 years (2 years and a day, funnily enough!), but all I had to do with accompany Liberty Prime to the Jefferson Monument and sacrifice myself.

[Felch]

You didn't get the expansions? I forget which one raised the level cap and extended the plot. Broken Steel I think.

[Hauldren Collider]

The Older Scrolls is so much better than the Elder Scrolls.

[Felch]

Jonydec is right. With mad skillz come mad responsibilitiez.

The next expansion will include turning the game into an MMO so you can play online with your friends.

[Fistandantilus]

Yeah, a disgrace.

[Al B. Sure!]

Yeah, a disgrace.

You have no friends who played Skyrim if you don't see what's great about it being taken online. We would discuss quest outcomes, compare items, skills, and perks, and try to out-bad-ass each other's characters. One guy even took a picture of his character decked out and put it on facebook. Having some sort of online mode, even with limitations, would have been great.

We all played Call of Duty and what kept us continuing to play was to out-do each other in prestige ranks, get rarer emblems and titles, etc.

Skyrim doesn't necessarily have to be MMO but having some sort of online (maybe Diablo-style with a limited number of players per game) would have been fantastic.

Unfortunately, my friends and I have it on the xbox which won't get an online version.
