Skyrim 6GB, Really? Bethesda gonna shove us console textures up in the a$s...

People keep talking about mods will make it better. Did any mods overhaul oblivion's garbage non-reactive combat and turn it into something somewhat tolerable ? I don't think so.

At least if your gonna make a s***ty action game, would it be too much to ask for some decent action ? :x

I actually think the gameplay looks better than any previous Elder Scrolls game and I say this as a hardcore Morrowind fanboy.

Oh and the graphics look very nice.

I'm still playing unmodded Oblivion currently, and despite the low res textures, is a BEAUTIFUL game.

I'm echoing this point of view, I don't get why everyone says it is an ugly game. It was probably one of the most beautiful game of its time (which of course lost out to Crysis but what hasn't.)

Personally I can write an essay on the flaws of Oblivion but ugliness would not be on it.

Yes, that's what Deadly Reflex does. It chucks the default combat system for a more in-depth, technical one.

Since when does size = quality? As far as I'm concerned, the smaller the size, the more games I can install.

Justa reminder, Todd Howard confiremd PC version is getting higher res textures

Quarl will sort it.

...because texture compression is all that matters I suppose. Please concern yourself with the steaming pile of crap between your ears before pointing out piles elsewhere.

As long as it dosnt have copy/paste dungeons I'll be happy.

so long as the story and gameplay are great they could re-use the oblivion textures for all i care.

What is Skyrim adding that's new? What sets it apart from Morrowind or Oblivion aside from the visuals? This isn't sarcasm, I'd like to know.

6GB ... that's freaking Oblivion with mods ... though by the looks of the system requierments Bethesda released I don't know what to believe anymore ...

P.S. Check out Start/Select, I guarantee you will laugh in the first 30 seconds and then at the end of the show when you see the requierments you'll yell "GTFO !"

As long as they don't consolize it in other ways I can live with it.

Please don't scare me, or i'll go mad and prepurchase bf3.. i have time til tomorrow 23:59!

I lol'd!

Hah, that was a great one! I will reserve my words for the final game. I'm sure it's going to look just fine but I really expected the size to be about double what it is. Maybe this 6gig size is for the PS3/360 version?

Remember Far Cry 2? It was like 3 gigs and looked amazing.

Then, remember RAGE? 20 gigs, and it had horrible textures.

Imma wait for the release.

PS: gta IV and ep.from liberty city, each one is 15gb, using 30gb of my hard drive, and textures are awsome, aren't they?

[QUOTE="bussinrounds"]

[QUOTE="Ikavnieks"] Actually OOO, Deadly Reflex, Midas Magic were among many, so yes, I think so.

Phoenix534

Yes, that's what Deadly Reflex does. It chucks the default combat system for a more in-depth, technical one.

Yup, I haven't played oblivion for a while now but DR mod among others made the combat really good and enjoyable. It's just sad that people sphew ignorance before even doing a simple google search.

It's hilarious that it seems that people expect better combat from a RPG then games that are actually built around combat, like Devil May cry and Bajonetta.

Well consoles are the lead platform. Everything that was translated to the PC version had consoles in mind.

This is so funny, yet so true ... although Rage got fixed ... kinda ... :roll:

[QUOTE="Phoenix534"]

[QUOTE="bussinrounds"] I said OVERHAUL the combat completly and give actual hit reaction ? Not just make slight changes to an already s**t system.

Mmmhmm. Deadly reflex for the win.

Leaping out of stealth in slo-mo for a critical hit to the neck is awesome (also note the texture pack :D)

[QUOTE="lordreaven"][QUOTE="the_ChEeSe_mAn2"] Didn't he also say that the game will look similar tot he console versions? So which one is it? :PMythPro1

[QUOTE="MythPro1"][QUOTE="lordreaven"] Touche.......Agent_Kaliaver

Why wouldn't we be surprised ? Games lately are over 10GB easy and just thinking that Skyrim, not some random other random game but Skyrim is 6 freaking GB ... how the hell did they put everything in that ... Only time will tell ... for now:roll:

Oooh, I was moderated with point loss again. I fail to see why someone can make a topic clearly insulting an upcoming game others have invested much of their selves in; yet one can't respond word for word exactly in kind.

You obviously never tried any of the mods. Don't know why you people jump in as if you have knowledge about them. If you never tried using a combat mod and I seriously doubt if you even tried one mod just don't say anything. It also saves you from looking like a big douche.
