This, Battlefeild 3, and Diablo3 are the only expensive games i will be getting this year. I will probably wait for the Goty and Mod the everliving **** out of it.

Tough question. If the game is actually more than a gigantic tech demo, unlike Oblivion, then I will buy it. However, obviously I won't be able to trust any reviews, either professional or user, so it's a conundrum for sure.

I will get it, don't think I will get it this year though.

It is one of the only Midevil Fantasy like games I am interested in.

The only others that could remotely be considered are Diablo 3, and Zelda lol. I am rather burned out on that setting. But Diablo and Zelda get the Auto-pass treatment (I love those franchises)

Skyrim, well Oblivion was better to me than morrowind, (but I played Morrowind on the xbox) I am interested in Skyrim, like the combat. Really one of the only games with that setting that I think I could invest much time into, other than the ones I mentioned above.

I will be getting it thats for damn sure, just when is the question. I said to myself I would never pre order a game again or buy on release as the price usually drops so fast these days... I'll wait and see.

Yes unless it scores lower than a 7 on average then more than likely not. Day one otherwise.

Nope. Dressed-up meshes & textures + no high-end GPU detection =/= Witcher 2. TW2 has a recommended GPU of GT 260, and Todd Howard said Skyrim on PC will look the same as other platforms. Minimal stats also kills a RPG.

You already claimed this in a SW thread. You also claimed the game only has 10 hours worth of gameplay :?

After a significant decrease in price or an awesome sale, sure. I'm not excited for it in the least though.

Why not the PC? You chilling with a mac? I don't like to push people to get a game on a certain platform, but Bethesda's games are heaven on the PC thanks to the mod community.

I going to pass on it for awhile. Might get it after a price drop. Oblivion needed help from the mod community, and I'm expecting the same with Skyrim.

Well, I'm not. I have a very good reason aswell. Its not an opinion on the game, its not even about the game. I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER BETHESDA GAME BECAUSE THE ARE **** THEY HAVE TRIED TO SUE NOTCH/MAJONG FOR 10 MIL UPFRONT AND 10 AFTER. BECAUSE NOTCH'S NEW GAME IS CALLED SCROLLS AND THEY FEEL SCROLLS IS TRADEMARKED TO "THE ELDER SCROLLS". This is stupid becuase it would be like apple saying you couldnt use an I in a product becuase it would sound to much like the Iphone. NO! Apple doesn't sure becuase they have no right. BETHESDA HAS NO RIGHT TO SUE MAJONG AND SO I WILL NOT GIVE THEM MY MONEY. Its like what happened with CoD. $15 map pack out on 360, people are just like, meh their **** but I'll give em money anyway, then they now release them all the time. So what you are effectively doing is saying "Oh well let bethesda be***** and I'll still give em my money" Indies are going to be the only devs you can trust soon as all big Devs will be **** because you keep paying them to be ****. So NO I WILL NOT GIVE MY MONEY TO *****!

I'll probably wait for the eventual GOTY edition. Didn't really enjoy Oblivion too much, but it was decent.

I'm not a huge fan of fantasy games but i'll get this on day one just because of the sheer volume of content Bethesda has in their games. It'll probably keep me busy for a very long time.

I might get it when its like 10-15$ It feel like it will be oblivion 2. I dont like alot of the things that they have done and changed with the game. And then you have the thing the devs have been saying about their PC users. Overall im not impressed.

Ya I hear that about reviews. I only use them to inform me if the game is a bug ridden pos. Otherwise I'll just get it and deal with it ifI don't like it. That quite fortunately doesn't happen very often but it does happen. You just have to take your chances, get a spine and not worry about what other people think.

ill be getting it at the winter steam sales for about $33 assuming they will do what they did with witcher 2.

Even though I'm a huge fan of this game, $60 is way too much for any video game. Ill just have to wait a couple months.

I'll wait for a significant price drop (say, $10 or so) which should give the modding community ample time to fix all of the ridiculous design decisions Bethesda are sure to inflict upon the game in the name of acce$$ibility.

Considering it comes out in Nov I doubt it will be half off a month later.
