First half-hour of Skyrim leaked, GOTY confirmed

[QUOTE="Laharl5"]

I hope it Skyrim will score a 6 or 7. Every site. Real score for Oblivion was 5.5.

yeah so do I!

I really like to see games fail, it makes me feel so good inside.....WTF?:roll:

Bethesda makes garbage. -_-

Why would I support them?

It was garbage in his opinion.

Bethesda hasnt made a good game since morrowind and I doubt Skyrim will change that. It will be praised to the high heavens at launch, but as people go further on they will notice the long list of flaws. That is my theory anyway.

I found a link to the xbox360 version of this 23 min leak... I played about 2 secs of it and shut it off. I can wait to experience this for myself.

We all know how great this game will be, so there is no need to watch something we will all be playing in 10 days.

Let's show some patience, people. Imagine how great it will feel to experience these 23 minutes for yourself -- untainted by curiousity of a low res video.

Every link in this thread has been taken down D:

the theory is correct, but has a small flaw

Skyrim will be released in a world that Dark Souls exists and comparissons will make it look dated in every way from the very few hours imo

Oblivion has nothing to compare to back then

They are both RPGs and with open worlds, it is just that my experience with Dark SOuls is so much better than with Oblivion that i doubt i will be able to enjoy Skyrim that looks about same to Oblivion much, after having played a masterpiece like Dark Souls

Will be a great game for sure because of the content and exploration, but not even close to Dark Souls imo and not even close to GOTY as the thread suggests

skyrim will be much more of a world where you can wander around doing what you like, thats the reason i am getting, to explore the world. I cant wait to pick my first nirnroot, encounter the dark brotherhood, mages guild, fight my first dragon etc.

I get it doesn't appeal to everyone, some people need stuff and action to be happening all the time, i dont. wandering around the countryside in oblivion was great. i did it for hours.

There is no need to hate on skyrim just because you didn't like oblivion. nobody really cares if you want to buy the game or not. Skyrim has a great chance of getting GOTY awards, doesn't mean that because its not your personal choice, everyone else is wrong though.

^^^^ this Also Tod Howard point blank said if you didnt like oblivion chances are you won"t like Skyrim, anyone thinking that Skyrim doesn"t stand a chance at GOTY is in serious denial, you might not like the game but that doesn"t change the fact that its going to be really good for fans of that kind of game, sell a truck load of units( dare I say far more than Darksouls)

[QUOTE="sts106mat"]

yet again you come into a thread with an attitude problem trying to annoy people rather than actually try and have a proper discussion about the games.

enjoying a game bethesda release doesn't make anyone a bethesda fanboy dude.

From IGN's review of Dark Souls:- "The reviewer's job is difficult when it comes to a game like Dark Souls. I simply can't unreservedly recommend that you buy it. It's not a game that you play to relax. It doesn't care in the slightest about whether you're enjoying yourself, and it doesn't give a fig for your notions of entertainment or your mental well-being. If you just play games for fun, this isn't for you".

Now, I do play games for fun and to relax, so to be honest i would pick skyrim over oblivion every day just because its going to be like oblivion, which i had an amazing time with.

I will get dark souls eventually, as i want to experience it to see what all the fuss is about.but just because skyrim doesn't appeal to you, doesn't make it a bad game for other people. a

Also, low standards? LOL, there are plenty of games with poor graphics (most previews state the graphics are great) and poor voice acting that do well, because they are greater than the sum of its parts.

sts106mat

lol, taking a quote from the perspective of one reviewer does not make a factual point about the game, it just reflexts his/her experience and or skill level. I acually play Dark Souls to relax, I slash and destroy enemies. The game is ALOT easier than Demon's Souls, I actually wish the game was a bit harder.

Furthermore......

sts106mat "but just because skyrim doesn't appeal to you, doesn't make it a bad game"

You are right, it's bad because of all the technical and gameplay related things I listed that are bad,which every other game also has to be measured on. Let me remind you I liked Morrowind and I accepted all of those flaws at the time because of the huge and detailed world was quite a feat that the time...but that was in 2003--it's 2011 now.

sts106mat "low standards? LOL, there are plenty of games with poor graphics"

:? somehow you got "graphics" out of all that which I wrote, lol *shakes my head*...I do like a game with good graphics, but that has nothing to do with anything I have said here.

The reviewer rated the game a 9 out of 10, and actually went onto give it high praise in the later part of the paragraph i quoted. Its well known that Dark Souls is a hard and punishing game, every thing i have read about it says so. the developer also stated that it is harder than demon souls. If you find it easier, thats probably because you played Demon Souls and are much better prepared for the battles ahead.

As for you saying skyrim is bad for some reasons you have determined that from very poor footage where the sound is clearly poorly recorded and the video looks heavily compressed. its a 100+ hour game, i will wait to play it before i judge it as "bad" if its even a 1% improvement on oblivion, it will likely be my favourite game of the gen.

If skyrim comes out and gets 10/10's critical acclaim across the board and the graphics voice acting etc are on par with other games in the genre, what will you say then? what if gets a 10 at GS or IGN, what if it wins GOTY and RPG of the year practically every where? Will you be all upset? will you even bother looking at buying it? not saying it will happen, but it is surely not impossible.

Now, your post that i originally quoted, called bethesda fanboys out ( you said "Bethesda fanboys: Voice acting don't matter, animations don't matter", these are things i said earlier in the thread, that means i am a bethesda fanboy according to you). so tell me, if i have expressed an interest in Dark Souls, do you think it would be worthwhile me getting it and trying to play in in the lead up to skyrim? i am still playing batman and forza, but the game does sound good.

whats funny is that if you visit a discussion forum for the game, the conversations are out of this world. i.e. "if you haven't visited the crystal cave, you need a plus one pyromancy to defeat XXXX, but you should kindle there and not walk around being human form" you know what i mean, it certainly has its own unique language and i have no idea what anyone is on about, which suggests to me a rich and involving world, which was what i got from oblivion, where everything was all brand new, i like the sound of that.

So should I give it a try? or just wait till skyrim? and pick up dark souls at a later date.

and MGS4 was given a perfect 10 and was my most anticipated game coming into this gen...did't stop me from criticizing it's flaws when it failed to live up to my expectation for what I thought the franchise was supposed to deliver. As a gamer the score it got wont change the fact that it's the worse MGS game I experienced in the franchise.

Also I really enjoyed Morrowind elder scrolls 3...a much deeper and engrossing game than Oblivion is, so I konw what the world is all about, I didn't expect a diffrent game all together but it was simply a worse experience than a game(morrowind)from last genenration.

And of course I recomend Demon's/Dark souls to any gamer. I think you love or hatred for the game really depends on what kind of gamer you are. I grew up during theNES/Genesis days were almost every game would be considered *hard* by todays standards, that didn't change the fact that there were good games and bad games just as there are today. Dark Souls is a GREAT game by any standards or time-frame. Dark Souls is about immersion into a game world, and it can only be matched by it's predisessor Demon's Souls, difficutly is only an issue for gamers who can't cope with anything other than the casual hand-holding games presented in this generation. People hating Demon's/Dark has nothing to do with the actual quality of the game--the same can not be said about Oblivion. I'm not a skyrim *hater* but Oblivion just wasn't a good game nor what I expected after all the hype and BS. The same kind that's going on with skyrim (roll..Live action trailers?!?!? WTF) it's ironic that you mention that Oblvion was higher rated and praised by critics (marketing) when the majority of the fans of the serise will tell you that Morrowind was the better game...far better.

Oblvion isn't a hard game either, so it's not an issue of me not being able to play the game like many of the haters of Demon's/Dark souls are, I just want a game I buy to actualy be good and not all hype. Demon's Souls and Dark Souls are 2 of the few games this generation that deliver in the actual game and not just unrealistic and fictious hype. If skyrim is even just as good as morrowind it will be a great game and I hope it will, but that is a big if...it's not looking quality the fans are praising it to be.

amazing absolutely amazing.

the quirky dialogue and voice acting is a throwback to morrowind, it's really not a bad thing and shouldn't be given as much attention as some of you are giving it.

seriously that whole intro reeked epic morrowind. nostalgia

lol Oblivion fans and their low standards

Bethesda fanboys: Voice acting don't matter, animations don't matter, combat and gameplay don't matter...Skyrim got a Open worlds and uhh...teh coversation systemz.

I liked Morrwind and all but it's 2011 not 2003. Standards have risen get with the times.

well, if oblivion was that good to you then by all means go out and get skyrim because surely even with all of my gripping, it looks like a much better game than Oblvion.

Thanks for telling me that oblivion was your first "elder scrolls type" game you played that explains alot. I might have enjoyed oblivion too if I had not played morrowind first. Also Dark Souls is a "different" experience from Oblivion all together it's an either "you love it" or "you hate it" type of game. I guess you would never really know until you play it, but the game is so awesome you literally owe it to yourself as a gamer to give it a try.

I will say this however, Dark Souls is a game where skill actually matters, or rather skill is the most important thing in this game. If you are not one who is excited by the prospect of using real skill in order to conquer a game...then Dark Souls is not for you.

(think of games like streetfighter4/ GT5/or past gen games likeProject Gothem Racing/Megaman/ castlevaniaeven tetrisetc..if you can't stand all those types of games I would say pass on Dark Souls)

it's one of the most polished games on the market, technical wise and gameplay wise. Of couse the game is going to have a few frame-rate drops in a few areas of the game, some of the portions of the game are frecking enormous. 97% of the time there are no noticable frame-rate drops and that's like the only *technical issue* to be griped at about the game--and that only happens for like a second or 2 and it's back to flawless gameplay.

I've been playing the game for a while now so clue me inon these so called "bugs and issues" you are talking about?

Dark souls is a good game it has a good few glaring flaws. First of all the framerate in a lot of areas is really bad. Sometimes it can drop below 10 fps. The itemisation is a bit strange in the game too compared to Demon's Souls. Then you have all the exploits and glitches that probably still aren't fixed (I've not played it for a while since I sold it) which just break the multiplayer.

Nevermind the fact that this only happens in very few select portions of the game and only lasts for a second or two.

Animations are what the developers pre-determine for the characters movements and they are the best of any type of RPG out, lol what are you tring the change the definition for what things are now?

Nevermind the fact that this only happens in very few select portions of the game and only lasts for a second or two. I love how you make the comment as if this is part of the experience of the game when it barely even happens.

Stop quoting reviewers and speak from your own experience you can't count frames when you actually play the game, that's why your comment here on the game sounds so phony.

Blight Town is pretty much the only place I've really noticed it, but it never affected my gameplay. sorry about that.

[QUOTE="-Unreal-"]I have never once in my entire life been to Digital Foundry, know what it is, or have seen any other gaming media comment on the framerate issues of DS. In fact the only review I skimmed through was Kevin Van Ord's. As for the framerate, it is 'only' in select few areas, I don't need to "count the frames (which isn't even possible without software) I just gave a very honest, simple estimate of what it more than likely is. However, these few areas it does happen in are still a large issue. I died a good amount of times in DS particularly in Blight Town due to this horrid framerate. You don't need to take jabs at me either just because I'm pointing out you favourite video game's shortcommings. It's quite pitiful.-Unreal-

:? maybe it happens in diffrent place for diffrent people, which version of the game did you have PS3 or 360?

Thread got interesting IMO.

At least Skyrim starts off better than Oblivion.
