The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim announced

I've been staying unspoiled so if this is true I am very happy since the spells in morrowind and oblivion were awful compared to dnd games.

Its true and on the Wiki.

Those 4 spells are confirmed.

Magic Circle of Protection is the new turn undead and moved to Restoration - it Repulses undead like a spell in Baldur's Gate and Glyph of Repulsion in DAO.

But it only works on undead, would be imba if that worked on everything.

The new spell system is redesigned to actually make magic feel magical this time, and not just adjustable numbers plus a spreadsheet.
 

I'd suggest avoiding these guys, I've bought from them 3 times. The first time my key for Civ 5 was removed from Steam (who told me it was stolen!), the second time they said it was in stock but I didn't get it for a week and with BF3 they tried to swap my key for a Russian one until I kicked off and got it swapped for a legit EU one.

The prices might seem good but I'd use someone like greenmangaming instead, they also don't use Moneybookers who are terrible.

Worth checking out their Facebook page to see the number of complaints they get about misleading customers - https://www.facebook.com/CJSCDKEYS
 
I saw that link and wouldnt ever go near them. Shopto were dodgy enough, I should have just kept my Tesco pre order for a fiver less. I wanted it by thursday and didnt think that tesco would post it in time, but they did!
 
I want to get excited about this game as i loved the other Elder Scrolls ones years ago but for some reason i'm not. Same goes for most other RPG's lately too.
 
Shopto were dodgy enough

Over-reaction much? What is dodgy about them? They tripped your card issuer's fraud prevention checks. I've had the same from Domino's Pizza and petrol stations. Doesn't mean there is anything at all wrong with the retailer.
 
Obvious results on the first page... 3.5, 4, 4 and 5 stars. Seems less dodgy than the shop which is attached to this forum in that regard!

I know, Thats why I dont listen to reviews :p

I just make sure it isnt completely terribad before using a new store.
 
Amazon were not going to dispatch until tomorrow which is a joke so I just cancelled and pre-loading on steam now.

What's up with Amazon lately? they don't dispatch as early as they use to with pre-orders :/
 
Well mine's been dispatched from G*** 2 hours ago.

Got the guide coming with it, just hope it's the 652 page guide and not some gimmick. They have been known to do this.

This is the first time I've bought a guide since I used to buy PC mags for the hints and tips. There was no internet back then and if you got stuck in a game, you got stuck until a mag came out with a guide / walkthrough.

See you next year.

I built my current rig to play this game.

Can't wait.
 
That made my day a bit worse, 3 main stats....cmon :(

The leveling system in Morrowind and even more so Oblivion was awful. Anything to fix that is a good thing in my book. I don't know about anyone else, but I like love the Elder Scrolls games despite of the mechanics; it's the rich open ended world that hooks me.
 
My copy from Amazon is on its way! Now to decide to play it on my 22" Screen with Headset on, or pay for the wife to go out for the evening and plug my PC into my 50" Plasma and turn on the surround sound? :)
