Genius game bar the interface ...
Whatever you do at least try it once!

I'm thoroughly enjoying stomping through the world with my Nord character Thisis Sparta!

The world is just beautifull ...

Yup, I'll probably play it on console as it's a game of such epic proportions  it will take an age to finish, so I'll make it my lying down and relaxing game  smile

I'm waiting for the GOTY edition when it'll be fully patched, come with all the DLC and be half the price.  smile

Enough games to tide me over until then...

I've played about an hour of the PC version.  It feels quite good and looks pretty cool too.  But already I'm missing Bioware's magic they put into NPC character creation.  I could give you loads of examples of the clunky nps stuff just from an hours play.  But my fav example is, NPC starts talking to me crossing a bridge, I keep walking turn around and the NPC is talking to thin air with there head at 90 degrees to their body thinking I'm still there.  They just feel like cardboard cut outs.

So far it feels like an expansion/upgrade to Oblivion with the same artificial characters.  But I'm still going to waist loads of hours on it at some point no doubt.  smile

I bought it on the Steam Deal and struggled with the GFX being a bit stuttery on my 6870.

During setup it set the system up for High, but no amount of tweaking made much of a difference, so I thought bugger it, let's try Ultra....and it was an instant improvement.  Cool

It's the first time I've run across a game that runs better on the highest settings available.  tongue2

I get slight roughness (not really stuttering) a tiny bit in Whiterun at certain view points and its apparently down to poor coding on multi core cpu's not gpu's.  Theres a mod out to address it, but its barely noticeable for me with all settings maxed so I'll leave as is.

About 60hrs in now and starting to get bored/repetition fatigue again.  Had to give it a break at 40hrs in.  Now I've got Dragon armour and highly skilled archer I'm solely pursuing the main quest.  Once thats done Witcher 1 & 2 for me.  Would consider returning to Skyrim a year down the line maybe to go through as different character.

Great game and my Game of 2011, but theres no way you'd have me do several hundred hours of it.  smile
