If it helps any I was running skyrim on med settings on a Pentium D 925 (3ghz) 2 gig of ram, and a Nvidia 9600GT. And it ran very well. Not as well as my new rig. So that should give you a good base line on what a very outdated machine can do with skyrim.

TBH, I think the rage towards that joke is just as overdone as the joke itself. It's just a joke, get over it...both sides! :O:

It is overshadowing, the much more lulz potential FUS RO DAH meme out there.

I want to murder every retard on you tube who puts this in, most likely with a smile on thier gimpy faces as they type it, thinking they are clever.

By the time most of you hear about internet memes it is already old...:shucks:

SKYRIM EPIC RAP

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j50u0zUeCmU

this game is wowzah!

skyrim nexus is a must, their NMM is not so wowzah! (I know still in beta) so I've been manually installing the mods.

Cannot wait to see what the talent does when the CK comes out.

I've only installed one mod but I set up JSGME for the game installation folder and used that. Worked fine, it was just adding a couple of textures. I have another mod I will be getting but I don't know yet what all files are involved since I haven't downloaded it yet. I'm hoping I can just use JSGME for anything that I want to add.

And yeah even on the threads for the couple of mods I've looked at, people are talking about issues with NMM. I don't even know what it is other than something to do with modding the game but I'm staying away from it if I can.

NMM is Nexus Mod Manager :up:

Basics are very similar to JSGME, you drop in the .zip, make sure the folder structure
is correct and enable the mod.

Only tried it briefly when it was first released, but dropped it as very few people
were making their mods NMM compatible.

Dunno why they just didn't keep it like OBMM was: simple. :hmmm:

Soo.. ive been playing this over xmas.

I do believe this is "The Game" for me, for quite awhile. This game is Epic, i wont play another RPG for quite some time.

You know the developers went through great pains when they develop an entire freaking language in both the spoken and written word.

I mean, really? Geez. yeah im hooked.

Yeah, I was telling some friends last week about how awesome it is, I mean the complexity involved... it really feels like a world where things happen and lives get lived that have nothing to do with what you as the main character are doing unless you choose to get involved, and then it's OOPS another quest added to your list which you can follow up on, or not.

Even the moral complexity is amazing to me, I've been in a couple situations where I had two choices to save my skin and both were, shall we say, equally repugnant. So I had to make a really difficult decision. It's so much more complicated than, "here's the bad guy, take him out and advance."

I just started a new game altho with more or less the same character type because I've decided that I want to join the Stormcloaks and do it earlier than what would have been possible with the first character I was playing. Altho it's hard to let her go as she'd leveled up quite a bit and has a lot of gold saved up. Mostly because I wanted to buy the house in Windhelm but apparently that's not possible without joining the rebels and (I presume) helping them win. Also because it appears to me that nothing is really going to happen with the civil war unless I choose to get involved so I might as well get in on that and get some experience from it.

Even that was a somewhat difficult decision, as I can see things from the perspectives of both sides of the conflict. A lot of the rebel Nords and their sympathizers seem to have a "Skyrim is for Nords only" thing going on, but I haven't seen any evidence of that from Ulfric himself so far. Whereas the Imperials may be less ethnocentric among the leadership in terms of integration of the different races, but they've allowed a bunch of snotty Elf supremacist thugs to openly persecute people for their religious practices.

In the end, my decision came down to this...

General Tullius (or whatever his name is): ordered me to be summarily executed simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Ulfric Stormcloak: OMG HAWT plus I really want that house in Windhlem.

:O:

I got the impression the Empire is all that stands between Skyrim and the Thalmor. It's nice if Ulfric wins his little rebellion, but is he going to be as succesfull keeping the Thalmor out? :hmmm:
