Well, not to add anything to current arguments and try to straighten out my thread, have you guys seen the 1.8 Patch notes that pertain to a Solsthiem DLC? It looks like Dragon Riding, there are some hints at Hand to Hand and "Ballista Centurions". My thought is that this will be Dwemer Centurions armed with ballistas similar to the Dwemer Spheres with their crossbows.

What was your argument again?
The argument is that playing a pre-baked game with none of the vast amount of content offered by a modding community that's been pushing out new questlines, new items, weapons, armors, bosses, beasts and entire landmasses for the engine since Morrowind does not compare to playing the same game at 1080 native @ 60FPS with all the content goodness. Sure, you might have just gotten the chance to pay $20 for DLC that lets you build houses in Skyrim, but we've had a more robust version of that very same feature well before the DLC was even announced. Don't like the way dark elves look by default? Make 'em sexy with a skin mod, like I did. Don't like the fighting mechanics by default? Use a mod to turn it into an Arena/Daggerfall style drag-n-click-to-slash game. Best part is that it's totally free to do all this, and you're only kidding yourself if you buy the game on a console.

Now by all means, more power to you if all you have is a 360. But you have no ground to stand on if you argue that the 360 version is better than the PC version. This is not true for any game, and never will be.

It is mega legit.

Argonians are pretty fun, I played one for around 20 levels and enjoyed it more than I thought I would. If you want to do quests for or just hang with your people, check out the docks at Windhelm and Riften.Your starting strong points are sneak related(just in case you didn't know), so you will be well suited to the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood off the bat. However, the beauty of this game is that after ten levels or so your character can be molded to whatever you want. What platform are you on?

My main character is an Dark Elf rogue assasin. Specialized, light armor, one handed, sneak, archery, smithing, and enchanting. I get x30 multiplier w/ daggers while stealthed, which usually makes alot of one hit kills for me. He fights for the Storm cloaks and is the listener for the dark brotherhood. Killing does not bother him if he feels there is a gain to his cause or beliefs yet bullying and abuse of innocent people upset him. He has also help restore the thieves guild and is a nightingale of the night mother. My stealth is maxed out and i can almost stealth pass and through anything, even right in front of people some times.

I play as a demented serial killer Nord. He kills everything in sight, except for those invincible bratty children. There aren't too many things left alive in Skyrim these days...

So all that's going to be left is a bunch of kids in a magical realm of fantasy and adventure? And they're the only things you CAN'T kill? Dude, you're the villain in a children's cartoon.

For some reason I laughed uncontrollably for about a straight minute. I literally almost choked to death on nothing because of you.
