He slipped in Zelda: OOT's "Song of Storms" into his guitar solo. That was slick.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

So, I started (but never saved) a Skyrim file while bored at my friend's pace yesterday.

After forgetting the abominable Elder Scrolls interface for a time and escaping the dragon Godzilla with that stormcloak guy, I proceeded to freely roam the countryside while heading towards the arrow marker thing that was apparently telling me the only place of importance to me right now. I was leaping from rock to rock . . . and then I died.

From a moderate-looking jump at best.

As a supposedly-agile cat.

Later, my friend discovered that he could kill an entire line of people (imperials escorting a prisoner in the night) simply by yelling at them off a shallow incline. (He didn't want to kill the prisoner, so he reloaded.)

Conclusion: gravity in Skyrim takes no prisoners.

I wear full heavy armor, and took the perk "cushioned" to waive 50% of the damage i would normally incur from jumping off cliffs. I'm pretty safe now, just doing huge leaps off balconies and large cliffs. And yes, I have found a cliff that's too alrge for that 50% cushion...

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

1.5 is now live on Live. on PSN later today.



Seems like the ranged kill cam only triggers on occasion and only if you stick to first person. The change to underwater effect is incredibly good. Its blurry enough to seem like you're looking around underwater, but no longer so obscured you can't see shit down there.

Skyrim adds Kinect support for 'more than 200' voice commands | Joystiq

That's hilarious and kindof awesome.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

I almost instantly considered getting a Kinect when I heard this was a free update to Skyrim.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

There's already a few mods doing this on PC, which is where they got the idea from anyway.

I watched the video detailing the Kinect support. It's looks pretty damn awesome. The shout thing is neat but I am not memorizing a fake language... but the other voice commands they included really seem to make Skyrim more streamlined. The commands you can use with your followers look awesome. Also the quick change for your equipment would really be welcome. The sorting of your inventory in various ways also appealed to me as I am a Skyrim Hoarder.

I'm too into Dark Souls atm to get back into Skyrim but I can't wait. Especially cuz I'm moving in with my gf and she's got a Kinect.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Was making a "Pauper" Commander deck for Magic (I'd go in to more details on my recent MTG kick in a new thread if so desired), and I just ordered most of the cards necessary yesterday.

Of course, just as soon as I saw that this was a thing, it was basically an auto-include for the lulz.
