    Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    I haven't used any difficulty or balancing mods yet. wanted to wait for my 2nd playthrough before I do that(only recently got Skyrim). I have been slowly adding in mods over time though. mostly visual stuff like lighting, weather, and textures mods, plus I installed a new UI/menu mod that makes it more PC friendly along with a better favorites menu.

      If they claim they can get the "best" dlc content to play nice with PS3 then why can't they get smaller expansions to work? All a bunch bs to me and I won't believe it till I see it in the store.
      I've ran into tons of issues on the 360 side as well. I blame the engine.

        Realism...in a game about fighting dragons with magic. A wiccan prayer circle around a komodo dragon?

          Realism was the wrong word. It basically makes builds more viable, has the enemies actually scale difficulty realistically, and changes perks into useful things / adds more skill trees.

          I also use SkyUI, couldn't play this game without it.

            I got a new 360 today and it came with a download code for the full version of Skyrim. I played it a bit when it first came out and I don't really have the desire to play it again. If you want it, it's up for grabs. The only stipulation is that you've had to be a member for more than two years or that you are a supporter.

                  Man, just missed out, lol. Just picked up a 360 in a craigslist trade. Thinking about picking this up on the 360. I'm wondering if I'll be let down though after playing the PC version , without mods, etc.

                    It's still amazing for the 360. If you didn't use a ton of mods for the PC, then it's not a big deal. The graphics are a downgrade for sure, and if you are like me you use a bunch of mods on the PC version to change the cities and add more detail. I still like both versions, but I prefer PC for the mods alone.

                      SkyUI is what I use for the interface. luckily since I've only recently got Skyrim, I used it basically from the start of my Skyrim playing. I was annoyed by the game's interface very quickly and looked for a mod to fix it. SkyUI was a great find and can't imagine playing Skyrim without it, along with the categorized favorites menu mod. both of these are a must use mod for any PC user IMO.

                        I just won a free copy of this for pc. Now I can transfer my 360 save over and start playing again with mods.

                          So far I'm like Dragonborn a lot. I feel like every time out, Bethesda gets a little better in terms of story telling and NPC dialogue and characterization.

                          Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                            I laughed when I saw that Dawnguard won Best DLC at the VGA tonight. If only us PS3ers new what they were talking about.
