New Skyrim DLC

[Tempus]

Yes, many of them are very interesting.

Ah good I remember one funny book in Oblivion which was ostensibly about the relationship of an Argonian (or however it's spelled) maid and her master, but full of sexual innuendo. I can't recall, but the Argonian maid probably had some hilarious name like "cleans-on-all-fours" or "bends-over-easy" (maybe not that forthright, but whatever).

No, but you get more choice over your armour than in Fallout. You can equip boots/chestplate/pauldrons/helmets all separately. Plus there's a huge (and I mean huge) amount of clothing to choose from.

But... can you wear cloaks over armour?

Fallout 3 wasn't TES 4.5, so drawing those comparisons is pretty stupid

Having modded both Oblivion and FO3, I'd say they're pretty similar in many ways, although in terms of content there's obvious thematic differences. Most of the differences between the two are, in my opinion, cosmetic. Not that I'm denying functional differences like gun mechanics, of course. That being said, I wasn't being entirely serious

No one said you have to be in first person all the time. Hell, I spend a shit ton of time just panning the camera out admiring how badass and awesome my character looks. But when it comes to actually playing, 3rd person sucks. Combat is crap. Archery in 3rd person is practically impossible. Admittedly, 2 handed weapons in 3rd person is pretty cool, but apart from that you lose all the intensity of what makes the game so immersive. You miss out on the tactile interactions with the world and your enemies. The game just becomes like any other hack and slash adventure game, and less of an immersive, visceral RPG.

No one said you had to take my post seriously I don't really mind either. One game that had sweet first person was Republic Commando. I'd probably like Skyrim, but I promised myself I wouldn't buy any bottomless games again. (I actually made that decision after playing Empire: Total War for like a week and still not finishing the campaign... still, it was fun!)
