2:07 PM - [Alpha]Nails: How is it so far?
2:08 PM - [Alpha]Nails: do you recommend it?
Feuerschwanz is now Online.
2:26 PM - Feuerschwanz: Sorry about that, was doing some errands outside of Skyrim
2:27 PM - Feuerschwanz: It's very visually appealing and the gameplay is a lot different from Oblivion as far as leveling up goes (though I've only done it once)
2:27 PM - [Alpha]Nails: nO STREss
2:27 PM - [Alpha]Nails: is the combaT WOODEN
2:27 PM - Feuerschwanz: The environment is welcoming and inviting, the story grips yo uthe second you start, and the feeling of adventure hits you nearly as soon as you start
2:28 PM - Feuerschwanz: Didn't seem like it
2:28 PM - Feuerschwanz: It's a little wooden when you're attacking archers (at least the first couple ones, not sure about any others)
2:28 PM - Feuerschwanz: I got in a fight outside and the damn guy was upon me and not giving me breathing room
2:29 PM - [Alpha]Nails: that sounds hopeful
2:29 PM - Feuerschwanz: only issue is the controls and mouse sensitivty
2:29 PM - Feuerschwanz: Gotta crank it up
2:29 PM - Feuerschwanz: and the 360 Controller option is enabled by default, booo
2:29 PM - Feuerschwanz: I had to tweak my ini settings to actually get good sensitivity
2:29 PM - [Alpha]Nails: Not good
2:29 PM - Feuerschwanz: my belief: if I go from one edge of the mousepad to the other, that better at LEAST be a 360 turn
2:29 PM - Feuerschwanz: not 90 degrees
2:29 PM - [Alpha]Nails: Agreed
2:30 PM - Feuerschwanz: I like it
2:30 PM - Feuerschwanz: though I like just abou tanything
2:30 PM - Feuerschwanz: but I like it
2:30 PM - [Alpha]Nails: you Tart
2:30 PM - Feuerschwanz: hah
2:30 PM - Feuerschwanz: It *feels* better than Oblivion
2:30 PM - Feuerschwanz: and not just on the visual range
2:31 PM - Feuerschwanz: It definitely has a console UI feel, which I'm sure will be fixed (as is with the sensitivity bug)
2:31 PM - [Alpha]Nails: Fallout and Obl. are the same engine?
2:31 PM - Feuerschwanz: yep
2:31 PM - [Alpha]Nails: Fallout 3
2:31 PM - Feuerschwanz: This is a different engine, thank god
2:31 PM - [Alpha]Nails: That would have been a dealbreaker for me
2:31 PM - Feuerschwanz: If you have a bow, you can punch when you "block", so that might keep combat with archers interesting
2:31 PM - [Alpha]Nails: still, I will wait for a bit
2:31 PM - Feuerschwanz: good idea
2:32 PM - Feuerschwanz: I'll tell you what I like probably the most
2:32 PM - Feuerschwanz: I'm seeing a lack of "invisible walls"
2:32 PM - [Alpha]Nails: YES!!!!
2:32 PM - Feuerschwanz: I see mountains that I want to climb, forests I want to run through
2:32 PM - [Alpha]Nails: Rage was full of them
2:32 PM - Feuerschwanz: This game screams "adventure time biznatch"
2:32 PM - Feuerschwanz: Haven't played that yet, it any good?
2:33 PM - [Alpha]Nails: Linear but the combat is awesome
2:33 PM - Feuerschwanz: (actually, scratch that idea about invisible walls, I haven't hit borders quite yet, so I'm not sure.. but I was able to scale down a mountain…)
2:33 PM - [Alpha]Nails: the driving is fun too via the physics
2:33 PM - [Alpha]Nails: althoug I prefer mouse steering rather that wasd
2:33 PM - Feuerschwanz: *nod*
2:34 PM - Feuerschwanz: Hrmm.. don't see yourself when looking down, that's a shame :/
2:35 PM - Feuerschwanz: haha, oh yeh
2:36 PM - Feuerschwanz: you can dual wield
2:36 PM - Feuerschwanz: spells, weapons
2:36 PM - Feuerschwanz: have a sword and spell ready, or two swords, or two spells
2:36 PM - Feuerschwanz: well, the same spell but with both hands

Shyfted One is optimistic…

2:22 PM - Skyrim needs to download faster: It's awesome
2:23 PM - [Alpha]Nails: you haven't even played it yet!
2:23 PM - Skyrim needs to download faster: So?

Oddbob/BobZero…

2:53 PM - [Alpha]Nails: Are you happy?
2:54 PM - Oddbob: Yes?
2:54 PM - Oddbob: No?
2:54 PM - Oddbob: I don't know the right answer.
2:54 PM - [Alpha]Nails: I admire your conviction
2:58 PM - Oddbob: Thank you
