Video Games Elder Scrolls V - Page 65

**Fire Me Boy!** · 06-20-2009, 11:58 AM

So the guys at Bethesda let it slip a few months ago that Elder Scrolls V was in the works for 2010, and a friend said he read a possible release in 2009... I'm looking for the article, but I'm friggin' STOKED about a new Elder Scrolls game coming out in the next 12-18 months!!!

I think they can learn a lot with the successes and failures of their previous landmark releases like Morrowind, Oblivion and Fallout 3 and make ESV an absolute KICK ASS game!

Clay, if you ever do pick up a console, get Red Dead Redemption.

Best single player experience I've ever had.

What's so funny about that?

In fact, I wish Skyrim used horses the same way RDR did.

I finally bought a horse and then killed it because it moved no faster than I did.

Wrong. Horses can gallop. And they are far better at climbing mountains.

I just did a test.

I ran from a sign near Whiterun Stables to the nearest farm.

On foot it took me 25.0 seconds.

On my horse it took me 23.5 seconds.

If you don't believe me try it for yourself.

I'm wearing Archmages robes, btw. Not sure if that's considered Light Armor or not.

Did you press the gallop button for the horse? There are three different speeds for a horse.

In any case they are worth riding for the mountain climbing alone.

There's also a faster horses mod.

I used the sprint button. What is the gallop button for the horse? The same as the sprint button right?

Yeah.

Anyway, you should ride horses for roleplaying purposes. BUT YOU WOULDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT, WOULD YOU CONSOLE WHORE?

**Buck** · 11-24-2011, 04:23 PM

Yeah, well you know what is stupid, I can't shoot arrows or use my ****ing destruction spells while riding a horse.

RDR was all over that. Plus your horse had a clear stamina meter.

Ummm because projected stats are always good indicators. That will never happen. Get that hypothetical bull out of here.

I'm curious how they expect console growth to halt when it's been growing at approximately the same pace as PC sales. Especially considering we're in the 5th-6th year of the current generation consoles, with new ones coming out in 2012-13...

Branden Albert's Huge Balls · 11-24-2011, 06:40 PM

Because consoles are for maggots.

I like the precision that comes with using a mouse over a hand-held controller. That's the main reason I prefer the PC.
