    So I have had the WORST performance in this game with a beast of a machine. The auto detect always put me at max everytime and changing everything to low made fuck all difference. Turns out, the 360 controller option is enabled be default and fucked my performance. Seems a lot of people had the same issue as me. So simple yet so annoying!

    Fuckin' PC gamers.

    Thing is though, it's one of the most immersive and atmospheric games I've played in ages. Everything contributes, including the sound and music which is really great! Feels like a huge world and I actually want to play it more and explore. I honestly don't think it's an ugly game, have I got some super awesome graphics setting enable that you guys forgot to tick in the menu?

    No options to assign equipment/spells to 1-9 keys, afaik, either.

    You can! Once your favourites menu is up you can assign stuff to 1-9 by simply pressing the corresponding key when the item is highlighted.

    One other thing I'm really disappointed about with Skyrim, is the fact that the only way to know where to go is to follow your quest marker. I turned off the compass and quest markers because I wanted a really immersive game and wanted to ask people for directions whenever I wanted to find someone/something. Morrowind did this, why can't it be in Skyrim?

    Also, there is no way to pull a 'dialogue history' with characters. One guy wanted me to fetch him some Argonian Ale, and when I went back to ask him where it was, he just said 'got that ale yet?' and I was completely clueless as to where to go. I opened up the journal, expecting there to be a 'history' feature there, but it's really vague and simple.

    I'm honestly really confused. I haven't found an ugly part of the game yet.. The one thing I'd call close to being 'less than beautiful' are the large open landscapes without any trees, where you can see tiling textures on walls etc. Apart from that, fantastic.

    Menu fucking sucks though. And key binding sucks too. I used the arrow keys and rebinded everything around the arrow keys, and I still have to press tab to go back, and the bind instructions still show the default binds so I have to blindly press my new bindings until I get the right function.

    ? Just curious.

    I got killed three times in a row trying to avoid doing exactly that. It helps that at least they're shooting at you, instead of having their back turned, completely innocent and oblivious. A bad fight instead of an outright murder.

    your NPC teammate discovers that they're fighting Russians and flips the fuck out at the consequences and implications of that.

    Oh do you mean the 'Holy, FUCKING, SHIT!' guy? He reminded me of this video:

    ..but i respect other people's hard work and property...

    ...which is why I'm getting the soundtrack when it's released properly because Elder Scrolls is one of my favourite series of games of ALL TIME...

    I need to stop talking about Skyrim at work, I think Pontus is gonna end up stabbing me before the end of the day.

    Any of you guys listened to the soundtrack yet? It seems there are ten times the amount of tracks than in morrowind/oblivion, and a lot of the soundtrack uses little motifs from the two previous games.. It sounds incredible so far. Can only listen to a few leaked on youtube though
