people still play skyrim? damn. i played that game quite a lot - never enjoyed it once. the game has so much potential, but everytime it just shits on your face. and for some reason you go on, hoping that in the next area things will become fun. but they never do. it just keeps unloading their fury on your face. 4/10 would not recommend.

I don't know what you mean. Skyrim is a greats game. The biggest problem is not being able to play above 60fps because of physics issues (yeah, fuck dumbing down the game through catering to casual console peasants)
Aurani
Real men play their games on 9233 fps. :V
Zelda
Skyrim is a good game after you spend several hours installing mods to make it a finished product.
Trash Boat
Why would you want more than 60 fps? Does it seems "smoother" or something?
Aurani
12fps is where the fun's at.
B1rd
60fps is Skyrim and the cursor is feels laggy (which is something I really despise, that's why I bought a $600 GPU and still run most game on low...). Above that and it's completely responsive but buggy as hell. And since the game uses V-sync to control fps, it will be broken by default if you have a high refresh rate monitor and you have to do a lot of file tweaking to cap the fps.
Yoeri
Why do people talk about 60 fps like it's the new cool thing
Hasn't it been the standard for like 10 years
Zelda
The cursor feels laggy because of vsync, not because it runs at 60fps. It doesn't take a lot of file tweaking to fix this problem, just editing one little line in SkyrimPrefs.ini.
If you can be bothered to take 5 seconds to googe "fix skyrim laggy cursor", the first link describes how, even.

It just feels like a big, giant, epic world that lacks the most important element (for me) when it comes to RPGs. Character. There's litteraly not a single person in the entire realm of skyrim of which I can recall the name other than Ulfric because his name is in the one song that keeps going on and on and on and on in every single bloody inn I enter. I have tried to enjoy the game. But the story is weak, quests are weak, characters are weak. It just feels so weak. I think the witcher 2 just ruined skyrim for me. Even though the witcher had a lot of problems, probably more than skyrim, it had character. The quests meant something, you meant something. Everything you did changed everything around you. I don't have that in skyrim. I feel more like a tourist than an actual bloody dragonborn at times.

You think I didn't try that? I'm just remembering vague details of what happened since I've uninstalled Skyrim since then and it was a long time ago.

The fun part for me is the combat and making my character more powerful. The quests and characters are fairly weak, but you can use your imagination and roleplay to add depth to the shallow storyline. Personally I don't like RPG's where there's already have a predefined MC. You should try Morrowind, that was a lot more immersive, you actually had an effect on the world; it was the greatest thing to start as an 'outlander' where you were inherently disliked to being recognised as the reincarnated Nerevarine, basically the hero of Morrowind.

RPGs were fun when I was younger and had time, now they aren't, because they're all inherently just massive time sponges, regardless of the game itself.
I really pity those who actually took Skyrim as some kind of serious RPG, because like Glad said - it lacks everything that defines a good RPG, so the only thing you should do in it is play for shits and giggles. I'd also just add something which no one really seemed to have noticed in it - the fucking stupid as shit AI. The combat boils down to you either overpowering them so much that they can't do jack shit against you, or you exploiting their stupidity to beat them, I mean just look at the dragons and tell me they're "challenging". They're meant to pose a serious threat to you, so you can feel the story better, but all it boils down to is "lemme fly in a circle for 5 mins, and then come down so the MC can hit me better, since he obviously can't aim for shit and requires special help".

Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines was a good rpg.

So a guy with a sniper rifle is apparently targeting random houses at night in the part of the city across the river from where I live. Nah, totally not a problem letting a random fucking sniper running amok.

Skyrim is a proper role playing game, it's an open world where you are free to do whatever you want and roleplay however you want. The AI is stupid and you can easily make overpowered characters, this is so casual players can have fun with their god characters. But if you take care not to exploit the game or AI, the combat is very fun and challenging. Try being low level wood elf with just a sword and bow and trying to clear a bandit dungeon on Legendary difficult. The bandit leader can kill you in one to two hits and it takes you 100+ hits to kill him with a steel sword. Takes a bit of footwork.

I never said Skyrim wasn't an RPG - it just wasn't a very good one.
Also, our opinions on this may differ (it's purely subjective), but as someone who usually likes playing strategy games, I think that the AI should actually get "smarter" (the developers should work a bit more on it, as there is no excuse not to, especially when they're getting showered with money) as you up the difficulty, and not just get retarded bonuses to compensate for its stupidity. Now, it's mildly retarded if the AI can two-shot you, while you have to hit it 250 times with the same bloody bow and same arrows or with the same sword, just because it isn't "intelligent" enough to think of an optimal solution of how to counter you.
That would, of course, raise yet another problem - the combat itself is as flat as a 5 year-old girl's chest. Sure, you can't expect THAT much out of it, but why not? Why not just make it so that you have to think before you engage, just like in chess? It doesn't matter which direction you engage from, or what you hit, or even where you hit or with what you hit... it's just x amount of damage to that guy. Sneaking was supposed to add a layer of combat to actually make it feel more vibrant, but nope, it's also broken as shit. "Oh, someone just hit me in the fucking head with an arrow.... must be my imagination."

Aurani

B1rd
I'm not really complaining about that AI in Skyrim (ok, I guess you have a point about this), but it's a traditional straightforward RPG and not a strategy game where you should have to think heavily and plan your engagements. But If you want to play with that element you can play a stealth character where you have to observe your enemies and isolate them to kill them one by one. Or you can play a tank/dps where you can just mash attack and kill everything. Or you can play like me and play a light sword/bow class where you weaken enemies with the bow then finish them off with skilful swordplay. I've played a fair few melee combat games and I think Skyrim's is quite good and satisfying, it has a solid system of blocks, counters, dodges and shield bashes, and every enemy has a different attack patterns that you have to learn to read and counter. The beauty of Skyrim is that you can play it completely however you like.

Yup, you have a point there. You can play it however you like, but I guess I'm just jealous of all the people who are having fun with it, while I'm here sitting and fiddling my dick because I find the AI crucial to any single-player game, while everything else is just a bonus.

Yeah I don't really fit in with the loud abrasive drinking culture here very well, to say the least. I'd like to try Finland or Japan.

Anyway, early this morning I went on a nostalgic walk around where I used to live, to find they'd build a gargantuan 15 metre tall wire climbing frame (with a small cabin at the top with a long slide going all the way to the ground) at a park near my old residence. Is it weird for a 17 year old to want to play on playground equipment? If it is too bad becasue I did :p

a year ago i took a walk through the neighbourhood of my old school with an old schoolmate and we came across a playground we used to spend a lot of time at when we were skipping classes so we had a couple of swings on the swing. i was 22 then.

I've been reading about the "old internet" and it seems like a fun place to be (community/interaction wise).

My first internet was quite recent (6 years ago), but I already miss several things. Mainly the lack of ads and hidden software bundled with downloads. And the fact that Facebook was not everywhere like it is now. Social networks were already there, my classmates used some. I remembered being persuaded to make a friendster account on a weekly basis, but it was not as necessary as it is now.

I'm also kind of sad because I was not around when online names were a lot more common and acceptable (at least in this country). I really want to chat with my real life friends and acquaintances using names like piruchan, coconutmilk1234 or something like that without them going "dude, wtf?". I can comfortably do it with around 6 people or so, but most would go batshit insane when I'm not using my real name.

Oh Dial-up... how I miss you.
No, I actually don't, I remember a good lad I knew having the normal connection, while I had to use Dial-up due to the sheer expensiveness of the (at the time) new, faster connection. I go to Google, type in something I want and then go and read a book or go out and play while it's loading. Yes, the pages took SO.GODDAMN.MUCH to load you had to focus on a completely different task until it finishes.

Porn? Pff, the true greatness lies in buying DVDs and then exchanging the ones you haven't seen with your friends. I still remember seeing some movie where the guy robs the place and the girl is like "ye, I could tell the police about it, or you fuck me here and now". What kind of bullshit script is that? If that was the case, I would be robbing houses every day. :V

It was actually a perfect day on St Patrick's day.
I was off from work and class was in the morning.
It was 70° outside(after weeks of 40° to 10°), it was just cloudy enough to let some sunshine in but have plenty of shade, and it was pleasantly breezy.
Ended up going outside for once and got a bunch of Magic stuff.
Spent the whole day going through it all and playing games with friends.
I was aiming for Temur but I got Dromoka and Daghatar so yeah Abzan.
It was a very rare day that was seized, throttled, and wrapped up with a bow.

Now this Friday is supposed to be 40° with snow/rain mix.
I'm not sure how that is supposed to work.

Being busy all the time is depressing.

Boat, sometimes you make me want to invade Argentina and find you, and rape you without protection.

Also, today was such a lucky day... didn't do anything productive, got annoyed at a few people's decisions, had a terrible fight with a friend, and as a cherry on top, an ex had to enter the building I live in right at the same time as me, so she now knows where I fucking live.
