They are posting this like the game just came out for the first time and nobody knows.
Oh no.
Who told them the secret.
Just about everybody knows this by now on PC, even a friend of mine who doesn't bother with mods...
It's not like this is new in any way.
I remember when I achieved chim too, about 12 years ago.
Well done, PCgamer
Holy shit, a new tes game?
if you wanted to look for it you'd just look for it and find it
this is the most worthless thing to post
They linked to the Skyrim Wikia page for console reference instead of the UESP.
This is unforgivable.
"How to use Skyrim console commands to become a giant, a ghost, or a living god"
Also known as the shit that most people have been doing for a few years now when dicking around in Skyrim. :v:

Seriously, fuck Wikia.
Can we delete PCGamer now
holy shit they actually made this post
Good god, what happened to PCGamer?
Why does every new News bot we get always turn to shit after a couple months?
It's like 2011 all over again.

I really don't want it to be 2011 again guys.
I was personally glad that it took 2 of their most talented writers to repost an article from 5 years ago. Absolutely mindblowing work.
I dunno about y'all but i knew these from day 1 in 2011 cause half of them have been the same for over a fucking decade.

ever since oblivion(maybe morrowind?), the console commands are still exactly the same
[QUOTE=FalconKrunch;51282155]ever since oblivion(maybe morrowind?), the console commands are still exactly the same[/QUOTE]
I'm not sure about Morrowind since I remember it using different commands just for enabling god mode (tgm in Oblivion and Skyrim doesn't seem to work for Morrowind as an immediate example), but some of the console commands between Oblivion and Skyrim are not exactly the same (most of them do seem to be, but not all). For example, typing movetoqt and nothing else in Oblivion's console when you had an active quest would jump you straight to where your quest target was at, whereas doing so in Skyrim will throw an error unless you specifically type out a questID tag to go with it (example: movetoqt da01). There were a few other console commands that seemed to have their functionality revised a bit in Skyrim, but I can't remember what they are without looking them up.

I don't remember all of them but i know the coc teleport commands work across the board, just gotta type in the right cities.

Yeah, the coc commands definitely still work the exact same for the most part. It's just a few of the lesser-used commands that seemed to have been altered between Oblivion and Skyrim (with the only one I can immediately remember being the movetoqt command).

tgm works in morrowind though so that's not a good example but you are right regardless

Right, anything but 2016. Even 2012 was better and we had to deal with that whole apocalypse thing hanging over us.

Congratulations on being a perfect example of why Garry/the mod team shouldn't pay any attention to complaints from the users. Despite some shit articles like this PCGamer is still, on the whole, a better bot than that PCGamesN garbage ever was. People are making a big deal over a couple bad articles which is bound to happen over time with a big news site.

I think the problem is with game journalism as a whole. Their main objective is views and by that they need to crank out enough articles to do so. In what manner they achieve this puts emphasis in their ability to write.
Using PCGamesN as an example, they did occasionally crank out a mediocre article with a slew of a bunch of half assed ones. You'll run across the occasional article that is absolutely shit in quality.
PCGames pushesh out mostly mediocre articles. Some of them a great read. Some are a miracle they passed their editor.
This article is bait. You'll get that one snowflake that needs to know the console commands for that exact game otherwise they won't know where else to look. Sort of tossing them a curve ball, if you don't tell them it's a curve ball they'll get their dick stuck in a vending machine.
I understand why this article exists, I don't agree with it and it's completely unnecessary. I personally think the BBC technology bot needs to go since the BBC is still a corporation that uses smoke signals as it's main communications method.
