Should I buy Skyrim?

[QUOTE=Kaleidescoop;47585763]Should I buy Skyrim?[/QUOTE] legendary edition goes for 75% almost every steam sale. be patient.

[QUOTE=Kaleidescoop;47585763]Should I buy Skyrim?[/QUOTE] Yes, but don't forget to grab the debut pack mod bundle ! Only 26,68€ you can't miss such an offer !

all this aside, i am quite pleased to see this thread so busy

It's mostly because we saw this one before noticing the Steam one and figured the complaint should go here

It's fueled by pure RAGE, though. Not much better than the usual near-death. :p

[QUOTE=_Maverick_;47585785]all this aside, i am quite pleased to see this thread so busy[/QUOTE] I wish it was on a more positive note, though...

That's not to say people who don't even like Skyrim shouldn't be complaining though. If you don't complain now, they will spread to something you DO like. It reminds me of a certain poem: [quote]First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.[/quote]

The most perplexing thing is that currently, that follower mod costs more than Skyrim does right now.

3 different people have asked me today if I was going to charge for my follower that I'm working on [editline]23rd April 2015[/editline] what do people really think of me

so valve is cashing in on all their good will now?

[QUOTE=lintz;47585766]legendary edition goes for 75% almost every steam sale. be patient.[/QUOTE] Actually it's been 66% every time. I memorized the price of the last few major steam sales for Skyrim legendary and it has been $13.59, like it is now. Only the base game gets 75%, and the DLC gets 50%. Every damn time.

i think valve were trying to test the waters but valve didn't realise that we have shark fursonas

I actually used Arissa for a while. Wtf happened to her face? Why does she look like a default Imperial now?

Thinking back you have to be strongly retarded to buy a mod, as you don't support the author that much, you mainly support Bethesda and Valve. You're basically paying a tax, a paywall to access content. This is not a fucking donation as they're other parties involved. And as an author, you have to be retarded to sell a mod because you then become a part of the problem, transforming a hobby, done by passion in a problematic business, but you're also losing money, as a standard donation using a standard system wouldn't give you the total amount, instead of having some of "your" money being taken away by the greedy, sweaty palms of Beth and Valve.

150+ lines of dialogue i don't mean to brag but my follower currently has 177 lines of dialogue and he's not even halfway done yet

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;47585936]150+ lines of dialogue i don't mean to brag but my follower currently has 177 lines of dialogue and he's not even halfway done yet[/QUOTE] Yea, but do you have Ovaries?

[QUOTE=Vehk;47585887]I actually used Arissa for a while. Wtf happened to her face? Why does she look like a default Imperial now?[/QUOTE] Not sure about the facial details and skin, but Arissa was made using other people's work, like Apachii's hair and ZZJay's Wardrobe.

[QUOTE=Destroyox;47585943]Yea, but do you have Ovaries?[/QUOTE] i can give him a boipussi if that's what you're asking

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;47585950]i can give him a boipussi if that's what you're asking[/QUOTE] perfect

Skip to about 8 mins in that TotalBiscuit video, the first 8 mins is him talking about content creators and work and some noticeable bias about experiencing backlash from monetizing videos 8 min mark is where he starts tearing apart the implementation.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;47585936]150+ lines of dialogue i don't mean to brag but my follower currently has 177 lines of dialogue and he's not even halfway done yet[/QUOTE] Add an idle line making fun of a wench named Arissa, back in Cyrodiil, who charged an outrageous amount for her services.

i'm gonna go make some horse armor and charge $5 for it

[QUOTE=MegaJohnny;47586032]Add an idle line making fun of a wench named Arissa, back in Cyrodiil, who charged an outrageous amount for her services.[/QUOTE] I was actually thinking of inserting a line like this, but not referring to Arisaa. there's already a line in there referencing how he stole iron training swords and sold them for destruction tombs as a small child

Unless you can magically make the ai actually do interesting and unique stuff instead of acting like a retard.

I'm pretty sure Skywind [i]can't[/i] be monetized either cause Bethesda seems to hate the TESRenewal team, so that's good too.

it does say 600 total rip jesus it makes me incredibly jealous that that one follower mod has made $360 already and that one shadowscale armor has made $750 fucking incredible
