    8 or 9 for me, the world is great but it does get repetitive. I prefer fallout.

    Amazing game, 9.5 out of 10. I've only played the first hour of fallout 3 so can't comment on that.

    Would rate it about 8 out of 10 and no it's not better than Fallout 3

    10/10

    Difficult to split the two games. It's the same kind of format, set in entirely different worlds. Skyrim probably edges it for me, personally.

    10/10. Couldn't really get in to Fallout 3, thought Skyrim was miles better.

    Google it. There always walkthroughs if needed:50:


    Started this Skyrim last night, only played 45 minutes of it. A can tell straight away this is going to be an incredibly great journey:party048:

    But... A was only putting it on to see what it was like. I'm going to finish of my second play thorough of Fallout 3 before going back to it.

    You can find the book that lets you learn the spell randomly as loot throughout the world, and certain shops (probably the ones at the College of Winterhold) sell it as well.



    1. Probably about an 8 or a 9. The gameplay is good and its decently presented. The side-quests though aren't as good as Oblivion's.

    2. It's hard to say that one is objectively better than the other. If you aren't a big fan of fantasy, then you're probably going to enjoy Fallout more than you would the Elder Scrolls games.

    So no played this much as been to busy watching The Wire in my free time and this although good, hadn't really sucked me in. But now it has, been up since 6 this morning playing it.

    My wee guy is really weak and so is my companion. Am on my way up a mountain to find the Greybeards. And there this big * off Frost Troll. Really hard to beat, died about 25 times with no luck of defeating him yet:smiley-laughing002:

    This * is harder to kill than the Deathclaw from Fallout!:47:

    Go and do some side missions. Caves and stuff etc. Try and make your guy better, I didn't bother with the main quest for ages. I had too much fun doing side quests.

    Frost Trolls obviously has weakness to fire, if that might help you.

    I wish I still had Skyrim to play, the best game ever for me.

    T Bag, you should use the Steam Workshop to improve the game. I have "subscribed" to a few graphics enhancement and my game looks fantastic now. One guy made an enhancement mod for every city and they all look bad * now. Try not to go OTT though, some mods clash with each other and it can get weird....and avoid any mods with Russian writing...

    levelling up in this is the hardest part. A lot harder than something like Fallout as there a lot more to level up on its quite daunting:smiley-laughing002:

    I'm at level 8 what's the highest you can level up to?

    Also using the magic to kill is pish so far, a try it but it isn't powerful enough yet so quickly change to a weapon.
