Skyrim

So yeah, I remember back when I first played Morrowind. Such a strange feeling, being so free in that world. Like a dream... and a game that never ended. So strange. I remember seeing the silt riders and feeling so completely out of my depth. Vivec, the city, was so beautiful, something I had never seen in any RPG before, whereas other found it caustrophobic I loved it. The books that you could read, the real books! I read all of Vivec verses, some Benegaria, it was all amazing. The story based on Hindu theology was completely unique, something I had yet to see. The look of the gods and the Daedra... the Golden Saints even. The way that the statues spoke through you. The haunting tapestry pictures of the Saint.

Oblivion came out afterwards. I was somewhat less in awe. I hated Oblivion (the place) hated going into the gates, the sooner I could get out the better. It was the start of Melisande's beginning though, the character I will keep for Skyrim. Her crime (the one that led her to be in prison and then to be executed, was drowning her uncle while they were on a boat together, for crimes he had commited to her and others). Of course i'll keep my tradition of being a firebolt mage, the fighting seems intresting.

Within these games however was always a profound loneliness, as I stated before. Your character completely alone in the world. Maybe it will change in Skyrim.

I have my problems with Skyrim. I fear it might only be for Xbox, the graphics are wonderful, so I fear that most PC's won't be able to run it. Also problems with moving the controls from xbox to pc. We had such problems with Oblivion before. We shall have to see.
