Current consoles all support a keyboard, and a controller should be sufficient. This has already been proven to work.

If I find some I will, but nearly all was removed of it or when reuploaded is pulled off after about 10 minutes.

And yet... they aren't sold that way. I've tried MMOs on a console without a keyboard... fail.

And yet, the market is filled with many console games that come pre-packed with or required to have strange and expensive peripherals.

Somehow, cheap and simple keyboard and mouse are considered evil for console, yet people are buying plastic guitars and expensive Move and Kinect.

Actually people are complain about things like keyboard+mouse, kinect, wii-remote, and ps-move on console because they are too precise. Most people are happy with headset+mic and gamepad controller with auto-aim, yeah they call it aim-assist but we all know what it really is, aimbots ^^.

I think the only time I will actually talk will be in the morning when I am running around to get to the train on time. Other than that I would be too busy full screenan.

Bug, glitches, and overheating! Oh yay!

Despite the many game issues it'll suffer from I'm hoping it'll be a worthwhile game. Otherwise I don't see Bethesda managing that well otherwise. And, if it doesn't suffer from bugs than you can only imagine the praise its getting. Albeit only a pessimist would really consider that impossible since both Fallout 3 and New Vegas were on a clunky and obsolete game engine.

There will be bugs. But then so had Oblivion, Morrowind and Daggerfall. TES fans have learned to deal with it over the years. A price of open-world.

Spoiler for for previously denied subject in game:

They said no werewolves. They lied;

As I've recalled, they didn't deny the existence of Werewolves, they just never confirmed anything

But there were like enough hint--nudge-winks being thrown left and right

Mah, in any case I don't intend to become Vampire nor Werewolf, but they would provide some very interesting quests I would imagine

I am more interested in necromancy. It seems there is no official ban of it in Skyrim. Which made sense, as the entire soulstone mechanic had always been a little morally grey.

Let me rephrase that so it sounds less dickish: They'll be bugs but I hope they're worth it this time around. And if they're still around I hope they're minescule.

We've been wondering the same thing. I don't remember it ever being mentioned that Skyrim had a ban on any magick.

I'm also wondering about the population of Argonians and Khaajits in Skyrim. Not that many I'd think, since Elseweyr is in the exact opposite direction, below Cyrodil.

Im also interested in the black brotherhood. Ah, that was fun times. I love being an evil bastard in videogames and getting only short of a physical license to be one was too good to pass up.

No matter how buggy it is it still wouldn't be as bad as Daggerfall when it was first released. I am pretty sure in its initial form it was actually impossible to finish the main quest.

And yet, Daggerfall was worth it.

TES games had always been worth playing despite the flaws. Mostly because we haven't got any alternatives out there, really.

Any idea on what classes and role you guys will be playing?
On my first I am either going for Nord or Imperial shield and sword good guy.
Already planned out for my 2nd and 3rd that I will be a lawfully evil thief and a mage lastly

My goal is to kill from long range the entire game without being seen.

Dilemma after dilemma for me

After watching 300 I have a new found respect/interest in Shield Swordplay, but before that I had a thing for Dual wielding as well as sword-magic I suppose I'll figure out what works best for me as I play along, eventually there would be a pattern.

As for race, I've decided on a Breton but I hope I don't miss out too much because this feels like a Nord story, being set in their Homeland and all...

[Dist]

I haven't been following the info on Skyrim too much par the pictures and some gameplay.. How's the story in this? When I was looking to buy the Skyrim the shop preview said something about slaying the dragons as you're the only one capable of doing this..

So what, we have this very old and used cliche setting where you're saving the world cause no one else can? How is this going to go well if you make an evil character that kills everything in his path? Why would I want to save the world if I wanted to kill everyone?

So yeah, with that said, I'll be making two characters.. Or one, not sure if I can have the skills I want in one character. I like sneaking around and killing people in secret so an assassin type of character is nice. However I also love magic and hope it's actually destructive and worth of using in Skyrim.. So yeah, an assassin and mage, or '' mage assassin '' lmao.

[Aqua Knight]

I will make a sneaky archer assassin too.
btw how will you name your character?
