It's January 26 and still no CK  :-[

THIS. Can you imagine the game we would be playing today if it came out packaged with release?

The annoying thing for me is that I can't work out if Modmanager will update the mods for you or know...

No you just have to look over in the right column and if it says it's out of date you just click on it and the website will pop up of the selected mod and you can d/l from there.

I take my concede defeat thing back. Mod manager is built for lazy people :P

People would start working on a nude mod without even playing the game :D

But yeah, mods what make Bethesda games enjoyable. Without mods, Skyrim feels... kinda bland and empty.

Buggy up the motherfucking ass jesus christ.

 Wasn't this game a little rushed to get released on 11/11/11? I would hate to see what would happen if they didn't cut development on the CK.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

Exactly. Bethesda and their majestic 11/11/11... They couldn't delay it. Delaying it after talking on and on about their release date would mean a big prestige (which is nonexistent for Bethesda) hit. That's why Skyrim was shipped broken.

Releasing broken games is like SOP these days isnt it?  Anybody at all shocked when a brand new game needs 3 patches to get it beyond bugsville?

Compound this with the flurry of bundles, regular steam sales and an increasing choice of options for the average, savvy gamer, I wonder what effect this will have on the medium to long term in the sales of new units?

Could turn in to a real issue, which of course is likely to be pinned on piracy.

I have it on my PC and my PC isn't that expensive. When I tell people the specs of my Computer they look at me and go... HOW YOU STILL START UP!?!?!?! Then I go onto Battlefield3 to American Servers and have nearly 300ping and get a KDR of something like 1:1.4 on the best of days. And People look at me going... HOW YOU DO THIS SHIT!?!?!?!?!? Then I go and do some Skyrim and run it on the highest graphics I can (Vanilla Wise, haven't even started refining it with Mods) and enjoy it in all its grandeur and I hold my head high and say, "Its cause I am Aussie..."

Skyrim really delivers visuals and performance on a low end rig. I'm constantly shocked how well it runs for people that don't have good machines.

BF3 on the other hand.....I had a decent machine for it,everything but the video card, and I couldn't play for more than 5 minutes before I'd get an OOM crash or something. It stuttered so bad even turning my mouse made the screen jerk. So kudos to you, for thumbing your nose at the hardware gods!

I know this is a little offtopic, but I'd rather not start a whole new topic - say I want to buy a meh computer that could run modern games at respectable FPS. What is the bare minimum I'll need to spend? Could I get anything useful with 500-600$?
