Thanks for the link .

Btw, I run my steam client pretty much every day and in the list of top sellers I am very certain I have seen Skyrim at no.1 since it's release.

Even today with Assassin's Creed Revelations now available Skyrim still holds the no1 spot, Revelations at no2.

Looks like Skyrim just went on sale (33% off) on steam.

Yep 33% off. I'm downloading it at the moment. Going to be interesting.... Never tried this game genre before.

S!

Skyrim was coded in some ancient code X87 or similar as one gamer pointed out on another forum so do not expect any drastic performance increases without big changes...

These Bethesda games are almost a whole genre by themselves, besides of course being rpgs. Very open world, pretty much all the freedom you want to evolve your character (the way you play is the way he grows) and play the game the way you want.

My advice, be patient, I remember the first Elder Scrolls game I played was Morrowind and I felt a bit overwhelmed by it.

Above all, take it slow and have fun.


And yes, it is a dx9 game, though there is a dx10 folder, maybe a future patch ? But performance wise I don't think anyone will complain, the game runs and looks rather beautifully.
