Lolz... I'd never pay 60 dollars for what is essentially a dumbed down version of a dumbed version of a somewhat dumbed down but still alrightish version of an awesome upgrade of an okayish game.

Much less 150.

Unless it came with a blowjob from a fine looking gal.

200 bucks for that load of crap? That's my rent for a week.

So it's 207.58 USD for us over here, a mark up of $57 dollars.
Gotta love the ol' xenophobic "FUCK YOU" to anyone outside of the U.S.

Good thing I hate the series :3

it's unfair though
$149.99 (US), €149.99 (Europe), £129.99 (UK), and A$199.99
I MEAN 1$=/=1€
or where the marketing in bethesda dunces?
but thank god i'm not australian.
and twice thank god i'm not a collector edition madmen.
i had sworn to buy this game. but i would die rather than buy it for that price (europe being myself)

Because he hates the series.

Love & hate go hand to hand when it comes to picking in which threads you want to post in.

Pretty much.

Gotta have balance and cynical output otherwise when everything goes to shit theres nobody to lean back smugly and say "I told you so."
Or, if aforementioned product turned out to be the second coming of Jesus there needs to be a few pagans to whip around for a while.

I've only liked Daggerfall, so I can't say I like the 'series' either.

Well I tend to look at the recent Elderscrolls games as their own series since they've really changed so much about it.

I was enthralled by Daggerfall there for a bit but the controls really grinded on me after a while. I'm just so darn used to the mouse.
Personally I'm waiting for that DaggerfallXL mod to be updated a bit more, then I'll really have a crack at it.

What're you on about, Daggerfall has mouselook and controls pretty much identical to Mount&Blade (except it has six attack directions against M&B's four, on the minus side it makes no difference which one you use).

Oh not at all, they're actually very clever greedy fucks who rightly think gamers are dunces and will buy it for that price (which I assure you they will).

What? The diffect attack directions have different damage dealing amounts and accuracy. It's not a monsterous difference, but it is there.
