I probably won't get my gam 'til Monday... I guess that's what you get for insisting on having a physical copy in this day and age.

This game will unlock in approximately 1 day and 23 hours

Well, at game.co.uk, they dispatch so that your order shows up on the day of release, if it's pre-ordered.

So, I'm expecting it on Friday, lest there be HELL FIRE DEATH AND RUIN.

[Johuotar]

I preordered today, I'll pick it up on friday and play the hell out of it.

From what I've read, you can walk + talk with NPCs as they go about their daily routine. There's also been a promise of increased AI responsiveness and integrity, to make them feel more realistic.

If I can finally make friendships with people in-game that feel special, I'll be happy to settle down and go about village business.

I don't like the whole dragonshouts thing. Seems to "Godly" or "Overpowered" or "Special". What I like about TES beforehand, is that you start out as you start out - a prisoner, given freedom. You feel like just-another-civilian, who isn't above the law and expected to do anything.
Admittantly, I haven't read too much into the game, as to avoid ruining moments of "Holy shit, I can DO THAT?!", so I could be wrong in that the player starts out expected of things.


In other news... 38 hours to go.

Yeah, that's what I loved about Morrowind - you were neither special nor the first nerevarine. Also, a bitch used you.

I broke down and pre-ordered it, because it'd save me a couple bucks on Direct 2 Drive. It's almost done downloading on Steam.

I found this to be a little strange at times in the games, here you were the head of various guilds and organizations that were likely quite powerful, especially when put together. Yet no one thinks of you any differently. I would imagine that someone who could conceivably wield vast power (physical and political, and even being a god in the shivering isles) would be nearly untouchable.

You still start out as a prisoner, and you don't get to use the shouts anything approaching immediately. I think it's more along the lines of just happening to be one of the people able to fulfill the Nereverine prophecy like it was in morrowind. For all we know there have been a dozen dragon born who lived out their days in peace and contentment, or who were slaughtered before their time. *Shrug* It's possible that you're merely the first person to simultaneously fit the prophecy AND have the means to implement it.

and it might happen that you are a female argonian for a lust for female khajits.

"but there is one they fear...the LUSTY ARGONIAN MAID!!!" XD

[Draignean]

Precisely. Prophecy is occasionally problematic in its overwhelming lack of specificity.

"You know Uncle Crassius knows this already, but he just loves to hear you speak, dumpling"

[Comp112]

You are one of many dragon born, just as a heads up...

And your shouts? They are useful, but not even close to over powered.

[Soadreqm]

Eh, Azura benefited from the deal, but I wouldn't say she used the Nerevarine. I mean, someone would have had to deal with Dagoth Ur anyway. Orchestrating things so that that someone had the support of the people of Morrowind might have been self-serving, but it was also very much a good thing for everyone who wasn't a Sixth House member.

Sotha Sil would like to have a word with you...

It's hardly Azura's fault that Almalexia went crazy after she lost her divinity! Anyway, I don't think Ayem and Seth really have any right to complain after sitting flat on their butts for the entire game, not even bothering to help Vivec uphold the Ghostfence. If you don't like the way the Daedric Prince of Twilight is dealing with the threat of Red Mountain, then let's see you come up with your own plan that doesn't involve smashing up the Heart of Lorkhan.
