I'm actually more angry about how they teased us with the spears in the trailer, then in turns out they just function as arrows.

Yeah, the "riekling spears" were basically Bethesda cockslapping their fans for petty reasons. That and the "dragon riding"...ugh.

Why are you surprised... They did that kind of bait and switch since back in Oblivion. "Hey Shop I can own"

You can own shops through mods. pretty involved too. And build your own house mod is way better than hearthfire.

Sure and the mods sure do ease the sting of Bethesda's LIES!!! err wait it doesn't.

At least you can fix it and/or make it better with mods. Other companies that lie no fixing cause they hate supporting mods.

With that said. I feel they do it to console gamers on purpose knowing on PC it can be fixed or added. Heck skyrim on xbox360 and ps3 has so many bugs that break the game.  They money gouge console players too with dlcs that are better made by modders (but a lot of other companies do this too. And don't allow mods.)

Still wrong to do.

I am getting it to a playable state. But this mod compilation/overhaul looks amazing and adds so much stuff.

Am I the only person who thinks that mod makes it look LESS realistic?

Looks like that "Paint World" from Oblivion.

The thing that a lot of games seem to miss is that trees have shade under their base when they're clumped together. Bright ground texture shining out from there really breaks it. In vanilla Skyrim, the forest floor is pretty dark, so it looks okay, but that image does look a bit... Oblivion.

Actually, I dare say Oblivion's forests were the most beautiful part of the world!

[WillowLuman]

Yeah, but the bright ground is pretty noticeable in hindsight.

In some spots, especially up near weynon priory, but the forests down by bravil and whatever the most southern one is (god, I havent played Oblivion in years, my nostalgia is growing) are really quite beautiful!

whatever the most southern one is

The word you are looking for is Leyawiin, land of racist Nazi countesses (hint: remove the "o" and its STILL correct ) and the Knightly Orc.

Oblivion gave me nightmares. The characters looked worse than morrowind...giant blob like things. And same voice for all creeped me out. Like clones almost. Race mods did nothing to help.

Hated that game. Morrowind was awesome. Text gave it more lore flavor. I love skyrim too. Immersive NPCs is great. And characters aren't blobs.

Nope, I completely agree.  In addition to the already-mentioned shadow issue, the "thatch roof" looks like someone laid lines of dead sod across the roof without bothering to fix the spacing, the loss of resolution at a distance is really obvious (this is an engine restriction rather than texturepack issue, though), and though I'll admit that my eyesight tends to give me serious problems when trying to look at the sky on a sunny day, the way the sky looks around the mountains just feels "off" to me, though I can't quite quantify how.  I normally wouldn't be nearly that picky, but the picture is titled "Real Life or Skyrim", so...

I am guessing this one I posted a few days back

Looks better than the above then?

In Cyrodiil every woman is Wonder Woman.

Much better.
My main problem with the other one is that if I'm not mistaken, its considered "THE" realistic texture thing, and it just looks funky and like a step backward.

Leyawiin. Also, you meant Chorrol the first time

Wasn't Chorrol in the north-west?
