I also think any difficulty below Normal shouldn't exist, to be completely honest.
If that was the case, then people would just make "easy" be "normal", "normal" be "hard", "hard" be "insane", "insane" be "European Extreme", etc.

Fine by me.

Fallout and Skyrim are the kind of games I like to just kick back, relax and play on easy to kill time. If I'm proper in the mood I'd prorbably raise difficulty but most of the time I just enjoy it easy

What I'm saying is that they'd still be the same difficulty, just with different names.

And the point of having an "easy mode" is for people who are either bad at games or are new to the genre.

Not only do you have Vanilla, but you also have the worst port of the game.

Is it still the worst?... I would figure it would be all patched up by now.

Big Boss · October 06, 2015, 09:12:10 AM

Apart from loading screens, console Skyrim is fine to me.

I get that--I just think that's lame. If you're bad at the game, you shouldn't be able to progress until you, y'know, get better.

I guess if you don't give a shit about the game itself and you're more interested in the story or the... whatever, I guess that makes sense, but I'm just not that type of player, I guess. Never was.

but i've played it

i mean, i just don't really get it--what makes PS3 skyrim so bad that i should give a shit about

because if it boils down to some stupid shit, like, "oh, PS3 has frame skipping here and there"
then yeah, that's really not a big problem for me--certainly doesn't make it unplayable

Big Boss · October 06, 2015, 09:27:50 AM

Everyone bang on about how the PC version is superior due to mods and shit but eh that doesn't really make me care

Verbatim · October 06, 2015, 09:30:27 AM

well everyone knows how i feel about mods by now

GAMERG0D · October 06, 2015, 09:40:54 AM

not even the framerate or lack of mods, just the amount of glitches and crashes.

Verbatim · October 06, 2015, 09:46:41 AM

I think the game actually crashed once when my friend played it, but that was years ago.

don't forget to carry around plenty of fission batteries to keep your pip boy charged

Thing is, there is both of those things in/around Olney. And some pre-war Chinese dudes, IIRC.

The power-armour is a two edged sword though.

True, but special power armour is special power armour.
