The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

  • 200 years ago, the Champion of Cyrodil closed shut the jaws of Oblivion, just as the Elder Scrolls foretold. Now, in only a few days, The Dovahkiin will end the terror of the dragons and restore Skyrim to its glory.

    Can you believe that it is so close?

    Can you stand the anticipation?

    Can you bare to look at one more screenshot without going mad? 

    FUS

    I know this much, I have watched every video, looked at every screenshot, and read every blog about Skyrim since the day it was announced. Paul has done us a great service in combining all of these aspects into one great website, allowing us all to join forced to gain a better understanding of the land known as Skyrim.

    Can't you feel it?

    Can't you almost feel the dragon's breath?

    Can't you help but want to take out your sword and end the flying lizard's life?

    RO

    It's almost here. Skyrim is almost upon us. Bringing with it an entirely new landscape, completely alien to us, filled with new quests, new factions, new powers, and new enemies to slay. The Companions will allow you to become a fellow Shield-Brother. The Dark Brotherhood will allow you to become a deadly assassin. The College of Winterhold will allow you to perfect your spells.

    Can you wait another day?

    Can you feel Skyrim creeping up on you?

    Can you hear the sound of the grindstone as you sharpen your blade?

    DAH

    The time is almost upon us. Take up your arms, fellow Dovahkiin, fight for what you believe is right. As either a member of the Legion, or as a fellow Stormcloak, you can help restore Skyrim to her former glory. You can become the best warrior, mage, or combination that the world has ever known. You can do whatever you please.

    Welcome, Dragonborn. Welcome to Skyrim.


    I want you to post everything. All you hope for, all you want to see,all that you want back, everything you want to kill, and all you want to do in Skyrim, in this post.

    Yeah, @Tourniquet, me too. I really hope I haven't been hyping it up to such a point that nothing could ever match my expectations.

    Aww, L.A. Noire was such a bummer for me, Should definitely fill the gap before Skyrim though.
