@ Gopher

Hey, I am quite a fan of both the current playthrough you are doing, and the mod sanctuary series.

I thought I would tell you 'why'.

Firstly, the impression I get - is that you are an articulate individual, you have a pleasant sounding voice - which is the reason I am fan at all (I would have stopped listening after a few seconds had you sounded like a.. well.. punk). If I was to guess, I would say a profession you have had - or have, is linked to writing articles. This amalgamation of attributes separates you from the other video series - all of which I respect, due to the general skyrim mod-supporting community being exceptional.

While they cover a wide range of mods, the frequent focus is often on skimpy armour sets and things that don't 'fit' in the world of skyrim. I don't personally care all that much about the lore being honoured, what I do care about is dragon ball z hair in my skyrim, or bouncing breasts. Out of my game strange unfitting hair and self-communicating woman parts. (Actually, I don't mind woman parts, I just don't think we need an unlimited supply of mods on the subject).

Back to point - - - You take fancy with 'little things', like birds, architecture, clouds, pretty shiny objects, and you respect the smaller details leading to a spectacular whole. Since oblivion I have been much the same way. This is a world we are forming by holding united hands, and while I appreciate mods like 'swearing mudcrabs', I'll never install such a thing. Gaming is immersion, humour should stem from that immersion, not from 'stalker clown' masks that shoot lettuce husks at children.

Also, I take dibs on that idea.

What I don't see you covering a lot of - is the newly released gameplay overhauls. Such as skre, and ACE - as some recent examples. As far as I am concerned, those add to the world in a suitable way - making that immersion factor even greater. I think they would be hard to cover, and it would take quite a bit of effort - considering how much effort you must already put into editing those videos together and posting them so regularly however - I don't think it's behind your reach.

Anyway, great job. I don't really see any reason to watch anyone else. You get it right.

Oh, I just saw the latest episode of the playthrough and you brought up installing one of the overhauls in that! good stuff.

I hope dawnguard does come out soonish.

This comment was intended for the BOSS tutorial video. Wrong place, sorry!

@whitespider Dawnguard is supposed to hit PC and PS3 on the 26th

@Gopher

This is completely random, and doesn't quite have anything to do with this video, but clicking play on all of your videos on the home page of the Nexus creates an interesting cacophony of speech, like a room full of you. It's quite entertaining.

@Trollman20: There is no guarantee that it will, in fact it is highly unlikely that it will, especially not before the 1.7 patch is out of beta, and that only just went into beta a couple of days ago. Just because exclusivity is up doesn't mean immediate release.

thank you again Gopher, a pleasure as always...Take care

Dawnguard not comming out on any system exept xbox, just found out, they have no plans of ever releasing it on pc or ps3, im never buying another game from microbethesda. ever again. bethesda has decided to completely abandoned pc, i just broke my skyrim cd in half took it outside and burned it.

Pete Hines, the VP of PR and Marketing for Bethesda tweeted earlier today that they "have not announced Dawnguard for any other platform, nor given a timeline for any such news.

@Playstationandatarimaster
Even if they don't release Dawngaurd, granted taht sucks, the pc comunity still has its mods and creation kit. Someone could make "dlc" for us. The playstation people are the ones who are abandoned.
