I have crappy integrated sound on my mobo, and it still has spdif 5.1 optical and coax outs.

No, I believed the counter, not the BS I think I saw someone post about 3-4 days ago somewhere. Maybe I just misinterpreted the post idk.

So I saw somewhere someone mentioned the post count was around 200,000 for this thread, so is it or just 21,703ish like the counter says?

What people fail to realize about all of this is, yes the English ver. just past the 30 day mark, but the FIGS (French, Italian, German, and Spanish) ver. came out a week or two after, so for those the 30 days aren't up yet. And there was a link Scorch621 posted on page 6 in the Skyrim Nexus News thread (http://videogameswriter.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/bethesdas-pete-hines-says-not-so-fast.html) about what Pete Hines said about no news yet, the important part is the second part where he clarifies what he meant, "I was simply stating that expecting/demanding something today is unfounded. Not that news is never coming."

And Valve (Steam) agrees, here's a link to something that will blow your mind Valve: Steam for Linux Fueled by Windows 8 "Catastrophe" Sorry to be OT.

Good to know. bababooeybababooeybababooeybababooey Yeah that makes me sound like some nut job, I just meant a few fine works of art are better than a whole boatload of garbage imo.

Yeah I get where your coming from. You also didn't mention the potential for mod conflicts if they got sloppy with the dlc. However, I think most of the bugs noted in the console version would be fixed for the pc one. Its not like they built the dlc on the xbox then ported it over to pc, they built it on the pc and ported it to the consoles. Of course I am just being optimistic, even in the face of prior buggy dlc from Bethesda :P Actually they built it on a PC for the xbox, and then ported it back to PC and PS3. Another reason for the delay, is the PS3 skipped the 1.6 patch, that will be included in patch 1.7, which Dawnguard is supposed to be dependent on, according to internet here-say. And that the FIGS (French, Italian, German, and Spanish) ver.'s of Dawnguard came out a week or two after the English ver., there's a lot of speculation going on with not much credible info atm. What we do know is that we don't know. Here's a link http://www.gamepur.com/news/8686-pete-hine-skyrim-dawnguard-dlc-not-coming-ps3-and-pc-soon.html EDIT: I didn't mean for this post to sound like I was poking at the consoles, and thought nothing of it until re-reading this post, just sharing what I had seen about it.

AK-47 meh, the only real beauty in it's design is it'll still fire after it's been ran over by a TANK, oh yeah and you could buy one in a third-world country for $10. Now a Mauser that's the Swiss clock, or Ferrari of firearms, polygonal rifling, and nickel-stainless armor piercing bullets gives me a hard-on.

Using psb will give you the spells, but not the other elements of vampirism, like being in the vampire factoins (hidden stat), or having the undead flag set on your player character, so just guessing that the vampire perk tree would be left out also, unless you have vampirism (normally, or console commands). Idk about the Vampire Lord form part. The summon gargoil spell will most likely work if you can cast it as a normal spell or power with the shout button, if not idk.

I can' t agree u here, if he takes GTX560ti it will run every game (at the moment) on the market in ULTRA with ease. There are 1gb ver. and 2gb ver., the 1gb ver. may do that with vanilla games, but not with 2K textures. EDIT: Monitor resolution matters a lot too.

I played Oblivion and FO3 on xbox for too long before moving on to PC. I had at least 3 600 hour games of Oblivion (on xbox) and 1 around 250- 300 hour game of FO3 (xbox), I had actually skipped work a day here and there for Oblivion. Once I moved on to PC I spent more time modding than playing by far. I pretty much agree with all gsmanners said above, If I have 1 complaint about Skyrim it would be the lack of quest content compared to Oblivion, I have only around 300- 350 hours now with only 1 play through for Skyrim, and have gone through all the quest lines including most side quests in those too, except the Daedric ones, which I lack a little more than 1 left, I have left all the Divine ones though, and haven't done any more than required of the redundant fetch (radiant) quests. I do however look forward to Dawnguard though, because for the first time it looks like some thought was put into vampirism. If possible after the MQ (another play through) I will probably turn Delphine into a thrall (haha), and I look at it as, at least it's better than horse armor.

Mmmmmmn, makes me hungry.

And there I was thinking I ran everyone off for the ultimate win (not really).

Kinda wondered that too.

You tell Clavicus "hell no!" pretty much, it's in dialogue options. Here's a link. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:A_Daedra%27s_Best_Friend

Until around 4:00 am. central US time, then it picks up a bit.

Anyone have their Steam set to online? Technically the 30 day exclusivity is up, and If Dawnguard is, or is about to be released, I have some work to do removing my ~60 manually installed mods, updating, and installing mod utilities (Wrye Bash, BOSS, and NMM), ordering new video card, reinstalling higher res mods, then going bonkers installing all the other mods I've been watching. Ahh the to do list of love. So anyone know anything on when Dawnguard rolls out for PC?

While I'm thinking about it, how are the drivers for the AMD 7000 series coming along, mainly interested in single card info (cause my mobo).

I think I see a certain parallel between the random paragraph generator and Sherogorath, like Bethesda used it with their own limited dictionary and then tweaked it to make enough sense to get people through the quest lines, or just perhaps just wrote it to sound like the random generator, or whoever came up with the generator may have had a loose inspiration from Sheogorath, then again it could be some underlying universal coincidence.

I think it will bring more $ as ingots, but I'm not sure.

And about the rules, is it just random posts that are counted or any, if it's just random posts then I guess I've been wasting everyone's time with all my (few) posts.

What, there are rules for this record, yet no record yet recorded, if that's not some "If a tree falls in the forest" stuff...

Is this an object without color, or is this exactly what you see when this occurs always?

At quick glance, the only thing that might cause this is the thuumfollowers.esp may be conflicting in some way, if it's not a load order problem or something else.

Too bad someones bot probably wouldn't count, it could be there waaaay sooner.
