Lotus97 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 When I tried to install the game I thought I was having the same problems as the people here, but it was just installing and updating a Steam account on my computer (since I don't have one). This took several minutes. I guess I should have been more patient. Now it just says "installing from disk" (only after I had to register a steam account).

wardmarshall Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I did all the steps as instructed but instead of installing from the disc it just opens Steam and makes me download...again. Grrr....I have Legendary Edition and Windows 8, not sure if that matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripple Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 (edited) I did all the steps as instructed but instead of installing from the disc it just opens Steam and makes me download...again. Grrr....I have Legendary Edition and Windows 8, not sure if that mattersThe DVD only contains the 'base files.' You still need to download the Steam client if you don't have it installed already, register and activate the game, and download the patches. The DVD version of Skyrim does not circumvent having to install Steam and download the patches, but it significantly reduces the files you need to download since the base game files will be installed from the DVD.

gvman3670 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I bought Skyrim for the XB360 the day it was released, and downloaded/bought each DLC the day it was released. I also bought it for PC on disc (and didn't activate a Steam account). I lost a lot in a house fire a while back (including my desktop and games) and got another copy of Skyrim on disc. Now I can't do anything with Steam at all without those jackwagons expecting me to actually BUY the game yet AGAIN! This is worse than piracy, it's corporate highway robbery in broad daylight. :mad: It's a shame. I've supported Bethesda for years by buying ALL their games, generally on their release dates. And even buying them for more than one platform in most cases. I won't be doing that anymore unless they break their ties with Steam. Steam can lick my sweaty balls and eat dog feces for all I care. :ohmy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 If you have a legitimate legal DVD then it will ask you to register the game the first time you run it. The entire game is NOT on that legal DVD and you need to download quite a bit from Steam. - In fact, it will probably download the entire game anyway to be sure you have all of it. From that point on, your game can be recovered from steam without the use of the DVD. You no longer OWN games, you buy a license to play them - typically on one device only. Beth has made Steam their exclusive ( for most of the world) agent for that license. If you bought the game through steam in the first place, it is automatically registered to your Steam account - and can not be lost. (unless you do something really dumb and get banned from steam) If you bought one of the bogus DVDs or a DVD copy that was already registered as many that are sold cheap on sites like ebay - then they have no way of knowing that you paid at all. How are they supposed to know that you bought a DVD and then neglected to register it? Do you really expect them to just believe you with all the pirated versions floating around?

stehinch Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Now on the 6th attempt, it froze on 1238/8827MB last time, and on about 1018 the time before, so each time i do this its slowly increasing the amount, maybe after about a 1000 trys I may finally be able to play, Now on 1337, it appears to have froze apart from the time remaining steadily increasing!!! grrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
