    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    Game » consists of 30 releases. Released Nov 11, 2011

    The fifth installment in Bethesda's Elder Scrolls franchise is set in the eponymous province of Skyrim, where the ancient threat of dragons, led by the sinister Alduin, is rising again to threaten all mortal races. Only the player, as the prophesied hero the Dovahkiin, can save the world from destruction.

    I wish the 12-hour thing was on the 12th

    And not just because I`d love the 11-11-11 v1.1 game marathon to be done on the 12th for 12 hours at 12pm, but because there is no way in hell I want to see someone else go through all that stuff before I experience it myself, but by the time that happens I wont have access to the video. What do you guys think?

    I agree. When I get the free time I'll be playing it myself.

    I do see the appeal though, it's not for me but each to their own.

    It would be nice, but you know Greg wants to play the game too, and I'm sure he doesn't want to wait an extra day to get his hands on the game.

    I'm just so busy on Thursday and Friday that I only will be able to watch bits and pieces of it. Hopefully the entire thing will be archived somewhere.

    I don't mind watching the 12 hour live stream before buying the game. For me its more about playing the game and not so much the story or any "spoilers" that may be seen during the live stream.

    Yeah, most people have, you know, work or school on Thursdays...
     
    But I wasn't going to watch it anyway. Skyrim doesn't really interest me.

    I don't really mind, I'll probably end up going through a large part of the game before I watch any of the marathon.

    No way. Then I would have to choose between playing the game and watching the stream. Plus I want something to do on Thursday to make the last bit of waiting for the game a little easier.

    Hopefully the thing will be archieved and one will be able to watch it later. In 12 hours one can spoil a lot of quests for oneself if one watches the marathon before playing the game.

    I really dont understand why people are willing to intentionally spoil the beginning of the game for themselves considering that it takes about 4 to 5 years to develop an elder scrolls game. Just wait a bit and play the game for a few hours. Then go and watch Greg play the game. That way you can also see the possible differences in the way that Greg handles the quests and experiences the game.
