Skyrim Is Getting Kind of Absurd With Patch 1.5

Nothing I don't already have through mods.

GG Bethsoft.

Where's the Suplex mod?

Time to make Chris Benoit.

Decision to wait for the GOTY version continues to pay off.

But it's a free patch.

Because why not?!

Hang on, now patches get trailers?

Runaway inflation man.

Considering it's a patch, there's nothing to really get mad about, in my opinion.

^truth. i can't wait. Alos, if this was a Capcom or BioWare game, it would cost $10 to get this patch.

People whining about this have an incredible sense of entitlement.

This isn't the only thing they're adding you idiots; its a patch, not a content update. There's bound to be tons of fixes and the like. This is probably just something the animators did when they had nothing else to do after the game came out, that they added into the game. No need to freak out.

Cool, but can I turn them off?

The Killcams I mean, not the Suplexes

I've already put in 500 hours and I can't wait to try the new melee system.

You know what game already had suplexes? Saints Row the Third. That's why it was game of the year.

Yeah, killcams!

Cool.

But do they clean up those filthy women without having to need a patch?

@OriginalGman: Flagged your post, because it was TOO CORRECT.

Kill cam seems bad ass.

Kill cam is just annoying. Yeah it's kind of bad ass the first dozen times, but after watching the same 10 second recycled animations over and over and over, I wish there was a way to turn it off. At least you could in Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

This may actually get me to go back and play more Skyrim.

Wow GiantBomb talk about being late for the show

Now I finally have a reason to put some time in to my Khajiit unarmed alt.

Forgot how much I missed the kill cams from the Fallout games until seeing this. Wondering why the hell they took out the ranged kill cam from Skyrim at launch as it should have been there after all the Fallout work done. Time to go back in for more Skyrim to take a break from the stupid boss fights in ME3.

I have he full 1000 in Skyrim so these updates look completely pointless. Show me some DLC and we'll talk.

Same here. This is cool, but after 120+ hours, it's just not enough to go back without the promise of some DLC.

Seems like stuff that should have been in the game in the first place, but at least they added it. I also want Paralysis Runes, Seasonal Foliage, more follower commands, building your own home, new mounts, mounted combat and footprints in snow. Maybe they could also add stuff for the DLC like spears and new enemies like goblins and slimes.

Have they patched it so guys actually flinch when you hit them or do they just go "argh!" and their mouth moves?

Looking forward to performing a Skyplex!

Is that all they are adding or are there more features? Seems kind of small; Not that I'm ungrateful.

Can't wait to see the hand-to-hand killcams with a dragon!

This. And I think I turned off killcams after a third or so of Skyrim. I can see *thud, sllliiiiiccce* only so many times before it loses its impact.

I might just have to go back into Skyrim just to suplex some people.

Skyrim and Fallout have the worst framing for their killcams. Just look at the suplex: why is it centered on the lower half of the character's body? Most of the action happens off screen. Needs work.

Sorry Skyrim, without an autotune character you are still only the second best game of last year.

"Guys, we're still fixing our massively broken game! Here's a trailer with stuff!"

If it requires it's own trailer, my first thought with this game isn't to get excited, it's "this patch will need it's own patch" :(

Suplexes always make games better :P

As someone who has had no issues with bugs, and has yet to beat the game, I fully endorse and have no quibbles with this small addition to the game.

Looks really cool. <3

Hahaha! Very cool. Not a lot of meat to it, but looks GREAT.

Hahaha, that's awesome...SOLID ADDITION

When are they releasing the "good gameplay" patch?

Try to remember the basics of CQC, Dovahkiin.

That's it???

Nice!

Yes because killcams don't get old AT ALL. They could have gone and fixed one of the seventy-bajillion bugs in the game or even give it some DLC that makes it interesting but no.

Animators and programmers are not the same.

I was just getting ready to jump back into Skyrim, currently reading the Song of Ice and Fire series and I'm itching to slay some Dragons!

Gonna go fists only on my next character for sure now.

It would be AMAZING if they would fix my broken Mage College quest instead of adding suplexes.

Skyrim needs it's version of the mysterious stranger that shows up and does German suplexes on your enemies.
