now you can really shout.

The elder trolls....

Why would anyone want that? It's so much faster and more intuitive with buttons. You have to pronounce the shout and then wait for your character to shout, instead of just pressing one simple button.

But at least they were smart enough not to waste resources on Kinect implementation before releasing the game. Unlike Bioware. Which is why ME3 feels so cheap compared to ME2. Waste of resources. Kill the damn Kinect it's f*ckin' useless.

Except you'd have to go into your menu, or even if you have it in your quick menu, search for it and equip it. That's hardly more than "just pressing one simple button." Voice commands are pretty practical for that.

[GTAvanja]

Oh, right. Consoles. It's still faster on my PC with a mouse and keyboard.

Not that I'll be getting kinect any time soon, but I hope there's a "GET OUT THE FRIGGIN DOORWAY BLITCH!" command for followers.

Sent Faendal home and taken Illia as my follwer. Poor sod, I got an archery slo-mo kill-cam on him yesterday, and I still can't stop laughing. We were in Fort Hraggstad clearing the bandits and we were down to the Bandit chief. After about 50 deaths, Faendal was fighting going toe-to-toe with the chief while I was shooting him. Then the slo-mo kicked in and I'm like, "Yay he's dead." Comes back to normal view and I got killed by the chief. WTF?

[*MURDOC*]

Is it temporary exclusive maybe?

Probably because they can't be stuffed testing on all the desktop configs.

That wouldn't make any sense. DLC will be just an add-on.

It is most likely just a timed exclusive. They talked about it in the past. Xbox 360 gets the DLC a month before everyone else. I don't know why. It's not like people will suddenly forget about their gaming system and go out and buy a 360 because of that. Not even if it was forever exclusive. People don't do these things. Not for one DLC for one game anyway. And not in this economy. Microsoft payed for timed exclusive for no f*ckin' reason. All they managed to do is piss us off.

[Themanwiththeplan]

It was the same for FO3 and FONV, the 360 got the DLC a couple of months before the PS3 (Not sure about the PC versions though.)

I'm against it.

[BCspeed34]

Could make for some epic trolling if you're watching a friend play. He's precariously walking the mountain cliffs, you come in shouting for whirlwind sprint. That or just keep yelling "load save".

Yeah, but it wouldn't surprise me. The one system runs on all systems isn't a very good test.

[SadisticOtters]

This game is a repetitive sh*tfest. Every f*cking time I go somewhere, there's a f*cking dragon. At first it's like, "Cool, a dragon". Then it's like, "LOL, another dragon, still cool.". After the 104th encounter with a dragon it just becomes a tedious f*cking thing to fight against. I mean how many f*cking times can I fast travel somewhere only to fight yet another dragon. You see how many times I've used the word "f*cking"? It still does not compete with the number of f*cking times that I've seen a f*cking dragon in under a play two hours.
I understand why frequent spawning of these beast may occur, it's to ensure that people can obtain enough bones and scales to make and improve dragon armor. However, this is not just every once in awhile in my game, this is every time I'm busy exploring or wanting to do something important in the game. For example, there's this quest where I have to stealthily kill everyone, but I was interupted by not one but two dragons. Not only can I not reload from my last save file, because the dragon will just respawn anyway, but it takes SO LONG just to kill these Elder dragons. I'm waiting like five minutes for this thing to land, just so I can hit it, just for it to fly again for five minutes. I know dragons fly and don't have general problem with that, but when it gets repetitive like this, it just annoys the hell out of me
I just hate when developers take a nice feature and whores it out like this. Rant over.
Maybe people might disagree with me and I am overreacting, on purpose, but there has to be a patch for this crap. It's not like I can fastravel with enemies nearby.

It could be the fast travel that's doing it. When one of my characters lived on Sarethi Farm, I would always be met by a dragon whenever I fast travelled there. When I went there on foot - no dragon.

You can play the game without dragons. You just have to not speak to the Jarl of Whiterun. On my last character before my current one, I played for about a month without seeing a dragon.

What's most annoying is they start depopulating the towns, so on this current character I dropped the difficulty down to novice when Morthal came under attack. After that I switched it back to master.

[Greasepalms]

fast-travel is your problem there.

I pretty much never FT and dragon encounters are rare even though I do enjoy fighting them.

[mrpain]

Definitely fast travel is the problem. I lost count at the number of times a dragon spawned right at Riverwood when I make a fast travel there. I mean, it's fun and all saving the small town from a wild beast, but come on, at least gimme some causalities or is the game telling me that everyone in the town is a Dragonborn? Even the dog?

[SadisticOtters]

Thanks guys for the advice and not flaming me. I really do love this game overall.
