So at first they said they were going to release it Quarter 1 of '06(December-January I think) now they're saying Quarter 2 of '06(February-April as I recall) I have to say I'm not too happy about that. But I guess the game is done when it's done, better to have a complete, playable game than a bug-ridden pile of crap!

It was supposed to be a launch title.. i'm quite dissapointed as i currently have a pre order on it from awhile ago.

Look on the bright side. Now it has less of a chance of being as bugged as Morrowind.
BTW: Q1 is Jan-March, Q2 April-June, Q3 July-September, Q4 October-December. I think it´s that anyway.

When a company comes out and says which quarter they're going to release a piece of software in, it'll actually come out 2 quarters later.

Mouse (or "Ian T") must be chewing nervously on his diaper right now.

From the looks of the videos, this game might persuade me to actually get into the RPG genre. I have never gotten into an RPG--- the last one I played was Star Wars KOTOR, and I was thankful for the pause in action before a battle

I heard it's supposedly 150+ hours to complete the game(including all mini quests etc).. Dont know the validity, but this is what i heard.

I heard the main storyline should take about 25 hours to complete(developper interview somewhere)

I also heard that Morrowind sucked... no wait, I learned that one from playing it. Talk about the most boring game in the world...
it's right up there with Halo 2 and Pokemon TGC for the GB

I'll give you some toast
My BLOG really sucks...

Don't get your hopes up, Daggerfall had 3 years worth of patches to correct the bugs!

Morrowind had over 300 hours of gameplay with both expansion packs.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it is what you think it is. But I do agree with you slightly because you need a fair chunk of patience to play any Elder Scrolls game, more so then most other games!

Why do you think Sega has one of the worst track records for sticking to release dates?

I'm looking forward to Oblivion, and with our recent graphics card upgrade I think my system will be able to handle it.

Don't look at me like that!
You're just jealous because the voices are talking to me!
