Though as I think about the words, I do believe he meant pheasants.
We might as well shoot the pleb for trespassing.
Oh how long has been the last jolly hunting.
Chop-chop, Jeeves. Bring me my rifle.

The downside of using the laptop in the living room? I must suffer a mexican telenovela on the telly. I'm pretty sure high schoolers have better acting skills, but far less perfect cheekbones.

I have ultimately made the decision to slow down my activity in the forums, probably for good this time. However I will still (on occasion) hang out in certain threads such as this one, and in the subforums too.
Sorry,but with all this tension the GOG forums just aren't as fun as they used to be. When I first signed up, it was all welcoming and classy. I never thought other forums were as nice as this one. This was my go to place for discussion about everything gaming.... but now, unfortunately, with the recent turn of events, things have changed. Now I'm starting to post in other forums more often, soon probably more often than this one. That's because I'm just not having as much fun here anymore.
On the bright side I do have a nice DRM-free backlog here, almost all of which I have downloaded, so I can get busy with that. There's also threads like this, which do a good job of preserving whatever is left of all the light-heartedness that used to be all over in this community. So again, I can still hang out in here (and in the Hermit Cave too, unless the chimp decides to close that thread), and have fun with the games I've accumulated.
Anyways..... I've done enough rambling for now.....

Have you played Morrowind or Oblivion?
Personally... I couldn't get into Skyrim, it was missing something that I can't put my finger on (heart? :-p) and I got bored after a while, but I know that most people love it. It is a massive world with plenty of content, and a metric pluckton of mods for everything you can imagine.
I'd say it's worth a try for just about anyone who likes open-world games. I didn't even care for it much, but spent about 17 hours playing it, which I consider my money's worth. (Most people I know have spent hundreds of hours or more playing it.)
It goes on sale pretty often. If you are interested, I'd suggest waiting not-too-long to find it for 66-75% off.

Funny you mentioned Oblivion. i have the GOTY edition but have only been able to play it with EVERYTHING turned way down so I'm super jazzed to get a crack at it with new specs. The one thing all ES games have in common, even the older ones, is that their landscapes are so beautiful and on a shit computer you lose all of that.
BTW I might be asking A LOT questions like this. Just looking at the library here I've never been able to play Witcher, Saints Row, Sacred 2, just to name a few, until now (or whenever the computer gets here), so I might get kind of annoying asking about them .:P

Understandable. I know the feeling. That's why I only hang out in this thread since it started. I still feel that warm, welcoming, classy, friendly feeling here.
Hope you'll continue to at least hang out in this thread a little :-)
*squishes the living hell out of the Blob* :-p

I didn't like the clumsy combat system, nor the directionless wandering when I was dropped right into the middle of it, and worst of all the faces creeped me too much to keep playing.
I however, loved Fallout 3.

Mexican telenovela bikinis... I thought those kinds of boobs only existed in depraved drawings.
