Looks pretty interesting. Not sure how the framerate will be compared to other systems though.

If it plays smoothly enough I might pick it up.

Why are you guys complaining? this opens up a door between bethesda and nintendo. not only that but Skyrim to go. without an internet connection required or a heavy or awkward laptop. and likely mod support which likely would be eating up space on your switch's sd card. still the graphics are decent fro a portable version.

As much as I like skyrim uhh ... who is going to buy this?

do they expect to sell millions with that?
It's a good way to gauge interest, at least. I'm probably not going to buy it for a fourth time, given that it lacks full mod support and the Special Edition has done nothing to fix the myriad engine bugs. But people have been clamoring for a real portable Elder Scrolls experience since even before the failed attempt to bring Oblivion to the PSP, and the average laptop certainly isn't nearly as portable or as smooth of an experience for Skyrim.

i've never bought skyrim new, only used for a few bucks. this will be my first full purchase. sad there won't be any mods for nude...coloured clothing *cough*. but hey, it'll be fun to lockpick with motion controls or something. i do enjoy shooting things with bow/arrow/motion control at the edge of range. it's fuuun.

EDIT: Whoops, already in the OP.

Anyway, judging by the trailer, it seems like the game will reach 60 fps in some instances.

Methinks docked 60 fps, undocked 30 fps. That's damn impressive for a console port.


To the haters, hate on :creep:
