    Other Dwemer ruins aren't though. Granted, that could just be an oversight; I'm sure if they bothered to include that detail, there was some implied meaning to it.

    However if they were planning to stick by that implication, it's odd that there are no ashes in any of the ruins in Skyrim. I know it's several centuries later, but some ruins haven't been disturbed since they were abandoned, so there should be some trace.


    I think you might be right about the seventh game though; the Dwemer were mentioned a lot more in Skyrim than they were in Oblivion, so they've familiarised a new generation with them. I would imagine they plan to capitalise on that.

    I'd love to be able to play Skyrim but I don't have a PS3 or XBOX 360. Is it true that you need some sort of download to even play it?

    You have the same laptop I do, and Skyrim runs quite well on mine. I'm even running 50+ mods on it with minimal issues.

    Just make sure you have a mouse. You can't play with the the touch pad.

    If possible, look into getting the Elder Scrolls Anthology. It has all five games with most of the add-ons.

    I got it for fifty bucks at Walmart, and I've seen it on sale even cheaper.

    Eeyup. Mine's an 80E3. Yours is newer, so it might actually be a little better than mine. I'm not sure when they started the 80E5s.

    Cool! Athough, I'm not sure what the specs on mine are. It all just sounds like numbers to me. XD

    What the hay?

    Those specs are pretty much the same as mine, and I can barely run Fallout 3, let alone Skyrim! :eek:

    What are some of the issues? Is it mostly just lag?

    Yeah, I basically have to either play it on the lowest possible graphics settings, or suffer such a slow frame rate that it looks like I'm watching a slideshow :I

    I'm fairly sure it's due to my laptop not having a proper graphics card though.

    Mares and gental colts, Bethesda has released the official trailer for Skyrim Remastered! The graphics have been vastly improved, The Legendary Edition DLCs are all in there and the console versions now have access to mods! This game is part of Bethesda's apology for ESO. This is bring hope for a new Elder Scrolls game in the next few years. Check out the video!

    This game is going to be available for Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC on October 28th, 2016!

    Damnit I've already spent enough money on games this year.
    plus I plan to spend more.

    This is a good year for games...

    What's the point?
    Just grab original Skyrim + DLC and get graphics mods if on PC.

    If there's a TES game to be remastered, Skyrim should be the last one in line.
