Then just play it or take it back? You read far too much into fantasy. I'm half expecting you to ask if killing NPCs in the game is okay because god says not to murder in the 10 commandments.

Hey, I don't know. I'm not exactly good in my faith for a lot of reasons so I don't know. I was going to avoid murdering in the game anyway.

And what are your thoughts on the leveling system being that you look to the stars to level up using constellations.

its just a pretty visual gimmick no worse then having your birth constellation effect your stats

that one is where the stars effect you with this your if anything affecting the stars

even the birth sign system seems like harmless magic just another fictional mechanic of the fictional world

If someone is so deluded about what is reality and what is fantasy that they are having this many problems in a video game. They probably should seriously contemplate professional assistance.

I know the game is fantasy and not reality. I know this isn't a Harry Potter world. I know this isn't a Narnia or Lord of the Rings world. Don't jump to conclusions.

Since I never specified you I have to assume there are reasons for your defensiveness.

I did feel like it was towards me. I'm sorry for being rude though.


Well either way I hope you enjoy the game. The sounds of Skyrim video on youtube was pretty neat btw everyone. If you are into the work behind the game stuff it's fantastic. The early part is all on the choir work done for the Elder Scrolls theme sung with Nord language.

I really liked the music in Oblivion. I totally forgot about that stuff! I'm excited to hear it. I hope I enjoy the game also and not let stuff bother me. I believe I'm OCD so once it's in my mind, it's stuck there. I'm a gamer and I just don't want to do wrong things you know.

i have a question of my own im going to buy skyrim tomorrow but should i wait to play it until after i figure out how to get the tv to recognize the hdmi connection to my playstation3

or should i just dive into it with non hd

Don't go non hd. Most games these days you'll never be able to read any of the text in the game because it's too blurry in non HD.

Hello, I know there's already a thread about this game but I have a question. In your opinion, will it be okay to play this game?

I was looking for answers about this game too because my son bought it & it made his sister uncomfortable. Bottom line is, it may not be a sin for everyone to play it, but if the Holy Spirit is convicting you not to play it, then I urge you to listen. If you have to ask if it is ok for you to play, then you already know the answer to your question. I don't know anything about the game, but my son stopped playing when I asked if it was inappropriate for his younger siblings. I am sure he will play it, but not when they are around. Just listen to the Holy Spirit. I regret it every time when I fail to do so.

Except there are many people who get this feeling needlessly because they don't understand it or they are simply so worried that they don't allow themselves to open up to things because of what it "could" be.
