Post mods for pc gamers and post links to extra content. I hope your as excited as i am.

I for one can't wait to throw away any advancement into the story for massive exploration and dragon hunting.

Yes just yes.

Already preordered. Not sure if it'll ship on release day. 
 
My first character's going to be an Argonian spellsword, with perks in Destruction, One-Handed with a Sword emphasis, some Alteration and Illusion for good measure. I think I'll try to avoid potent healing spells the first time around, they always make things too easy. I'll probably end up making a Nord warrior with One-Handed axes and Block soon after. The archery overhaul has me interested in a thief character too.

I'm going to go with a nordic warrior. I can't wait to play this game i have been waiting for years for this release. Oblivion is still awesome though.

I've uninstalled Oblivion. It got to the point where I needed over 300 mods to keep me happy, so most of my time was spent in loading screens after crashes.
 
It's going to be great being able to play for more than half an hour at a time and without having to save every two minutes.

Mods are 1/2 the fun. Vanilla oblivion is still great though.

Ugh, this and D3. Is it PC upgrade time? I built it in 2004

I doubt Diablo 3 is demanding. Skyrim won't be much worse than Oblivion, if it's worse at all. Whatever you do salvage your hard drives. They're expensive right now.
