Has anyone played it on a PC yet? I hear it's very buggy. Is it really bad?

Oblivion had a couple bugs and pieces, but nothing that was intolerable. I find most of Bethesda's games are nicer to play with a mouse and keyboard anywho /ageold PC-console debate

I heard there was a bug where your mount would disappear and you'd fall to your death...

Going down that route, too, but it seems they've really nerfed conjuration (which was always the best magic skill imo). Only 3 bound weapons, no bound armor, less summonable combat creatures. I went into it thinking I could do like in oblivion where I wouldn't have to worry about collecting armor and weapons for myself, I could just conjure em.

i remember the devs saying they're leaving some bugs in on purpose, i bet this is one of them.

I play on PC, very few bugs, some I'm not even sure are unspecific to me, IE: my horse can run up almost vertical surfaces

Loving this game. I am about 10 hours in and have only done about 13 quests. I've been exploring quite a bit and clearing out some dungeons and stuff. Currently I am trying to get my smithing skill up so I can make the dragon armour so I'm laying off questing for a while longer.

just to let you know i found this out, when you go in a dungeon the monsters etc are level locked to whatever level you are when you enter

I thinks thats always the case with elder scrolls games, so certain enemies are too strong early on in the game.

nah just this one
oblivion was the first with the level scaling bs (which thankfully is gone on the overworld)
this one if you go into a dungeon at level 5 and come back at level 10 the enemies will still be level 5

I've been out of videogames for a little bit recently (too much boozing, martial arts, uni work, girl)

but this game honestly looks sick from what I've been seeing. I aint got a decent pc to play it on though. Still any good on PS3?

i like having the pc version for graphics and mods, but yea the vanilla game itself is well worth it

the only real gripes i have is the UI is way too consolized
still no combat on horseback (ala mount and blade)

Yup. It's still pretty buggy, stumbled across 2 myself. They got a bigger patch on the way soon.
