Skyrim 1.9 Legendary Patch Now Live on Steam
Skyrim Patch 1.9 is now live on Steam.
Skyrim Patch 1.9 which grants the legendary difficulty to grizzled Dragonborn veterans, has gone live on Steam.
Previously, the patch had only been available to those who opted into beta updates for the game.
The new patch, besides fixing a slew of bugs, also allows players to make skills that were maxed out at 100 legendary. The skill tree would essentially be "reset", and players could then re-level through a tree to gain perks and break through the level cap. The Legendary difficulty is analogous to Call of Duty's prestige mode, if you will.
Console players are going to have to wait just a little bit longer for the update. "For console players out there, we’re hoping to release 1.9 later this month," said Bethesda.

Have you played an Elder Scrolls game since Morrowind? Because that's exactly how the games still work. The only things that have changed are weapon skill consolidation (because having a different skill for 1h blunt, slashing, piercing, ad nauseum was just tedious) and perks that you have to spend points on, to force a specialization rather than simply giving them to you after you reached a certain skill level. It makes for a better game, and allows for a lot more granularity in specialization (especially among magic skills that were previously uninspired and lacking).
It's actually far better and more convenient than it ever was in Morrowind or Oblivion. You still get better at skills by using them, they removed some of the more redundant skills, and you no longer have to level up specific skills to raise your overall level or avoid leveling certain skills at certain times so you could get those level up multipliers higher.
Must suck going through life completely clueless.
I agree the magic skills were lacking but i dont use magic characters anyway. I actually liked the many different weapon skills rather than just the one handed or two handed available in skyrim, not to mention all the other skills. I really miss my Argonian with spear and medium armour. That is what i liked, you have your opinion, i have mine. It doesnt mean either of us are right or wrong. I completed the main quests in both Morrowind and Oblivion, i have yet to complete Skyrim as i got bored with it. Yes the simplicity of skills etc makes it less of a nice game and better for sales and the average joe, i just dont like it that way.
I'm totally with you dude.
I think its very simplistic now.
You REALLY deserve more likes...
Why do these SPAM hacks think that Tom's forums is filled with stupid Facebook type users.

NO idea... But there are so many, reporting them is getting me annoyed... Then again I am sure SOME people will fall for it.
Good luck with that... JUST COULD NOT GET THROUGH them... Too long between events.
20 years ago it was fun, but now it is simply sad...
and pause the game to drink health potions?
is it just me, or someone else fell that they dumb it down to an extremely low level?
but this is in part our fault, because we accept this by buying their crappy products.
we should never accept this again!

I tend to agree. Biggest problem its a direct console port.
