Pretty sweet. But you know what the saddest thing is? This is the best TES news we've had since Shivering Isles. :P

Dammit, Vanir...... I had an awesome daydream of me and Anne Hathaway on a private island. And then in the daydream you came in and murdered her, then asking for my hand in marriage.

Wow, I've actually been wanting to play this for a while. This may even give me a little inspiration for the Vampire Prince.

Aye, dang my brother with his 12 hours of WOW; Lettuce beat me to the news. :P

I might get this, but I suppose it depends on if I can. Anyone who downloaded it, what is it like?
Possibly...

Quite similar to Arena, in game mechanics.

Teh money, I wasted it.

Weren't they always giving arguments as to why they couldn't release it for free? Why are those arguments suddenly invalid?

I can't remember what those arguments were, though.

Which, surprisingly, means anything is possible with Bethesda.

Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing...

Anyway, the download doesn't work for me. Anyone getting a similar problem? When I try to save the file, it finishes in like one second, after which if I try to open the file and it says it's broken. When I try to open it with a temporary download, the download doesn't even start.

Bethesda is offering no support for Daggerfall, either. Todd himself said they're releasing it "as is", without support. *rolles eyes*

Why would they offer support for a super old game? Arena was released the same way. I heard no one complaining then.

Gilboron, yea it seems to be a problem on the server side.

Here is a mirror.

Thanks Lettuce, that link worked for me, and I've already died a first time! Yay! I guess!

Daggerfall also reminds me of how the first computer RPGs were nothing more than tabletop RPGs computerized.

Hey, can someone help me with this? I used the dosbox for the install and everything else, but now I brought it down after I finished everything.

I put in everything else successfully, but then when I put in the cddagger and the dagger commands, it says they're illegal commands. Anyone know what my problem is?

EDIT: Nevermind, solved it. ;)

I would download it but apparently it would take nine hours or something ridiculous. I'm not sure I have the time, but I might give it a try.

Why the hell didn't I think of that?

Don't answer...

In the mean time, I'll just grab Arena. Yay for old skool games!
