Who else is putting off buying Skyrim?

I've suddenly been busy this week so I'm still working on (and addicted to) Dark Souls. Then I really want to take an RPG break and buy BF3. That should last maybe a couple more weeks to do the campaign and a little MP, and then I might get Skyrim although I think Assassins' Creed is of higher priority on my list... mostly because it's the only game my girlfriend actually likes.
Also, waiting for reviews and some mods. I didn't like Oblivion much, but I do really like Fallout 3 and New Vegas so I'm kind of on the fence about Skyrim. On top of that, I don't exactly have the time or patience for any more 100 hour games. I find around 20-30hrs is my limit before taking a long break lol. (On my 3rd New Vegas break... almost... done... I'm a sidequest whore, though)

...It's funny, I've been living in my own place for two years now; I receive a fixed allowance from my parents while I study, and from that time I've had to manage my finances effectively, like a real grown-up has to ha ha...the funny part is, the only thing that's taught me any sort of fiscal responsibility is knowing what games are coming out and when 
...so yeah, I'm sorry but no, Im not putting this off, this has been worked out months in advance...Exams finish on the first, Uncharted 3 is the day after, Skyrim after that, Saints Row next, finished off with Assassin's Creed...
I love it when a plan comes together

I'm one of those special people who don't sacrifice their lives when they get a new game, and also don't need to wait for real life responsibilities to go away to enjoy them, because they never go away unless you're a child.
Im putting it off, but before you call BLASPHEMY. It's just because im currently raising money for a new gaming PC and I would like to wait until I get it to play Skyrim like its supposed to.

Thats two weeks of holding Skyrim but not able to play it oh wow....I am just...so sorry for you and your family during this tragedy...it's going to be all right...Doom-Slayer said:Lucky bastardDanny91 said:

I'm down to my last exam before my university degree and I'm likely to wrap it up in the next week or two, so no, I won't be putting off Skyrim. It WILL interfere with my graduation paper, but that's hardly something to be rushed anyway, so it's all good.
Yep! probably wont buy it until next year and i'll probably buy it second hand too, building a new PC at Xmas so Skyrim will be one of the first games I play on it.
hahaha wonderful post. and i will admit, video games = my financing management. if i have lots of games coming out soon? i'm living like a greedy bastard that saves every nickel and studies like a boss.Danny91 said:...It's funny, I've been living in my own place for two years now; I receive a fixed allowance from my parents while I study, and from that time I've had to manage my finances effectively, like a real grown-up has to ha ha...the funny part is, the only thing that's taught me any sort of fiscal responsibility is knowing what games are coming out and when

I am putting off buying Skyrim for a while. I put off Oblivion until just recently, and I bought the GOTY edition with the DLC.
I'll probably do the same for Skyrim because I'm not that big into Elder Scrolls. I'm sure it will be awesome, but I'll wait on it

Apart from flight sims (and a little minecraft), I've been off of gaming for quite a while. My 360 fried itself and I never replaced it.
But Skyrim, fucking hell I'm hyped! I know it will have limitations, which is why I'm playing on PC. I just recieved a new TV today so I can wire up my PC and enjoy it in 40" awesomeness.
I wasn't going to buy it at launch, but it was like a switch being flicked in my head one day, and all of a sudden I was really looking forward to it!

Yes. ;_;
I may buy it first day if I have all the relevant assignments in and am confident in the course material. I give it a 1% chance. Maybe I'll get it for Christmas.

Uhh...correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Skyrim developed for consoles?Fredvdp said:

Anyhooo....
I've decided to just go ahead and get the Collector's Edition. You can't take money with you anyway.
