    If the creation kit works as well as it is shown above, than fair ****ing play to Bethesda and Steam. That looks incredibly easy, and really well designed. Hopefully, other games will use similar methods of releasing mods too.

    Mods are definitely one of the best thing about pc gaming. It would be great if they could get completed mods released for consoles.

    Although we'll still need Skyrim Nexus for all the nude mods :pac:

    The new scripting language could be very interesting, that was the bit that had me most excited. Mapping's all very well, but the really impressive stuff will doubtless come from coders hacking away at the script-base.
    We've already seen people cobble together a crude multiplayer version of the game - imagine what they'll do with the official tools.

    The first bit of modding I got into was for Morrowind. I remember learning the construction set by trial and error. When I added a door in the game world which accessed a room which I had created myself I was blown away! :D
    Can't wait to get back into with this.

    Complete.. as in including DLC's? You will be waiting a long time I think! I haven't heard anything about any official add-on's.

    That will give me 30 days to watch the hype die down and realize they're probably not worth it :p

    Can I get married to someone else without telling my wife or will I just kill her. Seen some other one walking around with a lovely pairs of tats and find that me and her could make it last if I could woo her.

    Lydia can feck off. ''I am sworn to carry your burdens.'' Sarcastic cow! I'm using the Riften housecarl now, Iona.

    Does anyone know where to get blacksmith/enchanting elixirs? I don't want to go down the alchemy road of collecting ingredients and all that. Will happily buy (steal) the elixirs instead of levelling up alchemy for good potions.

    So you can kill your wife and get another one? Has anyone tried this? I thought if you chopped her head off you'd just be a widower forever.

    I tried it and I couldn't remarry. Used console commands to get a new one. :)

    I'm a big fan of having Cicero as my follower. He might be annoying when you have to talk to him in the quests but what he says in battle is entertaining

    You elect not to kill him during the dark brotherhood quest. Obviously he must be alive :p He comes up to you when you leave the new sanctuary and asks to join you. You could probably find him in the sanctuary but I bumped into him outside of it . I think you have to have the dark brotherhood quests finished.

    Can't wait for the creation kit tomorrow. Do you think it'll be possible to make anything without programming experience? I'd love to make my own sprawling dungeon/cavern.

    Also there'll be a "surprise" with the the creation kit.
    For our Skyrim PC fans, the Creation Kit is on track for release on Tuesday. And, we also have a special surprise with it. #whatcoulditbe!?

    I'd say the surprise will be some content created on the creation kit, as a pre-built tutorial. Or something similar.

    And as far as i know, you can do loads without using the programming language built into it. I plan on trying a few things myself, as they are excellent tools. Not able to do the art or create items or anything, but designing some levels and quests sounds fun.
