1-2 Days left until the social life serial killer arrives depending on where you live and whatever special release events you may or may not attend. So to pass the time, why not share some of your thoughts. For those of you that are going to be acquiring said game, what is it that you are most looking forward to experiencing in the game?

As an extra question: When you are inevitably let loose into the world to do whatever it is your twisted brains desire... what is the first thing you're hoping to do?

I can't afford getting it at launch. :'(

I know that feel, bro. I know that feel.

Regardless of monies, the thing I'm mostly looking forward to is character creation. It's something I rather enjoy. Back in the days of Oblivion I would spend a lot of time perfecting my characters, a little OCD-ish at times, I suppose.
Looking forward to just randomly exploring the enviroment too. It's something I did in Morrowind, Oblivion and in the Fallout games. Never know what you might come across. Giant mudcrab anyone?

Also: This image will become relevant to most of us a few weeks after Skyrim's release...

I am so sorry!

There's no release junctions in my town so I just ordered online with 1 day shipping.

I'm looking forward to completing the Daedric Shrines, in Oblivion they were the best quests and the loot was the best aswell.

Mastering enchantment skill so I can add an effect to an already enchanted weapon, slaying my first dragon, joining the thieves guild, and finding out ridiculous bugs and glitches to exploit. And also hitting the level cap which is somewhere around 70 but who knows what it actually is.

My only sorrow is that they scrapped acrobatics, it was so useful to me and my favorite skill, and the only won that was useful when leveling to 250.

Like ****ing every thing!
Quests. All of them.
Skills. Master them.
Dragons. Kill them.
Women. Do them.

That feeling of first stepping foot into the world and spinning 360 degrees and thinking 'Wow, I could literally go anywhere right now.' Then freezing at the thought of it and wandering off to nearest town and spending hours going through the town stealing everything you can to sell. Then purchasing your first cool weapon and finding something to kill with it. Also looking forward to the first Dragon encounter and how epic some of them are going to be.
 
Definitely not looking forward to the hundreds of hours I'm going to pour into that game at the expense of my social life, schooling and self respect.
 
I'm probably going to pass out the second it arrives...

Once I've regained consciousness I think I'm most excited about just seeing the world for the first time. I tend to be rather overwhelmed the first few times I play a Bethesda rpg so just the opening cinematics will be enough to floor me.

Beyond that, just getting my first taste of how the Radiant Story system adapts to my utter ineptitude will be interesting...

EDIT: Oh, and ima gonna get me some freaky Argonian sex
 
Definitely looking forward the most to character customization and exploring the vast array of caverns and forests with my trusty companion. I'm honestly not sure what the first thing is I want to do in the game, probably read a damn book then run around in my underwear.

Going to the midnight opening today at Gamestop, but I really don't want to wait out in the freezing cold tonight with a bunch of goofballs... but.. it's Skryim.

Lots of craziness going on at the moment, fast-paced drama everywhere. Once it all settles down a bit and I can catch my breath, I'll sit down and play. I heard that modding tools were going to be included in the retail disc, and that has me very excited. Going to challenge myself to at least play for thirty minutes before opening up the modding tools.

I'm sure I read a few days ago on Pete Hines' twitter (can't find tweet at moment) that he said the Creation Kit isn't coming packaged with the game because they still have to iron out a few more things before they feel it's ready to be released. Said it should only be a few days after the 11th.
 
Theres a lot of things im looking foward to to be honest.
The main point im looking foward to is finding out even more lore about the TES universe. I loved reading all of the books and snippets of information in oblivion and by the looks of it they have gone all out with it on skyrim. Hopefully it contains a lot of backstory to the events of skyrim or in someway relates to Oblivion, Morrowind, Daggerfall or Arena.
