I updated to the 1.2 patch reflexively without checking to see if that was a dumb thing. It's an irreversible change, since at release they updated to 1.1. If you clear the patch, you go back to 1.0 and then the save games (at 1.1) won't load.
The game killer is that they've completely hosed resistances. Whether it's my Nord racial perk, resist gear, or potions, the game delivers full elemental damage. I cleared a cave with high level necromancers, but it soon became deathly serious. I don't mind the dungeon crawls... I can do that. But, without protection, an elder or ancient dragons breath is an almost instant kill.
So, I'm stuck waiting for patch 1.3.
That sucks. PC version? I haven't been running with resistances except to poison and disease on the Xbox version. Of course, the only real pain from the spellcasters are the damned hagravens so I just get into melee range with them as quickly as I can. And, of course, she only just now made it to level 32 so I've been taking it slow. =)
Conc> That video was hilarious. Poor Lydia. I had to agree with the guy after Lydia got stuck that it was probably for the best. Too funny.
Intolerant monkey.
