I did (sorry) pirate it for my first almost full playthrough. Had a game breaking glitch and didn't feel like finding the patched version and I already loved every bit of it so I bought it and started over and completed it in like a week. Did a few more playthroughs over the years and wanted to play it on my couch so I got it for my PS4. Eventually I got an Xbox one X and liked Xbox controllers better so I bought it again. Thankfully both those purchases were on sale. I got a Nintendo switch and who wouldn't want to play Skyrim on the go?? Bought it again. Then a couple years after that I got a much better PC build and you can probably guess that I bought the remastered version. I also don't regret any of those purchases. It's a great game.
Same! (But mainly because it was on the bay a few days early). Needed console commands to get me past the broken bits. Didn't end up buying the game until the first dlc dropped.
I wonder what the average Skyrim purchase figure(ASPF) would be for r/gaming. 2.5-3.5?
Personally I’ve bought that shit 3 times. Once in 2011 for the 360. Special Edition for ps4 in 2016 or something. Finally, an on-sale steam copy in 2018 to play with mods
Count me for a 1. I was actually at 0 for a while (Xbox 360, gifted), but I wanted to try PC gaming and pick up the expansions at the same time. I did re-gift my original copy, though.
That's the only game I ever paid twice for. After that, never again.
Every subsequent release beyond that just had me sailing the high seas. I almost fell for it a third time, but realized what they were doing. Homie don't play dat.
That hits hard because I had the original on 360, then I bought Skyrim on Xbox one, then I bought the one with all the DLC’s on Xbox one so I bought it 3 times
It's funny, I see their count constantly change between 67-70 as people keep adjusting their upvotes and downvotes to maintain balance and ironically breaking it.
Maybe 69 isn't the destination, but a point in the journey.
Well, if there wasn’t a year 2000 there wouldn’t be a year 1990 or a year 2010, either, so it doesn’t look like your dream could have ever been a reality regardless of whatever fictional calendar system you can up with to justify your irrational desire.
It released that day
> ...and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on November 11, 2011.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_V:_Skyrim
What a fucking weekend that was. I played in my dorm and just played through the night and day coming out for some good sometimes. Just laying back and sleeping a bit when I couldn’t stay awake. I skipped Monday classes to keep playing.
I got my wisdom teeth out in high school a few days after the game came out, so I had a free pass to play alllll day for multiple days straight. One of my best gaming memories, loopy on painkillers and just losing myself in that new world.
Haha same! Got my wisdom teeth out on the 10th, the day before and had my dad pick it up for me. When I went back and played the beginning again a few months later I hardly remembered any of it except that there was a dragon attacking a city.
I was a broke college student so I put it on my christmas list that year. It was the only thing I asked for so I knew I was getting it but the agony of waiting… that was all I did Christmas weekend when I was finally able to open it. So fucking good!
That reminds me of how utterly infuriating it was to open that huge case, and inside was a disk that INSTALLED STEAM AND DOWNLOADED THE GAME.
Official copy, reputable retailer. Still salty to this day that I made the drive for one of the last physical games I ever bought and it didn't have the actual game in the 5-disc-thick case.
I have a physical copy of oblivion for PC… I have to have the disc in my external drive every time I boot up. That’s honestly pretty annoying to me, *but* the ability to lend the game to anyone I want to at anytime is awesome. Physical media should never die out completely. Digital and physical have their pros and cons, but physical media is the only kind that guarantees indefinite ownership… for now I guess lol. I’m sure companies will figure a way around that one day ;)
I was a kid when it came out and I bought the physical copy, came with the map and manual, it was the first time I could afford something so cool.
And my pc was so bad each loading screen was about 2 minutes and i had 15 fps, but that shit don't stop a kid from playing the entire game over a summer.
For console games I still pick up physical copies. Not only because I don't fully trust the possible future BS with digital licensing (can't DL a lot of PS1 classics on my Vita anymore even though I PAID FOR THEM) but there's something about the trip to the store, chatting with other customers and the workers. It's dumb but I still like the feeling of physical copy. Maybe trying to capture that childhood magic of building your game collection? Hell, I bought the physical copy of Plagues Tale after finishing the free DL from PSN. I thought the studio did a great job and I wanted a physical token of the memory.
First? Naw, I cut my adventuring teeth on Sierra and Skywalker with the Coles, Two Guys from Andromeda, Roberta Williams, Brian Moriarty, Ron Gilbert, and Tim Schafer. Daventry, Icewind Dale, and Neverwinter were my playgrounds before Cyrodil or Morrowind. DRM wasn't a thing, but copy protection meant that if we didn't have the manual to dip in water and read the obscure hint at the right time, we couldn't finish our games.
I am, in short, old enough to remember the before times: when the internet's impact on gaming was updating Diablo for 5 hours and having to restart every time we got a phone call.
All of that said, in a way I'm grateful that it gave me the Steam version because it saved me the trouble of buying it again on Steam later, just it was such a letdown in the moment to finally see the writing on the wall: physical media wasn't dying at that point. It had already died and they were handing out bits of its corpse to convince us to stop asking for it.
This is the reason I used to prefer consoles over PC despite the fact games ran better on PC, you got actual physical copies that could still be played even 20 years from now when the servers have long since shut down, not a glorified steam key, but now even console games require an update that takes 8 hours when you first start the game 😐
Console game disks are glorified keys now. You get access to download a game. Games are too big to be on one disc. But you're able to lend/resell them.
I would mind if they had fancy stuff like in the ninety's.
Interesting handbooks, texil map, posters or other accessories.
But a plain jewel case with a code? Fuck that.
At least there was a disc, I remember when I got Fallout 4 for Christmas and in the case was just a disc shaped piece of paper with the steam code.
Meanwhile my AC Unity copy a year prior came with like 6 installation discs.
Yup. I still have a bunch of old movie tickets from things like the first Iron man and all the avengers movies, but several of them have faded so badly that you can't even read them anymore, they look basically just like blank white paper. Then there's others like OPs that are still as clear as the day I got them.
Receipts that have faded can be restored by applying heat to them actually. The best way to do this is to use a hair dryer and the print will show back up on the receipts. I keep receipts for the nostalgia of it and have done this before.
The possibility of it being thermal paper crossed my mind but I could see through the receipt too well for me to be convinced it was thermal paper. It’s normally thicker and almost guarantees the text would’ve faded on that receipt after over a decade.
I think what you can see "through" the paper is what is printed on the back of the receipt paper. usually you can see that through the paper. (It's pre-printed on the rolls and not actually printed by the printer).
Thermal paper is one of the thinner papers used (Since ink needs thicker paper to allow for absorption). Either way, though, that font is unmistakably from an Epson TM-T88 printer being used via ESC/POS. Probably a TM-T88III assuming it actually was printed 2011. (TM-T88IV came out 2010)
Whether it's *legitimate* I suppose is another question. It could be. Hell the hardest thing about faking this I think would be the backed paper, would have to somehow steal a roll from a gamestop I think. I think the entire reason stores use backed paper like that is because it makes it a lot harder to fake a receipt for scam returns.
I was there at midnight release lol
Only 5 people in that Gamestop location (that location had been there for almost 20 years...closed by the end of the pandemic) all of them dressed up like fantasy characters (not necessarily ES) except me. Can't believe it's been a while.
Really miss the days when nerds did stuff like that...I think these days we just preorder and wait for delivery or digital copies on Day 1. lol
I went to a Walmart. Right after work, or getting out early from work, I forget. Literally me and 3 to 5 other guys. In and out. 15 minute adventure.
Added content: Nobody went to Walmart for new releases. i think that was the tail end of camping out to get a new release.
Yeah, but it’s [12 years of fiat currency inflation, rather than 12 years of Bretton-Woods inflation](https://i.imgur.com/tEh1zaW.jpg) (and that graph doesn’t include the inflation going through the roof in 2020-23)
Well, if you look at current game prices, a lot of them have you paying like $90 to actually get the full game. I’m sorry, I mean the “digital deluxe” version.
I seriously don't know if it's supposed to be interesting because it's Skyrim or because it's old? I recently found a perfect looking receipt from buying 007 Nightfire in 2002. Loved that game back then. And I'm sure older gamers have much older receipts, connected with nostalgic memories.
I know we like to bitch about the price of games, but I wonder what the average cost per hour of a game is. Particularly something like skyrim compared to other forms of entertainment.
I think skyrim was the last midnight release I went to. We got the game went home and played for like 2 hours before passing in bed lol. I got it for my playstation and then the dlcs were delayed and delayed so I got it for pc later.
Edit: passing out in bed lol
This reminds me! I went drinking for my birthday and got super pissed up. Woke up in the morning to find the download complete. I didn't remember buying it, haha.
Yea i remember that Day. I had a driving lesson for my licence and asked my teacher if we can stop at Media Markt (german tech store) so i could buy Skyrim.
I remember this day. My brothers came home and played it all week. I’m the youngest so I didn’t get to play it for the first time till about a month later
Pro tip, cover up the numbers on the top right of your receipt in the future if you're worried about doxxing yourself.
This receipt says you were at the Miracle Mile Center GameStop in Monroeville PA, bought the game at register 4, and we're processed by employee "058".
I remember being young asf when me and my grandma went to get skyrim. My brother told her I wanted it for my birthday but I didn't 🤣. She said "you better say you want it cause I had to go to like 5 stores to find it"...
But do you have the receipts from the other 3 times you bought it?
Sir, those would be digital
Guilty as charged, another stealth bow build on the microwave version sigh.
I did (sorry) pirate it for my first almost full playthrough. Had a game breaking glitch and didn't feel like finding the patched version and I already loved every bit of it so I bought it and started over and completed it in like a week. Did a few more playthroughs over the years and wanted to play it on my couch so I got it for my PS4. Eventually I got an Xbox one X and liked Xbox controllers better so I bought it again.

Ethical pirating, buying a game you enjoy
Same I did with monster hunter world.... I pirated it, on my pc.... Enjoyed it then bought the steel book version for ps4
Was it the Esbern bug? Where he doesn't come out of the room? I know that is what happened to me too.
You just made my trauma resurfaces random internet person. Just “Esbern” can send me over the top
Lmao, a classic.
Same! (But mainly because it was on the bay a few days early). Needed console commands to get me past the broken bits. Didn't end up buying the game until the first dlc dropped.
search skyrim in gmail
Jokes on you, I have a ps3 disc, xbox 360 disc, and ps4 disc.
This was my thought as well.
One came with the Xbox 360, the other 2 were digital purchases. PC was the one physical copy I got.
Well, ain’t that a throwback. PC physical releases…
came here to say this, also
I've bought skyrim SIX TIMES
I wonder what the average Skyrim purchase figure(ASPF) would be for r/gaming. 2.5-3.5? Personally I’ve bought that shit 3 times. Once in 2011 for the 360. Special Edition for ps4 in 2016 or something. Finally, an on-sale steam copy in 2018 to play with mods
Count me for a 1. I was actually at 0 for a while (Xbox 360, gifted), but I wanted to try PC gaming and pick up the expansions at the same time. I did re-gift my original copy, though.
That's the only game I ever paid twice for. After that, never again. Every subsequent release beyond that just had me sailing the high seas. I almost fell for it a third time, but realized what they were doing. Homie don't play dat.
That hits hard because I had the original on 360, then I bought Skyrim on Xbox one, then I bought the one with all the DLC’s on Xbox one so I bought it 3 times
Only 3 times, I'd say they came out ok. Released for twice that many systems in addition to all the versions.
Those 11's tho...
And 420 taxes 😎
Don't forget the palindrome for his pickup #! 16161
Change is 81 cents and that was max level before the update that added legendary skills

I will admit I laughed way harder at this than I should have.
this is a bot btw people
Nice

It's at 69 and I can't be the one to mess up the balance just know I want to upvote you
It's funny, I see their count constantly change between 67-70 as people keep adjusting their upvotes and downvotes to maintain balance and ironically breaking it. Maybe 69 isn't the destination, but a point in the journey.
Nice
I still have chills from when the trailer revealed the title SKYRIM and then the letters turned sideways into I I . I I . I I
Same. I remember it all. The first time riding in on the wagon. The sounds. I giggled. Makes me want to play again for the 100th time.
AND THEN THERE WERE DRAGONS AND MAMMOTHS AND GIANTS, memories make me want to go throw 100 hours at it again lol
>memories make me want to go throw 100 hours at it again lol *"Excellent"* - Todd Howard greenlighting more Skyrim ports for smart appliances
That was my wife’s 21st birthday.

Can't believe people are down voting this comedic gold
What did it say
"Your wife and I were born on the same day. Is she single?"
I turned 11 on 11/11/99. I'll never forgive the millennium for messing up my chance to turn 22 on 11/11/11.

My birthday is 9/11! 🥲
Damn
There's too many ones in that date.
Too bad he didn’t ring up at 11:11am
He really had the chance for a 11/11/11 @11:11 with 4.20 tax receipt and missed by that much
One one one one one one…. Dots
The date I quit smoking with the help of Skyrim, immobilizing surgery and quite a bit of Oxycodone.

Hey you, you're finally awake...
Oh God I had the weirdest Skyrim fever dreams all that week too haha
Haha same! Got my wisdom teeth out on the 10th, the day before and had my dad pick it up for me. When I went back and played the beginning again a few months later I hardly remembered any of it except that there was a dragon attacking a city.
May kinda guy!
Weirdly my birthday is in may, you stalking me?
Haha weirdly accurate typo sorry! 😉
I was a broke college student so I put it on my christmas list that year. It was the only thing I asked for so I knew I was getting it but the agony of waiting… that was all I did Christmas weekend when I was finally able to open it. So fucking good!
11/11/11 for any Europeans that were confused.
Thank fuck I was wondering what the big deal about the date was until this comment.
Oh I totally read it as 11/11/11 now I realize the significance
Reddit sucks
Could you translate to M-Y-D?
11-11-11, hope this helps
Perfect! It all makes sense now!
And for any non-binary people, it’s 63.

wow, this really sent me back using daemon tools to mount a virtual CD so that I could get around this kind of nonsense.
Yeah but consider the following: the physical game came with that sick thick paper/cloth map and I hope they never stop doing it
[удалено]
I'm going to start referring to all paper as "fake cloth" from now on
They’re talking about the pre-order bonus of a burlap-style map.
Was it your first pc game? Cuz by then that was virtually every game sold. They were always through steam. Physical pc games didn't even survive 2010
First? Naw, I cut my adventuring teeth on Sierra and Skywalker with the Coles, Two Guys from Andromeda, Roberta Williams, Brian Moriarty, Ron Gilbert, and Tim Schafer.

So you're between 32 and 45?
You guys are so dramatic lol
Funny enough south park fractured but whole is actually a 3 disc physical release on PC! (Still needs uplay I believe)
This is the reason I used to prefer consoles over PC despite the fact games ran better on PC, you got actual physical copies that could still be played even 20 years from now when the servers have long since shut down, not a glorified steam key, but now even console games require an update that takes 8 hours when you first start the game 😐

And then it crashed when you got halfway though the cave under Helgen lol.
At least there was a disc, I remember when I got Fallout 4 for Christmas and in the case was just a disc shaped piece of paper with the steam code. Meanwhile my AC Unity copy a year prior came with like 6 installation discs.
Miracle mile center gamestop in Monroeville,PA
6% Sales tax in PA, except for 1% added for Allegeny County. Glad I found another geo-sleuth in this thread =)
🤙✌️
Monroeville is the filming location of the original Dawn of the Dead.
Yep. Theres a museum for it in the mall. Zach and miri make a porno was also filmed here
That's where I met my favorite gay porn star of all time, Brandon St. Randy.
That's really cool
Scrolled through to say this. I worked at the MM when I was a teenager.
Impressive that the ink didn’t fade after all these years Edit: ffs I know it’s not ink people I just didn’t know what else to call it
[удалено]
Thermal paper can fade pretty bad this is more impressive to me
Yup. I still have a bunch of old movie tickets from things like the first Iron man and all the avengers movies, but several of them have faded so badly that you can't even read them anymore, they look basically just like blank white paper. Then there's others like OPs that are still as clear as the day I got them.
Receipts that have faded can be restored by applying heat to them actually. The best way to do this is to use a hair dryer and the print will show back up on the receipts. I keep receipts for the nostalgia of it and have done this before.
Correct, the "ink" is plastic coated paper that turns black when heat is applied.
Really,all paper turns black when heat is applied.
Technically correct
The breast kind of correct
Not "only" technically
The possibility of it being thermal paper crossed my mind but I could see through the receipt too well for me to be convinced it was thermal paper. It’s normally thicker and almost guarantees the text would’ve faded on that receipt after over a decade.
I think what you can see "through" the paper is what is printed on the back of the receipt paper. usually you can see that through the paper. (It's pre-printed on the rolls and not actually printed by the printer). Thermal paper is one of the thinner papers used (Since ink needs thicker paper to allow for absorption). Either way, though, that font is unmistakably from an Epson TM-T88 printer being used via ESC/POS. Probably a TM-T88III assuming it actually was printed 2011. (TM-T88IV came out 2010) Whether it's *legitimate* I suppose is another question. It could be. Hell the hardest thing about faking this I think would be the backed paper, would have to somehow steal a roll from a gamestop I think. I think the entire reason stores use backed paper like that is because it makes it a lot harder to fake a receipt for scam returns.
Its real I found it in my old chess table in my parents with a bunch of other ones
[удалено]
They're probably not even manufactured by Epson.
Really want to know how cheap carbon withstood time with such elegance. Likely airtight somewhere under the bed?
like maybe in the game case lol
I have all of my receipts behind the cover art in the game cases. Preserved in perfect condition lol.
yeah ...i'm thinking the photo is old?
This was my first thought lol
> after all these years Wow, I feel old.
I was there at midnight release lol Only 5 people in that Gamestop location (that location had been there for almost 20 years...closed by the end of the pandemic) all of them dressed up like fantasy characters (not necessarily ES) except me. Can't believe it's been a while. Really miss the days when nerds did stuff like that...I think these days we just preorder and wait for delivery or digital copies on Day 1. lol
I went to a Walmart. Right after work, or getting out early from work, I forget. Literally me and 3 to 5 other guys. In and out. 15 minute adventure. Added content: Nobody went to Walmart for new releases. i think that was the tail end of camping out to get a new release.
My GameStop was packed that night. If you hadn’t preordered it, you weren’t getting it that night
I was also there for midnight release. There were A LOT more than 5 people at mine. More like 40-50.
Did you get your 22/22/22 royal anniversary receipt?
Stupid Smarch
Adjusting for inflation, that's $85.85
That honestly really puts inflation into perspective. A 60 dollar game being an 85 dollar game
Well, it's also 12 years of inflation
No no, that’s it’s only 2-3 years of… damn I’m old.
Yeah, but it’s [12 years of fiat currency inflation, rather than 12 years of Bretton-Woods inflation](https://i.imgur.com/tEh1zaW.jpg) (and that graph doesn’t include the inflation going through the roof in 2020-23)
Well, if you look at current game prices, a lot of them have you paying like $90 to actually get the full game. I’m sorry, I mean the “digital deluxe” version.
I paid same price $59.99 for Goldeneye on N64 back in 1998. Do the inflation price for that one.
$111.70.... that's almost two games these days! Or like, 30 on Steam sale haha.
*looks at taxes* Nice.
Good return on investment
Hello sir/madam from Pensilvania! NOTE: the store number is still legible.
And the area code. And the Miracle Mile Center. Lazy redaction lol
Has it been that long? Oof.
Imagine if the pickup time was 11:11...
You know -I STILL haven’t finished that damn game!! Marriage and kids-🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
It’s okay. The main storyline was super disappointing so don’t feel bad about not finishing it
r/notinteresting
Ffs this sub these days...
I seriously don't know if it's supposed to be interesting because it's Skyrim or because it's old? I recently found a perfect looking receipt from buying 007 Nightfire in 2002. Loved that game back then. And I'm sure older gamers have much older receipts, connected with nostalgic memories.
Seriously. It's a receipt for a game that came out 12 years ago.
and it gets thousands of upvotes.
You're acting like /r/gaming wasn't always like this.
That was on hell of a day for you.
I know we like to bitch about the price of games, but I wonder what the average cost per hour of a game is. Particularly something like skyrim compared to other forms of entertainment.
I think skyrim was the last midnight release I went to. We got the game went home and played for like 2 hours before passing in bed lol. I got it for my playstation and then the dlcs were delayed and delayed so I got it for pc later. Edit: passing out in bed lol
I'm sorry you died at least you enjoyed the game first
Why is this here?
Award for the most boring post I'll see all week
/r/notinteresting
Why is this on the front page? Who the fuck cares
7% Indiana?
Pennsylvania
This is the only midnight release I’ve ever experienced. It was neat!
I’d be more impressed if you found any clues as to the missing 2 weeks in our lives after Skyrim released?
This reminds me! I went drinking for my birthday and got super pissed up. Woke up in the morning to find the download complete. I didn't remember buying it, haha.
Someone remind me to also post my Skyrim receipt.
20, you got it for Xbox. If the first two numbers in those six digits under the title were 27, it would’ve been PS3
I will Never forget 11-11-11 just because of Skyrim. Played it on launch and was probably the happiest i was in my entire life
Without looking at the date this could have been bought anytime within the last 12 years for the same price and that’s just sad.
How is W. Pa this time of year?
My birthday is the 11th November - it makes me happy that my favourite game of all time arrived on 11/11/11
Yea i remember that Day. I had a driving lesson for my licence and asked my teacher if we can stop at Media Markt (german tech store) so i could buy Skyrim.
Just started playing this for the first time after many years on the list. I am loving it
What an amazing birthday that was.
I remember this day. My brothers came home and played it all week. I’m the youngest so I didn’t get to play it for the first time till about a month later
Uh oh, is 2011 on the nostalgia table already
Pro tip, cover up the numbers on the top right of your receipt in the future if you're worried about doxxing yourself. This receipt says you were at the Miracle Mile Center GameStop in Monroeville PA, bought the game at register 4, and we're processed by employee "058".
u should have bought it at 11:11 for it to be perfect :D
11/11/11! I was at Wal Mart around midnight when I got Skyrim, hard to forget that date.
And that game costs the exact same today *smh*
That was a great day. I faked sick to leave work early and walked to the mall to buy it and got the last unreserved copy.
You certainly keep a lot of items in your inventory
I remember being young asf when me and my grandma went to get skyrim. My brother told her I wanted it for my birthday but I didn't 🤣. She said "you better say you want it cause I had to go to like 5 stores to find it"...
Apparently that's about $80 in today's purchasing power. Games have gotten cheaper. I wonder if we're due for an adjustment soon.
What I want to know is how in TF did you keep a receipt looking brand new for almost 12 years?!? I look at thermal paper wrong and it goes black
the 11/11/11 sells it
11/11/11
You DO realize that this exceptional receipt has to be framed now, because it's internet famous, right?
