A game within a game

For people with long load times, play a game when waiting for skyrim to load

Going to see a lot of these, now that the flash UI swf have been decompiled

I hope someone makes a loading bar mod. Yeah there's a one that shows time remaining but that isn't the same.

 

Why did they take away the loading bar anyway? Is there some secret shame in showing how much time you have to wait staring at the loading screen>

This idea is genius! Thanks for informing us! Why don't they do this in more games?

I think Namco patented these types of games when they came up with the idea to use Space Invaders for the loading screens in Ridge Racer for PSX. Can't stop the modders though!

@leddis Bethesda must think that a loading bar is evil and must be destroyed in the name Talos!

While I think the idea of a loading game is cool, it would be wasted in my case. Hell I haven't had more than a 5 second load time yet. Maybe I'm just lucky or something....?

how long do you have to wait (and how old is your computer) to be wanting to play a game, takes me like 4sec max for any loading, and my pc isnt the best thing out there either

Because loading don't take even 1s?

I have old rig, but skyrim is loading like 5x faster than oblivion is.

Well, maybe they took the loading bar away because they give you the little interactive mesh at each loading screen to rotate and zoom in/out on while you wait. I didn't even know you could do that until someone said it in a different forum.

 

And my load times are under 5 seconds as well, and that is on a disk drive hard drive, not a solid state. It's almost annoying because I try to read the messages about the gameworld at each load, but they flash by too quickly.

 

I said it's 'almost' annoying, before I get flamed by people with shittly load times.
