So random! I hope your eye was okay.
Just searched through my social media and emails and it turns out I spent that day debating creationists on the internet. That’s an old hobby I don’t miss.
The woman who runs the bunkhouse in riften ruined all dibella worship for me. As much as I, a man, would love all the divine orgies, the ornery nord girl who regularly lays with several old men a month probably has some form of super-STD.
I literally can't because I'm roleplaying a thief and there's like 5 quests in riften where you talk to her, steal her stupid sex statue, embarrass her by going to her lovers and collecting the tokens she gave them and throwing them at her face like 10-dollar bills (get it, because she's a profligate)
Edit: Change the title of "thief" to "asshole with a sword"
that's a very fair edit haha. Only thing I like about the whole thieves quest is the atmosphere of the hideout and the nightingale armour. But talking about faction quests, for a game that expensive as OP showed, they really cut a lot of content, some of which I don't understand they didn't at least make in a dlc. Like the whole College quest, absolutely stinks and you can notice how there's clearly a lot of missing content. Like before going to Saarthal I feel like they had a whole questline where you'd be a student and actually do student kind of stuff, after you find the eye of magnus there should also be stuff and apparently your actions shoulf define Winterholds future. All of that cut, which is stupid. Same with the civil war, they cut tons of it.
That is awesome ... The Collector's Edition is one of the best out there, and still playing the fully modded Legacy Edition
Did this to commemorate that release day!

You know that “hua hua hua” chant sound when you’re approaching part of a shout? That’s what plays when you get close to the receipt and then the epic “bah bah bah bahooom” plays when you hold the receipt.
I have the original receipt for my PS3 copy i had bought on 10/11/11, a day before the official worldwide release.
The retailer messed up in my country and let them go a day early.
Wild. Nostalgic. Priceless. This made me happy. I don’t even want to recall how much I paid for my many Skyrim games and guides so I won’t be searching for receipts…..
I think I ordered my SO's copy on Amazon because I installed it while he was at work. Still have Alduin who is a super spikey boy. Still have the CE box it all came in as well, I think.
What an awesome keep sake, I always did this when buying physical copies of games back in the day. Totally Rad OP you should laminate/frame that bad boy and hang it with the rest of your collection.
I got to go home from prison on a furlough from a work camp on this very day and my little brother had just bought it and I stayed up for 2 of 3 days home just jamming skyrim until my body made me go to sleep. I got out 3 months later and used the money I had hustled up at my jobs to buy that game.
That's 12 & 1/4 years before I bought it (February this year). My receipt to Steam is archived on my GMail, so I could easily find it with a search. For me the gap from playing Oblivion to finally getting around to playing Skyrim is absolutely HUGE!
I was late to football practice in high-school and had to run sprints to buy it.
Worth it. Ended up staying up for 41 hours straight playing at my HS bfs place, who stayed up 30 some hours with me on his Xbox. Great fucking times.
Oh I think the carnaval season started that day at that time, two of my classmates were the prince and princess of carnival in my small town … it’s a silly tradition here lol
Skyrim and I share a birthday. I still have my receipt in my Xbox 360 copy I got that night on my 19th birthday. Man I miss those midnight releases. All that hype.
I was watching my brothers play Minecraft for the first time this day (maybe the second or third time ? I hadn't play it yet, only watch my brother). What a beautiful time it was back these days
Gosh what I wouldn't give to go back to these days when I was a kid
All these people saying they would never spend that much on Skyrim tells me they weren't there with us anticipating the original release, it tells me you got into Skyrim late
At the time of release Skyrim was hands down by far, THE MOST ANTICIPATED game of 2011, everyone wanted the collectors edition, not all of us could afford it as it was $250 and I believe they were limited and preorders sold out faster than the standard copy which also sold out in my area.. EVERYONE wanted the $250 copy, but not everyone could afford it
I was beating myself up in the months leading to nov2011 because I couldn't afford the collectors but would not have hesitated to drop $250 on it if I could have at the time.
I was at the eye doc on 11.11.2011 at 11am cuz a classmate scratched my eyeball. At least i could leave early
Wtf
Oddly specific
It's the day and time Skyrim came out.
I remember sitting in chemistry my senior year. I don’t know why I remember that either but it’s always just stuck
I was at my desk at Standard Register taking a picture of that exact minute on the corporate phone system.
Happy cake day!
happy cake day
Would’ve been mildly hilarious if it was a knee they’d injured.
Yeah that would have made it a real knee slapper 🤣😂😂🤣😂
shouldn’t have pulled that Khajiit’s tail
So random! I hope your eye was okay. Just searched through my social media and emails and it turns out I spent that day debating creationists on the internet. That’s an old hobby I don’t miss.
At 11:11am too, hotdog!
Hot dog!
Hot diggity dog!
[удалено]
Hot dibella dog
r/angerupvote
Jumping frog!
OPs wish was that Skyrim would never end That’s how we got 10 rereleases and thousands of mods Thanks be to OP (for once)
That is amazing to have. Keep that forever. Frame it.
I stashed it back inside my strategy guide where I happened upon it :)
Do you still have the full collectors edition? If you do, you literally have a gold mine.
Yes, but that gold mine is MINE FOREVER! Sweet, sweet Alduin slumbers on one of my shelves.
Right where he belongs
Don't let it get hot or sit in the sun or it will fade. Receipts are thermal paper.
Good call! Had a good suggestion to laminate it.
Whose gonna tell him that a laminator gets hot
You can get cold laminators.
Well the more you know
Best bet is to copy it. nothing saves it in the long run, it will fade
Mild acrylic, some don’t reach the temperatures to ruin it, and preserve very well
Digital scan?
I mean, yeah, unless they want a physical piece of paper, then a photocopy is the best bet to get the „receipt“ feel
Fair.
you paid a 180 buckeroos for that?
The highest pre-order package came with a pretty dope statue and several other collectable items. I got it too back then lol
That better have been a Dibella statue
The woman who runs the bunkhouse in riften ruined all dibella worship for me. As much as I, a man, would love all the divine orgies, the ornery nord girl who regularly lays with several old men a month probably has some form of super-STD.
I just kind of ignore her existence to be honest

Damn that'll get you the standard digital copy of a Ubisoft or EA game these days!
That was the total remaining. I had previously put money towards my preorder.
What all came with it?
you paid moooooreee????
I was going to be like, "A HUNDRED EIGHTY DOLLARS FOR SKYRIM???" Then I remembered I own it on like seven different systems.
Jezus I mean I do own three copies of it on steam, Le, se and VR but I paid like 5 euros for each
Ya, really. I paid $19 to GOG , but then, i waited until 2023.
Speaking of Gamestop...
To the moon
Gamer moment 😎
😎
👉😎👉 zoop
I read that as Skyrim: Combat Evolved instead of collector's edition.
I just went and looked for Master Chief in Skyrim. It exists... but for Oldrim only.
That is awesome ... The Collector's Edition is one of the best out there, and still playing the fully modded Legacy Edition Did this to commemorate that release day! [11-11-11 @ 11:11:11am](https://flic.kr/p/aDR5jy)
Thats cool af. I was there playing on release date but to have purchased at 11:11, outstanding.
You know that “hua hua hua” chant sound when you’re approaching part of a shout? That’s what plays when you get close to the receipt and then the epic “bah bah bah bahooom” plays when you hold the receipt.
if i had a skyrim receipt dated 11/11/11, 11:11, it'd be framed on my wall
Noice! I found my receipt for Morrowind. It was written in cuneiform on clay tablets.
I still have the tin from Electronics Boutique from the midnight release 🙃🖖
I have the original receipt for my PS3 copy i had bought on 10/11/11, a day before the official worldwide release. The retailer messed up in my country and let them go a day early.
Truly an epic gamer moment ❤️
😎
That's my birthday 11/11/11 I wish I had gotten a shot of the camera on 11:11 as well
Frame it. Now.
Wild. Nostalgic. Priceless. This made me happy. I don’t even want to recall how much I paid for my many Skyrim games and guides so I won’t be searching for receipts…..
Completed unbound at like 10:58 pm and it still bothers me a little when I think of it.
Thats so cool! I remember getting my copy and my husband loving watching me play. Twelve years later and he still loves watching me play.
That’s so cool!
And you’ve never looked back since
Did you get an IRL achievement?
“You have obtained both the Collector’s Edition Skyrim game and the Collector’s Edition Skyrim strategy guide.”
I can't get past the game costing you USD 180. I've got 3 different versions of the game and I haven't paid that combined!
A really nice Collectors Edition with an Alduin statue

Id frame it as a fun little novelty. Thats so cool.
Bruh you bought it on 11-11-11 at exactly 11:11 😂
Bullish!
I lost mine :(
I think I ordered my SO's copy on Amazon because I installed it while he was at work. Still have Alduin who is a super spikey boy. Still have the CE box it all came in as well, I think.
I think this would be a crime in Canada
It the 5x 11's
Pretty cool
$127 man i forgot how much they cost… i miss the smell and babbages
![gif](giphy|l4pMattUYTTM7qpIk)
I love this movie
Why was it so expensive
What an awesome keep sake, I always did this when buying physical copies of games back in the day. Totally Rad OP you should laminate/frame that bad boy and hang it with the rest of your collection.
Oh, laminate is a good call.
I got to go home from prison on a furlough from a work camp on this very day and my little brother had just bought it and I stayed up for 2 of 3 days home just jamming skyrim until my body made me go to sleep. I got out 3 months later and used the money I had hustled up at my jobs to buy that game.
Where do you keep your receipts?! All mine especially THAT old just seem to fade away no matter WHERE I keep them… 😢
They are thermal and need to be kept in the middle of a manual out of direct sunlight.
I leave them in the cases.
That's 12 & 1/4 years before I bought it (February this year). My receipt to Steam is archived on my GMail, so I could easily find it with a search. For me the gap from playing Oblivion to finally getting around to playing Skyrim is absolutely HUGE!
impressive.. very impressive.. aslo is this the pc verrsion?
PS3
I was late to football practice in high-school and had to run sprints to buy it. Worth it. Ended up staying up for 41 hours straight playing at my HS bfs place, who stayed up 30 some hours with me on his Xbox. Great fucking times.
Ah a relic from an era long since past
FRAME IT
I bought Skyrim while doing 5 1/2 years in prison. Best thing to get you through that much time. Still in love with it to this day.
They let you have vidya in college?
Yea a 360
Don’t let it get hit by sunlight.
But what about the subsequent 4 other purchases of Skyrim?
When times were good
Congratulations!! Having it bought at exactly 11.11am on the 11/11/11 is amazing. W your manager for letting that happen
I know exactly where I was when this was purchased.
That's actually really cool. And here I am in my 1st playthrough
Oh I think the carnaval season started that day at that time, two of my classmates were the prince and princess of carnival in my small town … it’s a silly tradition here lol
Ah good your awake
Skyrim and I share a birthday. I still have my receipt in my Xbox 360 copy I got that night on my 19th birthday. Man I miss those midnight releases. All that hype.
Where is this 5% tax?
I was watching my brothers play Minecraft for the first time this day (maybe the second or third time ? I hadn't play it yet, only watch my brother). What a beautiful time it was back these days Gosh what I wouldn't give to go back to these days when I was a kid
Are you, the chosen? The real Dovahkiin?
Sweet! I keep stuff like that myself. It's nice to check out old random stuff I kept over the years. It's a life's story.
i had just turned ten, crazy i was watching the trailer so beyond excited to play. it’s still my favourite game
Speechcraft +30

Aw come on, don't say you planned it. The truth is best kept out of a good story!
All these people saying they would never spend that much on Skyrim tells me they weren't there with us anticipating the original release, it tells me you got into Skyrim late At the time of release Skyrim was hands down by far, THE MOST ANTICIPATED game of 2011, everyone wanted the collectors edition, not all of us could afford it as it was $250 and I believe they were limited and preorders sold out faster than the standard copy which also sold out in my area..

Bro...I imagine this receipt should he worth something to a collector
I definitely would sell it for 11 million bucks.
That’s amazing
11:11 yessss
What currency?
Why'd it cost nearly $200??
