Too open world, too “do as you please” type of game. GTA series is the same, only with more cheats. Hell, I’d like to know who was the lazy susan who decided that ALL the general npc’s should say that.
I used to enjoy Skyrim also, but then I encountered a particularly frustrating bug which still hasn’t been fixed and has successfully killed my desire to continue playing.
They accidentally the whole game, b0rked it from front to back. Multiplayer is shoddy as anything, Barebones isn’t even bare. Maps are confusing, camping is far too easy. COD:BO perhaps the best they’ll ever get it.
Amen, to that,
Besides we can just FUS RO DAH him somewhere else…
Skyrim is the best game ever made, or will ever be made until the Elder Scrolls 6, no amount of CoD fanboys can ever change, that, CoD never one a single award in 2011 aside from the once the bought from Spike’s VGAs, BF3 is a better shooter than CoD will ever be…
And this is exactly why I will never play Skyrim. Personally all this hype just ruins all of my desire to play this game. Same as with CoD. With all this ridiculous exxageration I only get more stubborn and spiteful. I know it’s a flaw, and that most likely both games are at least respectable, maybe even great games; but all of these raving fanboys (or girls) get on my nerves.
You clearly didn’t watch anything on youtube for about a week, I couldn’t even post a comment without seeing an arrow to the knee joke. With that said the joke is still occasionally funny as long as it isn’t over used like it was on youtube.
I’m not a google translator, I’m a moron/hater translater. Obviously, this is on the front page because people thought it deserved to be here. If you cant overome your hate for a game you probably don’t own, then just pay attention to the picture.
And you are basically judging me for not liking a single joke that is getting OVER-used in every section of memebase. “I used to be…. then I took….” I dont have anything against the game itself, but I certainly have something against overused unoriginality, low creativity and also hasty, judging people like you.
So do everybody a favour, pack your things and go bother somebody else, Thank you very much.
^THIS!! i love skyrim with a passion, and the arrow in the knee thing is funny IN the game, but it’s overused on teh interwebs now -_- INTERNET, Y U RUIN SKYRIM HUMOR?!
That’s what I say about all these stupid pinwheel animal personality memes. Foul bacheoler frog, Socially Awkward Penguin, Paranoid parrot, ect. ect. ect.
Um, I don’t want to cause a fuss, but Isn’t that the whole point of a meme? To use one joke over and over again in an attempt to humor the group of people who actually get the joke? Last I checked memes we’re meant to be over used, it’s the reason we like them so much. The ones we like we enjoy even more when they are used frequently, and the ones we don’t like or don’t understand become this; a silly comment on a forum dedicated to over using memes, COMPLAINING about the over use of memes! A bit silly when you think about it.
HOLD IT!!!

If Diacraft were to be a Google translator, he’d have to be a computer program modified to detect a given foreign language and make it so that the statement said is understood by a person or group of people that understand a different foreign language!
It is understandable that Diacraft is NOT a computer program, rather a human being using the internet to host that reply. Who or what else could come up with a reply like that? Besides, this isn’t Google!
*slams desk*
*dramatic zoom in*
This is My Little Brony, a branch from Memebase dedicated to the Bronies of the world!!
I wasn´t implying that Diacraft is a program, I was saying that he re-expressed what I was saying incorrectly.
In fact. I am NOT saying that Skyrim is a bad game. Yet, I feel offended that Diacraft stated that I don´t have the money to buy it. I was only stating that I do not like overusag3 of a single joke, which by the way I DO understand.
But too much of the same one gets on my nerve with time. That´s all. No offense intended. Some jokes might be good, but not always. You understand, no?
That could work. But sometimes I have to get on and off quickly because I use the family computer to comment so getting a gravitar may not be a good choice.
BEER PONG!
*Epic shot where the ball bounce at super speed between the walls before landing right… On my forehead, apparently…*
ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: Knocking yourself out with a ping pong ball!
But there’s stilla fail.
It’s: I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an aroow in the knee.
And not: I used to be an adventurer like you,BUT then I took an aroow in the knee.
My little pony~
I used to wonder what friendship coud be~
My little pony~
But then I took an arrow in the knee~
The more overused this meme is, the funnier it gets. That’s the whole starting point of the joke. There’s nothing funny about an arrow in the knee. The fun comes from the fact that this phrase gets inserted absolutely anywhere for no reason at all.
“and then the imperial guard said”
oh please no *scroll*
“i used to be an adventurer like you, but then i took an arrow to the knee”
dangit.
this damn meme is ruining ponies, this shouldn’t continue.
this picture goes in my favourites for one reason: epic amounts of d’aaaaw
(btw, because imperials say this, i became a stormcloak)
Hey! I’m not judging your choice for being an Argonian. I have no problem with Argonian at all (my second favorite race) I just prefer Redguards. Also look at my comment directly below on my plans for an Argonian playthrough.
Yes, yes. I don’t know why I even started. I am sorry. Besides, Redguards are also poison-resistant. As for Hallux, I do not judge, either. My sister is Khajiit.
Let’s see if I can get all of this right in my family:
Father: Nord
Older Sister: Khajiit
Brother: Imperial
Me: Argonian
…pretty messed up family, huh?
I’m gonna start a new game as an Argonian just so I’ll get the feeling that an Argonian saved Skyrim and brought Talos worship back to the Nords. An Argonian that they hate so much they can’t even call them by race just the derogatory “lizard.” If I can, I’ll have Darkeethus as my follower for as much of the game as possible.
When I was making LOLs, my knees suddenly hurt. The pain was so intense that I actually cried. When I looked down to see why my knees are hurting, I was shocked to see this thing in my knee. Guess what it is.
Wearing armor in bed?! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM?!
It’s their anti-arrow armour.
They are prepared to be deployed anytime!
I HATE that old, overused phrase…
Brace yourselves: Skyrim haters are coming…
Skyrim…..Haters? Do such people even exist?
Yes. I know because I am one. In fact I’m an Elder Scrolls hater. Boring combat, slipshod writing, horrendous bugs and now idiotic, unfunny memes.
KILL IT WITH FIRE!! What have you done……
No. FUS RO DAH!!!
If you can’t appreciate any part of the elder scrolls, you really ARE a cynical a-s-shole, and probably don’t like anything
I used to enjoy Skyrim, but then i took an arrow to the knee.
*crickets*
Too open world, too “do as you please” type of game. GTA series is the same, only with more cheats. Hell, I’d like to know who was the lazy susan who decided that ALL the general npc’s should say that.
I used to enjoy Skyrim also, but then I encountered a particularly frustrating bug which still hasn’t been fixed and has successfully killed my desire to continue playing.
I used to know a guy who made an arrow to the knee jokes, then he took a Brohoof to the face.
+15 internets to you my friend
leme guess u loved MW3 though didn’t ya, even thought they didn’t change a damn thing from MW2?
they did change it though. they made it BORING.
They accidentally the whole game, b0rked it from front to back. Multiplayer is shoddy as anything, Barebones isn’t even bare. Maps are confusing, camping is far too easy. COD:BO perhaps the best they’ll ever get it.
Have you even TRIED the campaign? That campaign is the best in the entire CoD repertoire to date, imo.
and how long does it take? 3 hours?
I propose we love and tolerate this person’s difference of opinion and go back to slaying dragons.
Amen, to that,
Besides we can just FUS RO DAH him somewhere else…
Skyrim is the best game ever made, or will ever be made until the Elder Scrolls 6, no amount of CoD fanboys can ever change, that, CoD never one a single award in 2011 aside from the once the bought from Spike’s VGAs, BF3 is a better shooter than CoD will ever be…
FUS RO YAY! for she is Flutterkiin, ponyborn!
^hell yea
altho im too lazy to play it because i deleted my save =I
And this is exactly why I will never play Skyrim. Personally all this hype just ruins all of my desire to play this game. Same as with CoD. With all this ridiculous exxageration I only get more stubborn and spiteful. I know it’s a flaw, and that most likely both games are at least respectable, maybe even great games; but all of these raving fanboys (or girls) get on my nerves.
Imperial guard? What enemies of the Imperial Guard use arrows? Orks?
Stormcloaks.
They call me Stormblade, slayer of Tullius.
So… how is being an unwitting pawn of the Thalmor treating you?
Well, I’m not an enemy, but I do run around at random and aim at ponies’ knees. And you all know where they ended up.
The town guard?
Exactly! I’m the best recruiter they have ever had, and they don’t even know it!
>Imperial Guards
>Skyrim
>Taking arrow to the Knee as an IMPERIAL Guard.
>You sir, just lost the game.
Only de real noizy-like arros. Dey’s de best arros.
We’s paintin’ dem red, so dey go fasta.
I used to hate arrow in the knee jokes.
Then I bought Skyrim and realized all the haters are just too poor to buy it.
Problem, upper lower middle class?
What the hay. “upper lower” is confusing enough, but then you just HAD to throw in “middle”.
It’s in the middle of the upper section of lower class.
You clearly didn’t watch anything on youtube for about a week, I couldn’t even post a comment without seeing an arrow to the knee joke. With that said the joke is still occasionally funny as long as it isn’t over used like it was on youtube.
These kinds of jokes are to be used sparingly. The “Arrow in the Knee” joke ended up as a Charlie Sheen style attempt.
We all see how well that went.
I thought about buying Skyrim.
Then I decided to buy a Playstation 3 to round out my console collection instead, since it was the last one I was missing.
Nope. No problem here.
did you have a stroke? You already had an xbox AND you chose a ps3 over skyrim?! dude, wth. If you do get skyrim, get it for xbox.
I have Skyrim for the PS3, trust me i regret not getting it for the 360, soooo many frame-rate issues on the PS3….
They’re BORN guards?
Are they clone warriors??
CELESTIA IS THEIR MOTHER???
Celestia cloned them from a Mandolorian pony warrior and used her own cells as the other half of the equation.
^ star wars lore win!
Curse you… this is working its way into my head-canon…
Factor in that Luna has her own bat-winged black Pegasi guards and I’ll let you do the rest
You´re kidding. Youre´re kidding, right?
How many Sky-g0dd@mn-rim jokes are we gonna witness here?
I posted a comment like that earlier. Just have to wait for it…
Depends. How many “We got ourselves a BADASS here!” are we gonna witness?
The badass jokes are at least funny. Skyrim jokes are not.
This is true…
Translation: I dont have skyrim and I jelly of inside jokes I don’t understand. Please make fun of me for being so butthurt.
What are you? A google translator? Because you dont seem to be able to translate from english to english correctly.
I say what I mean to say.
I’m not a google translator, I’m a moron/hater translater. Obviously, this is on the front page because people thought it deserved to be here. If you cant overome your hate for a game you probably don’t own, then just pay attention to the picture.

Reasoning with this kind of people has no sense. They think their pseudo-trolling has any affect. Just ign0r3 him. That´s all that´s needed.
Hello, pleased to meet you. My name is Diacraft, since you obviously have absolutely no idea who I am. It’s been tried. It didn’t work.
You have obviously never met me before. Ever.
I´ve been so fortunate until now, yes.
or seen Diacraft’s gravtar change 20 times in one thread!
I have like 30 of em now :]
What character should I make next?
Or if I recall, I think I´ve seen you in threads before, but I never had chance to have your response on my post or vice versa.
How about spike?
Well, there is a bit of a truth in your post.
You´re a moron.
And you are basically judging me for not liking a single joke that is getting OVER-used in every section of memebase. “I used to be…. then I took….” I dont have anything against the game itself, but I certainly have something against overused unoriginality, low creativity and also hasty, judging people like you.
So do everybody a favour, pack your things and go bother somebody else, Thank you very much.

I us3d to make arrow to the knee jokes, then I f0ught for two days with an arrow through my t3sticle
This is the! Worst! Possible! Thing!
and then the Imperial guard said: Stop criminal sc|_|m you have violated the law.
and then you failed to combine two phrases
@ Big Mac: OW! That made my eyes water just thinking about that.
Funny, you don’t look like Liam Neeson…
Wait for it…
I’m still playing Oblivion.
Wait a second…GASP! That’s how she recruits new guards!
Arrows.
Choppy: Am I the only one here who think that she will violate the baby guards horribly with her horn after the story?
Me: Aside from bendy, yes!
I would not. That’s just sick.
There is a big difference between 34 and disgusting.
Eeyup
@ Bendy sorry if insulted you,by saying you would do such a thing but your name was the first that popped into my mind when I thought “clopper”
I made spike.
Cool, now if you could please load it.
It takes awhile to load. You should get one! I will find a picture of something
Try this:

Bloody butcher knife?
No thanks.
Well he does have choppy
That could work. But sometimes I have to get on and off quickly because I use the family computer to comment so getting a gravitar may not be a good choice.
Why would It be a bad choice? Just do it ^-^
Don’t I have to sign/ up to gravitar then post comments? It already takes awhile and adding that step will just make it longer.
Nope, common misconception. ANY wordpress comments you make US1NG THAT EMAIL will have your gravatar, it wouldn’t take any extra effort.
it even works when you are logged out and dont have the site open, even.
Now that you mentioned it..

I used to be a Molestia’s guard like you, then I took a horn in the butt…
“and then the imperial guard said”
oh please no *scroll*
“i used to be an adventurer like you, but then i took an arrow to the knee”
dangit.
this damn meme is ruining ponies, this shouldn’t continue.
this picture goes in my favourites for one reason: epic amounts of d’aaaaw
(btw, because imperials say this, i became a stormcloak)
Nah, Stormcloak guards say it too.
D@mn Stormcloaks
D4mn Imperials.
Outlawin’ Talos worship because the Elves tell ‘em to.
Good point.
This is why I worship the Daedric Lords.
I hate seeing Argonians oppressed though
I used to like Argonians. Then Khajiit got badass claws.
I us3d to like Argonians. Then Khajiit got badass claws.
I still like Argonians, though. Just not as much as Khajiit.
To each their own, Right?
I have been Argonian since Morrowind. I refuse to be any other race. Plus, they breathe underwater.
Same here
Same but replace “Argonian” with “Redguard” and “breathe underwater” with “recharge stamina superfast.”
I have a ring that allows me to breathe underwater.
Private Dancer: I am disappoint.
Hallux: **** your water-breathing ring, I need none of it!
As I said, To each their own
Hey! I’m not judging your choice for being an Argonian. I have no problem with Argonian at all (my second favorite race) I just prefer Redguards. Also look at my comment directly below on my plans for an Argonian playthrough.
Yes, yes. I don’t know why I even started. I am sorry. Besides, Redguards are also poison-resistant. As for Hallux, I do not judge, either. My sister is Khajiit.
It’s okay chief. NO hard feelings.
My Khajiit isn’t even my main character; I made the mistake of making a Nord my main character, yet the “Battle Cry” Nord power saved me many a time.
I mean, Nords are COOL (cwatididthar?) and all, but I would have preferred to be a different race.
I know what you mean. Nords are my third favorite race, but I don’t really like my Nord chick I made for my second character.
Oh and I DO see what you did there.
Let’s see if I can get all of this right in my family:
Father: Nord
Older Sister: Khajiit
Brother: Imperial
Me: Argonian
…pretty messed up family, huh?
I lpve being an argonian dragonborn, just feels right.
Plus I love how the redguards can run forever.
Well, I’ll see y’all tomorrow, I’m going to bed now. I haven’t slept for 2 days. *poof*
I don’t have any elves created come to think of it
All of my friends who have skyrim are elves. One’s a wood elf, one’s a dark elf, and one’s a high elf.
I’m planning on making a Dark Elf and naming him Drizzt Do’ Urden
It’s a good thing this is all related somehow. Or is it? *dramatic music*
I’m gonna start a new game as an Argonian just so I’ll get the feeling that an Argonian saved Skyrim and brought Talos worship back to the Nords. An Argonian that they hate so much they can’t even call them by race just the derogatory “lizard.” If I can, I’ll have Darkeethus as my follower for as much of the game as possible.
did i break something by becoming a stormcloak as an elf?
I use to say “I took an arrow to the knee.”, but then I got the shi* beat out of me.
hey guess what? i didn’t complain about the joke OR think the joke was funny.
i can has 1% card now?
Umm… nobody here really thought the joke was funny.
1% card denied.
I did.
I love arrow to the knee jokes they’re so funny :3
but i didn’t complain did i?
I used to be an arrow, then I took an adventurer to the knee.
Meanwhile, in Soviet Skyrim…
LOVE AND TOLERATE! Loooooovvvvvveeeee and tollleeerrrraaaaaaatttteeeee…
i can only say one thing about this…LOL!
