FredEffinChopin Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 This was on r/skyrim. This is why I don't own a horse. (if it's not firing up childhood memories then you have no soul) It's via a skin mod btw http://www.skyrimnex...file.php?id=596 Oh no... oh g... Artax!

Waldorf and Statler Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Can't really censure anyone for playing Zelda. |:< I'll be damned if I don't try, though! Merill cannot stand on her bed in the new house, so sweet rolls end up whereever. Now that I've maxed enchanting, I've begun adding +magicka regen and +archery damage to all my equipment. .... I can't enjoy other games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) I just came upon the realization that I could use my Gamestop giftcards online for Skyrim. (Or instore too but sometimes they don't have PC games out) I AM SAVED. Now to hope for some discount this holiday season. I doubt it though but its not big deal. I have enough for a new game.

Saturnine Tenshi Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) That's a given, Jesus. Next you'll want to go play Duke Nukem Forever or some equally rancid title. Like MGS. Edit: Aw, man. I was kidding. Anyway, a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S42NgHsmbbw Edited November 26, 2011 by Saturnine Tenshi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) Alright, I could try to skim through a dozen thread pages, or ask the question now: Stormcloak or Imperial Army? I haven't joined either side yet, but I was leaning toward Stormcloak. That is, well, whenever I talk to some Stormcloak soldiers, they come off like Nordic Nazis. I also spoiled a bit of the game for myself when I learned what happens to Whiterun if you take up Stormcloak. I would feel bad, not to mention I plan on marrying an NPC from Whiterun. "Listen honey, I know this is your home and you have precious memories of it, but I'm gonna have to possibly wage a bloody assault on it." Not really asking for advice, just wanted to see where the PXOD community puts their allegiance!

deanb Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 The Empire isn't the empire I grew up with. You say Stormcloaks are Nordic Nazis, the Thalmor are Imperial Gestapo. I had to spoil the bit about Whiterun because I ended up in that quest chain and as soon as it kicked in I got inheritance from an NPC in Whiterun. I checked the Wiki n then did a save backtrack. It seems not much changes, mainly the Jarl changes and....Lydia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Really, both sides are kinda made up of dicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 I didn't expect either side to be mostly good or mostly evil, but it was unsettling when Stormcloak soldiers would go into "Go Nords! GTFO everyone else!" I really only followed Ralof because he was a cool guy, whereas the other one kept calling me prisoner and ordering me around. Made a lot more sense to follow someone who would help you escape than someone who's probably only keeping you alive to screw you over later on.

TheMightyEthan Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I'm going with the Stormcloaks because at the beginning of the game the Empire was going to execute me, only stopping because of a dragon attack. I make it a general policy not to help people who try to execute me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) That's the logic I went with too but the longer I went on the more I realized that nords are huge assholes. Edited November 27, 2011 by Mister Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 I have a feeling (and given I've broken a dude out of a thalmor torture chamber) that the Imperials are equal wankers. (with the added edge of the aforementioned execution for executions sake) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 Probably. There's no real "good" faction to go with. It's just a matter of deciding the lesser of two evils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enervation Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I went Imperials, but I made it no secret that I disliked the Thalmor. Any Thalmor unlucky enough to meet me in the wilderness will soon find himself kissing dirt, getting skewered by a Dremora Lord, or thrown into the sky by Odahviing. No mercy for the "high-born."

deanb Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 So after setting an entire cave on fire via gas (it was a small n narrow cave mind) I have to say I'm quite impressed with the environmental methods of killing people introduced in Skyrim. Don't always line up so well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I was completely surprised at how there were actual environmental attack methods. No, really, imagine accidentally setting yourself on fire because of the lamp oil on the ground! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I encountered a bug once where a mammoth spawned on top of another mammoth and the physics glitched out and made the mammoth on top soar up REALLY high into the air. It died when it fell back to the ground. Free mammoth tusk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 My current complaint will be the bugged quest items. My Misc section especially now I have a dozen stones of Barneziah (only 6 have stacked), a lute(quest completed), a flute (also completed the quest), an alembic for I don't know who, two gauldur fragments and the final one I can't get because I killed it's owner before the quest started, and 6 amulets of Talos I can't drop. And maybe some others I can't remember atm. Thankfully none of these weigh anything due to being quest items but god damn are they getting annoying to have to scroll past. It was the same with Oblivion too, thankfully the unofficial patches fixed it up. I'm hoping for the official ones to do it this time around. Another minor quirk is unlike Oblivion you can no longer fast travel from your houses. Meaning I have to enter house, drop stuff off/stock up, then leave before I can go anywhere.

Enervation Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I can't even get the quest for the flute to complete (I had it on me before I got the quest). Looks like she doesn't even recognize I have it. /sigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) I've encountered some odd ones, but nothing game-breaking. Once, when going about the Thieves Guild repeatable to forge ledgers, the objective was situated on a box. The ledger was downstairs and its numbers were unassailable. However, and this is a big however—can you not see the bold letters? The ruins north of the College of Mages reset for some reason. Now, that alone is negligible. BUT! BUT HOWEVER! HOWEVER BUT! It's where I accidentally killed the sweetest dunmer ever to mutter, "Hey Merill, let's go adventuring and do all the things adventurers do!" I gave Brelyna a proper burial with two sweet rolls and a long taffy in the tomb opposite the sacrificial slab. This set me about a quest to obtain Dead Thrall and bring the wonderful lass back. When I'd finally reached the point of learning the spell, I found her sleeping cozily in her Hall of Attainment nest. Returned to her tomb and the doors were re-locked, the sarcophagus re-sealed and only the treats remained. I guess I'm a conjurer now, too. Additionally: I've sent a message to Solitude.

Looks like she doesn't even recognize I have it. /sigh I may or may not have mentioned but UESP is a great resource. They're slower at filling up on info but when they do it's shit tons better than the wikia. Namley because it includes work around for bugs: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Pantea's_Flute (I'm assuming you're on PC version) You still end up with the flute in your permanent possession though (just noticed the page has info on that too). Btw the bards college won't teach you to sing n play a lute, but god damn are their skill improvements decent. Turned in both the lute n flute and levelled up. As for tombs resetting: They do that. So even if something is cleared it can still have stuff in several in-game weeks down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Well, it wasn't so much the reset as the revival of a named NPC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
