Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Started by Scythe62 pages

I'm new to the Elder Scrolls series, so I was wondering, how come people are saying it sucks being a werewolf??

Though, I did notice that many of the larger cities actually don't require a loading screen to enter, unlike Oblivion where every city that was even somewhat large had a loading screen before entering.

Yeah, the larger cities that are of small size like Iverstead don't have loading screens. But they are quite small.

I can understand larger cities like Winterun but once you get into the city, I don't see a reason why shops and houses have them.

GTA4 has no loading screens in their game when accessing buildings. While I don't know the difference each game technically (aka not a programmer/designer), both games do have a ton of detail in their game.

In dungeons though, I cannot see a reason why you have to through multiple load screens sometimes to access another part of the dungeon.

That sucks, maybe cancel your order with them and see if maybe the barnes and noble website or overstock.com has it, both of these places had the guide for the same price, perhaps they've not sold out yet.

I know Amazon sold out of the guide a few days before it was released, their 'problem' was probably that they screwed up and forgot to send it to you and now they don't have anymore.

But either way, it's the most worthwhile guide I've seen. I was happy to see that there's a ton of lore related content in the guide, too. Telling the history of not only all of the major towns but also even most of the smaller outposts and even random caves and landmarks in the world.

That's exactly what I did, I cancelled with Amazon and actually got it for a dollar or so cheaper on Barnes and Noble's website and it should be here within the week 🙂

I'd much rather Amazon tell me that then say it's just a "problem" with shipping it.

The guide sounds extremely worthwhile, I can't wait to get it. Thanks for the help!

The Wabbajack? Turning people into showers of gold, sweet cakes or in a bad turn of events sometimes Deadra? Its probably the most powerful staff I have found so far.

Spoiler:
I honestly haven't really used it. I'm pure combat-based at the moment, my solution to any problem generally consists of hitting it until it dies.

Though I did try using it against a dragon once. A dragon ambushed me while I was about to go to the Embassy under orders by Delphine. So my only weapons were my fists and Wabbajack, and my only clothing were party clothes. Wabbajack didn't do anything, made me disappointed.

I got the game last friday and haven't been able to jump on it thanks to MW3. Well, Im almost at level 80 and by tonight I start this game.

Gawd! I cannot wait to see how huge this game will be...🙂

Spoiler:
I think Dragons being what they are must simply be immune, didnt it even deal damage based spells? like ice blasts and such? I think it does that for me but i dont think instant kills would work. However it works on Giants and Dewmer Centurions

Gee I'd forgotten how much fun the Bow skill was, while hiding. What a trip!

Yeah, that's what I do.

Even though it was in the previous game, I love how you can see the arrows on the bad guys.

Ha ha, yeah I shot from a distance, and took this guy off of his feet (knocked him at least 6-7 feet back), and when I looked him over, my arrow was stook in his face. I can't wait to unlock the zoom. I've been concentrating all of my resources, and time at the smithy, and I have one last level to go before being able to make Ebony armor 🙂.

May the road, lead you to warm sands. 😂

Being a smithy is strangely addicting for some reason.

I like the ability to upgrade my armour and not being tied to any sort red orbs.

Anyone getting those graphical problems on the 360 or ps3?

Is there a way to see all your accomplishments? I liked the part of the menu in oblivion that told you all your exploits and your ranks in certain organisations like "Bloodletter" of the Arena, "Master wizard" of the Mages Guild, Foot pad etc etc....

Also, Khajit are the friendliest race imo, Orcs sometimes grunt, Nords can be rude and Elves are arrogent but the only people who I have yet to hear a bad word from at least in Skyrim are the Khajit.

Anyone else want to assassinate the little girls running around Whiterun?

Temp files are building up, save and turn your system off for a couple minutes.
