That was amazing. I cant believe they took that all out.

They didn't take it all out...The game was finished when they did this. They just did this for fun to see what creative ideas they could come up with. We may see some of this in the future (fingers crossed). I think it was really rude to show us this, though. 🙁

That stuff looks awesome.

The nerve of Bethesda showing what we'll probably never play. If none of that stuff comes later as DLC, someone's gonna get punched.

People at Nexus can, now that they have the CK, remake all of that if they so desire.

I wouldn't be surprised if most of stuff will be put in eventually in a different game, or a exp pack.

Ditto.

She stranded you in the sky?

Yup.

I gave up after three tries and just reverted to my last save before getting to the last part.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was all released as unofficial mods, for free, by the player base. tbh

Just platinum'ed the shit of this game, that was fun.

Query; is there any use for gold in this game?

I've been doing my traditional Bethesda style of gameplay, meaning I loot ****ings everything I see and sell it to the vendors (and never buy anything). So other than the odd house now and then, is there any reason to keep looting and selling items?

The usefulness of gold fades very quickly in this game. It's definitely useful early on for buying potions and maybe, slightly better weapons but other than buying property, i personally never used money at all after the first couple hours of playing. Even then, i could have gotten by without it. Spelunking and doing side quests will garner you all of the best items in the game.

The only way i can see in game currency ever being useful in an elder scrolls game is if they introduced an online auction block, similar to what WOW has.

Right, I'll stop hoarding then for once. Still remember millions of caps collecting dust in Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

Also, I've not bought a horse yet, do they have a "summon horse" ability for when I fast travel to nowhere? Or how do I pick up my horse again after traveling?

If you fast travel, the Horse will automatically be next to you once you reach your destination (assuming it is not a walled city, in which case, it'll be in said city's stable).

Horses are nearly worthless though. Apparently they're as fast as your sprinting speed (so basically, you get to conserve your stamina), and they aren't very hardy. One of my horses was one-shotted by a Chaurus. That horse you get in the DB questline is much better.

I used a lot of my money in upgrading skills like Smithing. It gets pretty damn expensive the higher you go. I think it was like 3500 per upgrade point.

I didn't know you could use money to upgrade skills?

I thought you could only do it by getting the points from leveling up?

There are various skill trainers around that you can use to increase different skills.

I don't really use them much myself, but I also haven't played enough to have much spare money.

Also, horses are suicidal. Ridiculously so. They will charge and attack anything that attacks you. Including dragons.

Yeah my bad I totally got skill mixed up with perks 😛

And I haven't used a horse yet, I walk everywhere.

Whenever I needed a horse, I would just steal it. Wasn't a big deal, really, barely got any bounty for it, if any at all.

Shadowmere is nice, though. He seems almost impossible to kill. He attacks dragons and giants with me.

I found it useful to do so with skills I would never use in my gameplay style.

I basically upgraded Smithing to around 90ish before I stopped playing the game. I basically wanted to most upgraded armour and I didn't want to grind to do so.
