Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Started by Nemesis X62 pages

If only I can download the mods but I have the console version 🙁

While I thank Bethesda for the guilty pleasure of Kinect support, I want some more quests already.

Details on future DLC:

Crossbows, spears, and snow elves. Oh my!

In other news, the Kinect support update has not shown up yet even though Bethesda said we'd have it in "the week of April 23." Well it's passed the 23'rd and today's the last day of this week so where is it?

Okay so it turns out the Kinect support will be given to Xbox players tomorrow:

Also, to anyone looking forward to this update, here's the voice command list:

Coming this summer for X-box 360!

Sadly almost no information as of yet though.

Wonder if Dragonborn will get something equivalent to Lycanthropy.

1.6 will reintroduce horse combat into the series

So, how do you guys get to level 80 and the like?

I understand mechanically you keep doing things in the game for a long time, but the highest level I ever reached was 36 after having done 90% of the relevant quests and being otherwise bored of the game.

I got 100 smithing and made dragon armour, but I don't wear it because I can't enchant it with the additional sneak attack damage from the Dark Brotherhood armour or anything else really useful aside from resists and skill fortifications that are honestly redundant at a certain point. Dragon fights are easy, I beat the final boss at level 23 I think it was on my first run through, and that entire part of the game had the most gratingly bad voice acting of the entirety of the game, so I haven't redone it.

I'm archmage, companion, listener, leader of the thieves, ect.

Where do you continue to find challenges and amusement in Skyrim? I just can't find it.

Good question, sir!

Lots and lots of grinding. I probably "ground" for 20-40 hours in that game.

I posted one video on how to get sneak, archery, and restoration up, all at the same time. It takes about 2 hours to level archery all the way up doing my method. There are other methods which I consider cheating, however.

There are also tons of quests to do. Tons. I play it every now and then.

I will try and remember to post up my stats. I have maxed out my character to 81. Maybe I could do a vid or something for you.

I'll work on it tonight after I get off of work. Check back in this thread, later, for my update.

By not sucking at the game, assclown.

It's just not as immersive as Oblivion or the Fallout games for me, I guess. I'm bored :/

It's pretty much impossible to suck at Skyrim.

Pretty sure I'm going to buy this in a few days. Is playing as a mage actually viable in this game or is it still overly-finiky and underpowered?

Great to see people still discussing this kick ass game.

It's viable but yes, in my experience it's "underpowered" compared to the other classes...

Go Conjuration.

Summon two Dremora Lords.

Congratulations, a winRAR is you.

Raise the difficulty setting if you find things to easy, and if you have the game on PC download the mod Deadly Dragons, that mod and Master difficulty... best of luck.
