Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Guessing it's a glitch, but everyone in Riverwood just ignored an Elder Dragon attacking them until it decided to spit ice in their faces. Silly townsfolk. Maybe if you guys had been paying any attention, poor ol' Sigirid wouldn't have had to die.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

I want to play Skyrim but I don't want to play Skyrim. It's like Fallout, if I start playing again I end up freaking losing another 100 hours of my life in there. >_<

I hope this is including those new werewolf perks as well. Oh well, at least being a vampire won't suck anymore.

Or is that suck more? Kirby sucks and that's not a bad thing for him.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

I've actually started playing Skyrim again; new character and all. Now the question is to continue and possibly get burnt-out before the DLC arrives, or wait until it arrives but possibly be too low-level to survive... Hmmm...

But will Mjoll finally shut up?

Most of it centers on what they wanted to do/how they have evolved the implementation of DLC. There's still plans to have more free content updates like the horse combat along the way to other DLC.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Killing stuff without having to dismount is awesome.

I wasn't planning on playing but ended up spending quite a long time just riding around and killing anything that attacked me. XD

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

I like how the updated kill cams for my ranged shots are sometimes now calculated at the same time as the system's insane evasion dice roll. It's like when FFXI was able to make EES miss but instead we have a very dramatic slo-mo miss.

The horse stuff was OK, but spells aren't allowed on horses so no Bound Bows

This might explain my dad's trouble with trying to fight on a horse.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Got Dawnguard downloaded just as I wrapped up the last of the major quests in Skyrim. Crossbows are powerful and very accurate, but slow to reload.

Perks for werewolf and vampire lord are issued differently from other perks, theyre based on the number of feedings you make as either one of those and, no, you can't be a werewolf and a vampire lord. Though if you did cure vampirism before you'll still have a chance to be a vampire lord. You can also give up being a werewolf in exchange for becoming a vampir lord. To offset the addition of vampire lord normal vampirism has been altered to not get you attacked in towns if you do contact it, changing into a VL in public, however now has the same result as doing it as werewolf.

I'm sticking with werewolf.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Yeah, staying werewolf for sure now, if you go vampire lord you're instantly flagged enemy of the Dawnguard for obvious reasons and can't learn how to smith bolts for the crossbow. I built my Nord to be a ranged attacker so giving up crossbow is like giving up skooma.

Plus going vampire ruined her complexion and makeup >.>

I'll save VL for my gothy-looking Breton Mage.

Re: Elder Scrolls SKYRIM

Serana necromances a goat.
I shoot the goat to loot its hide.
It was a farm's goat but killing it in undead form got me a bounty anyway.
I pay my Windhelm bounty.
I ride the carriage to Dawnstar.
I get attacked by some skeevers, so I pulled out mt crossbow.
All 700 steel bolts are gone.

The guard had confiscated all of them because some were apparently flagged as stolen.I DID steal five steel ingots from Riverwood, I just didn't know stealing got passed on to crafted items. That guard is spread next time I see him with freshly crafted boltsz >.>

Also rerolled my Breton vampire. Didn't like her look and no melee weapon in her repitoire made for slow going. She's now a vampire within three hours of getting out of Helgen.
