I lost another few hours of smithing/enchanting time because of a stupid bug. Goddamn Jarl wouldn't go to the castle where he was supposed to be so I could trapped the dragon. Had to load a previous save.

Are you playing on a PC Jeff? If so you can move the NPCs around with console commands.

"Where are ya, Lyds? I thought you were sworn to carry my burdens? nyuk nyuk"
...hard to care. I'm going to have to trawl through the companion mods and see if anyone's written anything decent. I miss Veronica, Arcade and ED-E. Even ED-E has more charisma than Lydia.
Just reinstalled Skyrim after HD failure in October, installed Sky UI, Hypothermia, Imp's Needs, bunch of location enhancers & quests and an alternative start mod so I don't feel like my new character is a retread of the old one. I 'woke up' in the Imperial Fort in Solitude, which was very cool.
An hour in though, and I'm already a bit bored.

Beat the main quest last night. Sort of anti-climatic. I realized that really my favorite thing to do is to just walk around and level up while maxing out the various abilities. I wish there were places with more enemies though.

Anyone getting the expansion where you can fly frickin' dragons?

let me sheepishly raise my hand. yeah, it's ok.
the dragon flying bit is really badly done tho

finally been playing this and it's easily the best one that isn't morrowind. literally makes oblivion look like a beta. i've been a vampire for a while even though being a vampire mostly sucks (no clans or quests as there were in morrowind) and last night i did the quest to Join The Bard's College, which involved retrieving something from a dungeon because apparently all bards must be able to defeat hordes of undead (meanwhile i have demonstrated no ability to play any instruments) and when i got back they were like, great! we'll have a ceremony tonight to induct you. come back at dusk. this was at like 10 in the morning so i went down the street to an inn and slept until six, then returned, only to be told again to come back at dusk, so i waited for one hour standing in front of the guy who would shortly be inducting me into the bard's college and when i came out of the wait he drew his sword and yelled IT'S A VAMPIRE!
so i ran and hid in a supply closet and listened to everyone tromp up and down the hallways looking for me until they gave up, and then i thought, well, shit, i need to feed on someone to be able to pass as a human again, but i don't want to risk going outside because of the guards, so i'm going to have to feed on one of my fellow bards. or my soon-to-be-fellow bards. so i followed the sound of a lute to find that old woman (the one who tells you THE ONLY REASON I PLAY THE LUTE SO WELL IS THAT I'M OLD) standing in her room alone playing a song before bed -- crept in, closed the door, watched her finish her song, watched her lie down to sleep, and then ate her. came out of her room like HI GUYS SORRY I'M LATE, and then i went to the ceremony where they burned a giant effigy of a despised king and like half the town turned out to cheer and applaud me as i received my official bard papers. i stood in the dark with the flames flickering in my eyes and my face was a mask. good game.

Still wish Bethsoft would just give in and give us another Morrowind though. If I want a mad-ass Dwemer pauldron on one shoulder, I WANT one. Givf.

ok so I know I'm a terrible father for letting my daughter play skyrim, but she's a khajiit and she discovered an entire town of khajiit today. being a catperson and living among other catpeople is like heaven on earth for her. she said, "I'm a kitty cat, and these are my peeps."

?? where's that?
― goole, Sunday, 10 February 2013 05:22 (eleven years ago) link
I have no idea, she wanders around a lot and she ran into this group of khajit who took her to their village (really just a couple of huts)
maybe I can ask her for directions lol
― unprepared guitar (Edward III), Sunday, 10 February 2013 05:36 (eleven years ago) link
ok apparently it was just an encampment of khajiit on the outskirts of whiterun

i've been playing the hell out of this again recently, just wrapping up a third playthrough. i think i've done just about everything at one point or another. i have to say, i love playing this game, but i don't love it, if that makes any sense. the whole thing is just too buggy and too shaky. i've got about a half dozen quests stalled in a broken state, and an inventory littered with shit i can't drop.
and a whole lot of the things that DO work don't make much sense. the crafting is pretty badly done. your followers are more of an annoyance than a help. the AI is not very good. this sounds like grousing i guess, i DID play the hell out of it. for every one beautiful or engrossing moment there are two exasperating ones.

Voice acting is hooooorible
― Jeff, Monday, 11 February 2013 00:53 (eleven years ago) link
ha that's usually the one thing i hate about any game, but here i think it's ok! the dialogue isn't so bad either (quest design is way bad though, on the whole)
not real clear on why some ppl have the scando accent and some don't, however.
― goole, Monday, 11 February 2013 00:56 (eleven years ago) link
read that as "voice acting is hoooooonorable" for some reason, and enjoyed a nice minute with a gin + tonic and honey wheat braided pretzel twists, thinking about that while staring distantly

Like 6 people sound like Arnold.
― Jeff, Monday, 11 February 2013 01:02 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, for a game with like 6000 people in it there are too few voice actors. oh, it's the gravelly-voiced guy again...
― goole, Monday, 11 February 2013 01:04 (eleven years ago) link
some people call this junk, me i <MUTE>
I enjoy the randomness and diversity of the accents. It's like a trip to a renaissance festival, where everybody just slaps on whatever accent they can manage to do.
I've been trying to place what real-world locale Mjoll The Lioness' accent resembles. Is that a Portuguese accent, or what? I love it.

Ah, I guess it's just Russian

this was even more of a problem with oblivion, where you'd frequently hear the same person having the same empty conversation about mudcrabs you'd heard 500 times before with himself, like that scene at the beginning of manos

enjoying the companions questline, but can't decide whether to remain a werewolf or not. leaning towards yes, seems like an awesome trick to pull out of yr ass when you're bored and clearing out a dungeon down the line.

At 200 hours in and beating Dawnguard, I think I'm done for a while. I'm going to wait for a mod that lets me have a proper armored husky companion dog even tho I naturally went vamp.
Still, I don't think I even played FONV for 200 hours. 150, sure, but not 200.
― The New Jack Mormons! (kingfish), Thursday, 21 February 2013 06:31 (eleven years ago) link
I finally beat the main quest a few das ago. Over 200 hours of dicking around, so in the end it was far too easy. Enjoyed it though, and I'm pretty sure I'll grab the expansions soon as they're finally out for PS3 (or will all be out by the end ofthe month).

I don't want to go back to Oblivion again, and I wonder if I'll return to Skyrim anytime before all the DLC comes out. I didn't go back to the Wasteland until I could play FO3 and FONV with full narratives.
And hell, I couldn't beat FO3 due to a game-breaking bug where I couldn't enter the water processing plant at the Jefferson Memorial.

New Features
Legendary difficulty setting Legendary Skills – Skills of 100 can be made Legendary. This will reset the skill to 15, return its Perks and allow the skill to affect leveling again. This effectively removes the overall level cap.
huh
― goole, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 17:06 (eleven years ago) link
You can only level up by boosting up your stats. By resetting the stat cap, you can effectively level up forever.
Also, this makes no sense and will break the game.
― The New Jack Mormons! (kingfish), Thursday, 7 March 2013 02:58 (eleven years ago) link
Game stops being fun by the time you get to level 50 or so, so yeah i don't see the point of this.

Where should i go for post-Skyrim action? I'm looking for a modern RPG that you can play well in 3rd person (as well as Skyrim) with some cool visuals, lots of dungeons to fight through, etc. 'Good story' is not really that big a deal for me if the immediate graphical/sound experience is super awesome. High fantasy/dragons/wizards/etc. stuff preferred.
