Dang, graphics look good in some spots, but average in others.  Weird.

The gameplay and story must be solid if it's selling like that.

Not my cup of tea though. :(

Filthy Khajiit! I meant what style, mage, fighter, stealth etc. I'll play as a Dunmer thief mage hybrid.

It's not like oblivion, you don't need to choose that stuff anymore, you can just train everything by using that kind of stuff. I'll focus most on stealth though  :grin:

I got it yesterday and I've been playing like crazy
it's AWESOOME!  :Woot_Emoticon:
I'm a mage but I forgot my race... I'm a fire mage. I named the character Natsu after the anime character from Fairy Tail  :great:
I'm still weak but I challenged some giants and their mammoths  :grin:
was really fun using that shout were you sort of fast forward. I can't remember the names coz I'm just marveling at this beautiful game

Pfft! Should've chose ice. Upgrade ice+dual spell+staggering makes you unstoppable. I hope you chose a magic based race.

of course I chose a magic based race. I chose a breton
damnit I just researched on them and I don't have a destruction skill bonus... I'm supposedly more of a conjurer.
whatever... at least my power is dragonskin. it goes well with my character natsu  :sign0066:

I used to like these types of games but for some reason it feels like a huge waste of time whenever I start playing.

will probably get diablo 3 though!

Dunmer start with a 25 destruction level :Woot_Emoticon: ..anyway, you're probably using it a lot so it will level up quickly anyway.

Has anyone joined the thieves guild or dark brotherhood?

Maybe i will join the dark brotherhood today  :grin: not sure, only played around 4 hours on this game yet

I'm not sure if I've already finished the DB quest line but right now I'm already doing meaningless quests. If it is, Oblivions DB questline was so much better.

Yep..Already finished at that point.
All the guild quest lines are so damn short if you don't do the random generated pointless one's. TES 3 and 4 both did a much better job with the guild quests and
SPOILER: BOTH the thieves guild and dark brotherhood have some sort of traitor. Now I walk around not trusting anyone.

Why don't we have white as a default colour?

Where do you get fire storm from? Have you enchanted your gear to make destruction cost like 10% yet?
Title: Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Post by: Royal Freakiness on Nov 26, 2011, 12:24: AM
rescue yuria the witch and she'll teach it to you.
firestorm takes a lot from my magicka.. like 99% of it......
and yes I enchanted my gear and was focusing on spending all my skill points on destruction and increasing magicka.
