It wasn't bad though, i had a lot of fun with it. It may not be the best, but it's up there.

Yeah as much as I dislike Skyrim as a game proper and think it's deeply flawed, the modding experience I got from it and the general waythe game is made makes for a certainly unique experience I'm still waiting for another game to give me.

The rich open world, the absolutely stunning variety of creature and people types... i was getting so sick of Far Cry's and Just Cause's four enemy types and five types of wildlife.

I love that you gam choose an adventure with almost no violence if you play thr right cards

Now that's funny because you say that coming from far cry, i come to this game from xeboblade chronicles/X and i'm throughly nonplussed by how comparatively repetitive the ennemies are and how empty of anything but loot the world is, and i come for the lore and the mods.

I loved Skyrim and Morrowind (Oblivion to a lesser extent), but I can definitely see why some people wouldn't like it. The combat is kind of shit and the bugs...oh, the bugs...

At least the stealth mechanics in Skyrim made it so that I didn't actually have to fight too many enemies.

I actually didn't come from Far Cry and Just Cause, I played those after Skyrim, back when Skyrim was fairly young.

I just got sick of those games a lot faster than I ever did Skyrim. I never went nights without sleep staying up to play Just Cause. Whereas since Skyrim came out on the Switch I very much have again, forcing me to remember why I gave it up in the first place. It's starting to affect my work during the day.

...

What the fresh hell

You know how you can sell stolen goods without the help of a fence?

Step 1: Cast a calm spell on a bandit

Step 2: Reverse pickpocket your stolen items on said bandit

Step 3: Kill the bandit

Step 4: Loot your now entirely clean stolen loot from your bandit.

Turns out i was wrong. It's not marked stolen in the bandit inventory but it IS marked stolen in yours

That bandit died FOR SCIENCE!

Pity it didn't work, though.

Well, pity for you. I'm guessing the bandits are very relieved you didn't just gain a new reason to go around killing them by the dozens.

Considering that the majority of reasons for killing them before were "they have stuff, and I want stuff" and "they exist", I think that relief would be rather short-lived.

No, usually my reason for killing them is "They been robbing people" or "I walked within a twenty mile radius and they immediately became hostile and tried to kill me".

Bandit loot isn't shit. It's dragons that have the good shit. And Vampires and Necromancers. Just about the only good loot you can get off a bandit is some Nordic Carved Armor, if their chieftain has a set.

Elder Scrolls bandits are pretty much a case of Too Dumb to Live, considering whom they decide to screw with.

I hate this fucking ninja-archer thing some of them got going. Why do they have access to the Ranger and Quick-draw perks so long before me? You have to have level 80 archery skill to get those, why was I seeing them with these skills at level 20?

Being low level in Skyrim is pain. I finally just restoration-potioned my way into victory. I don't remember what all I did, but the Saarthal amulet lets me cast whatever spell I want for free, and using enchanted weapons doesn't consume any of the soul inside it, and Dawnbreaker has a base damage stat of 600 something after I smithed it. I have yet to meet an enemy I couldn't one-shot.

I

I made a mistake.

So

I went through the Labyrinth in the Labyrinthian and I met the dremora in the Conjuration trial

and

and

I killed him

And then I got teleported back to the Labyrinth. I don't think I'll be able to loot him guys, that was hours and hours and hours ago

And now I'm never going to have the loadout I want. I was going to use the Diadem to make Magic free, and a Talos amulet to make Shouts free... Now I can't have both because the Saarthal amulet is a necklace, and the Talos amulet is also a necklace. This makes me very unhappy.

lol.

And I dunno about you, but I have so many mods that add stuff to the Bandit loot tables, as well as ASIS, that usually bandits have some stuff that's level-appropriate worthwhile.

What's absolutely fantastic is that nearly everyone here is either superpowerful or has a superpowerful housecarl. That, and everyone is marked essential, so as long as you're pumping "make hostile" spells out there, they will NEVER stop fighting.

Freezing and paralyzing each other, flinging devastating elemental spells, flinging each other bodily across the room.... God I love Skyrim. Maybe I WILL play the Civil War this time. Just for shits and giggles XD

Wow. Just lock all the leadership in a room in a never-ending death battle. Meanwhile Alduin is just cruising around the countryside torching villages. Every once in a while he stops by to peek in and see how everyone's doing.
