nah im good on playing ay game on the pc, i have bad eyes as it is and i dont wanna have to pay for a controller that works for pc because despise playing with a mouse and keypad.

i figured im pretty much fucked, i skimmed their message baord and it barely seems like anyone is having the same problems i am. plus the most recent patch was supposed to fix two of my glitches actually three and it fixed none.

Just use your 360 controller on the pc.

That. Though of course, getting it for the PC means paying another 60 dollars and starting over and all that shit, so I can understand not wanting to do it since you already bought the game once.

Wow @ the stuff you guys haven't done, being so far in. I'm no where near that far in myself, but I've been dicking around in Windhelm trying to work through the Companion's stuff, but I'm about to go to the Greybeards and do some of that shit.

i'm lvl 45, about 50+ hours in. i had another character up to lvl 38 that i spent about 40 hours on.

Between the 2 i've completed the dark brotherhood, thieves guild, companions, mage guild, civil war, all daedric quests, and i've gotten the 20 shouts achievement. however i haven't done much of the story past meeting the greybeards the first time. i am 2 achievements off from having all 50 achievements, and they are storyline quest related.

just got kingdoms of amular though and i've been playing that alot, need to finish up skyrim and put it up until some dlc comes out.

I didn't pay $60 for this game.

the companions quests are really all that is left for me

I think I'm only 8 hours in or so, almost level 15. But I haven't been dedicating all of my free time to it, and I only have about 3 days a week to play, and not the full day either. I end up playing other stuff in the middle, Left 4 Dead 2 is still very fun for me, and Team Fortress 2.

Oh and everyone remembers if you do the companions quest to become a beast then you cant contract vampirism right? I saved before my companions stuff to try and become a vampire, suceeded then found out that to get the cure for vampirism was glitched, thankfull I had that save.

I had no idea you could even become a vampire. I'm a werewolf.

Are vampires allowed to travel in daylight in Skyrim? What benefits do you get by being a vampire?

I've gotten up between level 30-40, I have the Daedric(sp?) Armor too.

right now im at the ass end of level 45, all i gotta do is up a skill once or twice and ill be pushed into 46.

I never played skyrim much when I first bought it, but after a thorough playthrough, the game fucking rocks, I fucking love fighting giants.

I sadly havent played this for like half a month, been waiting on the 5th update to fix glitches so I can do my fucking civil war quest.... damnit... and waiting on expansion packs.

I haven't played it in quite awhile now, just kinda lost interest. I'm sure I'll get back into it again at some point.

I re-rented this recently to give it a fair chance after updating my tv, and....I still don't think I like the game. It's just after awhile it gets to be the same old shit like other mmo type rpgs(get a quest, run around completing it, come back to town to turn in then get another quest, rinse, repeat...). I got to about lvl 13 i think, storywise i mostly did the companions quest line and got to just after getting turned into a werewolf, then some other random bullshit quests but nothing really for the main story. That's my main issue I think is its just too open ended that eventually I get to a point where I look thru my quest log and try finding something close to where I am and they're all over the map and I just say fuck this. I already spent so much time and felt like I did nothing, I couldn't keep spending hours trying to make some kind of dent into completing anything. Its fun for awhile and I can see why people think its so great, but it's just not my thing. I just don't have the patience to drop 100+ hours into a game anymore.

I'm still playing this quite a bit.

I think I'm close to level 20 but I don't play it constantly.

I like how every race it changes up things that happen in game a little bit, you dont run into the same type of dragons in certain parts and it has alot to do with how people treat you, in my nord race one I just became Arch Mage of the College of Winterhold, that mission was long as fuck but it was tits no doubt.

I haven't played in a while either, but after 200 some odd hours, I feel I got my money's worth.

I'm level 31, became the Companions new leader and I think I'm near done with the Thieves Guild. Gonna start Dark Brotherhood next >)

dragon priests are a bitch to fight, when I had to get the staff of Magnus from that one nig I had to use all kinds of conjurations, stay at a high place where his spells couldnt hit me, and then use a falmer bow (you find them down in the depths on your way to the dragon priest) which is one of the deadliest bows and was just nailing him with poisoned orcish arrows.

What are you, level 3?

I've come across Falmer Bows and they're ok, but my main weapon is a bow. Been that way for my character since I first started, and I've been using an Elven Bow for the longest time, specifically one with enchanted fire damage on it that's base-line stronger than the Falmer Bow's + fire damage, and I've improved it with Smithing a bit too. I've got the Nightingale bow now too, but I haven't improved it yet. I want a better bow, but I'll get one eventually.

16

and I too like the Elven bow, that or the Drainspell Bow too. but I fucking hate keeping that charged just to slap on somebodys magika.

Firiniel's End is a decent bow you can get during the Dark Brotherhood shit, but you nigs need to power level your smithing and just get a Daedric bow. Fuck anything else.

ive been working on my smithing which when I started I completely overlooked, I went big on the archery and destruction classes and always end up focusing more on magic..

most of the time now ill carry a bow but I always keep scrolls and my arch mage outfit and mask that both cause magicka to regenerate 100% faster.


Scrolls are always awesome to have

A quick way to get your smithing up is to go out hunting and make hide bracers with the pelts you get. Gets your archery up too if you use a bow to hunt.

My mage outfit is the shit though, being able to dual enchant is boss as fuck. I haven't played in awhile, but if I remember correctly it was like:

+ 44% to destruction and conjuration
+ 200% magic regeneration
+ 75 magic

Then my game glitched and I have two 'absorb magicka' enchantments in my enchantment list, so I crafted a dagger that steals 46 magic per hit. It's damn near impossible for me to run out of magic now. Kinda makes me want to play again.

yeah with 200% faster magicka regeneration it usually seems like I never run out of power even when I fight dragons with pure magic, I need to get to where I can carry 2 1 handed weapons.

Oh yea that's what I'm gunnin for. My smithing needs to hit what, 80 for that though? I'm at 73 I think. 85 in Sneak, 78 in Archery, I think 78ish in Lockpicking. 58 I think in Enchanting.

I'm gettin there.
