Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

you can get married in this?
Beginning to think that this is just what i thought Fable iii should be.

i haven't progressed far enough to get married but Corky's def. gonna get a lavish gay wedding

i'm not sure i get the enchant thing, still. i have the soul trap spell, and empty gems. but everytime i cast soul trap on an enemy and then kill it, it says "gem not large enough" or something like that.

eh.

PC version keeps crashing to desktop. no errors or anything - game just disappears. Am starting to get pissy about it. Does QA even try anymore?

there is one crash that can be fixed by changing sound settings. Think I saw it in Bethesda forums.

compulsively collecting every one i find. there's some good reading in them! i need them for when i retire.

Guard examining spider corpse on roadside

walk up and pick up spider's leg and wave it around a bit, looks a bit like dead spider is dancing

guard snaps 'put that down'

cosign -- and for all these fucking dragon bones + scales

xp

lol getting married. man i hated that girlfriend shit in san andreas, ringing me every five minutes, why would anyone consider this?

i'm thane of that one place (at work right now, can't remember location names), but everyone's still treating me like shit! "you disrespect the law, you disrespect me", says the lowly guard. "I'M THE FUCKING THANE MAN"

lol what a choad

ordered btw!

doing a pretty bad job on the "not sounding a hipster" front there!

i'm not a *thing*, but *is thing*

classic move

if that motherfucker was for real he would've gone thru this when daggerfall got rereleased as GOTY edition for all those fucking newbs to pick up so fuck him long live Battlespire

did he play the fucking awful redguard adventure game? hell no little bitch.

I has a house

50 grand for a house seems prohibitively expensive; how did you scrape up the cash?

isn't it 5000 for a house? at least in [name of town that i can never remember where you first become thane]

you might be right, i may be misremembering.
5K is still hefty but doable.

I should buy this game so I can offer ya'll good subprime loans on your thatchroof cottages

I have trouble spending money in this game, at least on items. The prices always seem like a bit of a ripoff, considering you can usually get the best item in the store for free through questing. I suppose I should be saving my money for training and spell tomes.

$$$ trade your cash for daedric artifacts $$$

i'm also always wondering what to do with shit like dragon scales. if i had a house i guess i'd keep it there, but as an already highly-encumbered dude trudging around skyrim i pretty much just sold them immediately or probably not a good price.

this is like every swords and sorcerors game ever? like in diablo II, only a fool would buy his weapons from the blacksmith!

I got some daedric something or other from the god of the hunt and I have no idea what it is/what it does.. I should google it or something.

i bet it's badass

it involves turning into a wereworlf if you have lycanthropy.. fuck that noise. I ran into a couple vampires earlier this morning and freaked out that I would get vampirism..

they got rid of them for oblivion but when you became a vampire in daggerfall you belonged to a particular house of vampires w/ varying benefits and disadvantages. it was very Vampire: the Masquerade'esque

are there whores

vampire whores?

no just whore whores

i'm sure there must be tho now that i think about it i can't remember running into any yet...

i got turned into a vampire.
weaker in sunlight
"possessed of an unearthly thirst"
Took a cure disease potion.
the end.

no shit? that's all it takes to get rid of vampirism these days? the alchemy field has really made some strides over the years...

i think you can also go to a shrine.

in the old days you'd have to find a vampire hunter and get him some ingredients so he could make a cure for you.

ok i have this now due to crafty trading at gamestop

stupid being at work

how the hell have they created the flowing streams of water in this game? shit looks incredible.

TBF that vampirism/cure thing was the same in Oblivion.

Yeah this is a slow starter huh

I got a pretty dope staff valued at 1800 gold twice cuz the staff fell off the body after I killed the dude, then appeared in the inventory of the body too. sweeeeeeet.

jjj: yes but once it gets all four wheels on the ground, whoa nellie

I thought that was a joke because it starts with your execution being interrupted by a dragon burning down a castle
