i'd love to try a pure caster but i just love archery too much
― Mordy, Sunday, 13 November 2011 18:30 (twelve years ago) link
this is pretty amazing so far; in the dungeon that mordy mentions i made that magic transition from playing a video game pushing a sprite around on a digital map to YOU ARE DEEP WITHIN THE BOWELS OF THE ANCIENT EARTH WHEN THE VIKING ZOMBIE PULLS ITSELF SLOWLY FROM ITS MOULDERING CRYPT, EYES AGLAZE WITH INFERNAL LIFE, JAW AGAPE WITH A HATEFUL SNEER, RUSHING TOWARD YOU SWORD OUTSTRETCHED roll for initiative

i just killed a solid hour reorganizing my inventory. you can micromanage the shit out of this game if you want to.
― Don't attack when he is black. (forksclovetofu), Sunday, 13 November 2011 19:29 (twelve years ago) link
and it's fun to micromanage btw! very good ui!
is there a way to change the order of items in the inventory? for example, can you lump all of your shields together, all of your boots together, etc?
― Z S, Sunday, 13 November 2011 19:30 (twelve years ago) link
it auto-orders your equipment into like weaponry / apparel / books / ingredients / scrolls / misc, but you can't reorder it by like boots or shields (at least not that i've seen so far)

The start of the Dark Brotherhood stuff is fun

Takes a while to get started but once it does jesus christ it's addictive
I'm playing as an Argonian named Corky

had to take a break. burnt myself out by playing too much. but so good.

Most of tonight's session was me going round the Jarl's house collecting all his goblets and plates and foodstuffs to sell back at the market. Turned out it wasn't really worth the effort. But the view from his balcony is lovely.

i was just doing that too. the whole soul gem/enchant thing seems annoyingly complex.
― ain't nothing nice (bnw), Monday, 14 November 2011 02:19 (twelve years ago) link
first hard freeze, the end for tonight methinks.but damn if i don't already have level 9 and about twenty possible quests.

throw yr hands up if yr gay married

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
― latebloomer, Monday, 14 November 2011 03:17 (twelve years ago) link
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?
― rockapads, Monday, 14 November 2011 06:50 (twelve years ago) link
there is one crash that can be fixed by changing sound settings. Think I saw it in Bethesda forums.

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'

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"

I has a house
― strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Monday, 14 November 2011 18:40 (twelve years ago) link
50 grand for a house seems prohibitively expensive; how did you scrape up the cash?
― Don't attack when he is black. (forksclovetofu), Monday, 14 November 2011 18:42 (twelve years ago) link
isn't it 5000 for a house? at least in [name of town that i can never remember where you first become thane]
― your pain is probably equal (Z S), Monday, 14 November 2011 18:44 (twelve years ago) link
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
― ASPIE Rocky (dayo), Monday, 14 November 2011 18:48 (twelve years ago) link
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.
