So after 180 hours, my friend finally beat this game and lent it to me. I guess I should prepare to have no life.


Also, lol

I doubt he's done every quest. He probably just defeated the main bad dragon dude. Thats easy.

Dude, thats chump change if you just do quests, and search every URN you find, or learn to lockpick. I'm 90 lockpick. I have a bankroll of 150,000, and lots of magic items stocked up that I can't sell because the merchants run out of money too easy.

[Future240]

150,000? I thought I was doing good at 28k.

[ReaperBJJ]

I would have gotten the 100k achievement if I would just stop spending thousands at a time buying stuff that I can easily go find in a random bandit cave. I hover around 80k. Is it just me or does it blow to fight mages and vampires? I usually mow through most things but when I get turned into an ice spike pin cushion I go down fast. I'm seriously thinking about making a new set of daedric armor just so I can enchant it with resist frost.

pc high res pack is out. dl'ing it now.

[Nicelyphe]

For easy money if need be, just complete the theives guild and do the side missions. Each side mission fetches like 400-600 gold and takes 5 mins

Finally dling this game. Need to see what all the fuss is about.

spoiler alert the end is a rather disappointing end to GOTY

[DreamN]

that's fine by me. i'm not much of a gamer anyways.

[~s14~]

is this game really that good an life over taking? serious question btw.....alot of ppl talk highly of it and say its the only game they play. Last game i bought and still put countless hours in is bf3.

Can someone list their personal pros and cons about this game? Thinking about pickin it up

[Flexin]

the amount of content to price is phenominal. you can pick it up and not put it down for hours.
I played Oblivion (the title just before this) for atleast 2 years steady if that says anything and i dont like to play games for more than a month at a time

[HyperTek]

They just released the Creation kit and High res texture pack for PC today.. The texture pack weights in over 3gb.. So expect even more content to come out for the game. This game will hold a strong following for a couple of years as the modding community takes off.

As opposed to crap like COD that gets release every few months lol

Don't sweat my pet. Skyrim is on "sale" for 40 bucks on steam. Sell your xbox version for 45, buy it online for 40 and order yourself some Little Caesars.

[LoneStarSilvia]

To those asking if this game is really that good and life gripping, YES it is.

It doesn't feel like you're playing a videogame character, it feels like you're playing yourself in another dimension. If Dell ever decides to take the cock out of my ass and ship my laptop, I'll buy it again for PC.

I picked the game up for 30 bucks, why bf3 hasn't been played and this has been getting all of my gaming time is this.

ADD.

I can get so inundated with side quests, that I happen to reach a few other areas and try to discover as much as possible so I can fast travel if I need to get there again at a later time. Then lets not even get into a mine, I'm spending every waking minutes going through EVERYTHING no stone unturned, making them life decisions what I should haul back to my cabins and what to sell off and what to equip my follower with. I just found out tonight you can guide your followers to use those blessing stones around everywhere. Mind blown gonna have that bitch hit up the carry stone so I can throw more shit in her inventory.

BF3 needs a dlc update and some patching in a bad way, the pc version is horrible to play if you don't have a group of guys in a teamspeak, vent, mumble chat thing talking to each other. That's the only feature I'm envious about on console, is your game didn't ship with one of the most important features of the game completely removed.

[theronin]

i really don't understand how some of you guys are hitting your carry limit in dungeons. did you not buy a house or steal one to stash your shit in? if you are over like lvl 10 or so, you really shouldn't be taking anything that is under like 200gold. as you gain lvls, you should really up that to like 1k items only.

[atom]

I'm hella ADD about that stuff, so it's easy to hit my carry weight even though I have that perk that lets you carry 100 pounds more. Even though i have over 200k gold I can't leave a iron dagger worth like 6 gold on the ground LOL. Total cyberhoarder.

[daftphunk]

wish my laptop was good enough to run it, had to settle for 360. is there any chance mods will hit that?

[HyperTek]

when you stash stuff into cabinets, does it stay there?? i recall in oblivion, i think your stuff clears out due to the game not being programmed to keep stuff, so id just drop stuff on the ground and it would stay there lol..

There is still stuff on the ground in the mages guild that I dumped eons ago that is still there. So far all my stuff in the arch mage room is still there.
