Skyrim

I think I started it at 10am yesterday and ended at 2:30am. I took a break to go out to dinner, but holy shit I'm in love with this game.

I did not end up making a kitty cat character, instead I am a fierce and sexah Altmer lady.

When your Altmer was standing at a cooking pot in her underwear, I fell in love.

I am soooo jealous. I have to get a new video card before I'll even bother getting this game 

I'm going to make a high elf and an argonian. I will probably make the argonian first. Then make it a shadowscale and become a vampire.

Also, I will be playing this on a shitty rig, so I expect the results will be less than satisfactory.

I made a Redguard named Jermichael. Since magic looks and works amazingly in this game I'm actually going to use it for once.

Me too. I've been using a sword in one hand and a spell in the other. I can burn someone and stab them at the same time, sooo super AWESUM.

What card are you running now? I thought it would be kind of demanding, but my 6850 handles it well.

Damn. Here I am having to pay for a wedding. I can't buy a new game.

You could not wed.

Fuck spells. I'm having a sword in my right hand, while bashing people in the face with my shield.

No sword in one hand and axe in the other?  Also bearskin on your back and/or wolfjaw on your head?

Why, do you think Sovngard awaits him, when he's dead?

Also, arrows<magic<two war axes and fur armour.

Which race is the best to start off with?

Note to Bethesda: Having one voice actor send me to another character with the same voice actor is noticable. Especially when you have to speak to them both consecutively.

Orcs, the only mer worth mermering about.

I happen to love shield bashing. Vikings did it. I almost shat myself with excitement when I noticed you could do it.

It's the shit G41 express chipset that came with this motherboard, I can't even play Plants vs Zombies! lol

I've been attacked by three (EDIT: six) dragons in the courtyard of College of Winterhold alone. Shit's littered by dragon skeletons by now.

Also, wearing Archmage's robes + Morokei = hilarious ringwraith mode (that is, if the game shits itself appropriately), not to mention +200% magicka regen.

  It looks incredible so far, and not just the actual graphics, but the visuals look superb and well thought out.  The GUI is shit, but I guess I'll have to get used to it until someone implements a better one.

I think I have to start a new dude already, though, because first thing I did when I got to Riverwood or whatever was torch a chicken and the whole town started kicking my ass.  I guess no one appreciates fried chicken in skyrim.  I think I'm actually going to try a magic user this time around since it seems actually pretty cool to use (I think someone in this thread already said something to that effect).

This is a common problem. I did the same thing. Fucking Fable making it okay to harass and torment chickens.

>100 enchanting
>enchant fortify destruction and one-handed
>free destruction spells and one shot errything

Well, this game didn't take long to break.

Before I tried to set it on fire, I took a while looking for a kick button.

That was annoying. I took a swing at a random chicken and proceeded to get gang raped by the entire village.

Didn't you ever save?

I think it autosaves when you change locations so I might have a save coming out of the cave.

lol. I think this game actually immerses me into the medieval setting a bit too well. I wanted to kill a chicken but I had a feeling everyone would shit their pants at it, so I saved before hand and proceded to rape everything that came at me. Poor Alvor, I will never forget when you told me my dagger was shit and that I needed to sharpen it. YOU TAUGHT ME ALL I KNOW! *shank*

But really, I'm pretty weirded out that they don't get pissed when I steal their crops and eggs and then proceed to sell them back to the merchant.

Also, how long did you need to grind for 100 enchanting?

A few hours. Just make sure you get a lot of cheap clothes and soul gems (you should have a literal fuckton of them if you've picked up every one of them you've found; use the crappy ones for training and spare the good ones for enchanting your own gear).

Also, I've now been attacked by a total of nine (EDIT: ten) dragons in the courtyard of the College of Winterhold. Man, those fucks must really hate mages.

Also, I killed an ancient dragon (the kind that instakills you while flying frantically in midair) which made me feel like such a badass.

More like, I've grinded enough to become a demigod.
