Current Events > Skyrim playthrough topic. Spoilers since this mostly my first time ^__^

(+) Yeah! (+)

So far I am tasked with killing a dragon because I have the most experience
I do not have experience. I ran like a coward when the dragon attacked.
I didn't even do Bleak Falls Barrow properly. My magical conjured wolf dog thing did like 90% of it. I just played "stand back and shoot fire".

I don't think Jarl Balgruuf understands I am not a hero.
On the other hand I will need more lightning spells to not get wtfpwned
I hope there have same sex marriage in this game. I want me to get a nice Nordic waifu and adopt the cute kid Lucia since she has no home. Seriously I almost teared up when the option was there and I had to say I can't since no house and I'm like "WHY WOULD DO THIS?!"

Take a carriage to riften and go to the tavern, the priest of mara can help you set up a wedding
---

I don't need marriage apparently I can adopt as a single women who don't need no man but needed a giant spider to kill the fucking dragon
---

In other fun news in addition to having giant animals kill the dragon, the mod skytest likes to make fucking giant invisible bears a thing

And now time to refix my game
fuck you dude who make your buggy mod
---

There's a cool Conjuror perk that allows you to have TWO summons out on the field at once.
---

What is your characters name?

I can do that with Skytweak but later yes I will use that with Ordinator

Ronda obviously

my advice for Skyrim is dont take any advice. I regret ruining the game by trying to find out how to get the best armor, build, etc through the elder scrolls wiki. Make your first playthrough special, and discover the world as it unfolds to you.

I've looked up stuff before and I'm modding it kinda heavily, mostly with magic/enemies/perks but it's been so long that I've forgotten most of it. Like legitimately I thought whiterun had the mages college.

I don't mind about spoilers or anything but the best build is clearly the one with summoning stuff while you run around nad perfect your "run from the fist" that you couldn't practice in UFC

To answer a question there is same sex marriage and there isnt specific gay characters if they can be married ypur characters gendet doesnt matter.

I'm marrying Lydia.
We're gonna be the best married viking undead raising demon summon couple ever
---

Mercurio in riften is a mage and pretty good one can be hired for 500 gold
---

In the land of Skyrim, everyone is either bi or dragonbornsexual.

---

Okay we got it working with no invisible bears but with more creature mods because we gotta replace skytweak with something

i didn't know it was still possible in 2019 to have not played Skyrim before

I've played it about six hours total, 2 on console and gave up because it was lame
about 4 on pc but with mods and testing it and stuff. I never got to even fight the first dragon in the mainquest until tonight

So the entire world is gonna be saved by someone who can... shout

Skyrim really doesn't need much in a hero
---

I like how he's just "yo go to this place called throat of the world huge snowy mountain, long walk, maybe death and more death but y'know just go there"
Do I get to take anyone? Like a guard or something?
"A guard? Help? Fuck that, you know how to SHOUT, I have never known anyone to raise their voice but you have mastered this ability!"
---

I wish I could experience Skyrim for the first time again. I'm compensating by doing my first play through of Oblivion.

---

What the fuck in the fuck in the FUCK

Lydia is uglier than anything else
Time to mod this lady
---

Lydia Strong Nord Woman

https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/110/images/64231-2-1427765826.jpg

Okay we'll do this
Ronda Rousey has apparently influenced what I want
---

I broke carriage travelling using Better Fast Travel
With it, the dude outside Whiterun won't bring me anywhere his dialogue has no areas to ride to, without it (uninstalled properly and checked on a new game) the dude just gets on the cart, black screen then gets off and I'm still in the same area

COC exists for these issues

I use Bijin, which I understand is one of if not the most popular female NPC overhauls. Pandorables covers most of the rest of the ladies that Bijin doesn't.
---

I don't want anime tier

But still Lydia needs to learn I don't need her to comment on combat when there be no combat
---

There's a few giant camps around the map that have Giant Clubs laying around. You can't wield them, but your followers can. If they pick on of those things up... you will essentially become their follower.
---

Pic of your character?

---

DuranOfForcena posted...

why bring Lydia with you combating around anyway? i never got why so many people take her as a follower.

She's got a shield. I can hide like a coward.

008Zulu posted...

I will try this
---

So it crashed like crazy so now we're starting ALL OVER again
yes sir those few hours are lamely gone
but now with LESS MODS but still my waifu Ronda
---

there is one reason and one reason only why i will probably never play Skyrim again.

the fucking Chaurus.
i hate those things
---

playing skyrim for the first time 8 years after release?

How
---

I love how in Skyrim you're supposed to be the ultimate badass who saves the world from the dragon scourge but then you have 80 year old women jumping up and stabbing them in the head with daggers.

---

Hmm I'm worried about lacking perk points since I seem to be leveling up slowly and have ordinator which adds like a million perks in

And I don't know what else to do just go full conjuration or not
life is hard anons
---

I am in Bleak Falls Barrow again for the quest as I started a new playthrough

Why am I getting my ass kicked? Why is it when I added the ability to summon TWO summons I am still getting my ass kicked?
The previous one that was meant to be harder with mods was easier
---

Magic is not done very well in the base game. Easy mode is a heavy armour wearing stealth archer, who swings a two-handed sword/axe/mace. Playing a pure magic user is gimping yourself.

Have you tried Apocalypse? It adds so many new spells to the game, that plus Ordinator makes magic using viable.
---

I have apocalypse and Ordinator

It's weird since I'm just leveling up fast. I wasn't even level 2 last time but am level 4 now in the barrow
Also I get two-three shot in robes
I think armor is an idea now yes
---

I have to admit this is a lot more fun without some of the mods. I mean I liked frostfall and it was fun but like tedious after a few hours

Also the fact I have two QT FIRE LADIES OF DOOM at once and have Lydia with a bow and a magic sword might also explain a lot but damn is it fun

Also the guards killed the dragon but I got credit. Gotta love these people.
---

Did you get the perks that boost the various mage armour spells?
---

Not yet, I'm level 4 only. But damn this game is more fun and I like how I forgot to hit up the riverwood shopkeep for the golden claw so his dialogue is different when I brought it back

I love this fucking game
Also shouting with unrelenting force is a joy
---

Using the three-word version is fun. My favourite shout is Stormcaller(?), it summons a lightning storm that smites your foes with lightning bolts from the sky. Very handy versus Dragons.
---

cave bear two shots me
one shots my flame atronarchs
4 shots Lydia

let us rethink this

He won't be able to get them for a while.

---

Ah the bear was level 28
cave bears do not spawn with that level unmodded apparently
---

Hey listen we know you're this super important woman and are the only hope of saving us all but like go get this useless thing from some tomb on the other side of the fucking map
How will it help you as the Dragonborn? The fuck am I meant to know but it's uh, it's your final trial. Have fun!

Lol! Just wait until you get there.

It's actually interesting how little I know of what to expect. With the only things I know are You kill Auldin and have to kill Paa... whatever the fuck it is and in Dragonborn Miraak is also Dragonborn and in Dawnguard I think you have to become either a vampire or an undead type thing to proceed in the quest I'm surprised how little I know.

Except I'm totally taking Ulfric's side in this civil war. They tried saving my life after the dragon attacks, the guards are like "yeah that prisoner can die"
---

I refuse to take a side in the Civil War, because of civil war questline is fucking stupid. There's nothing tangible or meaningful about its resolution, so I leave it until the main story forces a resolution.

---

Awesome there's a carriage to winterhold
spells more useful than flames here I come!
---

Hero, who slayed the dragon and saved the world, collector of Daedric artifacts, Archmage, and Slayer of Ulfric! Welcome to my shop! That apple will cost you 5gp.

I only chose a side because I had a permanent bounty glitch in one town and I had a theory that if I chose the side that didn't control the town currently then maybe it would replace the guards... and it did thankfully
