Skyrim - The Elder Scrolls 5

did you kill a chicken?

Was going to say the same thing I killed a chicken. Bad move.

Or possibly even a cow. A giant chased me because I killed a cow. I thought they only protected the mammoths, but apparently not.

Has anyone taken out a dragon by themselves yet? i have had 3 attempts from random dragon attacks, and I die every time. It's bloody hard.

Was debating whether to get this now or wait a bit but that price is too good to pass up. May jump on Uncharted 3 and Arkham City at those prices as well.

Nah. The dragon I beat near Whiterun, there were two guards shooting it with arrows. I think I did the brunt of the work though.

Even still, hard.

NVM!

Worked it out. Bloody hell I'm an idiot.

Thanks guys! Continue on

Also for anyone else who had the retail copy and it is making you download the whole game : http://forums.bethsoft.com/index.php?/topic/1255286-pc-installing-skyrim-from-disk-not-steam/

That worked.

I have a $50 jb voucher, so essentially I can get Skyrim and Arkham City for $84...

I didn't want to buy any games til after uni exams but I can't pass that up.

Found a couple of bugs so far:

1) A floating hammer about 10 metres above a farm
2) The favourites thing doesn't work too well. It wouldn't remember my bow hot key for a while and at the moment it won't let me add things to the favourites list

Where do you guys dump all of your stuff? I feel like I just get bogged down so quickly!

I'm in a similar situation with my final VCE exams this week but this offer is too good to refuse so hopefully I'll be able to restrain myself for a few days while they sit in my draw waiting to be played.

I haven't had any problems with my favourites list. It's working great for me.
Have found a few little holes in the map, but apart from that I haven't found many bugs. Maybe sometimes peoples speech doesn't work, but that has only been once.

Join a faction (the companions, dark brotherhood, thieves guild) and you can dump all your stuff in a chest or box in there bases. That is probably the easiest way.

I have just killed my first dragon by myself. Took me 3 tries, but I got it . Luckily I levelled up during it, so I got all my magicka and health back, and I got the perk which makes spark damage 20% stronger. Would have died otherwise.

Im currently level 10, and have just joined the dark brotherhood. Looking forward to going off and murdering some people

Damn the hype has convinced me to get this game. And that price from JB is too good to pass up. 6 days of study knowing this is ready to go will be a challenge.

Looking forward to this more than MW3!

Wandering up to the greybeard area and came across a headless horsemans ghost!

It will be worth it. This game shit all over MW3. I bought MW3 on Monday, and while its ok, this is comfortably 20 times better than it.

And at that price who can say no!

I have killed 4 dragons so far and two was single handed. I only have trouble with killing giants but I just sit somewhere they can't hit me and should magic at them.

Having a break atm after 12 straight hours. Eyes are bloodshot but I ****ing love this game.

Strong effort.

In one of my fights vs a dragon, a giant was also there. The dragon attacked both of us, but the giant attacked me. He then smashed me into the air (like 200m into the air - seriously), and I died.

My skepticism of being a werewolf is gone now. It is ****ing awesome. I don't need a horse, all I need to do is go into my beast form, and I can run super fast, and rip people to shreds with my claws, then eat them. The life of a werewolf is grand.

 

[melbournemartin]

I'm going to go on an epic long journey from the first city you go to to the furthest city I can find

 

[pantskyle]

Is there any drawbacks to being a werewolf.

Can you change at will?
Is there any effects like being a vampire in Oblivion?

I'm up to the mission involving the werewolves and want to make the right decision.

The only thing I think is that you dont get a rest bonus for sleeping. You select when to use the power (once per day only), and to keep the effect going you have to feed on people/animals you kill. When it runs out you just turn into a human again. Oh, and you are susceptible to silver weapons. Other than that, it's awesome.

Plus you look badass, and can run really fast.

These crashes to desktop are becoming annoying

 

[GrandBlue]

Just beat the first dragon. Find it funny how when they eat people, you can find their armor and and weapons inside the Dragon's corpse.

 

[DaNgEr_lOOms]

How much of a soft **** do you want to be. Go tell her to get stuffed..

Does anyone else hate the controls?

I keep moving left and right instead of turning. I absolutely hate turning with the mouse, it sucks.

WHAT CAN I DO??? I can't get used to it and it is ruining the game for me.

I know it is setup like a first person shooter but I am not into those games. I like the WoW controls. Can I change it or something?

Why do you need to move left and right anyway?

I'm not playing this on PC, but are you talking about strafing?
How else would you turn if you didn't use the mouse? You don't still use the directional keys do you?

You could always use a gamepad if you had one.
