Skyrim

[Innordinate]

I think I'll get tired of Skyrim fast. I don't have patience for these games I guess.

I (try to) design RPGs for fun :) anyone else into that sort of thing?

 

[Lady of Longbourn]

I haven't. But I have tired to create maps on AOE III. But so far there seems to be a few bugs, probably just my maps aren't the best. I can't get the other side to actually play me so far.

I'll get the hang of it but it does frustrate me!

I have asked the guy from Riverwood, who can train you in archery, to follow me. He's doing a nice job of protecting me. My son told me that, since he is following me, I can pay him to train me, and then open up his inventory and take my money back. :sneaky: I couldn't do that! That'd be... wrong! But, well... maybe just so I can advance enough to kill those giant scorpion looking creatures that keep spitting poison on me! :geek:

Lol, I took the money back. Shame on me! I usually don't do that. I love this game. Are getting Dawnguard?

I have a problem with trying to keep my ethics on this game. I love the Dark Brotherhood the most, but will still try to be 'good'. I also stay away from what scares me, like the ruins with the scary zombie things in them. I also try not to go to far away from cities in fear of being attacked but also because being attacked all the time gets boring. I own most of the houses and will spend a lot of time doing 'safe' things.

My PTSD seems to carry over into the game.

My other favorite quest line was the stormcloaks / civil war. I thought it was cool and different. I loved counting my kills in the battles.

I spend an enormous amount of time collecting ingredients for potions. H got ahold of a highly valuable enchantment, and has since collected cheap stuff to enchant with it and sell for lots of money. He is bored now, because everything is so easy to come by with so much money. This is a game that we'll probably play for years to come, off an on. There are so many different ways to play it, different things to focus on... I like it. :D

I don't understand what this means and it's probably because I'm not getting Dawnguard...

Are getting Dawnguard?

My PTSD seems to carry over into the game.

As much as I love games like Skyrim, it triggers my PTSD too. Not as bad as first-person shooters, but pretty bad. Often I have to quit playing because I get this really strong sense of numbness or aloneness. If I'm somewhere like a Draugr crypt I can suddenly get really claustrophobic and have to stop playing and go outside. Sorry to be a party pooper but yeah >_< I love RPGs but I can't play them much :confused:

I seem to prefer thinking about them rather than playing them--designing characters for them and whatnot. I also tend to play good games in order to see what nifty ideas I can pilfer from them.

I struggled with my temper when I first started this game. (I freak out when I'm being attacked.) I guess that's why I play in sneak mode most of the time, with my bow ready. Maybe that's what makes a great RPG, Garblefraz... hint hint ;);) ... one that we can all adapt around our various idiosyncrasies! :D :roflmao:

 

[DharmaGirl]

Dawnguard is the DLC just released for Skyrim. I also have trouble being anything but good in the game. I am also an enchanter, love the magic stuff!

 

[Garblefraz]

Yeah enchantment is great fun. Hmmm now I want to play again...

And I also have difficulty being evil in games, or even neutral. Those poor common folk just break my heart every time!

 

[DharmaGirl]

Me too, I just can't be mean to them, lol. Drives my son nuts!

I got some great shots today. :) First picture is over the city of Whiterun. I am not sure where I took the other photo.
