Had a Lvl. 56 Breton, got bored with that because I felt I didn't milk the game for what it was worth.

 

Move on to a Lvl. 35 Nord. Pickpocket got to 100 and then things got retarded when I realized I could have entire towns walking around in their skivvies. I capped that file off by murdering everyone in Whiterun, dragging them up to Dragonsreach's porch and blasting corpses everywhere onto the Statue of Talos and whatnot.

 

Finally decided to get serious about a week ago after a five month hiatus with a Wood Elf playthrough. I'm currently sitting at a cool Lvl. 33 with 100 Enchanting, 70 Alchemy and 75 Smithing. Currently undergoing the accumulation of enough phat lewtz as to where I can pull a sweet XXX+ damage rating on a Daedric bow, not unlike Gummy above.

 

I'm pretty satisfied with this file so far and will likely try to 100% it over the summer nights.

 

I'm pretty sure my favorite thing to do, though, is dual cast Telekinesis in an inn on a pile of coins somewhere and chuck the coins at the innkeeper. "Gil Toss!" Cross franchise joke. Not very funny.

I played Skyrim for a total of.... 30 minutes. There's something wrong and the amount of lag I get is just awful, so I can't play it for more than 5 minutes at a time... my highest level? 2 lol.

how are you getting lag?

btw I just checked, you're higher in lvl than I am

I'm not entirely sure how I'm getting lag... either somethings wrong with the game or I need a better processor... I checked the system requirements and mine passed the minimal settings, yet whenever I'm inside a dungeon i get MASSIVE lag and when I'm outdoors i get medium lag :|

what graphical settings are you playing at?

[Shadowed Watcher 183]

what graphical settings are you playing at?

 

My computer automatically sets my graphics to "high" but I lower them to "low" and my resolution to... umm 1280x720.. it makes a big difference in lag but I still experience a LOT of it when inside a dungeon... I can't even get through that Bleak Falls Barrows quest because the lag is so bad inside that place. I even overclocked my pc by 7% and it still lags really bad.

you might want to try and going into advanced setting for graphics and toying around with the settings

I went into advanced, dropped everything to the lowest available options and when I tried playing it again it still had bag lag where I was at... but just for kicks I turned it on in windowed mode and it runs 100% fine in windowed.... although the window is tiny :| But I guess I could play it that small.

[Bohtty 1,775]

Hmmmm I used to play... I was a level 41 Khajiit. I got bored of the game and heres why:

My bow had an attack of 273 and so, as a theif, I could one shot ANYTHING including dragons if I got them from behind. I quit after I killed everyone in Solitude. The armor I used was some crazy high def nightingale armor. This was all on Master Difficulty mind you. So once I finished the main story line (which was a joke btw, the last boss was a push over) and did all of the brotherhood quest line and thieves guild quest line I just stopped. Nothing was a challenge anymore : The lack of variety in monsters made my quitting even quicker.

well sometimes you have to sacrifice to play at a decent rate

 

and if it works it works

Whelp... guess I'll have to play it tiny then :|... now... to figure out this damn puzzle lol...

[MyLittleCell 106]

Ha i have a simaler problem with skyrim. My computer chould "theoretically" run skyrim. But aparently, according to dell i only need 32 Vram. The rest of my specs are fine

[Nouth 496]

I used to play skyrm like you (don't expect what you are expecting.) but then I stopped enjoying it at about level 30. I realised that there is hardly any roleplay in that game. Things that you say to npc's just doesn't really affect anything much, you can only make several important decisions yourself (join Stormcloaks/Empire ? Kill the talking dog/ let him live? Destroy DB / join DB).

I find this problem in almost all today RPGs. The only one that was good in this matter and that I've played was Dragon age, which had a really good use of dialogues, the things you said did influence how the npc will threat you in the future, there were over 10 different endings possible. But combat system was awful in that game :/.

[Gatekeeper Babylon 116]

Oh god yes.

 

My guy is a Level 51 Khajiit assasin with 100 points in sneak and pickpocket. I've done over 300 thieves guild quests, and hit my 178th Dark Brotherhood quest (not counting the initial ones). As for gear, I kept my Nightingale armor and improved it whenever I could.

 

I use a legendary Ebony sword of Devouring in my left hand, and the legendary Blade of Woe in my right hand (Quality of an ebony dagger, legendary, with devouring on it).

 

I've completed all the Stormcloak quests, and I got so bored I killed Ulfric. I've completed all achievments, except beating Alduin in Sovernguard.

 

So yeah.

Merging was better than locking the new one.
