The Elder Scrolls Megathread

It's boring, really boring, but I put a few mods to increase populations/companions/increase enemy encounters etc. Still painfully boring, but the sense of exploration remains.

The main issue I have is the graphics.

ive played too many modern games and it feels yukky.

[Littledude]

I'd agree with boring, the combat was way too slow paced

I like this, but at the same time I don't.
I only don't because TES games, since Morrowind, have all had voice acting, and it would be very odd were it suddenly done away with.
I do because the game is hardly immersive any more, what with the same three people voicing each race. It was certainly a step up from Oblivion, but until they can get unique voice actors for each and every NPC in the whole entire game, it just won't be enough.
So sometimes it is better to just not have any voice acting at all. See The Legend of Zelda.

It works, Google Chrome is just stuff. Someone told me Google breaks if the URL ends in punctuation. The above quote was modified, should work.

Hahaha. Its funny how stupid you are.

[Man 2]

I'd like if I could hear all of the music in the soundtrack in-game.
Maybe I'm just not listening hard enough.

[MegaScientifical]

You have to take any punctuation off the end of the URL for this stuff to work in Chrome. This includes periods, commas, "s, etc

I wasn't pulling it out of my ass.

[Tylale]

Yeah no. It works just fine. You just somehow managed to forget up linking it in a way I can't even find when quoting you.

[MegaScientifical]

It works fine in Firefox. Does it still not work for you on Chrome?

[Tylale]

The link works, but only if I copy it out the text. You broke it somehow when you tried to post it.
Edit: Working now, but you still had it forgeted up somehow. Also chrome is the best browser. Its indisputable. I used to use firefox, but I switched to chrome long ago. I had to start using it for this class and holy stuff is it bad. It takes 15x longer at least to start up and probably 10x longer to open a new tab and search. Usually it starts being unresponsive when I make a new tab as well.

[MegaScientifical]

Which is untrue. But enough of this.

[Tylale]

That response didn't make any sense, and you're an idiot. But I'll stop since this is an Elder Scrolls thread.

What are some cool mods for Skyrim that enhance gameplay, or add more things to do? I haven't bought it yet, but I plan on getting it on Steam.

[MegaScientifical]

I recommend SkyUI, Better Sorting, and possibly Quality World Maps. SkyUI redoes the GUIs to be much... better to use. Sorting options, better arrangement, arranging by value vs weight and such. Better Sorting renames many items to sort better, arrange nicer, and be clearer to understand when you're rushing in battle. Quality World Maps adds road lines, so you know where roads are.

Edit: To use SkyUI, you'll need to run the game using SKSE: http://skse.silverlock.org/ It allows mods to have more control or somethin'.
