The Elder Scrolls Megathread

[SpitFir3Tornado]

I completely forgot about hearthfire.
I bought it and then made a new playthrough that I would roleplay through, and I havent even touched skyrim since then.

I find roleplay characters a good thing to do so you don't feel too OP in games.

I made a roleplay character where I was just a humble Nordic woodsman in the Falkreath area. I spent a lot of time hunting, chopping wood, and generally running away from things. To avoid encounters with dangers on the roads, i had to force myself to find shortcuts through clearings, over hills etc.

It really added strategy to the game.

DRAGONBORN RELATED:
I wonder what 'qualification' spears will be. Two handed? I doubt you could dual wield them, so they must be two handed. but they were also thrown. So unless there's more hidden content we haven't seen, i doubt a "throwing weapons" perk tree will pop up.

I wouldnt be surprised if spears had their own tree

[SpitFir3Tornado]

What I was hinting at with 'hidden content' was maybe throwing knives, throwing axes or blowguns. Something in that odd range may argue a reason for having it's own perk tree. Also I hope Bethesda doesn't go "EVEN THOUGHOUR DEAL WITH MICOSOFT IS OVER WE'RE STILL GIVING THEM 1 MOTNH EXCLUSIVE"

They are.

I do that too. I have one playthrough where I never even went through the Dragonborn quest.

I think "spear" qualifies as a two handed weapon.

I think "spear" qualifies as a two handed weapon.

Well, I can imagine spears would be very light compared to a big warhammer. A fighting style that would utilize a spear would also be very different from one that would utilize a heavy two-handed weapon, as well; much more focus on thrusting and stabbing instead of chopping and hacking. I think it entirely possible that spears would get their own tree.

Skyrim doesnt feel like a game that came out a year ago.

Oh, there once was a hero named Ragnar the Red
Who came riding to Whiterun from ole Rorikstead

And the braggart did swagger and brandish his blade
As he told of bold battles and gold he had made

But then he went quiet, did Ragnar the Red
When he met the shield-maiden Matilda, who said;

"Oh, you talk and you lie and you drink all our mead
Now I think it's high time that you lie down and bleed!"

And so then came clashing and slashing of steel
As the brave lass Matilda charged in, full of zeal

And the braggart named Ragnar was boastful no more~
When his ugly red head rolled around on the floor!

also
one of my favourite lines from skyrim:

We're the children of Skyrim, and we fight all our lives.
And when Sovngarde beckons, every one of us dies!

Can't wait for Dragonborn

[Man 2]

Future DLC had better add more bard songs.
