I ended up running away :$

 

Where it had appeared was up a mountain with no where for it to land, so i just kept getting toasted* by it's icy breath.

 

That armour looks nice. I need to get my smithing skills up to scratch, can't even unlock the magical weapons perk yet :$

 

 

 

*what's the opposite of toasted?

Frostied. Duh.

Or sugar-puffed.

I've been playing since about 9am. I need to stop.

Just one more quest...

:D I haven't had the time to play it for even an hour over Christmas :(

 

I was using a random barrel in Riverwood at the start of the game for storage. When I got my room in Winterhold College I stored stuff in there instead. I now have the Archmage's room but I have too much stuff to move over to there.

Haha, this article made me think of sneaking round the guards barracks nicking stuff.

Awesome. I especially like the packet of crumpets being nicked here in my glorious home town.

Aye, its understandable though. Crumpets are fucking ace.

Is no one else playing this anymore, have you all succumbed to the broken quest malaze and given up or are you all still waiting for the Skyrim Second Edition Hard Back Guide from Amazon ?

I haven't had a channce to play Skyrim since Christmas Eve :( This year I plan to go to sleep earlier so I won't get much time to play, it was usually after 11pm I started playing.

Ah.....trying to be normal or game cold turkey as its better known, lol, best of luck with that Chris

It's more about trying to spend some time with my family awake instead of feeling half dead when I come home from work. There was a week in October when I had about 3 or 4 hours sleep every night and by the end of the week I felt really ill.

 

I have no doubt I'll start Skyrim up soon and be back to my old ways. I also expected more talk in this thread after people getig it for Christmas.

I've been playing, although I've been a little bit busy over the last week or so. I have two main characters, a warrior and a mage, both in the low 30s. I got 100 smithing with my warrior and am now sporting a full set of sexy dragonbone armour. :D

How did you get 100 smithing? Iron daggers?

I only just started playing it, I have found out the hard way that you really can't kill a dragon at lvl 6 with a shitty steal sword.

A bit of training from Eorlund Grey-mane and lots and lots and lots of hide bracers.

I got it for Christmas, and playing it far too much, although I'm only on level 15. Also pissed off that I after learning the second shout, I went and killed at least 3 dragons, then learnt a new shout by going up to the highlands place I was told about, and the game told me I need a dragon soul to learn a new shout - I've got THREE!!

 

Just had a great mission killing a load of bandits by sneaking up on them with a bow. Maybe I just never tried it in Oblivion, but it's so much more fun being sneaky than charging straight in. Lydia and the horse are a bit of a pain though, charging in when they're not supposed to.

I went to, umm, I seem to have forgotten what places are called it's been so long since I played :S Top of a mountain with some monks, the ones that don't talk, well, one of them does.

 

Anyway, I asked for a new dragon wall location and they sent me to a location where I can't go yet. It said location added to map, it didn't appear so looks like I need to visit another location so I can find some object to go to the dragon wall place.

Why bother wearing dragonbone armour? It doesn't look as cool as Deadric Armour, and it has lower stats than Daedric Armour.

It really annoyed me, that did. I put a lot of effort in getting my smithing to 100, as you must have done, and then i found out that the last 10 points were basically a complete waste of time and money.
