Well I think I spoke too soon. Because I went from being able to play for over 6 hours without a single crash to now not being able to go 20 minutes... Still shuts computer off completely... This isn't my computers fault this is their end.

Huh...I guess my friend was right.
Just listen for a bit.

The Dovahkin is basically an expy of Doctor Who.
Think about it.

You just randomly wander about the setting.
Picking up and finding random people from all walks of life who follow you around
You walk into huge plots and grand sweeping tales almost by accident
You cause massive amounts of damage and change just by walking around.

You always show up just in time to change something, or prevent a disaster.
The Dragons share a few similarities with the Daleks. Like both of them being scared out of their minds by only one person.

While it kind of comes of as flimsy you do indeed have certain things that overlap between Skyrim and Doctor Who.

Damn now someone needs to make a Tardis mod.

Come on now that would be freaking epic.

Just did Forelhost and I think it is the best crypt/dungeon/mini-quest in the game. The story is interesting (esp. the part with the children), the map is well done (and non-linear), the traps are legit scary, and it is hard if you save it for later - I met so many draugr deathlords, I walked out of there with:

2 ebony battleaxes
2 ebony bows
5 ebony greatswords
1 ebony mace
9 (!) ebony swords
5 ebony waraxes
1 ebony warhammer
4 ebony shields
And I didn't bother picking up the other stuff.

Whoever designed that deserves a raise!

Yes, powerful summons make all the difference if you aren't using bound weapons. My nightblade is using bound dual swords and he's already at 70-something at level 25. He'll be at 100 in no time. He looks so stylish wielding that purple daedric flame, I love it. Illusion is the one I'm trying to level him in, but Jenassa keeps ruining our sneak attack and so his Fury doesn't have the impact it could. But at least with Illusion you can level by casting Muffle.

He also walks around casting Calm on everyone. The reactions are funny. lol


You do realize that after Calm you can casually walk behind their backs, enter sneak mode and land backstabs?
Rinse, repeat as needed.

^^ You can, but the game isn't challenging that way.

If I recall correctly that is where Rahgot is, surrounded by swarms of Deathlords...which you slash your way through...swarms...of Deathlords even to make it to his swarming chamber!

Fantastic dungeon, fantastic mission: "Siege of the Dragon Cult" given to you by that betraying scumbag Capt Valmir...who at least you get to extract a cold helping of justice from at the end!

Just happen to have a pic of my Dragonborn in Rahgot's chamber for posterity.  Agreed, probably the most memorable side quest in the game.  I carried everything out...in two trips...or maybe it was three.

And don't forget  ~1000  Ancient Nord Arrows!

Forlehost is the only dungeon in skyrim where  you'll find  spirits and draugr archers who drop quivers of arrows ranging from 90-100  in quanity per corpse.

Last night, I started homesteading for my Redguard, Minya. It had been a while, and I had forgotten who she was married to, where she lived, etc. I searched every house I could think of, and never did find her husband. As it turned out, she was married to Farkas.

I decided to go out on a limb, and make another attempt in one of the bugged houses (Winstad Manor, near Morthal). My plan was to only build the entryway, main hall, and bedrooms. My reasoning is that by having less to process, the chances of it locking up would be less. Well, after several hours, knock on wood, it still hasn't locked up. The house is plenty big as it is. I may still add a kitchen, but I think I'm going to avoid the cellar and two extra wings for now.

This time around, I only adopted Runa, and thought I'd see about getting a dog. I paid for Vigilance, and sure enough, he can be your pet. Meeko, too. If you have kids, they will run out when you come home, and ask if they/we can keep it. If you say yes, and that they can hang out with it when you're gone; then tell the dog to "go home", it will stay in the house.

I also tried it with the Dawnguard dogs. If you tell them to go home, they hoof it back to Fort Dawnguard. Ultimately, I gave up on having a dog, though. They bark constantly. Constantly! I did get a chuckle out of Runa, Farkas, and the bard Sonir saying "stupid dog", one right after the other. Then I reloaded. No dog.

So instead, Runa came home with a pet rabbit. She also comments that she's sure there are monsters living in the swamp (I agree). And I realized that Farkas does in fact sleep after you help him cure his lycanthropy. Hooray!

LOL. Not sure I'd want Vigilance as a pet - the diet Banning put him on would make me nervous leaving him around the kids. :unsure:

Gourmet Gaming tackled the snowberry/jazbay/juniper crostata from Hearthfire. I love that site. Such a fun idea.

They're better, for sure, but you can't actually have one as a pet, since they seem to consider Fort Dawnguard home. Image IPB

Nah the kids will keep them. Its just a bug for some folks that it doesn't happen for. Check out the Wiki.

^ Hmm. Well, it seems that I'm the test subject in their crazy experiment, because it didn't work correctly for me.


Some animal followers can be kept as a pet. Confirmed: Vigilance, Meeko, Sceolang(DG), and Bran(DG).

Ahh well, a fox or rabbit are considerably more quiet. We don't really need the protection of a dog anyway, considering that when my Redguard is away, the house will be protected by a housecarl (Valdimar), steward (Vilkas), and husband (Farkas).

I was sad to realize that this was the playthrough where I lost Belrand and Jenassa. *sniffle*

Bugged houses? I have a bugged plot of land! As soon as I entered the plot in The Pale my screen flashed pink/red and I was helpfully informed that my vampiric powers have increased after feeding. I thought this is strange, I'm not a vampire and there's no one around but Meeko. Several seconds later it happens again, my powers continue to grow! So I take a potion of cure disease, no good. I head to Morthal to see Falion, he doesn't recognise me as a vampire and the cure dialogue isn't there, praying at shrines doesn't cure me. I'm being forced to be a vampire against my will, sunlight affects me, I'm feeding off invisible people and no one recognises me as a vampire. I had to reload a save just before finding the plot of land and I was not a vampire then so I can only assume that it's the land itself that's bugged/haunted.

^ That happened to me A LOT pre-Hearthfire. In fact, it always happened on my werewolf Dawnguard characters, when Draugr shouted at her. I think that's a left-over bug from Dawnguard.

Sometimes I even get that message if I am playing as a vampire, and Serana is with me. I can be in the next room, and the screen goes red. I don't get it.

That's weird, though. I haven't any issues at all with the house or the plot in the Pale.

^ That's very odd and it both makes sense and doesn't make sense for my situation. I'd just come from a Draugr crypt where I did the white phial quest and got the first word of marked for death so I was being shouted at by Deathlords. But the save I reloaded was between that and finding the plot of land, thats why I blamed the land.

Is there a cure?

^ No, no cure that I know of. I've been able to get around it by hanging back behind doors or pillars, to avoid getting shouted at by Draugr, and letting my follower take the direct hit. It's kinda awful, but it's the only way I've avoided vampirism since Dawnguard came out.

The really weird thing is that that stuff doesn't start happening until after you finish the main Dawnguard quest. At least in my experience.

Ah hell, I'm not liking the sound of that. Is it common for it to happen so long after being shouted at? I did go and fight a dragon between fighting the Death Lord's and the vampirism incident, dragons shout too...*head desk*

^ I don't think that's ever happened to any of my characters from Dragon shouts. Just Draugr, iirc.

Oh, Bugthesda. Please fix your DLC!
