Yeah the Thalmor sent Justicars after me.  Saw the order on one of their corpses and I am considered an enemy of the Thalmor and I can't for the life of me figure out why.  I have been staying out of that conflict for the most part.  Hell at this point with all the Forsworn i've killed they should be thanking me.

I've had them and the Dark Brotherhood send thugs after me. I have no idea what I did, but their armor is coming in handy.

Ah. Then I must be wrong about the time or maybe they've changed it in Skyrim.

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out if it's a glitch.  If it is, kind of makes picking an Argonian or using equipment with enchantments that allow you to breathe underwater useless.

There's no breath meter, but I have taken damage and nearly died from trying to stay underwater too long in Skyrim. I wouldn't be surprised if its tied to your stamina, but I haven't experimented enough.

Whats weird is you get the loud gasp for air when you swim to the surface even as an ARGONIAN lol.

I stumbled upon an underwater area soon after leaving the tutorial area and I died several times from lack of breathing.

Oh that's probably what happened to me when fighting the dragon in Rorikstead- I used a shout on it and all the guards turned on me. Actually that might have been my Nord battle cry, I don't remember.

It was funny, the dragon just turned its head and stared at me.

So far I've crafted every bit of the Daedric set I need minus the armor itself. Once I create that I'll begin upgrading them to Legendary status and I'll be the most badass man in Skyrim.

Probably because you are switching from breathing through gills from behind the ears, to using your actual lungs.

I think for my next playthrough, I'm not going to buy any magic items or spell tomes from merchants.

It's a lot more satisfying when you find them as rewards for exploring dungeons. (or enchant them yourself)

Some of my more intense Dragon encounters when I wasn't in a city to have help around.





And the deadliest duo in all of Skyrim



Also, since I stopped using Fraps and just used F12 for screenshots, the game hasn't crashed to the desktop once. Could be coincidence but just thought I'd say it.

Lydia just pulled some awesome staff of frost out of her ass. I never gave her one, but I'm in the bowels of a dungeon and suddenly she's just standing there pot shotting enemies and killing them with it before they get to us.

Do Companions level on their own and upgrade their gear in this game?

She probably picked it up.  NPCs will pick stuff off the floor and use it.  I'm a little nervous about all the gear I have strewn around my "dorm room."  I don't trust the containers yet, so I've been dropping stuff.  Last night Belmyra or whatever her name is, came in to talk to me, picked up a potion I had dropped and said something like "oh, you dropped this- good thing I was around to find it" and gave it to me.  I wonder if other NPCs will just walk off with stuff!

If you are playing on PC, and are really worried about your stuff, just use the console commands to lock the door.

Nah... even with the perma-underwater breathing helmet I still could get the loud gasp for air. hehe

Yep, I'm fighting with three wolves, going at it with shield and axe, and next thing I know fire streams over my shoulder and two of these burst into flames, and I think immediately: Oh s#!+t, a Dragon!  I turned around and there's Lydia standing with a fire staff in her hand, where she had previously used nothing other than shield and sword or a warhammer.  Come to find out, she picked it up off the corpse of a necromancer in a fort we'd just cleared.

She's now dual weilding with a stave and axe.

Minoans, Indus Valley, Nan Madol, Goblekli Tepe, Peruvian civilizations prior to the Incas...

Minoans- adopted Greek culture, not exactly big nor mysterious

Indus Valley - got me there, but not exactly huge outside of India, proably not for India either

Nan Madol - not really a huge thing

Goblekli Tepe - not really a huge thing

Peruvian civilizations prior to the Incas - advanced?

**** here's something mythological...Atlantis!

I was talking about historical.

I'm well aware about Atlantis.
I mean, who isn't?


Though Atlantis is still mostly a fiction.

Even Mayan civilizations suffered from mysterious cataclysms before the arrival of the Spanish.

Still didn't disappeared mysteriously.

Spain just wiped out most of them.

Consider the highly literate Greco-Roman civilization that in spite having historical records of their rise and fall, still questions about them linger. Even worse for civilizations that have no have no forms of writing, but left a legacy of organization and sophistication in their ruins. How do you find out how they disappeared?

Yes, there's still don't know a lot about them, but yet we still know a lot about them.


Their fall is like in fictions Tevintur Imperium from Dragon Age( OK, they are still there, but lost most of their turf after Blights) and something that could happen with Empire from TES do to Elves in future( depends how will Bethesda go).

The point I'm making is that fictionalized highly advanced civilizations aren't so much a cliche as they mirror our own personal curiosities about them, which is ultimately integrated in the gameplay experience.

I never complained about that.

I actually like it a lot.

Just said I have a feeling this was done many times since I've seen bunch of cliche's that are new to me in last 2 years.

Its true. Ancient civilisations that disapear are plentiful. But the Elder Scrolls did it before Mass Effect was even conceived.

I never said Mass Effect did it before.

I know TES is was older then Mass Effect.

Yeah, I use her the most, she makes a really good tank.  I give her good armor and accessories. 

[naughty99]

Has anyone noticed that Elemental Fury shout does not seem to work properly for dual weapons?

I only see the visual effect on the right hand weapon.

[DragonRageGT]

LOL at the Hunter and the Fugitive! =)

Urgh, I really don't like the look of the daedric and elven stuff- all that spikiness, blecch. I might end up wearing steel the whole game. I'll be disappointed if there isn't some classic looking Nord set, especially since I like the ancient Nord weapons.

[naughty99]

I really like the look of the basic fur armor. I wore that for probably the first 20-30 hours of playing the game until I found some enchanted elven stuff that was too good to pass up.

(playing about 90% of the time in third person, so the appearance of the armor is a little bit more important than the stats for me.)

I like the appearance of the daedric and dragonbone as well, but I'm playing a stealthy character so I have to stick with light armor.

I liked the steel plate armor, but I just couldn't pass up the stats.

Yeah lydia is great for holding the enemy at bay no matter your class. She will hold the enemy in place while you hit them from range, or she will distract them if you need to heal as a warrior.

Also if you can, deck her out with a melee weapon that absorbs health. That will further enhance her staying power and maybe even save her life if a dragon or some other dangerous creature ambushes you.

Barbas is the best tank in the game but he's too OP because he's invincible, so I had to get rid of him.

Also, he barks in your ear all the time and never shuts up.

He'll push you off a cliff or over an edge if you aren't careful as well lol.

Please name one that went mysteriously.

Khmer Empire. Also Hittians/Hittites and Ancient Puebloans.

The problem with legendary advanced and mighty people and peoples is that (temporally and/or spatially) distant people(s) not only often add magical events and powers, but also continuously put "advanced and mighty" relative to their own time - see how Camelot went from some bare-bones wooden fort to the huge rock structure or how for the longest time depictions of biblical and other myths and past events got continuously updated in their fashion and architecture. And unlike real history, (high) fantasy (and (soft) science-fiction) typically has those legends be true. Anyway, it's an extremely common trope and while I struggle with putting such in any of my own fantasy universes, I really like uncovering bits and pieces of those huge mysteries as a consumer.
