Quick question:

I want to know, is there anyway to decrease the cost of the Solitude Manor, paid 25k for it lol. Just wondering before I play my next marathon is there anyway to get the cost reduced so as to save some gold, or was my 25k investment what stands. Thanks.

Maybe because no one found a way to decrease the price of the house?

Seriously I've found no way to do it.

Ah k, well thanks for the input lol, I will assume for this it is not possible...now if you will excuse me I have dragons to slay. Also nothing more fun than killing a blood dragon/Volkun @ level 10...abusing terrain/AOE/summons and most importantly eternal shout (one that makes you etheral)

And of course none of that is mandatory.  You make enough gold to get by with quest rewards that you don't even need to pick up every fur boot and steel gauntlet in a dungeon.

People make the game what they want it to be.


It depends. Do you want that 600 damage Daedric Legendary sword that has multiple enchantments? Then you would have to do a lot of smithing and enchanting. Either that or pay your way to level 100 smithing and enchanting then level your abilities up respectively with the perks you get. I'm sorry but even getting that much money to do that is difficult as all hell since you have to spend more and more money for every single level. It isn't mandatory but most players who play this game will want that **** awesome weapon that they can make.

It isn't even mandatory to take everything with you but many people who play Bethesda games like to horde equipment non stop and it sometimes get annoying to the point where you might as well mod your game so you have unlimited storage.


Well and it's right from my poin of wiew if you want great gear you have to learn how to make it is like a prize..In fact i hated in oblivion the fact at higher level you find bandit with armors like full deaedric with high enhanced weapons.. For me this is a improvment and make things less easer..

But again it's not necessary to have crafting skill you can enjoy the game also whitout it..

What i want say is skyrim can statisfate different kind of player for example..

You don't like to micromanage? Well you don't need to you are able to play even whitout crafting for sure you don't have higher powerfull weapons but you are able not only to afford all ennemy but you have the chance to find enhanced weapons on ennemy.. But at difference from oblivion there are a more rare....

You love to plan things and prepare to the battle? you can and in a very efficent manner by raising your crafting skill and make your own stuff..

Who put effort on crafting must have advantages or crafting is useless..

But the thing that ****** me off is people that complain that crafting is present and necessary to have ultra powerfull weapon.. Its useless to complain that because ok you don't like it but who spends perks on crafting deserves to have a prize in this case more powerfull items..

If you raise too much crafting instead of the combat skills your game will become more harder because even if you have strong stuff you face strong ennemy and you have not the efficent combat skill to afford them...

You can make a daedric armor but if you have not skills or perk to wear it its a bit useless..

So.. complain about the presence of micromanagement is pretty useless

You can also find and pay npc to train you if you don't want reaise them by yourself


This isn't complaining this is stating how it can get tedious (it is a lie to say it can't be). Also I addressed the whole paying for the skills. That can easily leave you broke very quickly.  I like the smithing but it isn't something that is continuosly enjoyable. Its more akin to ME2 mining. While it isn't really bad to me and sometimes I rather just depelete planets than go out into the galaxy but when you want those upgrades it takes a crap load of time. The only difference is you don't gain experience through mining.


ok now i see your point of wiew but just for clarification not here i presume.. But really someone maded complain like

This game is too much big
Why i must craft to have better item

Thos complain can't be serious lol...

But if someone like you say me that sometimes is tedious  raise craftable skill or also even smithing i say.. Yes sometimes is... like you have to creaft the daedric armor and you don't know how to find daedra heart's but.. Say that is a thing if someone say.. I don't like it should never existed i laught..

Again is a feature and its not mandatory you can enjoy it or not.. and yes sometimes is tedious but you can have great reward if you spend time on them like it should be..

If you're really desperate you can use exploit.

When they ask you if you want to buy a new home - right after you reply "I'll take it" open some near drawer and put all your money there. After the convo ends take your money back

Here is example:

In fact i don't see this problem... Honestly i think this game can offer much to both gamers.. Hardcore and Casuals.. But i don't understeand why someone complain if some features are present..Smith isn't necessary if you don't want.. Also Alchemy o Enchanding.. So i don't see the problem..

The problem is when someone comes out claming Fun as a common feature when is total subjective..

Someone have fun just mashing buttons..
Other like me have fun also with micromanagement



I couldn't have put it better myself to be honest with you there. After all your right. Skyrim has enough stuff to do in the game. But you aren't forced to do them. Just like your not forced to do each and every quest whether ir be the various faction quests, misc quests or any other quests in the game. I think Skyrim is great this time around even with it's flawys. Love the fact that I can make my own weapons and enchant them how I want to enchant them. To me this makes the game more personable.

And I like to place my armor on tables, put food on plates, that kind of thing.B)

I cleared out my kitchen table in Riften, and am now placing  all the contracts on my character's life on it instead.  I'm up to 4, now.  2 from the Dark Brotherhood, one from Anise (I stole something from her cabin near riverwood and she hired Thugs to kill me.  They failed of course, and I found  the contract on  one of their bodies).   I also have one from a "fisherman" I stole from.  Same thing.

Oh man, it was so easy to abuse the spell creation system in Morrowind - you could practically become a freakin' god, and possibly even break the game entirely using it.

It's no wonder they took it out, TBH.

There's nothing tedius about Crafting  in this game, unless you deliberately exploit it to fast level - but that would be your own fault.  Crafting is  fun  because there's 3 seperate rewards for doing it.  1) leveling  2) gear  3) profit.  That's more than we can say walking into another dungeon and killing  another 50 draugirs (for example), just so you can level up your combat skills and maybe collect some bowls of bone meal, yes?

Also I addressed the whole paying for the skills. That can easily leave you broke very quickly.  

Is that a complaint?   What did you expect?   Education is expensive.  Try paying college tuition.  lol  That can leave you broke too.  It's the same concept.  But   thankfully,  Skyrim's system insures that you don't need to do it.  Ever.

I made another couple of characters, as my primary finished the Main and Civil War quests, leaving random and unexplored quests for the most part.

My problem is that my second PC was becoming much like my first, so I am forcing myself to forgo Archery, and use Magic instead if possible. I thought of going as a robed mage, but Alteration uses far more perks than Light Armor, and I would rather have more than 60 seconds for armored magic and prefer to save the Magika for other spells.

And the third was going to become a 2H Warrior, but I have difficulty judging targets in a time of battle; keep attacking allies. I had this problem with my Archer as well, but was able to use Conjure spells when forced into Friendly Fire scenarios.

As for the micro-mgt debate, it seems to be completely optional. I avoided most of it; choosing to try Smithing for improving weapons and armor. But Alchemy and Enchanting were generally wasted on me, but can see where some would like crafting Legendary or better gear. And as long as it is optional, I am fine with it.

Huge Problem in Oblivion: Character faces.

Skyrim gets huge points for me in making faces that dont make me curl up and have nightmares.

Instead of: OMG WTF IS THAT!
I get: Oh hey that actually looks alive...

I honestly was disgusted with how my Oblivion PCs looked and if I had to say it, I think that Skyrim has one of the better face makers around with few exceptions.

I agree as this could also be the case in Oblivion. But if they were going to take it out they really should have scaled and leveled the spells.

So if someone is a bit annoyed about something being a bit tedious its complaining? Sure I can state something that I may not like in a overall not bad system but it isn't really much of a complaint or whine. At least that is how I see it.

Crafting is not as fun as you know fighting and exploring. Both are fun but skryim isn't a game I got for crafting. If the crafting was more fun than exploring then something was likely lacking in the exploration part.

Crafting like I said is enjoyable but not something I want to be stuck doing. No I don't do it for leveling I do it so I can make the best equipment. After a while it can get pretty annoying about as annoying as getting burnt out exploring the hundreth dungeon the difference is you are actually exploring in the latter.

Now is this a bad thing about Crafting? Not really but it is something I can really have fun with consistently.

Now you are seeing complaints where there is none. Someone stated that is another easy solution to not basically going through the multiple steps of smithing. Not really since it takes a while to get that much gold to get up to 100. It is best to level up the lower levels but to get higher its better to do it without spending money.

Damn, I feel you. Had something similar happen to me, well not really, but I lost my first character which was level 47 a while ago and had to start over. Sucked. D:

The Thieves Guild has the best storyline IMO, don't give up!

It really does although the Companions guild makes you feel like less of a douchebag. Also werewolves are awesome.

You're stating an opinion as fact.  It's very difficult to seperate  one from the other.    They're essentially the same thing.  They're both fun, and Skyrim  deliberately combines the two to blur the lines. (how many times have you come across crafting stations inside a dungeon you're exploring?  Or found crafting materials  as the primary loot?  Or hell, discovered a  Mine specifically designed for blacksmithing?)  It Happens. All. The. Time.  It's half the  game.  

Oh, and I'll take it a step further and make my own bold claim now:  If Skyrim  didn't let me create and customize   my own gear, I'd probably be sick of  playing it by now.  There's only so much fun to be had  if you're on your second playthrough, and   you end up finding the exact same crap you found the first time around, with no option to change things up.  THANKFULLY they put in a ridiculously  huge, dynamic and nearly limitless crafting system in Skyrim.

I fully agree with you I've made lots of money by making potions armor and weapons and the like. Heck it paid for my house in Solitude.<G> And I've now got enugh built up from doing quests I can buy about 2 or 3 more house. Got to love it. Besides I look at it this way when it's all said and done and she's ready to retire she can always either be an alchemist or a smith and still make money.<LOL>
