Skyrim?

[Belose]

Yeah, I got it at midnight, too...but I spent an hour in character creation because I kept hitting the wrong fricking button and had to start thru the intro each time...heh....but it looked soooo good I didn't care, actually did a quest before going to bed... and I have a HDTV..wish I had surround sound, too, so I can tell when the beasties are behind me!!!!

[Nysan]

Behind you? You mean you don't switch between first and third person view? Third-person has saved me a lot of grief.

I got Skyrim yesterday thanks to a nice room mate...I REALLY REALLY like that the gameplay is very similar to Fallout 3, and it's SO PRETTY.

Stupid things my husband has said since getting Skyrim:

One thing I've learned about my horse. He does not like jumping off cliffs. Disagrees entirely.

I've murdered eight people, stolen six horses, and stolen 375 items. (Like 10 mins into the game.)

Did you hear that? All followers of Talos are assmen.

NPC: Hey! You! Over here! Hey! Help!
Husband: I better save quick before I kill this guy.

My horse is chasing down a bandit! He's literally flying in the air to kill a bitch!

I killed a bandit and got no scalp. You see what I did there?

*dying animal noise*
Me: Did you kill your horse!?
Him: No, not this time. I killed a chicken. It's okay because they have meat. But I can't find it now. I killed it so hard I flung it somewhere.
Me: You lost your dead chicken? Who does that?

Why am I moving so slow? Oh, my inventory is full. I guess that's logical. I have 16 wicker packs, 27 pairs of boots, 5 tunics, 17 knives ... etcetc.

Fact, all medieval women wear yellow undergarments, see? *zooms in on some chick he stripped and stole the clothing of*

I paid this chicks 500 gold to follow me around and I don't even know what the heck I'm doing.
10 mins later: Oh look! I have a dog!
Me: You bought a dog?
Him: No, some old dude was giving away free dogs, so now I have this new horse and a dog. Plus my friend I hired. I don't even know where she is.

Me: Why do you keep doing that, jumping off stuff with your horse?
Him: I'm trying to get where I'm going! I'm a cat, I don't give a fuck!

Dead quiet in the room when suddenly: I think there's a dragon in this direction. I'm NOT messing with a dragon.

It's called a cave bear, but apparently it's NOT IN A CAVE.

I made it to a city! Oh god! This is a lake!

Well, the lizard guy wasn't very friendly. But if I was a lizard guy, I wouldn't be either.

Me: You gave him money!? (I sound disgusted when he pays a beggar)
Him: I gave him one gold.
Me: ONE GOLD!?
Him: What! First you didn't want me to now you're mad?
Me: It's one gold! Go big or go home!
Him: He can't even get like, a piece of cheese with this.

NPC sounding desperate: You! You help people, it's what you do right?
Him: It's not what I do. I run in town and kill people. And steal shit.

Me: Can't you just steal that?
Him: Yes, but it will put my reputation down.
Me: Who cares??
Him: I only steal at night. Strict rule.
Me: What even is that!?
Him: The rule of the me

Him: I want to buy a single po-tay-tooooe
NPC: Would you like anything else?
Him: Nope. Just me and my po-tay-toe

Little kid NPC: Hey! Wanna play tag!?
Him: NO!
Him: Last thing you want to do is play tag with a fucking TIGER!

I'm going to apply my dog to be a bard. His name is Vigilance.

[Isolrem]

He sounds like he's having fun.

Waaait, was I stick figure #1 in that comic?!

"Yeah, I can make daedric armor, but that's way too mainstream. I just abused blacksmithing so that my iron armor is as good as daedric armor."

[Nysan]

Fallen into the same habits I have in FK... ignore questing and craft, craft, craft. Smith this, alchemy brew that, disenchant these. It may be weeks before I clear most of my quests, but when I get there I'll be wearing some real shiny gear!

[Brar]

I hate you all.....

[Aldren]

Level 42...Just made my first full set of improved and enchanted dragonplate AND dragonscale armour. I'm a bloody werewolf, and have found I rock at killing dragons while in Beast Mode. I am so overly impressed with this game that I wholeheartedly apologize to the entire FK cast and crew that it's been devouring my time. 55 hours and counting taken away from FK.

Wearing armor of any sort is for twinks. It is much better to play the game naked. Dying in one hit to everything teaches you the importance of strategy, dodging, and minions

[Belose]

Maybe I've been too busy questing to make werewolf...only did one job for the companions, and that's where I learned about em. Have to think about doing some more stuff for them...when I get my game back next week...

[Lathander]

So, what can FK take from the appeal of Skyrim to improve our own game?

[Selveem]

Crafting, enchantment, and alchemy. *nodnod*

[Hrosskell]

Big ole Nords. Lots of 'em.

[Gwain]

Dragon shouts. Barrel hats.

[Nysan]

Ironic moment: Wander around the wilderness with t.v. on in the background. Random dragon spawn just as the South Park rerun on the t.v. yells "It's coming right for us!"

[Dapher]

I have been caught by the Skyrim trap!! Thank the Lord for black Friday sales!

[Nysan]

So an npc annoys me, but I want to stay friendly with the town guards, what to do... what to do. Oh yeah, cast fury on the npc, watch him take a swing at a guard, loot npc's house after he's dead. Repeat process on npc's wife after she sends assassins to kill me for npc's dead.

Annoying npcs killed: 2.
Guards irritated: 0.
Crimes committed: 0.
No more npcs talking down to me: Priceless.
