Ebay is where I found both of them. Amazon has them too, but Ebay tends to be cheaper, from what I've seen in the past. If you're getting Redguard you're going to want a copy with the original manual/guidebook thing - it's not just a manual, but it's a lorebook too. It contains a comic (which is available on the ES website for free now), and also a version of the Pocket Guide to the Empire with some rarer lore (i.e. the only known official art of a Sload).

This is just a random interest thing, but which is your least favourite city in Skyrim? Mine's Markarth. Between The Taste of Death and two Forsworn Quests I just want to burn the entire place down.

[thomasgold19]

Mine is Dragon Bridge. I have no idea why buy i just want to kill everyone in that town. I usually save their murders until I have enough money to pay for my justified execution of most of the town.

[Fortune86]

Aren't the guards there a bunch of thieves? I think I remember something about them refusing to pay at the inn.

[thomasgold19]

No idea but I really hate the town. It has a cool bridge though.

I am waiting to get a screwdriver and 4gb of ram for my laptop so then my hot hot hot (tobuscus ref) character on the pc can continue, and I can add more mods to it :3

[temposhark]

I absolutely love Skyrim. I'm a fan of heavy modding, too, but the mods I use are all geared towards increasing realism. What kind of mods do you guys tend to download? If any?

 

On the subject of my least favorite city: I don't like Markarth either. I don't know why, something about the way everyone is just passively rude to you. Especially if you're an elf ;-;

I just returned to Skyrim after an absence of about 9-10 months. Installed a few visual mods. I usually don't care to download mods that change gameplay. I dunno why, I just don't. I used to never download mods, but then I got a new computer that could actually run the game at a good framerate. I had to put an FPS limiter on so the physics don't freak out when I get >60 fps.

What mods do you use?

Also Markarth is one of my favourite cities. I love how it's built. ._. I've never actually noticed people being rude, and I'm an Argonian. Maybe I'm just being oblivious.

[Fortune86]

Whi is the best follower for a thief/assassin character? I won't want them all the time, just until I have a house to store my spoils and can open most locks on my own.

[temposhark]

@Ali'i Makani Pahili

Mostly I use different immersive armors and weapons, some texture updates, SkyUI (a staple mod, I swear), and Hunterborn (I make a LOT of Bosmers ). And I dunno man, people in Markarth are always just like..."Keep to yourself, ELF." Like they'd just rather I be elsewhere.

 

@Fortune86

I like the dunmer woman in the Drunken Huntsman. I always forget her name, but she works well for me Faendal is good in general early on - or so I'm told. I don't usually use followers because they always seem to give me away when I'm sneaking up on people :/

[Fortune86]

Oh Jenassa? I had forgotten about her. Yeah she is pretty cool.

 

Which (buildable) house is it that's pretty close to a giant camp? It's the only one I want to bother with because I want my own garden for alchemy and a quick way to level light armor.

[Dawnwing]

That's Heljarchen Hall, in The Pale, northeast of Whiterun. Lakeview Manor is the one in Falkreath Hold south of Riverwood, and Windstad Manor is in Hjaalmarch near marshes.

[Fortune86]

That's the bunny!

 

I keep getting Heljarchen and Hjaalmarch confused >.<

 

Thanks.

[Dawnwing]

I had to look up the other two names. I've built them all, but Heljarchen is my favorite, so that's the only one I remember.

 

I've just ordered the Dark Brotherhood hoodie from the Bethesda store. They've got a sale this weekend: 20% off and free US shipping for orders of $35 or more. Also, the Hero's Guides to the Elder Scrolls Online (a set of 3 lorebooks) is on sale for $60 instead of $100.

OMG I love that hoodie! I have no money though D:

 

Went to Dawnstar this morning (was planning on raiding the secret chest for iron ore/ingots) when a Blood Dragon attacked. I managed to kill it okay, but when the locals all rushed over to look I noticed something very odd about one of them. Gjak was swimming up the road. I ran down to meet him and watched him 'paddle' the entire way to the dragon bones. Even when he got there he was floating in mid-air like he was just keeping afloat.

Wish you had that on video.

[Fortune86]

So do I.

 

I really wish the PS3/Vita had a 'record' function. There are so many things I'd tape.

[zorua9]

any good pc skyrim and morrowind mods?

[Fortune86]

Why do Housecarls never sleep? All Lydia did was sit and drink her liver away and now that I have Iona all she does is eat bread and sneak into my bedroom when I'm sleeping.

I've tried locking Lydia out.

 

That woman cannot take a hint.

[Fortune86]

I might make Lydia the steward at my Heartfire house. Then at least when I use her to buy wood I can pretent she is actually getting out of the house.

So I downloaded an unofficial DLC made by modders and I have to say, it just looks so beautiful [1] [2].

 

These people have some serious talent. For anyone wondering, the mod is called "Moonpath to Elsweyr" and follows a story about travelling Khajiit traders.

[Fortune86]

I kind of regret my choice in spouse. I know you can only one per game, but if I was to *ahem* 'divorce' Ghorbash, what happens to the body? I've never killed a follower/house person before (at least on purpose).

I tried that mod a while back but I couldn't tolerate the voice acting and the wonky models of some of the new creatures. Voice acting is really a make-it-or-break-it thing for me when it comes to user-created Skyrim content.

[zorua9]

I am going to try and get eso in pisical form, but my laptop has no disc drive, can I redeem it online you can do with WoW?
