I got to 100 almost only by "ransacking" Solitude once. Yes Quicksave and Quickload "exploit".

Nice, it just gets a little bloviate IMHO. Look also at this:

You are ignoring the fact that Bethesda intended you to do said dragon killing quest before you went anywhere else. You cant take something the game devs didn't intend for you to do as canon. I find your attempts to weasel out of the truth to be cute in a childish way. Dude, by all respect, now calling "childish" and what not. You're a just puny fool. The main plot, the way it is intended walks you right into whiterun, before you kill a dragon, and albeit the khajiit are banned from whiterun, no guard says anything...

Actually, if YOU THINK ABOUT IT, this is very untrue, if you THINK ABOUT IT. Since you can enter any city freely before you kill that dragon, and other than alduin no one knows you are a dragonborn until you kill one. Just do what you shout and THINK ABOUT IT.

Skyrim horses are just different, they got all the forward and advancement mindset into them, they just refuse to stand or even go backward. (I had a horse taken from one of the forts I took over, funny thing always wanted to walk back to fort, so no matter where I fast traveled to, I always saw the back of my horse going someplace else)

Oh welcome back! You left me 3 weeks alone here, without any mention where you go and why. And you live that enormously dangerous life, you could have been dead! Do you know how it feels, sitting here for weeks, wondering if you ever come back, or are just too busy? You didn't even sent me a letter! YOu know that courier that visits you, why you never give him a letter. And honestly no place in Skyrim is further away than 1 day worth of travel. Might have visited me from time to time. Could have at least brought me some flowers. No all you come here, and want the profit of the store. Bleh! Could use it for taking the cart at least once in a while to come back, but what you spent it on? I can't take it anymore!

This is the usual vicious circle, they are segregated, thus they do business rather with them selves, or none, because well most prefer costumers prefer native trades. Then people claim they do nothing and segregate further. Same with the Kahjiit, they may not enter the cities, or do any legitimate work, because in Skyrim they are all considered thieves and criminals. With no options of legitimate work or endorsement they come thieves and criminals. And no, I won't let the argument go through that the player/dragonborn Kahjiit or Dunmer doesn't get any problems - thats just game mechanics and as discussed and undesirable weakness of the game. I would have more replay value if any of the in game discussed issues would apply.

I too suppose, that when the dragonborn dies, the souls are free for resurrection again. (like I also believe that souls captured and enchanted get to be freed, once the enchant is used up)

Maybe one day speech synthesis will get so good, it doesn't sound awfully robotic anymore.

Dude, way to go aggressive back. Just makes me question your ability to single out a single parameter. /ignore.

Second image was done with another soul gem.

the worst: the dragonborn, cannot play an instrument, beside being called a bard, after been to olafs tomb...

With enchanting 100% and all the perks, you can enchant up to +40% better prices onto an amulet.

Entering Blackreach.

I didn't follow your twos geek battle for a while already :geek:

Random useful tip: Smithing! (Makes you overpowered and brings in a lot of gold) (Tip only useful, if you do not want to have figthing challenges :)

Little is know about the Thalmor, and they depicted as the protoclassical Antagonists. But I'd like to have a little more info on their causes, they current society, and who rules them to what aim before ordering a genocide on 'em.

Especially since they chose racism as a Stormcloak-theme. I agree the usualy story writers rule, "show dont tell" is seriously amiss here, going so far as the Stormcloak-defenders on the forums arguing its all just lies and imagination ... :/

Being attacked by (relative to you weaker) assissins is so much of a gaming clichè to cater for some "encounters" I actually didn't give much thought about this while playing.

On the other hand, as known Legion officer, the player comes at night to Windhelm, in legion armor, walks right into the Palace of Kinds, and goes back to Ulric private Sleeping chambers, Dagger drawn. Nobody says anything. Probably they just trust the important flag to be set on Ulfric, to be too important than to be simply assassinated.

Can you elaborate on t hat, faifh? Dungeon Siege marketed a lot with having a continues design, with no map borders and doors. Albeit to be fair, they also had no items you could drop around, so the loading time of a cell of house interior with many items in them does not apply. Additionally on places that entered dungeons they had almost always an elevators that worked in realtime. So why you watched the elevator going, it could load the rest of the level. It was more or less just some trickery. While I see the problem of having all hous interiours in one map with the many, many items a house has, I don't see a real benefit for town maps to be seperate. I mean, it works free, and it works well for not so main cities can be on world map without having to be seperate map. And for the most dungeons, that are typically 3 maps in Skyrim, why? I really don't see that much of a benefit of not putting the whole dungeon in the map.

While I agree with the limitations of being able to load a cell on the fly, I disagree with your very last statement. Thats a thought-terminating cliché, especially when the argument was "what could be done better for the next game" to answer with "Don't like it? get a mod." is just a cross-purpose.

I guess its the event where you are uncovered as dragonborn (killing the dragon at whiterun) The Thalmor want the dragonborn be dead before he comes up with anything, and supposedly also contract the Brotherhood.

Dungeon Siege 1 could do this 2002.

I think they should finally abolish "maps". (not the map, but different computer screens). Yes it saves some RAM to have less in memory, but really 2012 it should be possible to have a single map only and no longer any loading screens. You walk into the house, and just walk into a house. No need to load a new "map". Same with dungeons. Can't they just be caves in the world map? Why again the needs for map levels? IMHO this is an artefact of historic development that finally should been said goodbye to. What I would also like to see, is the game characters judging your character by your action, like Ultima 4 did, ignore a beggar, and you lose "generous" tag. (been seen at) running away from a fight, loose bravery rating. etc.
