  1. Ask and ye shall receive.... :happy: ....Werewolf Mastery...: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/25392 Thankyou :P I'll give it a go
  2. Ah, I wouldn't mind trying that mod....don't like the Vigilants
  3. Looking in 1st person doesn't look too natural? Do you naturally walk around with your eyes up in the air? :teehee:
  4. I usually play in 1st person as I come from the FPS stable and Elder Scroll games are the only RPG games I have really played, in fact I have only just started to wander around in 3rd person now after 500 hours of gameplay...just to see what it is like....but I can't do combat in 3rd person, as it is disorientating for me
  5. There is a bit of wit and sarcasm to be found in Skyrim, for instance listen to Nazeem's wife Ahlam? in Whiterun. You can also create your own humour....I don't know why but hitting Ancano at the college with the Nightingale Subterfuge and watching the chaos always cracks me up...even after having done it countless times :)
  6. On the couple of occasions I have been attacked by them, sheathing weapons and paying gold to one of the senior members clears it up, but as you have not been recognised as an official member yet this probably won't work. If it was me I would just start a temporary new game with the Live Another Life, and begin as a member of the Thieves Guild, do the extortion thing again and see if it happens to this character as well
  7. I'm a bloke and I play as a bloke, and I don't watch nobody's butt...unless I'm kicking it, If you want a fantasy young fellas....buy a barbie doll and play with it :whistling: Then again it's people's own business what they do with their characters :smile:
  8. Yes I also get sick of a character who becomes a repetitive mass-murderer, so I start a new character who is only going to follow the way of alchemy, but by about level 15 this character also becomes a repetitive mass murderer...... :smile:
  9. Well, if you want to make a character join the Stormcloaks, do what I did, look for a firm reason to do so. Perhaps roleplay that you eventually will challenge Ulfric to a duel for the right to rule Skyrim. I don't think the scene where you meet Ulfric in Sovengarde is him admitting to being a Thalmor stooge. It would seem that he regrets Skyrim being torn apart (much like Rikke, if she is encountered in Sovengarde), and recognises that the War is what led the way to Alduin's return. I didn't write that he did admit anything...I just wrote that he seems to justify the feeling I get. Of course I don't believe he is a willing stooge, more like a pawn. After all if he didn't have honour, he probably wouldn't have ended up in Sovngarde. I was just writing my reasons for feeling the same as the OP, I definitely do not want to debate another Stormcloak VS Empire thread again ;)
  10. I have tried to make mage only characters out of Breton's and Elves...but they always end up being sword or axe carrying warriors. I guess I am just a sucker for decapitation :teehee:
  11. I can relate to the opening post as I too have made Nord characters with joining the Stormcloaks in mind, but always revert to joining the Legion. I have only finished the Stormcloak quest once and it just didn't feel right. Meeting up with Ulfric in Sovngarde seems to justify that feeling, and I have always felt that Ulfric was nothing more than a Thalmor stooge. People relate the war to the American Civil War, but I reckon it may be closer to the Spanish Civil War, with a Stormcloak victory meaning that Skyrim would be taken out of the equation when the Thalmor battle the Empire again, as a neutral secret Thalmor 'puppet' state....keeping the Nords out of the Legion as it's priority. Well that's what's in my imagination anyway :smile:
  12. @Georgiegirl, I have had my Steam account since 2005 and have had the same IP for 3 years and even if I use all my on-peak data allowance, it is slowed to 56k which is still good enough to login to Steam. No I swear that everything I have tried all points to the problem being at the Steam end. I can successfully ping their servers so connectivity isn't the issue, just their talking to my computer, which makes me wonder whether or not my account has been hijacked in some way. Of course at the rate that their Support works it might take me a year to find out..... :sad:
  13. @ Hangarspace, thanks for the advice, but didn't work. @ Georgiegirl, yes I am
  14. I was wondering if anyone could help me with Steam, as it's been about 20 days now since I have been able to access Skyrim :wacko: Steam always has the 'Steam Updating' window showing, and a look at my firewall shows Steam with 60 bytes in and 74 bytes out, day after day after day. No error messages or anything, task manager has Steam as 'running'. The cancel button on the Steam window doesn't work and I have to force it to end via the task manager. I have gone through all the usual things like deleting all files except the apps and exe files unplugging the router, disabling antivirus and firewall, deleting potentially conflicting programs etc. I have had a ticket with Steam support for over 2 weeks now and every 5 or 6 days I just get a copy and paste from them from one of their faqs. I installed Steam on another computer with our internet connection, and it is doing the same thing which is telling me the fault is not with my computer. I use satellite internet as I live in the middle of nowhere. twice Steam started working at about 2am Australian Eastern Standard for about an hour and then reverted back to its perpetual updating state. I have Dawnguard downloaded at 80% for weeks now, it is driving me insane...I have to have my Skyrim fix :sad: When I delete client registry .blob file and restart Steam the newly created .blob file shows as 10,241kb for a split second and then quickly changes to 1kb
  15. I just wish I could play Skyrim. :sad: Steam has been 'updating' now for three weeks at 60 bytes in and 74 bytes out Steam Support isn't supportive and I am at my wits end.....I had Dawnguard at 80% downloaded before Steam decided to stop working and start it's 'downloading hibernation' :(
  16. Yep, was pretty funny :)
  17. I killed him, because....I could :whistling:
  18. Yes I am aware of his work and his point of view, but getting back to the debate about Alduin being a 'god', it seems to me that the gods and daedric princes all have some kind of shrine or monument and followers of some sort. Has Alduin? Other than the misguided dragon priests, I mean
  19. Kirkbride left Bethesda before Morrowind was completed
  20. The Ayleid ruins had a unique atmosphere about them, but did feel bland after a while......as I suppose the Dwemer ones will seem when the next installment comes out, but I agree that Blackreach will take some beating in underground size
  21. Yep...insane loading times alright.....to me THAT would be the glitch right there :smile:
  22. Maybe in your game Alduin is a god, but in my game I sent him to the void...a few times. And to date he hasn't came back yet. The heroes of old celebrate his passing in Sovngarde, the dragons realise he is no more, Paarthurnax feels the loss with the pain of losing ones brother, and those I meet in Skyrim acknowledge the 'vanquishing of a great evil'. Looks to me like you are going to have to try to convince them too. As for taking books of lore 'literally', as I have used as an example in a thread before....I was an Agent Of Nightingale reading a book telling me Agents Of Nightingale do not exist, do I believe the book, or the game?
  23. Akatosh created Alduin first, followed by the other dragons. Using your logic they are then all gods. So my character is also a godslayer? As for the book you quoted from I rather gather it is written as fairy tales based on TES lore. I mean really, Alduin belching up farms? I found it quite comical. After playing a bit of Morrowind and quite a bit of Oblivion as well as Skyrim, I have learnt to take the books of lore with a pinch of salt. Lore means truth mingled with myth and legend as well as the point of view of the author....and not law
  24. I don't class Alduin as a 'god', and as for him being dead, well going by the little scene at the Throat Of The World at the end of the main quest, I don't think the dragons think he is still alive anymore. His soul? Who knows, maybe Akatosh reclaims it as that is where it came from. In any case I don't think Alduin is in any condition to swallow the world, so we will never know
  25. Now I may not be the brightest candle on the birthday cake, but having seen Alduin a few times, and also realising the immense size of Nirn.....there may be a slight problem with the physics of Nirn fitting inside his 'mighty gullet' :whistling:
