flatline115 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I got Skyrim almost a year ago and spent 277 hours in it. But now I am uninspired. My last attempt was 3 months ago.. I did reasonably well, got my mage to level 100 Conjuration and all that jazz. But afterwards I couldn't find the spark to get back into it and with Company of Heroes 2 being the last game I have before being burnt out on all the games I own let me ask. How can I recapture the magic that Skyrim first had when I began last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ke38290 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 If you haven't already, try Alternate Start - Live Another Life and You are not the Dragonborn together. I tried it and I've been on the play-through I used this mod on for awhile now, I still feel like a different person in the world. With these two mods you can truly role-play and feel like someone else in the fantasy world of skyrim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VolkiharFiend Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 There's just a point when you gotta move on. TES VI isn't too far away at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatline115 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 You are not the dragonborn is just a more expedient way for me to avoid most things during my previous playthroughs (Got AS and never looked back tbh). As far as the above post; Fallout 4 is more likely coming next and then tes vi. That's a lot of time inbetween to play more elder scrolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomriis Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Mod Oblivion or Morrowind and play them instead. You could also try Dead is dead,Its funny how intense and sense sharpening this mod is. I almost dont dare leaving whiterun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackRoseOfThorns Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) I got Skyrim almost a year ago and spent 277 hours in it. But now I am uninspired. My last attempt was 3 months ago.. I did reasonably well, got my mage to level 100 Conjuration and all that jazz. But afterwards I couldn't find the spark to get back into it and with Company of Heroes 2 being the last game I have before being burnt out on all the games I own let me ask. How can I recapture the magic that Skyrim first had when I began last year? 277 hours is not a lot for Skyrim, I have played the game for longer than that on my console without mods. You should cater your mod list to individual character set up. There is lots of concepts to play with. Some things I have tried before: 1. Full time bard or undercover assasin. Become a Bard (steam) 2. Professional hunter. Training Dummies and TargetsHunting in Skyrim - A Hunting GuildAnimallica - Skyrim Wildlife Overhaul - Lore Version (does not give pelts, but it's nice to see some diversity)+any mod that allows you to camp (Frostfall, RND, AFT, Camping Kit of the Nordic Ranger, etc) 3. Bounty Hunter. Increased Bounty RewardsHoth follower (generates bounty quests)Plus combination of combat mods. My recommendation:-Ultimate Combat-Ultimate Dragons-Combat Evolved-Action Combat-Immersive Detection of NPC 4. Treasure Hunter. Grumpy LockpickingSkyrim Unique TreasuresUnderwater TreasuresKynesguard and Deadra HunterNorthern Encounters 5. Bandit / Bully Intimidating Dragornborn BullySarcastic Player Dialogue WIPBecome A HighwaymanGet Out Of My WayMaster of Disguise 6. Skooma Dealer (Breaking Bad - Skyrim edition) Become a Skooma Dealer+Riverside Shack Skooma Dealers DenDragonkiller Cart Reloaded (Get this together with Organized Bandits In Skyrim and Death Alternative - Your Money or Your Life. Have fun!)Drinking ContestToxicity - A Witcher-like Toxicity system 7. Interesting idea: Hold and Defend (take over fort or other location)Spouses Can Live Everywhere / MHiYH 2plus (move in with followers)Jaxonz Positioner (redecorate)Jaxonz Furnishings(profit? :tongue: ) Mods for more diverse enemies:Bandits Glory (Superb!)OBISSIC Worth getting:Death Alternative - Your Money or Your LifeDeath Alternative - CapturedDeath Alternative - Alternate Start Addon (for LAL)RND or iNeedConvenient Horses (Incorporates immersive ways to manage your horse - wave/whistle.

dirvish Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Not including real lfe, bring yourself and as many friends as you can. Skyrim is a breath of fresh air and a moment or two of wait, oh heck, and another breath of fresh air. Ohhh, wait, that was cool, then breath again. Bring yourself my friend, it is all you need.
