What is your biggest Skyrim confession?

Kinda like actually walking around in real life. I would sell my soul to be able to actually fast travel.

 

That's why I never make it. I'll say this though, there are a few mods that can make it more interesting. Notably, Immersive Creatures. You set the spawn rate right and you never know what will jump out at you while you're trotting along. Also 3DNPC's if you take the right followers along. I love taking Skjel the Gray for a nice adventure - never know what ridiculous thing he's going to say.

*Confession* I steal every sweetroll I can.

I like landscaping and levels making in games and like beth works, so I walk and hardly use it if the place was new or I know that I missed a spot. Or if I want to level up some more in pretty much all games.

 

But walking from Riften to solitude, and I know every fort, who owns it and what quests that make use of it the whole way? F it.

 

Expect few places, like solitude shores, sea of ghosts and the spring area since they are cool and look different. The pale makes me at peace so that too.

 

Now, I set my start with some cash to buy a horse or use carriages. I use to RP that my vampire assassin was a classy lady and hated horses and walking since it was the first run where I did that, but stopped RPing that part long ago. Now I'm pissed at every morrowinder who want beth to remove fast travel, it a very needed feature for some in a game that you replay a lot like beth games.

Oh yes, fast travel is necessary. After the first playthrough, I've never been able to go through on foot and like you say, these games beg multiple playthroughs. You know it's funny because Skyrim seems more tedious to me with regards to not using fast travel than say, Morrowind or even Oblivion.

 

**Confession** I once stole a book from Belethor's shop and when he sent thugs after me, I returned to his shop later that night and stole everything that wasn't nailed down to teach him a lesson. I couldn't leave a note so I dropped a dragon scale on his counter as a calling card. :blush:

Asking to remove feature is rather dumb approach, in-house rules or mini-mods can do it for you easily. Personally I have like 3 or 4 playthroughs of Skyrim and I haven't used fast travel ONCE, though I use carriages to move from hold to hold and horseriding to cover big distances.

 

Morrowing was BEGGING for fast travel since big part of its territory was more like a vast dead copy-paste desert with nothing to do or see... awkward ppl.

Oblivion kind of killed me, at least Skyrim has cool looking places in every corner of the map, but oblivion? Green fields 80% of the map. The only cool places are the cities and they are not as well made as Skyrim cities, npcs also pissed me off.

Oh God, I want to do something like this.

Bought it last winter sale, played only about four hours. Rage quite after a woman gave me boots as a reward of an escort mission, I was an argonian.

 

The map is cool and I like the shacks, but there is hardly anything here and there. And it so slow to move around. How people played this one for so long?

I dunno, funny you should mention it, Boombro, I gave it a playthrough recently, got nostalgia. I really don't mind it if I have something to look forward to.

 

It's not much of a confession, but every time I start a new main character since the game was released...I like to take my character to Riften jail....and kill Sibbi Black-Briar. The prison door is welded shut (cheeky devs) so I use and arrow to the foot as he is sleeping....he tends to need only one arrow though. Weak basterd. Of course, I'm probably a little leveled by then, and do his side-quest too.

 

That, and take over the Dark Brotherhood and sever any ties with the Thieves Guild. All this, only with characters that were my main. I tend to pick and choose the factions to be allied with depending on rp of a particular character.

I struggle if a game has dated gameplay if it was not turned based. So I guess that is that.

Why?

I wasn't really wagging my finger, to be honest. Morrowind is certainly dated and quest markers have spoilt me terribly in Oblivion.

 

Oh, Thieves guild never quite appealed to my character unless it was an alt for that express purpose, less so the TES ones. Also, idiosyncrasies of a particular character which is pretty much the keyword. It helps me roleplay and get into my character a bit. Especially when things get repetitive.

I think there should be some sprint, teleport or other featured mods for Morrowind improving travel, though there wasn't when I've been playing it... feels like a past life.

I'm sure morrowind had mark and recall type of spell?
