Stemin Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Firstly, don't be a douche ....secondly, that's all well and good, but you should be able to complete the MAIN QUEST...you know, hunting Alduin down, etc....ie: Being the Dovahkin, which is the whole point of the game...without having to join a Guild...(Mages College).... :dry: ...to carry through the Dovahkins reason for existence quest. You don't have to join the mage's college to complete the main quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthier Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Being a werewolf isn't so bad as you don't wolf out unless you want to. Being a vampire? Now that is restrictive with all that feeding; I found myself doing the quest to cure after about a game week of it. But if you simply don't want to? I don't want to be some beastly creature. I check everytime after encountering a vampire if I haven't contracted anything. That's what it boils down to. Preference, taste. You don't want to do it, yet the game tries to force certain choices down your throat. I became a werewolf to enjoy the quests the companions offered me as well as not having to worry about becoming a vampire ever again... Well then Bethesda again opened brand new Vampire content and I find myself in the exact position the OP is now. Being a werewolf is fine with me, I sneak around at night anyway and have never used the form except in the one companion's quest where you were forced to. I just consider myself a human who has friends in the companions. That being said actually "playing" a werewolf or a vampire holds absolutely no interest for me other than the fact I will eventually "have to" to get my achievements. I wanted to experience as much as possible in this game so yes I do agree it can get very frustrating when I am forced to research spoilers ahead of time to weigh the cost/benefits of joining or refusing to join a faction. I completed the Brotherhood quest line, even though I really didn't want my character to be that dark, simply because I wanted to see everything I could. Dawnguard though I am torn on. I know there are some really cool mods for the vampires but honestly I am happy with the play-style of the character I have built. I like my little sneaky arrow flinger. I really don't want to be forced into killing NPC's I might want to interact with later simply because Skyrim demands it to see new content. To bad this is the last expansion for the Elder Scrolls Universe. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
