todd92371 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Hello,I just finished Dragon Rising and I have been summoned to see the Greybeards. Question, Can I put this off and wander around a bit without affecting the storyline? I want to go explore Skyrim and the greybeards may just have to wait! :) todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ita Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Yes you can. Nothing bad will happen except that dragons will begin to appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daventry Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Thats the fun thing about this Game, Nothing tells you it has to be done NOW, you can be in the middle of something and for no reason you can turn around and go do whatever else you want, then later you realize, wasent there something i was suppose to do. :ermm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelWinds Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 The game has nothing against Chronic Hero Disorder, so feel free to wander wherever, there's no penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCambo Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 This seems like a helpful thread. I'm at the same point but I'm scared to kill any people in the towns and cities, will they re-spawn after a set amount of time or will they be gone forever? Same with food in towns like Riverwood, I stole all those cabbages and they haven't come back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ita Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 People in cities generally don't respawn, only guards do. If you kill any named NPC they're gone for good. Plants have a long respawn time, i think it's over 10 in-game days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd92371 Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 Thanks guys. You know the funny thing- I have spent a ton of time in the game so far and I have only visited Whiterun so far. lol. There is so much more to see. I could still hang around Whiterun for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobusExtremus Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) I've played over 300 hours and have just recently gotten to Riften. Still have many named quests (not the misc ones, but the "main" quests) to finish. Wandering around is fun. Sometimes, if you stumble across a cave and clear it out, when you find someone that asks you to perform a quest for them you might just be surprised: "Oh, you want me to find THIS item?" and get instant gratification when you give them their long lost thingamajig. If you want a little more life in cities and your wanderings, these three mods are great: Populus Populated Cities Adventurers and Travellers Edited March 2, 2012 by NoobusExtremus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
