I've seen a video of someone punching an Ancient Dragon to death on the hardest difficulty. I was like.....wow. argh1.png

It's not my style of fighting, so my Skyrim characters can never get as badass as that Badass Viking.

The critical animated kills with fists are pretty brutal too.. I mean.. punching a guy, breaking his arm and then throwing him into the wall = LOL.

I guess I'll go impale some more people with my ebony blade.

There should be stealth kills available for using fists... unless there are (I just haven't seen em yet)

Sam Fisher style.

I wish there were more mission in the Dark Brotherhood. I finished 'em all. And they'd have to be better structured. Most of them were just killing random people in easy secluded spots. I liked the ones where you had to infiltrate somewhere and lure them out, or try and kill them while no one was looking, or like make a distraction for the rest of the people and the slit their throats. You know, something like that. That would make the Dark Brotherhood so much cooler than the other factions. happy.gif

Well, the Radiant Quests system really can't create those kind of complex quests, they're just there to give you replayability.

So, I think I mostly did 80% of the quests and tasks in general, so I will spend more time exploring caves and forts, I'm planning to finish the game 100% making every possible task and finding every possible location... this is gonna take an while!
Man, leveling certain skill is quite easy, I once entered an abandoned an jail and had to fight some few ghosts, so, instead of fighting back, I either let them attack me or raised my shield all the time, the heavy armor skill and blocking kept going up until I was bored out of my mind.

I've reached 1 gig of memory..., technically 2 gigs since I make 2 save games for 1 character.... It's getting annoying with the frequent lagging that I had to turn off auto save.

You know, marrying a housecarl (I've done it in one partial playthrough, though with Jordis and not Lydia) is fine, considering looks, but which 'marriage candidate' is the most rewarding to marry in terms of 'material gains?' With the right mods, even the ugliest girl can be made to look attractive (Brelyna can look pretty darned good when you use the right mod to smooth out those wrinkles, for example; married her in a different partial playthrough, but was a little disappointed -- I was expecting to be given non-steal-flagged access to the loot in her college dorm, but didn't get it), but some of the girls offer you better things when married than others (better places to live -- which the housecarls don't give you at all -- or a better 'shop,' or the like). And I mean in the vanilla game -- I saw someone working on a mod (didn't get it because it sounds too buggy\unfinished right now) which would allow you to marry the bard, Lisette, and gain her as a competent-ranged-fighter-type follower as a reward... something I might consider if it worked.

You haven't experienced the full cofusion of modern gender relations until you've heard an angry group of women yelling, "We want tentacles!" at an all-night Hentai-fest.

Eh... I married Ysolda and it's worked out fine. I'd rather marry a non-combatant so she's gaining 100 gold every day I'm not at home rather than marry a combatant and have her with me and she's not gaining gold.

Simple as that.

Actually, your wife gathers 100 gold per day whether she's following you or not.

Ah, well. I'd rather not put her in harm's way, then. 'Sides, this way my Breezehome isn't so empty when I get home.
Two girls waiting for their husband or thane? wink.gif

lol, just kidding.


Anyway, Aela's my current follower, I was getting tired of Lydia charging in all the time, so I'm using an Archer for a change.

Heh. You can have a housecarl, a wife, and a follower all in the house at the same time if you play it right. Plus, since I have a mod designed to allow you to equip your followers with anything (with the side effect of having all of your potential followers nude\in their underwear), you can play a female, strip down, and walk around little Breezehome with four girls all in the buff. (Incidentally, in that same vein, around Darkwater Crossing, there's an unmarked hot spring that you can find a hunters camp with bunch of nude (assuming you have a nude mod; otherwise they'll be in their underwear) hunters bathing. I keep wondering if that'll come up in some sort of quest, but so far I haven't encountered one involving them)

Nah, I've found some of those camps too. One of them is in that hot springs area with the Atronach stone.

I can't really add mods since I have it on the PS3. XD

I have been trying to reverse pick pocket Ysolda with a tavern outfit, but I'm guessing I'm gonna need the Perfect Touch perk.... Which is 100 Pickpocket. Blah.
