Yeah as silly as the straight-RNG pickpocketing system is, its kinda fun to risk it, especially since I'm going for more of a "trickster" type of character.

If I'm gonna stab em with a dagger I might as well just kill em.

Almalexia, why are you so crazy?

Also, you find the wackiest shit in random lore articles.

HoonDing, the Yokudan Make Way God
Yokudan spirit of 'perseverance over infidels'. The HoonDing has historically materialized whenever the Redguards needed to 'make way' for their people. In Tamrielic history this has only happened three times: twice in the First Era during the Ra Gada invasion in the form of Hunding and Diagna, and once more during the Tiber Wars. In this last incarnation, the HoonDing was said to have been "either a sword or a crown, or both",[1] implying that HoonDing was either the young Redguard Crown Cyrus, or the sword enchanted with the soul of the last heir to the throne of Hammerfell prince A'Tor, or, of course, both of them together.

Ah yes Yokudan. The place that got blown up because the Redguard got so awesome at swording they split atoms.

Elder Scrolls lore is the best.

I also found it interesting that the Empire was ruled by snakes for 400 years.

So I bought Skyrim the other day since it was on sale, and I've been engrossed in it for about the past three days now.

Help me

Once you have flown the skies of Keizaal, your envy of the dov will only increase.

In other news, I never cease to confuse myself with my choice of proletariats. One minute I'm adding waves to my shorelines and the next I'm scaling leaves down to 64x64 to helping my limping framerate.

only recently started to sit down and play oblivion, yeeeaaars after the fact. ive been spoiled with skyrim mostly by having an assistant decoy/packanimal cause in oblivion shit be heavy yo!

prequil got it dead on when it called oblivion players 'murder hobo' though, you can own four houses and its still what you feel like- a klepto murder hobo with parkinsons..... that would make an awesome hook for a new indie game

Done with Tribunal. That last fight was stupidly tough, I had to drop the difficulty down to 0 from 80 to avoid being 3-hit, and I only had one good restore magicka potion on me. At least I made use of all my buff items.

Bloodmoon is up next.

I like how Dawnguard fucks up the main quest progression if you haven't reached the elder scroll leg of the plot

yeah it's kind of funny how the scrolls are supposed to be these super powerful ancient artifacts and then with that mod they chuck them at you like hotcakes

This is gonna be a fun Lets Play.

(A note, I am NOT using that stupid, high-pitched tone in this, now that I know I can record Skyrim footage, I'll be able to go the next step past a Skyrim LP with still images. This is just a test to see how the Youtube footage comes out and how my voice sounds, just to try and get the video quality to be good.)

I've decided I'm gonna play through skyrim role-playing as Beowulf, under the conditions that I can't use magic, can't worship daedra, and that all trolls must be fought totally naked.

Why? How else would you fight a troll?
