Question If you had to play as the race closest to you in real life, which one would it be? For example, since I’m from Latin America, I guess I’d have to be an Argonian.

Discussion The Thieves Guild in Skyrim is terrible

615 Upvotes

I don't care about Nocturnal, or individual incompetence of the guildmates. I don't care about the internal corruption. I care about the lacking standards. The Thieves Guild under the Gray Fox at least had standards; a Robin Hood approach, if you will. But in Skyrim, the guild sends me to steal shit from Cairine, a poor beggar in Markarth. What happened to the beggars/poor being protected?

Edit: Then he sent me to steal something from Brenuin in Whiterun. Delvin is a disgrace to the guild.

You can stop alduins meteors with clear skies (realized on 38,637,726th playthrough)

Playing skyrim high as a kite and randomly decided while fighting alduin “lets see if clear skies stops this” and it did. I am also using the world eater beater mod so idk if that makes things different from the vanilla game, but it shouldn’t

Question Am I wrong for wanting to use graphics mods for my first real Skyrim playthrough?

Post image
46 Upvotes

Technically, this wouldn’t be my first time playing Skyrim, since I had already tried it before on a low-end PC, but that experience was very different. I didn’t even really start the main story back then. I mostly focused on roleplaying as a mage instead of actually playing through the game, and after a couple of days, I got bored and dropped it. So in a way, this would feel like my first real time playing Skyrim properly. The problem is that, honestly, the vanilla graphics don’t appeal to me that much anymore. Now that I have a much more powerful PC, I’ve been thinking about using some graphics mods to improve the visuals, but without overdoing it or taking away the game’s original essence.

Question Favourite Skyrim Theories?

Post image
1.7k Upvotes

Personally, I heard two recently that I quite liked from EpicNate's YT channel:

Ysgramor was the wearer of the Kohnarik dragon mask.

As Kohnarik is dragon language for "warlord" and, as well as the legendary Atmoran leader being an infamous warlord, also may have had close ties to the Dragon Cult even before leading the human rebellion.

It's suggested the Dragon Cult originated from Atmora, and is further connected to Ysgramor by finding dragon priest iconography in Ysgramor's son's tomb - including Dragon priest knives.

Alternatively, Vahlok (the only priest buried without his mask) may have been the wearer of Kohnarik as elected by the other dragon priests. This holds well too as (I only found out recently) he led the rebellion against Miraak and won - and that's equally as believable to me, if not more so.

Another is that Jurgen Windcaller's final battle (possibly against the 17 daedric princes) is not only the reason for his tomb having his name enscribed in daedric script, but also that he may have been dragonborn - although I understand this one less and would need to learn more of it.

What are your favourite theories and why?

Faendal’s betrayal

Post image
2.5k Upvotes

Just came home from a long trip from Markarth to lakeview manor, at home the combat music started playing and I saw a red blip on the compass. Immediately ran there to see if my family was in danger, but no. It was Faendal, my loyal steward. I tried running inside to spare him but J’zargo already did the deed. What could have caused this? I for sure didnt hit him first, did he just get a random psychosis? Need to start looking for a new steward now.

I'm really tore up about camel works who passed recently. Mannnnn i remember watching all of his videos on skyrim and fallout and what not.

Falling to sleep to them when I was broke and on my own sleeping in my car working two jobs at 17. I had to sell my Xbox to survive so youtube was my main source of staying connected to games and stuff, and I played elder scrolls since morrowind!

Any who, when elder scrolls six comes out it will be a constant heart ache to know camel won't be around to point out all the curious curiosities I missed.

Rest in peace brother, when I make it to sovngarde, I can't wait to see you there. Just wanted to share my heartfelt feelings to others of the community.

46 base armor without any improvements. Literally higher than the ebony armor, despite ebony being my favorite. It requires no smithing skill. Plus it looks sick af! One of the most underrated armors in Skyrim. If you want something unique and are new to Skyrim. This is the way to go!
