Gaming and Consoles Forum - RE: The Skyrim thread - Page 2

Playing on the 360, have put in some good time on it since Christmas, keep unlocking missions then getting sidetracked and doing other stuff.

Went back to one of the old missions today, and I've gotta say... this has gotta be the only game in the world where you can get drunk, steal a goat and sell it to a giant.

Loads of fun though, wasn't sure if I'd like it at first but can't get enough of it.

I haven't actually played it that much at all, had a weekend on it before christmas but went off on other titles and just finished Fallout:New Vegas this weekend but not touched the add-ons at all yet.  But I did buy it in the knowledge that it is one that will take forever to get through so not rushing it to put it back up for sale like I do with Call of Duty et al.

I'm currently at Level 28, but some of my skills are much higher - smithing, for example, I'm on about level 81.

Smithing & enchanting is definitely the best way to make money. Iron daggers are a great place to start, but I won't tell you which enchantment is worth the most as it might suddenly ruin the game for you. It took me a while to figure out how it all worked though, having never played Oblivion or Fallout or anything. Still haven't got my head around Alchemy, but that's the next thing I'm gonna tackle I think.

Have gone back to the main missions now, but find the more I take on the more miscellaneous ones I get as well. Gonna take me years to finish I think!

I haven't played it yet, bu since we got our PS3, a couple of weeks before Christmas, Skyrim is the only game the missus has played on it! She's on over 60 hours, loves it, and shows no sign of losing interest in it. Also happy to say she still hasn't seen any glitches

Will hopefully have my PC issues sorted at the weekend then possibly a good time to use up the week's holiday I have left...

missus said ps3 updated console today ( I assume that's Sony merging PSN Ids with Sony entertainment IDs), and also Skrim got an update. I assume that's the 1.4 update to fix PS3 memory issues amongst other things.

I wonder how much of that was typical internet "mountain out of a molehill", as her character is level 40 something, she played loads of hours, but had no probs, in any case this hopefuly means she wont.

So... High Res Texture Pack came out last week, here is a comparison video, which is tbh more of a spot the difference game, because in most of them it's very hard to notice much at all.

More of a fractionally-higher-res pack if you ask me.
