I hate lock picking. I've looked at every tutorial and still I suck on even Novice locks.

I have, but I haven't seen that one and it explains it a lot better, thanks

I managed 5 years on Oblivion and about a month on Skyrim before getting bored.
Not sure why either because it really is a fine game, I think it may just be that I preferred the stories and side quests in Oblivion more.
Graphically Skyrim Pwns but I find the dragonborn thing a bit boring after a while (kill dragon/get soul/repeat)
I have tried a Wizard type Char up to Arch Mage level so far but may ressurect my old thief from Oblivion 'Robin Gitt'.
I want it to hook me like its older brother did and keep me sated till the next one comes out in about 10 years.

I kind of agree, although for me it was Morrowind that kept me hooked for longer.

In my case though it's because I'm an adult now and have responsibilities at work, rather than when I played Morrowind and all I had to do was school work.

I still think it's one of the best games this gen, but there is something there that is stopping me from going back several times over. I tried recently creating a mage type character, but gave up after a few hours as I would need to put in a few hours a day to actually feel like I was getting anywhere!

Why can I never carry enough loot?

[Margo Channing]

Well I finally finished it...well i say finished, clocked up 115 hours of gameplay and still have a few side quests left to do but to be honest I can't be arsed.

I thought I would at least get an ending movie or something like that but it just keeps going.

I enjoyed oblivion more. can't see myself going back to skyrim again

^^^ Does that include Dawnguard?


I'm at 90 hours and still going on the Dragonborn stuff with 2 separate characters and a 3rd at 10 hours that I left in Breezehome about 6 months ago.

No I haven't played dawnguard. I just don't have any real interest at the moment. Maybe when the price drops I'll go back but for now I'm skyrimmed out

Weird moment last night after killing a dragon in Dawnstar I was nearly arrested by a guard. I'm thinking I must have winged a guard (couldn't possibly my secret assassination of the miner)...

How is it I can take down dragons but snow bears almost kill me?

I remember one of my earlier encounters in Riverwood with a dragon. i must have Fus'd a guard as well as the dragon as I suddenly had a dragon and loads of guards coming after me, near enough shat my pants, especially since I hadn't saved in a while

I poop my pants all the time in this game, things are constantly leaping out at me with no warning, usually bears or skeevers but today I fast travelled back to Dawnstar and the skeleton of the previously slain dragon fell on me from the sky. I screamed
