Not nearly that many, but I'll try. Pity that NMM lacks FOMM's Deactivate All button.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
I don't like either.
The Empire is.. The Empire, which kind of tired to kill me for no apparent reason.
The Stormcloaks are a bit racist.
Anytime I begin to favor one, I see something to tilt me away from them..
Is there a "Nuke All" option?On a quest to marry Asmodeus, lord of the Nine Hells, or die trying.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
It's hard to blame the entire Empire for one Captain's judgment call. You were there illegally, after all. Neither option was good from her standpoint, as she didn't want to let a possible conspirator escape, but she eventually went with the "only way to be sure". It was a measured, practical response to a difficult decision. It's also the only good reason a non-Nord might consider the Stormcloaks other then the "Empire=Bad" cliche that's been engrained in our collective skulls for decades.
Me, I don't like the fact that I can't take the fight to the Dominion, but I'm always a loyal Imperial dog. The Stormcloaks do nothing but harm, even to their own cause.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
Besides, in terms of fighting the Thalmor, having the Empire win is better. If the Stormcloaks win, then you have the Empire, the Stormcloaks, Hammerfell and any other factions I missed, not united against the Thalmor, and the former two having just come out of a war with each other. Not exactly the situation that makes a second war against the Thalmor easy. While if the Empire wins, then it has access to Skyrim's forces as well as the other provinces of the Empire (although that may just be Cyrodil at this point, not too sure about that), providing a more unified force to deal with the Thalmor (Hammerfell still wouldn't be part of that unity, but their big problem with the Empire is that they let the Thalmor invade and do their stuff, so they'd probably be willing to take on the Thalmor again).

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
RACIST YOKELS they may be a bit xenophobic but they have good principles what would you do if someone said you couldnt worship your deity. Everybody thinks oh no the dunmer are in the ghetto but they dont have a spotless history of racial equility play morrowind they keep slaves. Yes SLAVES. So put me down for stormcloak (though witch king wouldnt be so bad). The stormcloaks let me in and im a high elf. Plus they have cool names.
Nothing to see here move on.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
Imperials all the way. Sure Tullius can be a bit of an ass, but Rikke is a good solid Nord woman. Conversely, Ulfric is a total racist jerk and his 2nd in command is even worse.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
You know, I wouldn't object to the decision from the Captain so much if it didn't feel so arbitrary and tempermental. Just feels like she's doing it because she's in a mood. I mean, it's not like she had to run all the way to Solitude for higher orders. The bloody military commander in charge of the entire imperial legion in Skyrim is standing thirty feet away. I mean, I'm not going anywhere. I suspect it's just pure laziness that she didn't want to walk over and ask. Or send someone to run over and ask for him. Yeesh.
It's not asking that much for a little effort before you just lop my head off..

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
She did just have to shoot a runaway who was proclaiming innocence (after a fashion). She probably was in a mood. Of course, she almost destroyed the world because she was too busy to pay attention to protest.
From a practical stand point, it was necessary. Her hard-nosed judgment puts everyone in the same spot at the beginning of the game no matter their race or supposed origins. She doesn't care. You were caught during the ambush, whatever your excuse for being there, you get executed - no bias, no favoritism, no mercy. It's a lot easier to build a story from a single starting point.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
That runaway was a horse thief and horse thieves are almost worse then murderers (from a viking/medieval perspective) since they either stole the horse from a noble (death sentence anyway) or they stole it from someone that probably depended on it for survival meaning he doomed their entire family.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
Question: Is there any reasons why Stormcloaks were not listed as La Resistance in TV Trope. (Too Racist? Too Organized? or Too Feudalistic?)

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
So, I've hit level 60. Bard's college is done, Alchemy has capped out, and both my Two Handed & Heavy Armor skills are in the 70's (and remember, I capped Light Armor & One Handed before I even started them). I think I'm officially out of excuses not to go back to the main quest. Looks like my next step is to crash an Elfascist party.
I actually had a bit of fun last night. I went hunting for Mudcrabs outside Whiterun when I heard the tell-tale music change preceeding a dragon attack. This one tried to kite me, so I took off after it... and the next thing you know, I've stumbled into that giant camp out there. No crisis, I'll just slaughter the dragon and run when I'm done, right? It seems that giants will follow you for a long, LONG time in this game.
I mentioned capping Alchemy, right? I've got my +112% alchemy set done. As I understand the math, I can do this one more time to get to a +116% set but that's as far as the math will take me. Then I can remake my "real" armor set. It'll be nice to have those Resist Magic enchants back.
Someone made the suggestion that the best way to level Alteration was to throw around a block of cheese. I have to say the random piece of venison in my house seems to work rather well too Most of my skillups until now have been from transmuting iron to silver to gold.
In other news, taking on 5 mudcrabs at once can do wonders for your Block & Heavy Armor skills. I even managed some Restoration skillups from the sequence.Last edited by TheEmerged; 2012-04-05 at 05:09 PM.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
Guess what?
Iron-Silver-Gold works really well when combined with the mod that lets you disassemble-craft. Buy iron, make silver, make gold, turn gold into coins, buy more iron.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim v1.5 Patch Released on PlayStation 3
After being released on Xbox 360, the Bethblog brings us news that patch v1.5 has been released on Sony's platform, both in Europe and the US. Unfortunately, it appears there are some problems with entering water introduced by the patch, so here's the developers' suggestion to avoid them:
Some PS3 players have reported crashing issues when entering water. If this is occurring for you, you’ll want to clear the game data for Skyrim.

I have a bug. I am going to Korvanjund, and am doing the Stormcloak storyline. When I meet with Glamar Stone-Fist, he starts attacking me. I recently installed the "More Map Markers", ""Better Riften" and "Detailed Cities" Mods. Help?

Does anyone know if it is possible to make Summon spells and summon shouts last longer? Since I have had the idea of making calling a dragon last several days like a pet.

Re: Skyrim IV: Oblivion
Except for Daggerfall, I've always played a Breton in these games. Go ahead and laugh at the boring choice, it's okay. I like being able to talk my way out of problems and being able to use magic without being helpless at combat, so there you go.
The exception? If you played Daggerfall back when it was a newdefinition for bugginessgame, you wouldn't be asking. There was a certain exploit with the class creation system in the game, you see...
Regarding grey vs grey, I think the rift between the Blades and Greybeards is telling as well. The Greybeards infantilize the Blades ("They mess with things they don't understand"), who dowderize the Greybeards ("they're afraid to DO anything with their alleged understanding"). I very much left this exchange feeling like I don't care for either half too much.Last edited by TheEmerged; 2012-04-09 at 08:08 AM.
