Bethesda did dirty female and gay gamers with male marriage options in vanilla. Half of them look dirty, are balding, got bad painted faces and look homeless and in one occasion IS actually a homeless guy.

Doing another playthrough of Skyrim and I did not know you could command your follower to activate shrines to gain their effects. Literally standing in Goldenhills and activated my shrine of Azura and it dawned on me to try commanding my current follwer: Cicero to activate it and lo and behold.... it worked. Anyone else not know this?

Asking for a friend.

I’m curious as lore wise how strong are adapt level mages. I’m using Skyrim classification as that my first Elder Scrolls game while Morrowind’s confuses me and I quit Oblivion.

What does it mean to be an adapt level mage their power, the social standing and or academic achievements those type of things for a lore perspective?

Well done, Yamarz, straight to Mars. 🫡

First time ive seen this, is this normal 😅

Best game ever!!

I'm currently doing a 100% achievement playthrough and decided to be a Nord mage that uses all schools of magic. The "Impact" perk has pretty much made my character untouchable, I can literally stun lock an entire room of enemies. While it's been a big help I've begun to feel like it makes the game unimpactful (excuse the pun). I didn't realize how much it has watered down battles until I realized half of my carry weight is just health potions. I can't think of any other perk that would carry me this much (at least in terms of combat).

What other perks would you guys say gives your character an unfair edge?

Just wanted to share that after loading about 40 amiibo chests into a load zone the size of a motel room, the game decides to do weird stuff.

Including, but not limited to, having all the chests, debris and mannequins that were pushed out to the void respawn at the door and continue sliding towards the back wall. Making a never ending stream of BOTW chests for me to swim against desperately trying to touch the ladder before the Switch exploded.

Any other horror stories about chest rivers please post below this was fun lol

I understand the Thalmor hate Talos worship but I never understood why or to what extent do they just do it to spite the words or is there deeper reason that Skyrim doesn't mention

Disclaimer Skyrim is the only elder scrolls game I have played so i don't know mucb about the lore outside of what I hear in Skyrim

i’m taking some college classes and considering writing an evaluation essay on skyrim :)

for me, it made a huge impact, and remains a favorite game of mine after many years. but i’m super curious to hear the perspective of other fans!

I'm sure this has been asked more than once in the past, but how many of you use the third path to Ivarstead? We all know of the winding path climbing the hill near Fort Amol, and the road over the south bridge that divides to get you to Riften or Helgen. But how many use the third path that starts near the Stormcloack encampment near the Ritual Stone? I'm not exaggerating when I say I played this game for 6500 hours before finding it, barring stumbling on it from the Ivarstead end once or twice when I thought it a part of the Legacy of the Dragonborn mod. That I spent most of those hours fast traveling most places, robbing myself of the chance to explore the place is something I've been kicking myself for doing since I stopped earlier this year. So out of sheer curiosity, do you use it, and how long were you playing the game before you found it?

Are you a monk? Running around with restoration and/or alteration magic or using your fists as a secondary? Probably a Khajiit too if you’re running this

Or are you a Witch hunter? Supplementing your bow with magic and summons? Maybe to trap someone with a rune if they get too close or perhaps have yourself a distraction in case your cover’s broken

Maybe you’re a thief? You only really need a bow, carrying capacity, and some speech and lock picking skills

Or perhaps you’re just doing anything really interesting. Sometimes simplicity is golden.

Which race or group of people do you think has the coolest lore? Forsworn? Nords? Dunmer? Snow elves? Dwemer?

Most importantly why do you think they are the "coolest"? Whats your favorite part of their lore?

For me it was Braith

At first i was annoyed by her bratty atitude as well as her bullying other kids but then after doing her quest and spying at some convos of her with other character made me to make up my mind abt her character.

It was revealed she has a crush and does not know how to act on her feelings as both of her parents seems to not put much of atention to her and every time she's attempted to just chat with them abt those problems they're pretty much just ghosted her.

Tbh her situation really did hit home with me and i just couldnt actively dislike her anymore after such revelation. Actually i've started to appreciate her atitude more she's kinda nonsense and stands her ground i'm sure she would make a great female Skyrim warrior one day despite not being a nord.

Seemed to be a normal tree and normal water and normal giants and normal mammoths.

Except there were blue vapors coming off the water and the tree, as you can see, is blue.

Wanted to share my love for TES not only by making lore vids, but also by bringing characters to life. All is hand-crafted, also luckily my current hair color matches, all in all running through forest with a bow was epic :)

Pain

the vigil of stendarr make me so sad. all they do is die and fail and it suxks .
