Oblivion 2: Skyrim V6: Old People's Naked Bodies Fishing Secrets With Their Manly Beards

[ArchXeno]

Are there any mods to make Skyrim more difficult other than PISE and Deadly Dragons?

[QUOTE=dgg;34329479]Personally I prefer [url=http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5253]"A realistic ENB profile"[/url).

I have done my own tweaks to it though as I thought it over-saturated things too much. Dunno if that is fixed in later versions or not.

Comparision photos. ENB on at the left, off at right.[/QUOTE]Looks rather nice apart from making the nights damn near pitch-black. I have difficulty seeing in the night as it is, i'd rather not have to fire off magelights everywhere that isn't completely filled with light.

No, it's easy to see at night. I know your problem, I have tried a couple of ENB settings that just fucks up nights and cave so fucking much. This just darkens them, you still have no problem spotting anything.

Notice that the only pitch black place is the background mountains far away, not any actual scenery close to you.

You might also want to adjust your brightness settings in-game or on your monitor since it sounds like you just generally have it too low

If you swim underwater however then it's completley fucked up for some reason, can't see shit. Recommended to toggle it off if you're going down to fetch something for whatever reason.

[QUOTE=ArchXeno;34329508]Are there any mods to make Skyrim more difficult other than PISE and Deadly Dragons?[/QUOTE]There's that Wars in Skyrim III thing that adds a lot more random spawns, including more difficult ones. Then there's Duel - Combat Realism, which I think makes combat more challenging and interesting.
I haven't encountered any large overhauls of Skyrim's difficulty thus far.

My LCD monitor is absurdly bright, i'm not entirely sure what the problem is.

Am I doing it right?[/QUOTE]
Shortly after his tragic demise, I stripped the armor off the Lusty Imperial Guardsman for my display case and tossed him off the edge of a cliff.

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;34329482]If I remember correctly, there's a console command that can allow the camera to roam freely, but iirc there's no way for the 3rd person camera to simply rotate freely around the player if the player is doing anything.[/QUOTE]

If you're talking about the command that detaches the camera from the player, I already know about that.

I'm almost positive Oblivion's camera was like this. Why did they change it?

What does this have to do with Skyrim?

[Col. Buggernuts]

Welp, that ENBseries thing looks really nice in-game, but rapes my framerate :/
Going to need to tweak a few things.

That's what ENB does best. Raping your FPS.

Got Skyboost? There is also that FPS Booster program that you run before running Skyrim to improve performance. Both on Nexus.

What makes daggers so special in Skyrim?

[markfu]

Special dual wield animations.

I fast traveled and a dead dragon fell out of the sky. I didn't even get it's soul...

Holy fucking shit it's dark inside Jorrvaskr with this mod.

[QUOTE=xxfalconxx;34329378]Many things happened to Ma'Jiik today.

One, Ma'Jiik was going through town, enjoying his new face-cavity helmet. Ma'Jiik was approached by a child who asked kajiit to play tag. Being the nice kajiit he is, Ma'Jiik agreed. Ma'Jiik never could have predicted the child slapping him on the back of his head-cavity and knocking his new helmet off. The child ran in terror while kajiit picked up his helmet. Ma'Jiik feels bad now.

But, Ma'Jiik got a letter today from friend at morrowind. He asks Kajiit how he would get a severed head too? Why would he want no head with which to express emotions? Kajiit is not sure what to say. Obtain blessings from a god and run into a pack of bandits? Go anger a wizard? Ma'Jiik will respond later. Someone has asked him to get some silly stone from a ruin.[/QUOTE]

So wait, is it Ma'Jiik or Kajiit?

They also hit twice during power strikes.

I think a dual power strike delivers 6-8 hits so you get a huge DPS. Individual hits don't do much damage though

[Tacosheller]

So I just murdered Anise to claim her cabin. As I was dragging her naked body down to the nearest river, I noticed a Hunter making camp. She looked like she would tell, so I murdered her too. I dragged both of the naked bodies into the river and they went over the nearby waterfall, never to be seen again.

[QUOTE=ChicagoMobster;34328815]Argonians are my favorite characters. Yet, I have feel like I can't play with them, cause I mean, they're from the Marshlands, a swampy, hot, water place. Skyrim is this cold tundra. I feel like my character would freeze.[/QUOTE]

This was actually addressed somewhat in Bloodmoon. The only Argonian NPC was one who had come to work for the East Empire Company on the island but couldn't stand the freezing cold so planned to get the next boat back to Vvardenfell (Being Morrowind, he never left).
I suppose the lack of beast races in Skyrim could be to do with that. Argonians are lizards who would die if they spent too long outside (Note that there are no Argonians bandits and such, they're all shopkeepers/innkeepers) and the Khajiit are from a desert/rainforest province so I can't imagine they'd be big on snow. Heck, try getting your cat outside on a snowy day. But at least they can survive so trade with the cities and very occasionally you might chance upon a bandit.

[QUOTE=Tinter;34330211]So wait, is it Ma'Jiik or Kajiit?[/QUOTE]

Ma'Jiik is the character.
Khajiit is his race.
Kajiit is one of the many misspellings of the race.
They have a tendency to talk about themselves in the third person and without using their name. I think this is explained somewhere as tying in with the whole thief stereotype as if they're trying to shift blame away.

Not sure why people bother with it. Get the FXAA injector and then just force ssao through your nvidia drivers, assuming you have nvidia

I don't think I've heard one refer to him/herself with race though.

They look nothing alike except that both blades are curved.

I think that's just a generic dagger.

Edit:

I mean, certainly not generic, it's very pretty, but the design isn't particularly special.

Daggers are also the only "silent" weapon.
