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

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;34362498]Unarmed and Unarmoured. Would love to play a monk with lightning reflexes and fists of steel.[/QUOTE]

Lv. 100 unarmed allows use of a spell called "Hadouken".

[little.sparrow]

To throw one point into every perk, you need to be level 165ish.

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;34362483]It always confused me why I never saw an Argonian or Khajiit use their tails for anything. Especially Shadowscales, you'd think they'd use every inch of their body to aid in killing.[/QUOTE]

So, what, stangle a dude with your tail?

That's like smothering someone with your buttcheeks, man.

Or use it to swing from places like Indy with his whip.

Speaking of which, I would love to see more ways to move in Skyrim. Ropes, ladders or just plain climbing up uneven walls. Levitation spells, boats, a personal caravan (for hauling absurd amounts of loot or stuff from place to place) and so on.

No, smothering them with your buttcheeks would be like smothering them with your buttcheeks.

[b]I[/b] thought maybe hanging from a beam with your tail, need both hands to snap a neck.

[Col. Buggernuts]

Hell, Shouting down a wall from time to time wouldn't go amiss; ol' Tiber Septim did it, and I would like to as well.

EDIT: Oh bugger it, automerge broken again :c
I is too slow.

[QUOTE=Sgt Doom;34362512]Any mods? What programs are running in the background? Are you running TES V Acceleration Layer or Skyboost? Are you using the FPS Booster program?[/QUOTE]

Disabled all mods, same FPS. I'm using Skyboost. There are a few background apps, but my CPU usage was alright, memory usage was quite high but the ones in the background weren't using that much, Skyrim was using the majority of it.

[Darth_GW7]

Also, it was the same when I started a new game, so doesn't seem to be a bug.

Yeah, I thought it might help. It didn't.

[Col. Buggernuts]

Could you give your full specs? I'm not going to patronise you by telling you to go do a full defrag and virus scan, but you might want to consider having steam verify the cache integrity and, if all else fails, reinstalling it.
Have you had this ever happen with another game before?

AMD Athlon II X4 635
ATI Radeon HD 5700
Windows 7
Corsair 4GB RAM

I verified the cache integrity, and as for sudden drops in FPS for other games, no, not that I recall, at least not noticeably (Ie. From smooth-as-jazz to jumpy-as-fuck)

Attach dragon dildo to tail, double success rate on intimidate checks, also acts like an amulet of Mara.

Oh, one final question, what version drivers are you running? I don't know if ATI puts out beta drivers, but might be worth having a look at those; NVIDIA's gave me a performance boost in Skyrim.

I think I've got the latest stable version because Catalyst Control Centre seems to automatically update now. Might look into beta ones.

I have this weird bug where... hmm... it's a bit hard to explain.

Imagine your character just standing around, no weapons drawn or anything, now imagine a torch in his/her hand but his/her fingers aren't wrapped around it, it's just there in the hand, when I run and sprint it looks fine but if I stand still or walk it doesn't do the proper pose.

This is only in 3rd person but somehow it annoys me greatly, does anyone know a fix for this?

[Demoness]

Fixed it, turned out that a mod I downloaded contained animation files that screwed up the torch-holding animation. Deactivated it and it works fine now.

Victory torch.

Lizard boobies.

[QUOTE=Daemon White;34358684]Shadow of the colossus. Just sayin.[/QUOTE]

The thing is those HAD to be good because the entire game was just landscape --> boss. Rinse and repeat 16 times (but the game was phenomenal)

[MadPro119]

I hate how Master and Expert difficulties are purely unrealistic. I hit a lightly armored bandit with my sword and he takes a bit of damage and then he hits me with a similar sword and I'm wearing full armor and am suddenly down to half health! For now I'll just sum it up with the fact I am a low level and have not yet been trained in the ways of the bow and sword. It will feel really good to finally get to the point where you can kill everything!

Bethesdas definition of balance is unbalance.

[Demoness]

I firmly believe that raising the difficulty should never just mean that NPC's do more damage or have more health all of a sudden. What they need to do it make the enemies smarter, use different tactics, use potions and poison, things like that.

An arrow to the face is a bloody arrow to the face and on expert an enemy shouldn't be able to take 20 of them without dying.

Being a good guy is hard. Molag Bal [sp]guilt tripped me into finding Boethiah's worshipper because he was being held prisoner, then when I returned he gets trapped again and my options were to leave him there or beat him to death three times with a rusty mace. I chose the mace.[/sp]

Then some kid wants me to visit his old orphanage [sp]and kill the owner. So I visited the place and after talking to her, the kids and the other (kinder) lady that works there; I find there's no other solution to the quest but to carry out the hit. So I did that and felt like a bad person when these kids were so happy and inspired because of her death. I loaded the game, and now my options are to leave these kids in the hands of a nasty lady or kill them in front of her and teach them that murder is the right thing to do.[/sp]

Such is life in Skyrim.

If RP's so important to you, [sp]kill her in a very sneaky fashion. Y'know, lure her out of the orphanage and dump her body in the Ratways and shit.[/sp]

[benzi2k7]

They can't really improve the difficulty until they improve the actual combat gameplay, it's still absolutely awful/basic for how much time they've had to improve it.

I walked in there and shot here in the head with an arrow in front of the children and then ran out.

Fuck being the good guy.

When I did that quest for the first time [sp]I had no idea how the kids would react and I thought they'd shit all over the place if I murdered her in plain sight so I killed her in her bedroom.[/sp]
