    Graphics card for skyrim on PC

    Ok thanks for the replies. Based on what you said I think I'm gonna go get it and try it out. One of the reasons I had reservations about it was that I play empire total war which is kinda old now and that can sometimes be slow and laggy. Edit: How would I know if I had enough power supply to...

    Graphics card for skyrim on PC

    I already own skyrim for the xbox360 but would like to switch to the pc version and I wanted some input on whether it would be worth it based on my specs. I already ran a test on a website to see if it would run on my machine and it passed although I had a fairly low rating for the graphics...

    Civil War in Skyrim based on History?

    First of all I was referring in general to the view that the game is based on real world history and the original post as much as to you. The thread is not pointless as it is asking if it is based on real life history or not? This let's people discuss whether they think it is or isint, so me...

    TES 6: Wishlist

    I'd personally like to see a new way of introducing the player to the game despite bethesda's love of making us start out as a prisoner, going all the way back to arx fatalis. Something where we start the game washed up on a shore with a shipwreck on the beach and start from there with some...

    Civil War in Skyrim based on History?

    Ok in my first post I stated a difference in motives between the thalmor and Huns pedantically finding fault with their place in the analogy. Obviously voicing a difference in opinion means that I havnt read the previous posts... The Huns fit equally as badly as Carthage would or the Parthian...

    Civil War in Skyrim based on History?

    How am I not keeping up with the conversation? The title of the thread asks if it is based on history and yeah you suggested the huns as the thalmor to fit in with the Romans and goths. The point people are making is that the Huns don't fit as well as the Romans do to the analogy and that's all...

    Civil War in Skyrim based on History?

    "no other civilisation can hold that place" Who says it has to? Not all parts of the fiction Bethesda has created has to have a historical basis. The Huns were not overly concerned with imposing their religion over the regions they conquered and were motivated more by plunder and riches whereas...

    Mission completed

    I wondered if there were any people out there who, like me, are still yet to complete the main quest in skyrim. I have owned the game since 11/11/11 and created probably about 20 different characters and have a combined total of gameplay hours that must number at least 200 and the furthest I've...

    faction issue

    Why did you do the quest "joining the stormcloaks" if you didn't want to join them? It really couldn't be labelled any clearer. But no I don't believe you can switch sides.

    Mage killing

    Thank you streets! This is very informative and helpful to me and I expect to be referring back to it for some time until I manage to acquire some of these resistances or items. :D:D

    Mage killing

    It all comes down to whether I can actually get to within striking distance of them. Also i forgot to mention Is that magic resistance passive or do you actually have to block the spell with the shield?

    Mage killing

    Who gives this quest? Thanks I will try this tactic. Yes I know that mages generally die after a few melée hits but if I'm faced with a couple of them running about the place firing off spells or I've got a enemy warrior with a Mage supporting him then it's difficult to go for the Mage...

    Mage killing

    Hey I wondered if anyone could recommend the best way to take down Mage npcs in the game. I am a pure warrior class and am finding things just about the right difficulty on my new save ( around level 7 playing on expert). However I came up against a Mage who really kicked my ass and I'm worried...
