Used to play on the easy settings as I tended to enjoy just "adverturing" rather than the fighting. But since reading BIGwooly's diary I tried Master and wouldn't ever go back. Made everything so much more rewarding, and as written above, you had to plan your attacks rather than just steaming in
I'm on PS3 and when I go to save my game, before overwriting the file, if you wait a second it comes up with the character name and number of hours you have been playing. Not sure if it's the same on Xbox.
Great updates on Hrisskar, loving his progress and the decision to go it alone. It did...
Out of interest BIGwooly, how many hours are you into your game now? Would be interesting to see how long it has taken you to reach a similar stage to me, but with all your restrictions in place. The numerous trips carrying all the loot back to towns to sell must account for a huge part it!
Just caught up with the last few updates. It's funny how similar the timing is of the quests you and I are undertaking at the moment. Well I should say, were matching mine until I ballsed up massively and saved my game a fraction of a second before being killed. There's no way to avoid death or...
My latest character has been playing on master (first time I've played on anything other than the default level) with a few restrictions (nothing compared to Hrisskar though), and is up to level 44 and things are becoming a bit too easy. My main weapon is a bow and now I'm up to 100 archery so...
Great updates! Really enjoy reading them on a Monday morning!
I tried numerous times to tackle the Falmer and Chaurus in Shimmermist Cave early on in my master game as part of a bounty contract - needless to say I lost my life on more than one occassion and had to abandon it till I was much...
Am up to 70 hours on my second game and haven't gone out to the watch tower to meet the first dragon. Have run past and see the fires, but not gone near it :)
Have still picked up the words for shouts from walls when I've come across them, so there's no real immediate need to progress that...
Just need to find a way to chain you to your computer so you can't get away again, haha. Seriously though, it was a well earned break!
Haven't been able to go anywhere near as hardcore as your style but have taken small elements from it when I started my new game on Master (Only ever played on...
Killed my first giant the other day. It was a bounty from one of the Jarl's. I didn't want to do it but hate having quests listed that I can't do so like to get rid of it. Felt pretty bad as I don't kill any rabbits, foxes or deer etc, only stuff that is hostile and attacks me first.
I know...
Big respect to BIGwooly for keeping the journal entries up as long as he did. Still hope they continue and he's just having an extended break. But if there are no more to come then I hope he knows how much I, and many others, appreciated them. Really inspired a new way of playing the game for me.
I must have played around 30 hours on my main character since the update and not suffered any issues at all. Game was at 120 hours and had a around 13mb save file. Have started a new game since then and again not had any problems, but am only 30 hours into that and a 4mb file.
How long have...
Lock picking is easy enough on Skyrim, without the need for ANY perks to be spent on it. Sure the skeleton key will save a bit of time, but with the ease of getting lockpicks and rarely taking more than 4-5 to pick the hardest locks, there's no reason to hang onto it.
Would have much preferred it if instead of it keep coming up on your log book, it only came up as a quest when you actively go to the Night Mother and ask for the new contract. Hate having things on there that I can't finish!
I haven't played a huge amount since the patch, but it was rare for me to get a finishing sequence before I updated. Since then I have had 5 or 6. Maybe nothing to do with the patch though!?
