I find the Thieves guild quest quite funny. I'm now the guild leader even though I haven't completed the quest "Become a full member of the thieves guild" as I've only found 6 of the 24 unusual gems.

Anyone know where to get the Thieves guild armour?, i'm supposed to give it in for an upgrade but I sold it lol

AHarvey · 23 Dec 2011 at 11:59

open the console (button above tab)

type in:

player.additem d3ac3 1

hit enter and you'll have the armour, that's if you didn't need the boots, gloves or hood.

Ive no idea what these three weirdo's are doing outside Whiterun Stables. Theyve been there for ages, feel a bit sorry for the chap in the middle

CrispyOtter · 23 Dec 2011 at 12:54

^ I used to have two of him outside the stables... He's the guy I stole a horse for but decided to keep it for myself (Lerush or something iirc?). They died horrifically in the attack on Whiterun though

The random events are what make skyrim so amzing!

shuffle · 23 Dec 2011 at 14:44

has anyone used the 'corpses not disapearing' mod? and if so, does it slow the game down with hundreds of dead bodies everywhere?!
I like the idea of them not disapearing as its pretty clinical seeing them go away when you next re-visit a scene.

Does anyone else wish they'd given your companion a bit more character? I'm not talking BG2 with major quests but some scripted dialogue at key locations / events would really flesh them out IMO. And might help to make exploring Skyrim feel a little less lonely.

You are lonely, you are the first Dovahkiin in generations, there's nobody else like you or who can understand your situation

I'd happily trade half the interactive items that you can pick up and use for crafting, for more dialogue and deeper and richer characters and story.

Finally got my signed copy of the soundtrack today, very happy.

Anyone else feel that the stormcloaks are a mixture of Nazis and members of Cerberus from Mass Effect?

Hey if you keep shouting in a town or village the guards come up to you and tell you to stop and to keep it down

AHarvey · 23 Dec 2011 at 16:56

I've spent 2 days (about 12 hours) just running around putting places on the map so that I can fast travel easier in the future, and I've done about 15% of the map :S

Going to do the champion missions, see where that gets me, then crack on with the other side quests and do the odd main one now and then.

Just started to learn enchanting too

don't BUY a house, just do the very very mage college quest chain and you get given the entire top floor as a reward

6800 gold for a fully kitted out house in Whiterun or the rather tedious College quest line, including 1 quite powerful Necromancer boss and an insanely powerful Dragon Priest boss.

Tough choice ><

PeterNem · 23 Dec 2011 at 16:58

You'll need to kill off the dragon priests anyway to get all the masks assuming you go in for the OCD element of the game and don't want to miss any!

Merlin5 · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:05

I've got another dragon soul and debating on whether to unlock the second part of either kyne's peace (peace), whirlwind sprint (fury) or fire breath (inferno). What would you recommend?

Pighardia · 23 Dec 2011 at 17:07

I have found quite a few new areas and shortcuts using Whirlwind sprint, it can be very useful

Really? I found the basic sprint (whirlwind) very useful for getting past things like swinging blades, but it never occurred to me that it could find new areas.
