Is that the Khajiit? I came across him I think standing staring at a waterfall, spoke to him and he said something back and walked off.

I found him aswell except at the top of a mountain near Azura's Shrine.

Said somthing random about how he hates magic now as he used a fire spell that was too powerful and burnt his sweetroll lol

You need speech of 99 to sell stolen items for some stupidly bizarre reason.

99? Seriously?

HaggisUK · 13 Nov 2011 at 15:38

I'd have thought there would be someone at the thieves guild you could sell stolen stuff to. 29 and haven't even been to see them yet though so just guessing.

Hmm so I read in a review but looking around some folk are saying once you get into the Thieves in Skyrim there are fences you can use, there's also a fence skill under speech somewhere.

yea.

But much much better.

Its a cross between Oblivion and Fall Out 3. But far improved.

Skyrim is far less linear. I think the melee combat in Dark Messiah is better than Skyrim but everything else is dwarfed by Skyrim's awesomeness.

I tried to remake my character using showracemenu and he no longer looks as old as gandalf, but now looks like he is high on skooma:

Bah. Bretons be fugly in Skyrim too.

Hahahaha, only just realised Skyrim is a steampowered game.

BRB calling family up to get code.
BRB installing now with 30 mins to go.

How demanding is the game though. Is it ok to run on a laptop? (C2D 2.93ghz, 8gb ram, 8800 SLI)

Hardly demanding at all, that spec should be good for high - ultra.

Is their anyway to put a marker on the map? Found a chest that I can not open yet.

Not other than the placemarker.

Do dungeons populate again after you clear them? Or do they stay empty?

sniffy · 13 Nov 2011 at 16:45

It seems they stay cleared and this will be indicated on the map when you hover your mouse over the dungeon.

The map will indicate that they are cleared, but I went back to one recently that had repopulated - that was for a quest though, so not sure if the others do.

bushmins · 13 Nov 2011 at 17:07

Is gmg the cheapest place to get a skyrim steam code?

Bleek · 13 Nov 2011 at 17:08

I told myself I wasn't getting this as I probably wouldn't play it but I can't ignore the excellent press it's receiving so just purchased on Steam. Another game I don't need!

I read yesterday, that 'supposedly' Bethesda call skyrim the infinite game.

Basically yes, dungeons will repopulate again, but I also think it might even be random as well.
