Sacked it off for a bit, and have gone back to MGS4.

IF, big if, PS3 ever sees any DLC then I may go back to it. Can't see any DLC being available anytime soon though.

I have not played it since the dawnguard dlc was released. I blasted through the dawnguard side and then tried being a vampire. But a quest glitched out and I couldn’t be bothered wasting an hour going back and doing it again.


Bring on fallout 4.

Have to say I was very disappointed with the ending,not got Dawnguard yet and seriously the new DLC is to buy plots of land and build a house on them not really what I want from a RPG DLC.

Agree with KOT,looking forward to Fallout 4,also interested in Elder Scrolls Online

close to 1M credits now. Trying out the new DLC. Now an architect it seems. Managed to get all the Dragon Priest masks fitted into their plinth in the Laberinth. Got me a nice new mask as well. got rid on my vampirism again. Moved all my **** from my house in Whiterun to my newly built mansion in Falkreath. Aela the Huntress still loves me and makes me a dinner everyday, though those pesky Dawnguard still seem to come round looking for a fight. I now have nine dead bodies round my new house. Can't bring adopted kids here with rotting carcasses surrounding the house. Suppose I will have to physically drag them down to the river to get rid of them.

My weapons room in my new house looks rather well with all my various armours and weapons. Pride of place are my Dragonbone and Dragonscale along with Guilded Elven and Dwemer suits.

Anyhoo still stuck on level 76. My level doesn't seem to be going anywhere. maybe due to the fact that most of my skills are at 100 anyway. Taken to archery practice on stormcloak guards doing their rounds in the various towns and cities. especially cool when they fall from castle walls and battlements. the cut scene as I watch the arrow fly and thunk into a chest of an unsuspecting guard is especially satisfying. cheap thrills but hey ho what else have I left to do.

Apparently the next DLC, Dragonborn, will be available on PS3. I'm not holding my breath though.

Round the side of the Jarls house in Falkreath, crouch on the log pile and put a weight on the reverse button. Come back an hour later to level 100 sneaking...

Bit of an anti climax really. Not particularly difficult at level 81. The second black book allowed me to redeem perks at the expense of a dragon soul. I removed about 15 magic perks and put them to better use. Visually stunning especially Haema Mora's Apocrapha realm. Main story line far too short. Still loads to do via side quests but that should only take another couple of sessions. Dragon riding fun but could have been implemented better. New spells and shouts are way cool. Blowing people apart with the dragon aspect unrelenting force is satisfying. All in all......good but no cigar

Just started again from scratch.

Do not be concerned if my posts per month drop.

You may (will) not notice this.

read through the advice in the 18 or so pages in this thread. some good stuff to help you through. I wish I wasn't so OCD about completing everything. Some of my quests are bugged and it is impossible to complete them on an xbox360. the pc version allows console commands to advance quests to get you round bugs. so i have

"repairing the phial"
"darkness returns"
"discerning the transmundane"

to name a few of main line quests that I can't complete. I have thought about starting again as well and have a level 20 orc character. I wish i had enough money to train at every level up, but i don't. Some of the bugs in earlier versions of the game have now been patched so it's going to take years to get to 100 skill in some of the perks.

I do believe that Steam are having a sale on this weekend. you might be able to get skyrim and all of the DLC for a reduced price now. PC owners pick yourself up a bargain. I am still playing this game pretty regularly nearly a year later.
