It shames me to call those people my brothers in christ

I deeply apologise for their behavior. I assure you they are in the minority as far as christians are concerned.

If you cannot work out whether someone is trolling or merely stupid, the answer is probably both.

Anyone else having some gfx texture issues since the patch, such as character faces becoming "see through", clothes being mono colored and trees/bushes looking crystalline?
Have to restart to get rid of them and whilst not game breaking its an annoyance.

Where can I locate an alchemy trainer? i.e to actually skill it up, not just buy ingredients/recipes

There is a Alchemy trainer in the College of Winterhold.

Babette in the Dark Brotherhood can train you in alchemy.

Hes definetly playing hide n seek with me so =/
Thanks.

Oh yeah, those bastards in the College are very elusive.

Your best bet is to check the upstair bedrooms if you can't find them anywhere else.

Skyrim didn't make me gay, however the acts described in the article were so interesting that it turned me gay.

I think all mages are elusive. I can never find any of the Court mages either, unless I hunt for a good 30 minutes. >.<

I think that the Thaumaturgist in Morthol trains Alchemy.

I believe he does, but Babette is a better trainer because she's a master(IE: you can train longer)

I've run into a nasty bug on my new char. As soon as you pass the companions killing the giant near Whiterun, they turn on you and you can do nothing about it. Not tried to bypass them yet, because i've just been thrown back several levels due to having 3 characters not dying at that part and assuming I didn't need to save, so I ragequit instead of spamming iron daggers again to get back to level 6.

Ulfric made me racist.

That means, Im on a quest to kill all Altmer, Argonians and Khajiit.
Becuase they are different, and dont look nice.

While I agree the elves aren't very easy on the eyes, the Argonians and Khajiit look much better than they did in Oblivion.

Still, I dont like them

Argonians and elves (especially dunmer) have got worse IMO, all other races (especially orcs and nords) have got better.

I hate how all the high elves have the Chin of the Gods. I wasnt awake you can be born with an angular jaw

Just got my smithing up to 100... Any ideas on where I can get ebony ore and ingots? I need to craft me some Daedric weapons... (I'm okay with wearing my full Dragonplate armor atm)

There's a metric craptonne of ebony in the

The Drow looks absolutely horrific, and I'm quite sad they ruined my favorite race.

They really are too ugly to play...

So, I was walking around town, when all of a sudden, A Dragon appeared.



His soul was delicious.

You know playing in third person and having the camera constantly pointing at your characters face (presumably with no helmet if you can see the face all the time) is probably not a good idea, you should stop doing that.

I still KNOW he's ugly, though, and I don't always play in first-person view.

I'll gladly play the beautiful Nord and Orc races, though.

I think the point of the new elves is how inhuman they look, that and the aldmeri dominions expansion lore gives me the impression they are really trying to distance the elven races from being humans with pointy ears that have been around for a while and like magic.

Wow, the Dragonrend shout was a let down. I thought "This sounds awesome! I wonder what it'll be. Will it be like a a strike of energy from the heavens? Or sapping the energy from him?"

*Uses Dragonrend*

Spoiler:

...Wow. It took away my only advantage against dragons; the fact that they like to fly off and let me heal myself... Helpful...

I use it to bring Dragons down to taste my Daedric Axe.

If it was an additional effect of something like a strike of energy, i'd be fine with it, but as it stands it's a bit of an underwhelming shout to me.

It's funny, you don't really see many of the beast races. It's almost like I'm the only Argonian in Skyrim!

Argonians are in short supply. Prolly too cold.

I've seen a lot of Khajiit caravans (or maybe just one Khajiit caravan a lot of times) and of course there's M'aiq the Liar.

I think there's an Argonian in Solitude that wants you to do something seedy for him, but my first paythrough is with a good character so I didn't inquire further.
