That's pretty disappointing, makes me wonder if there will be some add-on expansion in the future just to pad it out a bit.

Bah, sunlight is for pansy vampires. Real vampires live on the edge!

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.

Also sunlight no longer kills you, just debuffs your stats a little and stops regenration by 100%. So if you have an item thats boosts stamina recovery your stamina would recover still (though at a much slower rate)

I quite like that version of Vamps to tell the truth, It makes them all the more deadlier by just being pale humans in the daylight, unstoppable killers at night.

Anyway, anyone else kind of burned out on the game right now? I usually use and abuse Magic, but I hate the magic system in this game, so it feels like it has less for me....

He could also turn into fog and command wolves.

Lost in my disturbing mind...

Say guys, I want to get Skyrim, but I heard that there's bugs here and there that when it all adds up it just makes the game annoying to play.

So I wonder, how glitchy is it? like, glitchy as in "it'll freeze every odd minute+terrible animation screw ups", or a "freeze up once in a while" kinda bad?

Also, can I avoid the giant spiders at all? I sort of have arachnophobia...

Magic was at its best in Daggerfall...

Except for graphically, the entire series was, but that's another argument entirely...

Being unable to create my own spells really annoys me.

In Oblivion I heard people about the alter of spellmaking in the province of Skyrim

I was busy with the Battle for Solitude, killed Tullius, and when I waited a few hours in Solitude to check it by daylight (any cool man attacks at night), I got attacked by 3 hired thugs.. Because I was a thief. The only thing I have ever stolen was, by accident, a basket.

Yeah, but there isn't any animation to the bears and the body isn't actually where the bear's body is(its where the spider's body actually will be)


I prefer the Mud Crab skin. Its a more proper alteration.

I finished all the major quest lines and am now at the "helping random people with insignificant problems" stage. One thing that annoys me is how powerful you can be with high enchanting. My Daedric sword hits 300 and thats not even close to its full potential if i bothered to get my alchemy to 100, you can easily hit in the thousands.
Playing with a friends high elf, its funny to see how much easier the early game is with a mage character.

Sooo, after 40 or so hours of no problems, I got two unfinishable quests in one hour.

First is the Peryite Daedric Quest, as a lever which is supposed to open a spike gate to allow you to get into a dwarven ruin hasn't spawned, so I can't get in.

The other is the librarian guy from the College of Winterhold, who told me to find Chirumavidium in Bleak Falls Barrow, when I had already picked it up, so now I can't get the quest to update, so the dialog won't update to allow me to give him the book.

Theres got to be a console command to reset the chira no?
Or auto complete the quest via a command.
Unless you're on a console?
