**•Skyrim Character Builds•** #1 *~Introduction & Summary~*

posted by zylice

Hello Dovahkiins! I'm Zylice and I will be writing article-guides about some of the different character builds in Skyrim! I have a list below of some of the classes & builds I'll be writing guides for. When they're published, they may not be organised by order of submission. That is why I will name each one with: #1, #2, #3 etc. It does not matter which order you read them. Just have a look at the archetypes that interest you and/or read them in order of submission if you wish! *^_^*

#NOTE: These are NOT "roleplaying" guides, these are simply "power-levelling guides." If you want to ignore...

Skyrim Review!

posted by zylice

Wow. This game. Where do I start?!
Well, a short summary of Skyrim would be: Massive, Immersive, Addictive, Full of quality content, involving, can be as easy or as challenging as you like, gritty, realistic (for fantasy), magical, full of exploration and discovery. Is there a limit of how many commas I can use because oh boy, I could just keep going & going.

Here is the true review:
Skyrim is the ultimate fantasy RPG and is arguably the best Role-playing game ever. It may have a few flaws, bugs & glitches, but the large (and I mean LARGE) majority of the game is truly breath-taking!...

Belief in Mother: Part Four

posted by Tawnyjay

We spent the next two days and nights traveling. Wolves attacked us. We ran into a thief, who Fenia sent away with a few bad burns. I felt angry I had missed the fight (I had been sleeping), but Fenia just said that I would have plenty more where I was going.
When I finally saw the stables, I was ecstatic. I shrieked with glee, and hugged Fenia. “We’ve made it,” she whispered tiredly.
I made my way to a small house, and knocked quietly. There was a brief pause, and then a yawning woman appeared. “More travelers?” she sighed.
“I’m sorry to trouble you, miss.” Fenia stepped up...

How the Content Works

posted by vagos

The central story of the game -- the unwelcome return of the fearsome dragons -- is told in the main quest. As the main character, you're free to move this quest forward at any pace you like. Feel like developing your education with the mage guild for a dozen hours or so? No problem. Or is it time to indulge in some stealthy assassinations? The main quest will be waiting for you when you are ready.

This system really makes you feel that you are in control of your overall experience in the world of Skyrim. It also gives you meaningful chances to actually role-play, as many of the quests have serious moral and political choices to make.

You also don't have to go it alone. There are many recruitable characters in the game who can help you on your adventures.

On to Skyrim

posted by vagos

The big question we RPG nerds have been wondering about -- Would the next chapter of the series be an improvement or a step backward? -- has finally been answered. The good news is that Skyrim feels like a distillation of everything Bethesda has learned from the earlier games, not to mention their experience with Fallout 3.

First of all, the setting: each Elder Scrolls game has taken place on a different province of the continent of Tamriel. Skyrim is the northernmost province, and its a wild, rough, cold and mountainous place. Its two hundred years after The Oblivion Crisis that you took care...

My Skyrim Rules!

Looking for a deeper Skyrim experience? Here are some rules that can improve your role-playing experience.

Questions can help deepen your experience when you're not busy completing quests. Is there a particular race or type of person that your character doesn't particularly like? Does your character have any weird habits like only eating raw meat or traveling only at night? Are they religious? Do you place offerings at the shrines? Do they have a tendency to overindulge in drink or sweetrolls? Do they collect skulls or pottery? There are literally hundreds of questions that...

**•Classic Warrior Build Tips!•**

#Combat:
•You need a weapon in one hand such as a: Sword, Axe or Mace with a shield in the other. You can either do a "shield-bash" or a "power attack" to stagger your opponent whilst making time for you to effectively slice them up. You could also use a bow for taking out enemies at a distance, then switching back to your shield & melee weapon of choice as they approach you. If you want to deal double damage, dual-wielding is a great option! It's really effective with groups of enemies (especially with the perks: "Dual Flurry" & "Dual Savagery")...

Skyrim Role-Playing Guide

posted by zylice

In this topic, everyone can share their ideas of what makes role-playing fun for them and explain the things that they do. I have made a list of some of the things that I do which have been inspired by pages that I will leave links to at the bottom.

#NOTE#
If you're a PC player, please leave some mod suggestions that can help increase people's immersion! :)
(I will suggest some mods below my own 'rules.')

Here are some of my ideas:

- Only make choices and do whatever your character would do. (#•Stay in character no matter what you would do.•#)

- Make a journal to record the major happenings,...

But...

posted by vagos

Alas, all is not perfect in the northern mountains. This is an Elder Scrolls game, after all, which means it's got its share of bugs and other problems.

The bugs you encounter will depend on your luck and what system you play the game on. But they include such things as invisible armor pieces, dragons flying backwards, quests that wont leave your quest log even when completed, and quest items you can never remove from your inventory.

The worst bug I encountered was a glitch that kept me from progressing in the Thieves Guild quest line. This was a shame, as it was an interesting story; and the...

Shout it From the Rooftops!

posted by vagos

The real power held by the dragons of Skyrim are in their voices. As a Dragonborn, one of the most interesting activities you'll engage in is discovering, learning and equipping various dragon shouts. Ancient words of power, you discover these by reading runes scattered all around the world of Skyrim -- most of them in difficult-to-reach places such as the end of a challenging dungeon. The shouts give you various abilities: to push back and stun enemies; to breath fire or ice; to knock dragons out of the sky; even to slow down time. Each dragon shout has three components that must be found...

**•How To Make Skyrim Run Better On PS3!•**

Tired of the game-breaking lag with your 20meg Skyrim save files? Here is a guide to help prevent these issues:

1) "Deleting Excess Save Files"

•Go to "Save Data Utility" on the XMB & check how many Skyrim saves you have. If you have more then three, delete them. You must only have three saves maximum. Also make sure to delete any "Auto-Saves."

2) "Freeing Up HDD Space"

•Check how many GBs you have left on your console. Go to "Settings," "System Setting" & then open "System Information." It will show you how many GBs you have used and...

**•Battlemage Build Tips!**

#Combat:
•Use a one-handed weapon (Sword/Axe/Mace) and a DEFENSIVE spell in the other for mid-range combat. (Use frost against warriors & shock/lightning against mages.) This is because the weapon deals enough "offensive" damage, while the "defensive" spell weakens enemies, giving you time to attack. When the enemy is affected by the spell you just cast, run up and smash them up with your weapon. When you're out of stamina, just switch back to your magic. Repeat this until your foe is defeated. If you do have plenty of stamina, just do a power attack if they're...

Skyrim Fans Will LOVE 'Hunted The Demons Forge!'

Skyrim Fans...try Hunted: the Demon's Forge!

(#*This article is NOT by me*#)

"A really great game that cam out this year from Bethesda and InXile was Hunted: The Demon's Forge. Despite good exposure at E3 and other venues, sort of premiered as Gears of War medieval style (3rd person with cover system), Hunted did not do as well as developers had hoped. In a year full of big name franchise releases, if you weren't paying close attention to game releases, it was easy to overlook any of them.

As I have been playing Skyrim, I have been seeing alot of similarities in style to Hunted...the difference...
