This is balls.

I can't find Quicksilver anywhere. :( I just want to make my Gilded Elven Armour and my Elven Sword. :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((

Anyway for those that are interested I ended up changing to 1 sword and restoration magic in the other hand. Works pretty well for combat. Skills I'm focusing on (in order of which are highest.)

Smithing, One Handed, Light Armour, Restoration Magic, and Enchanting.

Made a wood elf. Liking it so far. :)

So, in the time since my last update on my character, the following has happened...

Married Aela, right now having her live in my Whiterun house
Finished the Thieves Guild questline, working on returning it to its former glory
Found out Sinderian's ultimate fate, Sinderian is/was the one Altmer I actually liked, he was the guy in Oblivion that told you about Nirnroot.
Started the actual Dark Brotherhood questline (not the throwaway assassinations you have to do before the contract)
Hit level 49
Own every house in Skyrim besides the DB Sanctuary
Finally got Detect Life (F***stick in Whiterun still doesn't offer it for sale, had to clear out do a quest that involved clearing out Treva's Watch)
Annoyed that in order to use Detect Life you have to continually cast it.

Also, I have to say, my favorite zone in this game is without a doubt Blackreach. Amazing that a cavern can be that beautiful, and it's f***ing gigantic

Appearing at the top of the throat of the world after defeating Alduin and being surrounded by all the dragons was so freaking cool

Probably the only one, but I don't see myself finishing the game for quite a while, having too much fun doing random stuff.

Just finished the quest "A Night to Remember" which was a highlight. Wonder where they got the idea for that one...

I'm finally starting to burn out after only really doing the main quest and thieves' guild... I think I'll do the brotherhood and maybe the imperials then save the rest for some future character when the dlc/expansion/mods are out, who also isn't a total bastard.

(even so I still didn't do nekos' spoiler i mean come on)

I almost did, although by accident. When he was chasing around the other dragon I used dragonrend and hit him and smashed him with my hammer, took away half his life and was like OOPS.

I haven't played in a few days. It's unfortunate because stealth daggers for 30x damage is so incredible. Legendary glass dagger with a soul trap enchantment + black star means unlimited souls.
Plus, I look Batman-esque with Nightingale armor and an Ebony helm. I really wish throwing weapons were in the game. Oh, and that unarmed had a dedicated skill tree.

So during the mage quest storyline where you solve the puzzle in the Dwemer ruins, the guy started telling how he was going to tell the Council about how the Mage College has a super powerful artifact......so I killed him then and there.

Hopefully that guy wasn't important!

I keep doing the same thing in both Revelations and Saints Row.

Right now I'm trying to finish my Daedric Armor in Skyrim. Only need two more hearts and it's done. Then I gotta make some weapons and enchant everything.

I think the last story mission I did was going to investigate the dragon burial ground with Delphine. I also dropped the horn off for the Greybeards. Since then I've just been wandering around. Finished the Companions questline, married Aela, got one of the masks, killed like ten dragons, etc.

just possibly

Just because loot is scaled doesn't mean that it can't be better than other scaled loot.

Still, I prefer entering a dungeon thinking '' Maybe there is some unique weapon or accessory down there ! Or maybe just a ton of wealth ! ''

Insead of '' Maybe there's a very minor upgrade to one of my piece of armor down there, and maybe a bit of gold ! ''

Note that I don't want all dungeons to have awesome stuff inside them, just that the fact that it NEVER happens is stupid as hell.

Also scaled quest rewards, probably one of the most horrible feature to have ever graced video games.

'' Let's punish people for finishing a questline early ! ''
