Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Society

Haven't come across a single bug tbh. Any bugs that have been highlighted in reviews have not been game-breaking bugs, just minor ones.

Hi guys,

I'm thinking of getting Skyrim tomorrow! Only thing being I haven't played many RPGs, Fable is probably about the most hardcore I've gone :P Would someone pretty new to the genre be able to make sense of it/enjoy it? I'm off sick from work until at least January so I have plenty of time and want to get addicted to something to take my mind off things :P

No you're not. You're free to be and join whoever you want and it won't affect the story. Don't bother starting again as the difference will be negligible.

I have not got the game yet, but I've got a quick question. Does the the game follow the typical Elder Scrolls fashion and provide a printed map with the packaging? I am a huge fan of those maps.

Crouch + arrows + daggers + poison + light armour + lockpicks + speech

I always found Argonians and Bosmer/Wood Elves to be the best sleuthers, Wood Elves because they're the best archers and Argonians because they can spend infinite time underwater and can regenerate if they get spotted and engaged in combat. Bretons are excellent stealth mages, as well. Stealth is also about being able to talk your way past confrontations, avoiding detection altogether, and higher speech will also let you get more for the extra loot that you can bag without cumbersome heavy armour and weapons. Use poison on your weapons to increase their efficacy.

Just a curiosity, if skills are leveled by performing them how do you level up "speech"? surely all characters do a similar amount of speaking...

Buying and selling things contributes towards your speech level.

The voice actor for Farengar is really bad.

Also Irileth runs like a spaz.

It's good so far though.

How come when I go to a town everyone attacks me?!

Have you stolen/attacked anyone without going to jail/ paying bail?

I got a physical map on like, paper that was made to look like parchment.

Not sure if this is standard however.

Do you have the standard version of the game? If not, I would be very disappointed if the regular version of the game does not have a physical map.

Yup

Mine has 'Physical Map inside' written on the box, so maybe you might want to watch out for that

Yeh, how do I pay or go to prison? What happens in prison?
