"promise" her "six" afterwards...

To get GF into Skyrim, watch Tron.

Oh holy crap. That's probably the most effective bit of advice you could get. Just be sure to say "Yeah, but I couldn't make a character as hot as you." She'll know you're full of [censored] and just buttering her up, but she'll probably find it cute enough for it to work anyway.

A slick move, I like this one. Don't do it hoping it'll make a gamer out of her though.

Thanks for all the help guys...well not ALL of it haha. I'll invite her over and just be playing it as she comes in. Then hopefully she will start to find it interesting

In Skyrim it's a Staff.

this. lols.

Mine has always been a Staff.

Well, the way some of those tavern chicks dress, a wand very quickly becomes a staff, amirite?

Christ, how did this thread go down this path? This is my fault, isn't it?

@OP

If she doesnt like Video games, dont force it.. Just let her have a different opinion. My fiance's exact words when she saw me playing skyrim today were "Are you geek gaming again?" But she doesnt really care.. its just something she has over me. Then I tell her to cook me some eggs.

Speaking from personal experience...if she does play, you might consider lowering the difficulty.

My girlfriend plays on adept and it is painful to watch...I feel so bad for her poor, inept dovahkiin.

She has a tendancy to panic in combat and flail around, crouching into sneak for no reason, switching randomly from 1st-person to 3rd and back again, shouting at the floor/wall/ceiling...painful yet hilarious.

Dunno, she already likes fantasy. Why not show her an epic duel with a dragon? The epitome of an heroic fantasy battle?
I almost got my girlfriend into Skyrim, until she saw me killing a bear (she's a... urm.... very orthodox veterinary), that was an instant turnoff for her. Pixels or not, animal cruetly and all that.

Needless to say, she still likes Amnesia: The Dark Descent

EDIT: Or it was a rabbit?

Haha reminds me of when I played 007:Goldeneye with my ex. I found her running against a wall while aiming at the ceiling. I couldn't even bring myself to shoot her... then by total chance she karate chops me and I die lol.

My fiance was actually the one to convert me with Morrowind, back in the day. Before that I was sort of biased against WRPGs. Now we share in the excitement.

I converted mine...hell i bought her her own xbox on black friday...I introduced her to fable II on my xbox she loved it because of the marriage and etc...then fable III loved even more because you can decorate and stuff...then sims 3...that's when i had to get her own console. Just gotta introduce them to somthing fast addicting like WoW or sims there's now way I'll let her play skyrim then Ill lose it all.

Just play around, talk to people in town, kill a dragon or two and see if she's paying any attention at all,
if not, concentrate on her.

If you're not into that then well..respecc?

Ooh, the original N64 version? Yeah, that game made it real easy to do that sort of thing. Great game though, and Perfect Dark was even better.

So many sad trolls in this thread who never ever seen a girl in real life lol... at least they act like that... it's sad to look at...


But to get to the point: You don't really have much chance to get her to playing if she is overall not interested in games... I mean, if you would just find museums horribly boring, then would you go to a museum on your own? Sure, people could force you to go, but you would just be bored and not enjoying yourself.
This was just an example, it probably would work like that if you would force her to play... but who knows... there is some chance that she might get to like it after some time...

I was always interested in games, so it's not a big deal for me to play, however i have male friends who just hate games... it's pretty rare, but it happens ;D

Many men enjoy it, but convincing your girlfriend to Skyrim may be a challenge. So how do you fulfill this fantasy if your partner is against it? First things first: talk it over. Find out exactly what makes her hesitant to try it and then see what you can do to belie her fears. Once you’ve done that, the next step to convincing your girlfriend to Skyrim is to address the following issues.

Pain vs. pleasure
Many women only try Skyrimming once and then swear it off for life. This is usually because their first attempt was painful. If your girl has had a bad Skyrim experience, it’ll be tough to get her to try it again. Even if she’s never tried it, she’s likely heard horror stories from others. Unless your girl has a masochistic streak, pain is not on her agenda when it comes to playtime.

Skyrim is action-packed and with the right kind of stimulation, Skyrim play can feel amazing. Unfortunately, the same cluster of nerves responsible for the pleasure can also transmit feelings of pain and discomfort if your technique is off. When convincing your girlfriend to Skyrim, you must show your concern for her pleasure and safety by sharing your responsible and well-thought-out plan.

Perfecting the setting
First of all, she needs to be relaxed and prepared; Skyrimming is not suited for a quickie. The opening will be uncomfortable if she is nervous, which will make it hard for you to get her into it and more painful for her. If it’s her very first time, you need to make a big deal about getting her ready. Pick a time and place where she can be relaxed and away from any extra stressors. Make sure you won’t be interrupted.

You probably already know what really turns her on, so whether it’s a bubble bath and a massage or hardcoe Teaser Trailers and costumes, have your tools at the ready. Getting her aroused is of the utmost importance.

Getting started
Do not skip straight to Skyrim. Instead, take your time with role-play and make sure she’s into it before focusing your attention on your desired destination. Then, start her off slowly by using your mouse, fingers and/or other tools to stimulate her appetite before your character comes anywhere near it. You might even want to just use smaller pointing devices and your fingers until she gets used to the idea of playing through that particular opening.

Good girls don’t
You might also have a hard time convincing your girlfriend to Skyrim because she views it as deviant and not something a good girl would do. Although the taboo has faded considerably, there is still a prevailing attitude that Skyrim is for bad, easy or [censored]ty girls. If she’s worried about this, you need to assure her that you do not think of her that way and that your attitude would not change after the deed is done.

A note on teaser videos and Skyrimming
Do not emulate teaser video stars when it comes to Skyrim. Professional Skyrim players are either stretched out in the pre-release or too high to notice the pain that results from the minimally prepared, no forethought, extremely rough Skyrimming that almost always occurs in screenshots. They may also have used an exploit or cheat to dull the pain of Skyrimming. This is an extremely dumb idea, since pain is your body’s way of telling you that something is wrong. Even if she can’t feel it, the act of Skyrimming could still be causing damage to very sensitive areas that will protest plenty once the numbing effect wears off. Plus, deadening the game with exploits also ensures that none of the pleasurable sensations will reach her either.


Hope this help!

WTF I want to play that Skyrim, not this silly video game

Tell her she can download My Little Pony mods... Then have give you a sky-rimjob.

XD XD XD XD XD FUNNIEST THING EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doesn't that happen to everybody?

Tell her the kitchens are beautiful.

You can't force it. Ask her if she wants to, and promise you'll try something she wants you to do in return.

If she still doesn't show any interest after playing a few hours of Skyrim, with you helping her if she needs it, then don't push the issue. It'll only cause her to dislike it more.

Maybe try again in the future.
