Hey!
Which of these are safe to take, dark brotherhood or the companions. I thinking of bugs problems

What system?

i did both at least a couple of time. although to be honest i only encountered a few minor bugs. skryim is by far the smoothest release at least for me. im on PC though. ive heard some horror stories from PS3 users.

Ya, I've done both quest lines on Xbox with no trouble.

i heard about some bugs with the companions. rare ones though.


don't know any bugs in dark brotherhood. even the companions ones are only bugs that i heard off. i completed both guilds multiple times already. no bugs for me on pc.

I have xbox 360

I've done both on XBOX with no issues. The benefits to being a Companion were useful when I did it early. I didn't feel they were as useful later. The DB was useful both early and later, so if I had to to pick one to do first, I would go companions.

The only bugs that I'm aware of in those guilds is the Companions only let you do one side quest before making you do a main quest in their guild line. Thus it "pushes" you through their quest line faster.

Had no issues with the Dark Brotherhood

i wish that the other guilds had done just that. had i know that the college questline was so short i would have spread it out more with sidequests. as it was, i was archmage before i knew it. they should make you do at least two sidequests in between main quests or maybe make you wait a couple of days so you time to do something else.

I've done both on XBox with no major issues.

But thats kinda what I'm saying...they only let you do one side quest, then you have to do a main quest for them. You can't continue doing radiant or sie quests to continue. To proceed in the guild you must do a main quest.

For instance, I did almost all of the side quests, before completing the mq at the College of Winterhold. In the Companions you can't do that.
