Such Little Detail Amazes Me

Post » Sat Jun 16, 2012 6:29 pm

This game is truly one of a kind. I was in awe of the graphics of the game, the deep quests, and the amount of time put into this game by Bethesda. Yeah some glitches here and there but it's no wonder why Beth has one of the most fascinating titles of all time.

I decided to read some books that i recently found and its crazy how good they are. The lore is expanded so much by reading them I didn't realize Beth put so much into the game even the detail in the books is outstanding. Its amazing how they talk about past heros and enemies in Skyrim like Giermund, Gaulder, Red Eagle etc.

Has anyone else taken the time to look into the books in Skyrim that deal with past legends? It does make RP quite easier.

I love reading the books after a long day of adventuring. Even when I am adventuring, I'll sometimes come across one with an interesting title or seemingly out of place that turns out to help me out with a puzzle or finding new adventures to embark upon :)

I do, the lore is one of the high point of this game, it makes the game seem so much more realistic.

That reminds me, I was going to read the Wolf Queen but didn't want to start until I had all the volumes. Time to start searching. Unless today's update destroyed my file.

Sometimes I get distracted during an adventure. I finish reading only to realize that I forgot about that draugr who was going to kill me.

I love reading the books, most of them are pretty interesting and Lore-filled.

It's always been one of my main goals in the Elder Scrolls games, to read and collect all of the available books in the game. Nothing joys me more than shelves filled with books that I own, always gives me a sense of accomplishment.

Haha, I do this all too often...I'll start digging through corpses and chests only to find my face caved in by an enemy still lurking about
