Skyrim is pretty hard for me to get into as it is....reading forums saddens me and makes me less likely to play any given day XD I havent even had a character above lvl 22 yet might go back to oblivion for awhile until dlc. *shrugs* maybe replay DA:O....right....lol xD

Then don't read the forums. The forums are full of cry babies lol myself included. We come here to complain mostly.

yeah i noticed. I don't know, I like being part of the community. But *shrugs* who knows

haha the "community" bashes the game more than anything.

I like to talk about problems, but it seems like some people think that the game is too buggy. I cannot believe you havn't passed 22!!!! I did that in less than 2 days after I got the game. I love Skyrin, it's so fun.

And I have not experience 99% of the problems people on the forum face. But then again if I encounter any potential problems I reload a save and I AVOID that quest for a few days, complete quests completely unrelated, come back and voila the previously bugged quest is fine.

i was about to put skyrim away for good until i did the following. maybe, it will work for you, as well.

powergame an all-powerful hybrid that will allow you to do everything in one playthrough and not have to grind out the same repetative content.

this allows you to play with all 3 skill groups or any combo thereof EVERY TIME you pick up the controller. you aren't locked into a specific roleplay and can just play however you feel like playing that particular gaming session.

as well, contrary to the popular opinion on this forum, the most powerful character you can create is the hybrid, BY FAR.

why? because of a few worthless skills and useless perks. a basic problem of skyrim is the inability to play the character you planned until way to late in the game. by the time you get there the game is way to easy. by exploiting helgen and the trade skills (you don't have to actually use them in-game) and getting a whole slew of perk points right away, you can create the character you planned after only a few hours into the game. obviously, choosing the best perks that truely add power to your character is of the highest priority.

by doing this, i have prolonged the life of skyrim for myself.

as well, when i want to strictly roleplay i create a new character and DiD.

The unmistakable power of influence. I am certainly not above it. I don't think anyone is truly above it. My argument is that we need to fight it whenever we can. Go with gut instincts based on how 'we' feel about something. The same advice can be given for following dreams. Or even having dreams to follow.

Find ourselves, and find happiness.

???

Most of the people complaining still play the game. I know I do. A lot.

Personally i try to be somewhat constructive. It's all about hoping the series you like gets even better.

under the influence, perhaps, but, definitely not above it

I liked this game, more than good ol' Oblivion, but if you wanna go back and play that go ahead, it's your choice.

The fourms can be a pretty depressing place to spend your time... Until you realize that only the vocal minority whine the most (and they whine about things that can: either be fixed by themselves by using some mods available, or issues with the game they create themselves by using unsupported beta drivers, .dll files which are just crude 'hacks', overclocking etc).

The majority of Skyrim players (at least on PC) are very happy. Because the game just keeps getting better (even the official patches are now adding new content). Quest bugs and gameplay issues are being continuously fixed by the Unofficial skyrim patch. Graphics mods are taking skyrim to the next level, way beyond what it was at launch. All in all, it's a great time to play Skyrim. I'm satisfied with the game and I see no reason to express my happiness here on the forums while I can be happily playing the game instead.
