The most boring thing in Skyrim is when I buy my first house, do a lot of traveling and stockpiling in the house, then later on I'm like... I kinda wanna move into this other house.


Moving thousands of pounds of armor, weapons, ingredients, ingots, etc. (even if you bring a follower to help carry more at once) is soooooooo boring.

I just stock up each house and don't bother moving stuff around.

Game difficulty or lack of challenge does not bother me really - I can always up the difficulty and/or find other ways to challenge myself.

However, what does kill the desire for me is the lack of consequences relating to my actions. There is such a build up, and then ... well, nothing. That tends to take the wind out of one's proverbial sails.

I made this Orc assassin level 56, while in master difficulty I was able shoot down a blood dragon with a sneaky arrow, killed an ancient dragon with one melee sneak attack and killed Alduin with two duel-wielded power attacks .

After that I just stopped playing Skyrim.
I had the same problem, being overpowered made it boring to me, so instead of striving for all combat related perks, I decided to do something about it. I deleted my lvl 45 paladin( A warrior that heals well/very Overpowered) and started a new. Basically I set some ground rules, no fast travel, no HUD, etc. I started Role playing basically, this got me more in-depth into the game, bascally percieving it as a different reality, kind of like reading a book but interacting with it. The only problem that I see now is, while my enemies take a realistic amount of damage (a few arrows and death) it seems that I take an unrealistic amount of damage. (multiple arrows to the chest) but maybe thats what I get for trying to percieve it more as reality then an RPG but thats ok I am aware of that problem and now can either up the difficulty and not spend so much perks in combat related trees or keep stressing about something unecesarry.

What I find as the key to keep this going and to take frequent breaks, what happens is you start to connect to the games reality rather then our own and you can notice all of the imperfections of the game.

The only things that bore me are entirely my own fault. Not fast travelling is great, until you have to see the Greybeards or the Blades. And taking every enemy's weapon and loading them back on to the corpses in an attempt to minimise save bloat is pure tedium, but I am at 17MB already.

Hearing townsfolk make inane comments and failing to react to anything going on around them.
