What was the first thing that killed you in Skyrim? : V

» Sun Jul 01, 2012 9:10 am

Excluding the escape of Helgen.

For me, it was in Bleak Falls Barrow. Out of no where a Giant Frost Spider lowered itself from the ceiling and charged me. The first thing I did was try to run away but forgot where the way out was. That was what led me to my death. Eventually I found the door way it couldn't fit through so I burned it to death. It's funny now, because they were so terrifying back then, but now I can kill them with ease.

What about you guys?

~~Not counting the intro dungeon? Then probably wolves on the way to Riverwood.~~

Whoops, misread title, the first thing that killed me was a Wisp Mother.

How did you not encounter a wold or the three bandits outside bleak falls or the two inside or the draguar. Before that spider?

I think it was a vampire or water. I forgot. It's been a lot of months since 11/11/11!

The title is what killed you. NOT what you killed first.

Frost troll(s) in the mountains near Riverwood. Those things are tough pre-insane gear on master

My fault. Mine would be a troll

Mine would be when I got out of Bleak Falls a random dragon appeared before the Dragons were activated and I was mercessily killed.

Missed the jump into the burning building during the first scene. Really ruined that epic escape moment.

It's been way too long since I first played this game to really remember. I'm pretty sure I made it through the intro dungeon ok. I think I made it to Riverwood just fine. I don't think the bandits or the spider got me. It was probably one of the draugr that did me in.

Sliced by traps in Bleak Falls Barrow :/

I remember it was either a fall or the frost troll of the seven thousand steppes(level 13 he is no joke).

EDIT: he killed me several times in fact.

The aurora. Its beauty stunned me.

You mean besides the Imperials/Stormcloaks in Helgen Keep?

Some wolves that ambushed me and Hadvar on the way to Riverwood.

A torchbug.

Bloody things are deadly I tell you, deadly.

» Sun Jul 01, 2012 7:36 pm

Probably the frost troll on the way up the 7000 steps.

Way back in November, a giant.
All pre-release info taught us they would be non-hostile.

Bleak Falls, as soon as I cut the Dark Elf out of the web, he ran into the first Draugr. I was into the moment and let them creep me out, which got me hit more than I would have usually been. I backed up to take two of them at once inside a doorway so only one of them could attack me at a time, but right as I thought I had the first dead and the second near death, I was blown away by how cool they looked and got distracted staring at the details on the Draugr's face, and died my first death.

Riverwood.
I killed the chicken that wanders around Riverwood ... The people there weren't exactly happy about it

I'm more interested in getting their hired thugs on me, personally.

The Riverwood cabbage cart.
