Description so this is what i've done with my weekend. hey, i had the days off, so it's not like i'm skipping work to play it or anything.

i am one of maybe four people who did not jizz themselves everytime they heard the word 'skyrim' before the game was released. i hadn't played an elder scrolls game before, so i didn't really know what to expect, and i hadn't looked into anything about the game before it was released. talked to a friend on the day it was released on steam, he decided to buy it, i bought it on a whim too.

totally don't regret it.

i've been having so much fun and i've barely progressed the plot at all. i haven't joined the stormcloaks or the legion, but i've accidentally become a werewolf, i've bought a house and crammed my single chest full of useless shit that's weighing me down but i can't bear to get rid of since i've sold so much shit the merchants are out of money, i've used almost all of my lockpicks breaking into people's houses, stolen gold from under the jarl's nose, been mugged for killing a chicken....and i don't plan on stopping there. the game is so beautiful and incredibly open ended that i never mind getting lost, because there's always something new to find. i never walk on the roads because nothing stops you from adventuring wherever you want to go. i'm really enjoying this game a ton.

so here's a quick doodle of my character. she's a redguard chick who wears heavy armor and always uses a sword and shield because i'm too retarded to be sneaky. sometimes i dick around with magic but my skill is too low for it to be very effective. sadface. i really enjoy how you can do any playstyle you'd like and you're not locked into a class. like, i'm very warrior-y, but i can still sneak and pick locks, which are really rogue-centric things in other games i never would be able to do as a warrior. i'd actually planned to try and rogue it up, but this is just suiting my playstyle better.

tl;dr here's some skyrim fanart because it's what i did all weekend.

hopefully it won't interfere too much with end run lol

skyrim (c) bethesda games i think, dunno if i'm spelling that right.

You... are you my twin sister?

Race: Redguard
Sex: Female
Battlemode: right = sword (mostly enchanted with frost), left = fire bolt
Armor: light, Nightingale armor + Krosis + amulet of Thalos + ring of health (+ sometimes shrouded gloves for the nasty work)
Favourite group/guild/questline: Thieves guild
Imperial or stormcloak: haven't decided yet, but I think Imperial (Ulfric only cares about Ulfric!)
Normal day: killing and robbing people, stealing all their gold unnoticed, breaking into their most protected chests and rooms, sneaking around in the Holds, killing dragons, finding treasures, looting dead bodies, burning down stuff
Best thing ever: Fus Ro Dah on the table in the Palace of Kings (where Ulfric lives) and look where all the stuff drops + don't get blamed for making a mess of the place!

I made a Khajiit named Nevehd I use specifically for sneaking and pick-pocketing because my high elf is too goody-goody to ever do such a thing, but I fail at it. I get run out of town every time. Whatever happened to cats being silent? DDDD;

Did you accidentally steal something while trying to talk to someone yet? xDDDD That happens to me ALL THE TIME.

I'm glad you like Skyrim thoughhhhhh~ <3 Your character looks like she's just made of awesome.

FUS RO DAH!!

I had the same situation as you, with the "never played an Elder Scrolls" game before. I was quite curious of how everyone was going apeshit crazy over the release and after getting some opinions off of Kosha and Alex I yielded and bought a copy for myself.
Ugh, it's just so good!

I too play a sneaky heavy-armor person, though my character is an Imperial bro who dual-wields axes or an axe in one hand and magica in other.
Also I just realized Skyrim characters sound like Mary-Sues outside of the context of the game, lol. "A KNIGHT ROUGE WHO DUALS WIELDS AXES AND USES MAGIC AND IS DRAGONBORN AND ABSORBS THE SOULS OF DRAGONS, HE IS DESTINED TO SAVE THE COUNTRY AS HE TRAVELS ALONE IN THE LANDS OF SKYRIM OMG"

I like the cute almost-smile your redguard lady has here. ovo

SKYRIM

Yeah I was likewise not that excited for it, but I couldn't resist trying it out. I'm an Argonian warrior-mage with decent sneaking and lockpicking, wearing light armor... So I've got a bit of all three playstyles there.

I really like the go-wherever-you-want nature of the game too. I got to windhelm by climbing down the really steep mountain next to it and going in through the back rather than however you were supposed to get to it. Was amazing, and I couldn't help but imagine my character marvelling at his own stupidity as he did it.

It's so fuuuun
I too became a werewolf unexpectedly, beats being a vampire which I killed.
And I've already killed a good number of dragons.

I've already done the Dark Brotherhood (read: Assassin's Guild) quests, the Thieve's Guild quests, and slayed a bunch of dragons. All in all, a great weekend
