I’m finally learning about shouts in Skyrim and mastering longer phrases. Level 49! Woo! (I do hope that you can still gain skills after that rather than just stop dead wherever you are.) I’m thinking that I’ve cleaned up enough of the side quests that I can start focusing on the main ones.
So… what are you playing?
Tee hee! I’ve determined that, while my current computer might run Skyrim, I don’t think it would run it well. The cost of upgrading my PC to where it would run Skyrim comfortably just about equals the cost of a 360, so…I’m working on finishing Dragon Age.
Nothing right now.
My son got AC:Revelations for his bday a few days ago. I started it yesterday, hadn’t read anything about it. So I’m playing along, feeling somewhat underwhelmed, when I get to a scene where I’m up on a rooftop looking at a narrow road, I can’t move, can only turn my gaze in a 180-degree arc, and the game is prompting me to place a Head Assassin on a nearby rooftop. Then I’m to place crossbowmen. Slowly the penny drops — “wtf-ing-f — who was the genius who decided to stuff a tower defense mini-game in the middle of an Assassin’s Creed game??!!?”.
I’ve played a bit more since then but I’m not really excited about it. Looking forward to getting Uncharted 3 tomorrow.
Wait, it took you till level 49 to get the hang of shouting?
I spent most (all) of my time doing side missions. I only today got around to talking to the greybeards.
I guess they were side quests that kept you away from dungeons.
Companions, Thieves Guild, that sort of thing… what dungeons did you need shouts for?
Most of the dungeons have a Word Wall in them that gives you one word of a shout.
I got those, I just didn’t buy them.
If he didn’t talk to the companions, he didn’t unlock Fus Ro Dah and was stuck with Fus. Did that also mean you didn’t get more dragons to fight and eat their tasty, tasty souls?
Oh, I had 10 dragon souls at one point.
I unlocked, like, 8 shouts at once.
DC Universe Online, I fun with character creation. Gameplay is okay, my friends who do this kinda stuff weren’t around to join me for the gaiety. I fear it becoming a time sink leaving me enervated.
