Being a werewolf is cool, even though there isn't that very much to do.

The walrus are cool, though they are called horkers in Skyrim. They aren't very hostile either which allows me to watch them pretty closely. Not like the polar bear I've been seeing up north lately.

Thanks mALX ^^. I haven't met any werewolves walking around so I really couldn't say. I've only seen them in quests.

I like the scenic views I get in Skyrim and the sky looks awesome.

Scenic and some more sky mixed with another piece of sky and to top it of we go for a ghostride.

Love the pink sky one - and the ghost-ride, what is that?

I noticed the aurora on my screen looks like the one you just posted, but Victoria's aurora is spectacular and colorful. Does anyone know what causes that? Is it something I can fix to get a more beautiful gameworld?

Do you mean this aurora? I've seen both versions in the game and both looks awesome, though I'm partial to the blue/green one myself and I haven't seen the other one with a clear sky yet. By the way I'm running on ultra settings at the moment, but I don't know at what quality steam takes the pictures.

There are already several mods that make the world look better, I tried one of them for a while but then I had to re install the game(no idea if it was because of the mod) and I haven't gotten around to installing it again.

The ghost ride was just something I came upon while out riding on the tundra west of Whiterun during the night. I've seen it twice and I still have no idea what it is. Figured I should follow it this time and see if it took me somewhere, but no such luck.

I hope Victoria doesn't mind me quoting her screens here. These are Victoria's shots of the aurora that I'm referring to. I have never seen these colors in my game's aurora, in fact my game colors all look a little ... colorless. Here are the links to Victoria's screens:

Well, Victoria also touches up the shots with an editor before we see them. So it only looks like she's playing a better designed game then the rest of us. tongue.gif

I've seen similar to those colors, but like I said never with a clear sky. Her pictures does look a lot better than what I've seen in game though, like ever.

Thanks King Coin!

Ulvith went dungeon crawling, and what she found at the end totally made up for the lost time. Pic

Good thing that she kept her guard up doing it, or it might have taken her down. He nearly boiled her alive as it was. However the beast didn't have it in him which meant that Ulvith was the one still standing in the end.

After a long day she headed back to Whiterun, clearing the skies in the hope of getting a better look at the aurora. But the clouds wouldn't bulge and only gave her small peeks.

The last one is great, I love the mountain in the distance, the stars, the clouds, and the aurora all fighting for sky space.

I didn't look at the other ones, they sounds kind of spoiler-y.

Oh! Ulvith just found a great view, and the middle paragraph only contains pictures of her fight with a random dragon. No quest spoilers there I can assure you tongue.gif

Deesei's wife desided to make an appearance.

Then Deesei found a good place to look at dragons.

Another cool looking sword.

Edit: added pictures since double posting is bad!

Thanks!

Deesei found a dragon! But it wasn't very happy to find her, so she had to fight it. Pic 1, Pic 2. Pic 3. In the end, Deesei won.

And went to fight another dragon. Luckily its buddy didn't go after her.

That ebony sword looks fantastic! It is too bad you have to fight dragons all the time. From looking at all the screenshots everyone has of them, it seems like you cannot swing a daedra by the tail without hitting one.

It's not too bad. I can wonder for several hours without seeing scale nor tail of one. But they do tend to make very photogenic fights that beg to be screenied.

Great shots, so far I haven't had two dragons in the same area yet, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

Thanks mALx!

I've actually sought out most of the dragons I'm fighting, I've come across several when out travelling but if I keep going long enough they eventually give up. I love the dragon fighting though, so personally I don't mind it. I think I've been playing with Deesei for almost 60 hours, and she isn't close to getting all of the shouts.
I played with Ulvith(and Sa'Quira) for a while before embarking on the main quest, and I didn't see the wing membrane of one between Helgen and reporting to the Jarl. So I think that's a good way to avoid them as well, though the shouts are quite useful.

I love taking pics of the dragons, they look so great! Just you wait until the end of the main quest, I'm not going to say anything, but it was awesome!
