2) Skyrim didn't randomly crash half the fucking time.

Please tell me that's just PC D:

By the looks of it. Possibly a sound card/graphics card issue according to le steams.

Owh I know the fix for this

1. Go to your control panel

2. Press on sound.

3. Find your speaker and right click it and choose properties.

4. Go to advanced and choose 24bit, 44100 Hz (studio quality).
5. press use
6. play
If that don't work you're fucked

Ran into a dragon. Drew my bow and prepared for an epic battle to end all battles. Only to have it fly off and pick a fight with some mudcrabs.

The amusing thing is that the mudcrabs appeared to be winning.

1 thing:
control panel > sound > select your speakers, then 'properties' > advanced

and set to: 24 bits, 44100 Hz

save and exit

That only fixes the Crash at main menu problem. I know about this because it was the only way to actually start the game.

All the other crashes have nothing to do with the sound. I have tried every option in the sound devices. And like I said, it is random. Sometimes I can play for hours, sometimes for a few seconds. Just have to wait for a fix.

Turned into a werewolf ,frightened my companion, killed her, killed some bandits, then got stuck cause I was too big for the mine, waited till I turned human again
Handed in my quest, got hit up by a courier who granted me my inheritance of my companions money

BEST FIELD TRIP EVER!

3. Giants suck. One hit and you get to experience a birds-eye view of Skyrim... well a corpse-birds-eye view...

Oh sir, I disagree so much. Watch from 28:00 onwards, and you will witness the wonderful existence of giants.

Had a squad of three assassins with their contract on them waiting for me at a thief gig.

Saw a character named "thief" who got jumped by every single civilian in town - had like 12 people kill him. Looted him, and he had stuff like silver candlesticks and the like on him.

PC; no crashes. The occasional weird shadows when talking to people though.

Oh I also apparently encountered cicero who is part of the dark brotherhood

But not in that aspect, I encountered him with a corpse in his broken cart.
Then I reported him to the authorities on account of being insane

Did everybody else see the Headless horseman?

I was just about to kill a imperial group transporting one of those rebels. Then out of the blue, the Headless horseman comes strolling by ruining my conversation with the imperials.

My first instinct was to kill it but who would have guessed. The headless horseman doesn't give a flying hoot about being hit by weapons. Then he galloped off into the night.

2) Skyrim didn't randomly crash half the fucking time.

Please tell me that's just PC D:

I played 12 hours straight yesterday on the 360 with no issues aside from Giants flinging me into the sky.

That's how they work. They're giants. Uberstrong.

I was actually able to kill a giant before I even talked to the Jarl at Whiterun.

I guess I'm just good at kiting.

 

[pppppppppppppppppp]

Oh, I found a group of High Elf mages from some cult. The leader was a douchebag to me, and he asked me if I worshipped Talos. My character is a moralistic Nord, so I said I did. The leader got mad, then they kicked my ass with lightning spells.

Good times...

That's not a glitch; that's just what happens when giants hit you.

Helped a girl get out of a cave only to have her get stuck inside the cave entrance so whenever I try to talk to her to complete the quest I leave the cave. So I can't finish it -_-.

Was it a bugged character? Or a legitimate headless horseman?

OT: Yay, first escapist post!

I went to the ceremony for the bard college and suddenly some guy half way across the town burst into flames and it put a bounty on my head. Two gaurds jumped around the corner and killed me with their bows.

Having fun with the Dark Brotherhood right now. They turned out to be a little tricky to find. Also, It sure is fun to be a werewolf

 

[Killermud]

Strange thing happened to me, I killed a dragon inside a city and take its soul. All the citizens come to look upon which a little girl comes up and says "In all my years, I've never seen anything like this".

I'm thinking your like 12, what are you talking about!?

Yes, I stalked him he returns to what I assumed was his grave.

He's legit, and welcome to the forums.

You can just join the companions to become a werewolf.

Also, anyone else having trouble with a memory leak when going from one area to another?

I heard so much about the relationship/marriage thing, but haven't seen a clue as to how it works yet.

You need to go to the church of mara in one of the towns and talk to the priest about marriage. He'll sell you a necklace for 200 gold, and as long as you wear the necklace it apparently lets people know that you're single.

The only reason I would use the marriage system is because I run through companions/party members like paper cups.

1st one (Lydia the houscarl) Eaten by dragon randomly encountered near that big arching stone formation outside Solitude, rest her very useful soul...

2nd one (That guy you can bet 100 gold to beat him in a bar fight) was doing alright but unfortunately was torn to shreds by those creepy blind bat bug people deep underground in a dwemer ruin... What a way to go.

3rd one (The bard from the first town you come across, Riverwhatever) Acted like a ***** the entire time and then died like one at the hands of a freaking nord crypt zombie thing.

I am really running out of options here, and I'm sure word will eventually spread that my spouses tend to either disappear or die horrendous nightmare deaths.

Such is the price of trying to play a pure mage!

My friend killed an entire family in a town but, apparently one member had survived. Now he has assassins on his ass every other second and they're all being sent from that one guy. Its cool but, a little odd to me. Also a dragon attacked me while I was in a town. Bad for it cause guards attacked it with like a hundred arrows and it went down in a snap.
