Or something to that effect, I can't remember the exact words. But I lolled because after all of that he's just giving me a lecture on Dwemer technology and its associated perils all cool as a cucumber.

Lydia is another one who always cracks me up when we come across a dungeon:

[Extremely enthousiastic tone]"Oh look, a cave! I wonder what's inside..."

As if she just hasn't learned after going through tens of them and always getting beaten up and attacked while inside

While middle in combat yes I think they could become very annoying since it's distracting.

If they only happen with the last guy in combat I wouldn't mind.

So far I think I've only gotten killcams for myself when finishing off the last bad guy in the area, or when one of them kills me. I'm using the first killmove mod I ever downloaded which I don't think adds a lot of stuff but every other one I tried added killmoves in the middle of combat when there are still other enemies around, and... no thanks. I always end up taking them off after one round of gameplay and reverting to the old one again.

@Fincuan: my funniest "cave" moment with the Magigolo was on our discovery of Frostflow Lighthouse. "There's a cave here... "

Uh, thanks, Mr. Know It All. Spoiler much?

I just saw this on RPS. So we're getting a buggy MMO that we can't fix with mods.

mookiemookie · 03-16-12, 10:31 AM

I have zero interest in multiplayer anything. Hopefully this wont divert too many resources away from Skyrim add-ons.

Based on what I read at that link and the other article it linked to, it looked like (if it's all true) they had hired a completely different team just for the MMO project or even subcontracted the whole thing out. Not like the actual TES development team at Bethesda was going to be putting it together.

Question: if I have a scroll that says it sets "undead" on fire, does that work on vampires? I'm never sure if I should save that stuff just for draugr, not that I remember to use it then either

, but I've come across a couple of vampire dens where something like that would've been mighty handy. I'm assuming it will not also set my un-undead followers on fire, so long as they're not right up close to whatever it does work on.

And they wouldn't have to be registered as "hostile" yet, right? I mean, in theory I could sneak in and unleash the thing and they'd all go "whoomp" and be set ablaze even before they knew I was there.

I know Dawnbreaker's special effect works on vampires, so I assume that the scroll would too.

Well, it's worth a try. Vampires are definitely undead.

Also: despite the somewhat short shrift given the Bards College in the game, it appears that Nords really *do* take their music seriously, cuz I just got the contract for the Orc bard in Morthal. So glad I asked Nazir for extra information.

TBH I've spent enough time in Skyrim's inns to make the idea of killing *all* the bards cross my mind more than once.

*my sweetrol..he took it..my sweetrol*

A beaten up Argonian on the road of Riverwood...well I know of no such thing.

After 1.5 download, must something be actiovated somewhere somehow? I have played this night and yesterday, but have not gotten any killcam at all - neither old nor new.

You mean the beta?
perhaps look in the launcher's Data Files to see if it's listed to be activated.
