I think there is a mod that gets rid of the dragons at least the randomly spawning ones.

I have a few mods running and it seems that one of them has had some effect on the random dragon battles as they are not spamy for me while they once where before I modded any.I am thinking that the Unofficial Skyrim patch might reduce the spamage of dragons that is the only mod that I have that effects spawns that I am aware of.

Here is a specific mod that reduces them cant say how it works I have not tried it myself: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/16724

The most annoying random Skyrim creature spawn I have seen myself was a giant that walked up to Lakeview Manor right after I had just purchased 3 chickens and a cow the giant smashed all of my chickens and nearly squished my poor cow.That giant walked a long way just to kill my poor hens.I have never seen a cow move so quickly before she was inspired by preservation I recon.

I don't play this game, but if I ever start, I'm definitely going to get this mod...

:haha:

What! :o :nope: :nope: :nope:

I hope I read that wrong....

One does not simply "not play Skyrim"

You must play Skyrim. Even without a Halo mod...you will love it. K? :arrgh!:

That'S a golden tip, if that mod functions as advertised. Thank you! I definitely will try it.

Giants at Lakeview Manor are an endangered species over here. My gang loves them to be around, for always having fresh spread on the bread during evening meal. Processing giants is like opening a tetrapack, that fast they are at it. :D

Kidnapping my wife Mjoll the bandits also tried just once. I mean they tried it several times, but usually I just collect their remains in my garden. :sunny: When Mjoll says she does not feel like wanting to make a trip today, then she means it, and Aela and the housecarl are there, too.

Plus the raging bull. :haha:

And the occasional Draugrs - I strongly assume they already get delivered in that flat-laying state. Since my housecarl started to patrol the Manor, I never have seen one Draugr near the house standing on his own feet.

OK now I shall have this next pay day :yep:

I've never seen draugr at Lakeview, but I do get the occasional giant. While my houscarl and I are able to bring it down easily, it always seems to kill at least one chicken before we can. The chickens don't respawn and there isn't the option to replace them, so before long I've got 3 dead chickens. Pisses me off like nobody's business. I also have no idea why it goes after the chickens. It never seems to be interested in the cow, so once the chickens are dead it just stands there until attacked.

You won't regret it. :up:

That would depend a person that was not a particular fan of RPGs and fantasy type games might not like Skyrim very much.

With any Bethesda RPG possessing a good imagination would also be helpful as Bethesda story lines are average at best.Bethesda game are all about the openness of the worlds they create for some people this is enjoyable for others it might be boring because you have to fill that world yourself.I would honestly not like Skyrim very much if I had to play it on a console and be unable to mod it.I would play it then only maybe for one complete play through.

Same goes with other Beth games like FO3,FONV,and Oblivion.The mods that playing these games on PC adds a massive amount to their re-playabilty.

I never was a big RPG person until I discovered Morrowind. I still don't play many RPG's.

I have all the TES games, FO3, FONV, Dead Island, and I played Pokemon as a youngster. That's the limit of my RPG Gaming.

That is fine but what you like is your opinion simply because you like something does not mean that everyone else will.

If you do not play many RPGs then you cant really formulate a solid opinion of what makes a good RPG when you only have experience with basically one formula (the one that Bethesda uses and has choose to simplify with each game).

Skyrim though a decent game in general its skill development system is overly simplified and uninteresting you are forced to create the in depth elements of your character on your own and imagine that your a ranger or a battle mage because the game itself will never describe you as such.

Isn't that what makes it fun? Heck, I don't care if the game calls me an idiot.

I can still be whatever I want to while playing it.

I haven't heard of anyone who has played Skyrim and then not liked it.

"Kopfkino".

Means as much as: cinema/movies inside the head.

You understand exactly what I am saying.You should not have to completely imagine the majority of your character's story in an RPG.
Yes you should to some extent with the nature of what an RPG is. Skyrim has you do all of this yourself.When it should be the other way around an RPG should have a very intriguing story and depth and then you add your own Kopfkino on top of it.

@RedOctober I am not trying to tell you that Skyrim is a bad I am saying as an RPG it should on its own be much better than it is it could soar on its own but it does not.

Where does Skyrim call you an idiot?

I'm sure there's an NPC somewhere that says that.

I added that for "fluff" or extra stuff to add to a post.

And no matter what, I like to imagine parts of my character in any game.

Even in CoD....

Even in Flight Sims....

It doesn't matter the game, I still imagine parts of my character. I'm just used to doing that so I have no problem with it in RPGs.

Although I agree with this, I do believe the intention of not "describing you" is to not put a "Label" on you and therefore pigeonhole (correct use of the term?) into a certain class. I enjoy it personally, I made a character that I wanted to be as non violent as possible and had him hunt animals and skin them to make Septims, quite fun actually. Especially when you make a killer shot on deer or something of the sort. I find hunting fun due to the variety of land.

I fear you got it completely wrong what I meant. Skyrim, or any game or sim, triggers the movie in my head that I want to see. I buy the ticket. And what I put into it, decides what I get out of it. When I read a book, it triggers a "Kopfkino", a movie in my head that I cut and film myself - I interpret how this or that character look in my fantasy, and basing on the pieces the book gives me, i decide how his/her voice sound and what the motives for acting are. It is not a movie on a screen that I follow and that gives me all that - Kopfkino means I have to do the job myself, to varying degrees. A book is most free in leaving the authoring of the details to your imagination, a film is the most stringent and leaves you the smallest freedom to your imagination, you get given all looks and sounds. A computer game is somewhere in between the two. A text adventure leaves much to your imagination, a graphical adventure like Skyrim gives you more standards that you must include in your Kopfkino.

The dispute of whether Bethesda'S games are role-playing games or not, is many, many years old. I always found it to be completely pointless and irrelevant. You like the games, you play them. You like them not, you must not play them then. What your fantasy invests into the game, is what the game returns to you in immersion and entertainment value. I have plenty of imagination and fantasy, I always had. I love Bethesda'S open world role playing games, therefore. For the same reason I love to play The Hunter currently (currently the most played game over here, literally every late evening I play two hours at it)): I enter a different world, and my mind gets lost in it. I find this mini holiday most relaxing and entertaining. That is no escapism. Escapism it is if you enter - and do not want to find the way back into this world, and do not want to return from the fantasy world again. When your "real" life starts to suffer from your fantasy life, no matter whether book, film or game based - then it is escapism.

But its all just the movie playing inside my head. Kopfkino.
