Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

Is anybody else the complete opposite in Skyrim? When I play I carry one set of armor, a bow, arrows, a melee weapon, and some potions. Clutter gets immediately sold or discarded.

[–]GundamWang 3 points4 points ago

Sort of. I keep 4 of the best kinds of arrows, in case I ever need to use 600 arrows at once in a dungeon, and then I keep the daedric rewards and unique armor sets in a dresser at home. But yeah, I only carry essential potions, one set of armor, and all the rest you said.

[–]underweartycoon 2 points3 points ago

I didn't start buying or keeping every arrow I saw until one fateful encounter with a dragon.

Firing happily away while the guards went batshit over a giant beast eating half of them, I wondered why I suddenly could no longer draw another arrow. Behold, I had run out. So I had to try and kill the damn thing with ice spikes. Only managed it just after the last guard got tossed like a ragdoll and decided I was its next meal.

Yup. 1000 Iron arrows and zero fucks given.

Yes. Though if I get lazy and have too much stuff to sell, if I can't do it in a single day in a single town, then I throw it in a trunk to be sold later.

I don't specifically know the answer with respect to Skyrim, but I'd imagine so given that mod-friendliness has kind of been Bethesda's 'thing' in the last decade or so.

It wouldn't be the first Steam game to not disable achievements when mods are present; Warband not only doesn't disable achievements, but gives you one for playing a mod.

[–]We_Are_Legion -2 points-1 points ago

Or the mod that lets you kill all the women and take the clothes off their corpses and then ogle at their boobs...

No need, the master pickpocket perk lets you steal their clothes my friend.

Meh most of the pictures you see are fake. Or well they didn't collect it themselves they spawned it.

Whenever I kill a civilian, I use soul trap. Then I enchant their shows using their soul. I have a bedroom full of shoes with people's souls trapped in them. Forever.

[–]Nerkson 18 points19 points ago

Do you...

Do you name the shoes after them?

I have it on Xbox. I can try and take a picture, but I don't know about quality.

[–]Chrosbord 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

My friend gave me the idea. He did it first on his PC. He also has far more soul-shoes than I do. I'll see if he can get a quality pic to compliment my shitty one for reference.

Well my friends and I are all doing it. Unless one of them posted it as well, all it means is there are other twisted people out there.

I considered filling a room with single gold coins so I could have a money bin, but then I thought, "What a waste of time."

Yes, that's what i was referencing when I said, "Money Bin."

[–]Starstryker 1 point2 points ago

Can you even drop coins? I tried once and couldn't find them in my inventory only thing I can do is put them in containers.

[–]Wibbles 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

They have models within the game, so you'd just have to type whatever console command it is to spawn them. Would lag your computer like a bitch though, 10,000 objects being rendered at once...

[–]FuzzyMcBitty 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

They're under "misc." I've never tried. I figured I'd just do it with the console.

[–]odintal 6 points7 points ago

I am drawn to do perverse things in games like Oblivion, Skyrim and Fallout 3.

The worst of which was when I was playing FO3 and went to Lamplight, decapitated all the children, put the heads on a bed and then slept in the bed for 48 hours.

[–]Lots42 1 point2 points ago

There's a game where you can decapitate kids?

Dwarf Fortress. You can beat a child to death with another child.

That beats Jason in Space all to hell. A confused Jason believed he was beating a camper to death with another camper.

[–]einsteinsolid 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That is actually an homage to a scene where he slams a camper into a tree once in an earlier Friday the 13th film

[–]timmyvos 0 points1 point ago

Or kill them with their own blood or arms! But remember: losing is fun!

[–]minno 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

They usually bleed to death too quickly after cutting off an arm for you to kill them. It's easier to just beat someone else to death with that arm.

Cos you can totally kill the kids in FO3.

Why?!?! WHY?!?!!??

[–]Vaskre 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Because they're annoying and in an open world game, there should be no protected NPCs. Ever.

I know we're talking about FO3, but this is true of Skyrim as well. I can't stand the Jarl's kid in Whiterun... "Oh look, another wanderer come to lick my father's boots. Good job."

[–]Vorlin 1 point2 points ago

I'd get the mod just for that one kid.

That child tasted the cold end of my glass dagger. Fucker. Now his soul powers a resist frost ring.

What I think is "There is a lot of lonely losers using console cheats to get some free karma"

[–]Sandmanifest 4 points5 points ago

Yeah. I upgraded my Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary to have the torture chamber. So I go to check it out when of course my girlfriend walks in.

"Why is that old lady shackled up naked and why are you shooting her in the kneecaps"

Well I already had the location of the treasure so I was just enjoying the full Dark Brotherhood experience. For the next 15 minutes she kept saying "Oh that's sick. That's just wrong. Why are you still doing that? What are you doing with those bodies? You're just sick" etc etc.

Meanwhile I'm thinking "Wow I can do this? I can't believe I can do that, that's pretty fucked up Bethesda, and old woman really? That's gutsy Bethesda. You're sick." I love it though.

I'm hoarding in a slightly less silly way. filling up a few buckets with jewellry, baskets full off veg, stacks of books, kettles with weapons and stacks of ingots. Rather than just filling the room with junk.

[–]fuseboy 1 point2 points ago

Makes me wonder if they nailed a certain kind of realism, but totally missed out on another. By the time there's a cottage piled waist-deep with dead bodies, wouldn't there be army of pitchfork-wielding villagers banging down the door? Then again, Vlad the Impaler.

[–]Lots42 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The villagers made the first layer of dead bodies.

[–]Xiuhtec 4 points5 points ago

If there is a table and chairs in the room I've killed somebody in, I'll spend a long time trying to make them sit naturally at it.

[–]chimpychimp -1 points0 points ago

I "collect" certain things, but they are all meticulously stored away in their appropriate container, whilst the pretty objects are placed for show around the house. I had to move out of the manor in Solitude because it doesnt contain nearly enough separate containers for all of the things I own.

I also have some kettles going that store certain things, like my kettle o' gems, kettle o' skooma, skull kettles and so on.

Feels good to organise man.
