I just tried it after a few years and it's so fucking boring. I never beat the Dragonborn DLC though so I wanna do it to fill that checkmark. Think I'll just make a good old Orc with 2H and some destruction magick. Is the vampire skill tree fun at all?
>>695193818Emil's greatest contribution was turning the stealth system into Thief
The most fun way to play Skyrim for me personally was not playing it at all. It remains an all time classic for this reason. I do like the music though.
>>695193871That doesn't sound fun at all. Skyrim's levels are too bland and by stealthing around you will just handicap yourself for the encounters where stealth is unavoidable
>>695193818Uninstall and play Morrowind instead
>>695193818Uninstall and play Oblivion instead
>>695193818Sword and board if you want to actually engage with combat, since you have to time blocks and stuff. Skyrim doesn't really offer much of anything gameplay wise so it's just what kind of character you think is cool other than that. My last vanilla playthrough was a Khajiit archer necromancer, I kept the emperor as my dead thrall after assassinating him Vampire and Werewolf skill trees are kind of a gimmick. Obviously there are a lot of mods that add more depth if you want to do that. Dragonborn is underrated imo have fun
>>695194182>Sword and board if you want to actually engage with combatIt's literally not funI was just playing on my latest playthrough and it sucks to fight tough opponents with it. Couldn't beat one Silver Hand boss with my sword & shield , switched to dual wield and simply erased him with a couple power attacks.It's way more fun to play melee combat with leather armor + 2H in this stupid game
>>695193818coomer modded to the point of absurdity
>>695193818im playing it through the Lorerim modpack right now. Way more challenging, there will be mudcrabs more fierce than you at the beginning.prepare to die a lot unless you're a pro
>>695193818with mods.
>>695193818Install campfire, frostfall and one of the hunger mods, travel around skyrim setting up camps, exploring dungeons and trading with merchants, there was also some mod that changed prices depending on region, so it was actually profitable to travel from one end of the map to the other to sell shit.
>>695193818I balanced over 800 mods, quite a few of them disappointments. Don't be fooled by some of the more popular ones, like AGO, as it's solid trash.Followers also suck, as do most mods that add things to areas to enhance them.As for the game play, I'm a bow player, but bare knuckle brawling melee is also better than sword play.Also, some of the script mods are fun, and funny. Installed sexlab, defeat, and fertility, and fertility yielded sime pretty messed up results when certain NPCs started procreating, Alabama style.
>>695193818 I know it's a meme but Skyrim modding is more fun than playing the game
>>695194009>that doesn't soundhave you played morrowind or oblivion? stealth in those games are fucking ass and the level design rarely ever contributes toward it. Morrowind especially has the WORST stealth out of the three most recent games.
>>695193818>2 handed playstyle>magicOne of the many things bethesda gutted with their "improved" two hand system that actually does nothing for build variety
