Do people actually unironically like this game?
The combat is just M1 + walk backwards or strafe

I'll agree but only with mods
Vanilla magic is just cock and balls torture

EVEN with armor that grants 100% mana reduction is still fucking ass. You need legit 5 minutes of button spamming to kill a single late game dungeon boss, even if you can paralyze them forever, when a single double dagger sneak attack will instantly kill.

The only good part about magic is that it's free XP. And that it works fairly well against dragons.

It's so fucking funny how the best spell BY FAR in early game is "Conjure Bow" because it gives you the strongest bow in the game with unlimited arrows, which helps Steal Archer even more.

just summon shit, your summons (and i think companions) don't have the difficulty debuff on them

>>738059820
>Conjuration is useless the moment you acquire the "Summon Daedra for free" item
The spell dremora are stronger, last more, and you can summon two with the right perk
I literally never used the staff

But yeah, you need mods.

The fact that the developers need to make the game beatable even through low IQ playstyles, e.g. button spamming your melee attack instead of setting traps or tactically positioning yourself, makes it so that single player games will never have good combat mechanics. The only good combat games mechanically speaking are either multiplayer or turn based squad games.

>Destruction magic is so fucking bad it's not even funny
Wrong, it just levels up slower on legendary, and you were probably too dumb to use alchemy. It takes two seconds to max alchemy, and then you should have more fortify destruction potions than you know what to do with.
>Conjuration is useless the moment you acquire the "Summon Daedra for free" item
Thrall spells, dremora lord is better, and double summoning
>illusion
dual casting the expert spells affects higher levels than master spells. Fortify illusion potions. The master spells affect 90% of enemies even without potions.
>You need legit 5 minutes of button spamming to kill a single late game dungeon boss
You definitely don't. I've done multiple legendary robes-only mage playthroughs, and this just isn't the case.
>>
>>738059416
What about a NON stealth archer?
>>
>>738059869
>big crits, dumb AI resets when they can't see you
if the AI actually searched for you and you couldn't abuse the stealth crits for more than once or twice in a battle, it'd be less used strategy, only for an opener.

Also, game has shit balance.
>>
>>738059416
I always play as the stealth mage in these games. Just nuke the shit out of enemies grom the 5 km away location, pickup loot
>>
>>738060353
Destruction needs level 100 alchemy + enchanted gear to do the same damage output a warrior can do with a weapon he found in a bandit chest
It's fucking bad anon, the game is just easy enough that you get by with it anyways. You are just spamming firebolts staggers all day long, every single other spell is functionally useless.

it's a nigger choice. Meanwhile mages are played by men who want to better themselves. We need to be better men.

i like illusion magic in skyrim
it's just so fun to cast fury on bandits, go invisible and watch ai ventilate each other
it's even better with sex mods
just imagine an average day at a random bandit camp becoming a non-stop 24 hour homo orgy

>>738059567
hiding shooting an opponent in the back and casting jew curses from a distance are kike-coded, rabbi

>>738059416
Crouch walking everywhere is such a pain in the ass and bows are way too slow
No idea why everyone plays skyrim as a stealth archer
>>
>>738059416
Stealth archer is Adept-coded

In Legendary the only viable build is Destruction mage with max Conjuration for summons

Any other build heavily relies on Enchanting cheesing to buff their weapon damage to broken numbers you might as well cheat

I simply bash people's heads in with a war hammer.

Is there a mod that keeps Skyrim vanilla but adds all of the QoL mods that fixes Bethesda's shit as well as 4k textures for everything?
>>
>>738059416
Mage is my favorite playstyle in Skyrim. Warrior is fun too. Then playing a pure thief (avoiding unnecessary killing) is a fun change of pace.
