Skyrim Remastered confirmed

[TKO18]

wait.... a one handed sword on his back? Is he that strong 

[TheWarzone1]

Lol well from what ive read you cant earn trophies while using mods. I guess it makes sense though. Id rather play without them anyway but i might check out a couple of them

[TKO18]

lol did they really add all the skyrim trophies that I just plat?
Don't see what mods have to do with earning trophies anyway. so eh. I'm not big on remorphing skyrim anyway. I just want some color variants of the clothes, mainly mage robes. Kinda gets boring running around in the green collage robes for the only non enchanted mage robe

[TheWarzone1]

I havent really looked through all the mods listed so im not sure what all is in there or how it would affect the trophies. Im gonna try to get this soon if i can afford it. If not ill get it for my bday lol

[TKO18]

link to the mods is up on the last page. 
I may take a look into some of them, but the main ones I want aren't up yet, and no clue if they will be

[TheWarzone1]

Me rocking the cultust robes. Took a few screenshots. Might post others later. Guard looks like he knows somethings up lol.

[TKO18]

haha... nice. btw, you going to set him on fire, or make Lydia do it?
I ran around in those robes once with a bounty hunter/mercenary warrior

[TheWarzone1]

Lol im just using them til i find something better. The 75% magic regen helps my wizard.

[TKO18]

never really used magic regen stat. normally use destruction reducing stats so they cost less 

[TheWarzone1]

Same concept really lol. Magic regen just makes it recharge faster so it seems like it uses less.

[TKO18]

thats good for early game though, later game, I norm just go with free destruction, and another spell thats good. Which is usually conjuration for the weapons

[TheWarzone1]

Snapped this one last night. Gotta love some Whiterun. Now if they would only update the ps4 so i could use it as a background...

[TKO18]

love whiterun? lol. its a nice place, people, as per usual are useless 
I agree though, ps4 needs to update that.

[TheWarzone1]

Lol i just meant the view. I tend to stick with the rebellion during the civil war. Which is one of my favorite questlines in the game. I did mamage to find an abandoned prison the other day full of ghosts. An area i had never seen before in my 200+ hours of playing lol. Amazing after all that time theres still stuff ive never seen and quests ive never done.

[TKO18]

Views are always nice, though. High Hrothgar is one my favs views. The other one thats fun is the Meridia quest where you fly
I've always enjoyed shooting magic from High Hrothgar towards cities. lol.

[TheWarzone1]

Its nice knowing even after 5 years of playing theres still stuff ive never done. It really shows the amount of effort they put into their games. Im jumping between this and neverwinter at the moment

[TKO18]

Nice. never played neverwinter. Will be back and forth with Skyrim and GTA V. hoping it comes early next week 

BTW, do you have a rough location of this prison?

[TheWarzone1]

Its just north of Fort Amol. If you go to Amol and follow the road north toward the river it will be built into the cliffside near the waterfall.

[TKO18]

Ah... I've seen that place before. never went inside, but right up the road on the other side, on the waters edge, is some dude named Lucky with a treasure map. He sadly wasn't "lucky" enough to avoid that fallen tree, which appears to have been taken out by a nearby dead mage

I know that area kinda well. Fort Amol is the only place that I've found a free Bound Bow Skill book. It was a surprising find too. It was hidden inside of a bucket, underneath a lamp in same bucket. I ended up blowing it out trying to kill the mages inside. lol

[TheWarzone1]

Yeah i actually found the exit to it first lol. Theres a drain pipe that leads out from one of the cells down to under the bridge near there. I found the drain then ran around that area til i found it

[TKO18]

nice. gonna have to check this place out when it comes. gonna be in that area to grab my bound bow. gonna see about making a mage bowman 

[TheWarzone1]

Ive never really messed around with bound weapons. Might have to check that out. My 2 mains have always been my wizard and archer.

Captured this screen the other night. A nice view of High Hrothgar. It's currently my laptop wallpaper now lol

[TKO18]

I changed the controls around... the menu buttons are still annoying, but no way I see to change those.

after playing through a few minutes, I've seen that the gameplay is faster then it used to be. 'less I just haven't played in awhile. Textures are way sharper and more detailed... I can actually see the eye colors now. As far as my mage goes, IDK just yet. I killed the torturer in the tutorial stage, where you unlock the cage of the dead guy. I, for the first time ever got the Imperial Mage hood that I couldn't get in ps3. It makes me look like an archer/ranger. So I'll prob end up playing an archer, and go for a mage later 

[TheWarzone1]

Yeah its definitely faster once they fixed the initial lag issue. One issue ive had, which really isnt even an issue, is having all the dlc right from the start and having to deal with those pesky vampire attacks lol

[TKO18]

I had one of those in dawnstar with my archer. Had to reload that one cause they killed the blacksmith. They attacked when I got back up there by the Khajiit. Good thing they fight good, and didn't lose any. I love the Khajiit Caravan for business. They got pretty much everything you could really want at early levels.

The thing that is weird for me playing it so far has been all the new little plants and bushes that were added to the game. I've actually had to go into third person and zoom out to find a dead guy for his loot, lol.

[TheWarzone1]

Yeah i had a vamp kill the blacksmith in whiterun. They try so hard lol. All that gear they sell and still cant take on a vamp.

[TKO18]

lol. had the same problem on the ps3 skyrim. She would always attack and die.
Thinking they should at least wear the gear

[TKO18]

Finally decided to start a mage alt. Wanted to ask, is there anything funny up with magic? It doesn't seem as strong as ps3 skyrim. I got destruction up to 40's but it seems like it takes forever to kill people and bears. Did they get more HP? Something def seems off

[TheWarzone1]

I havent noticed anything. Destruction perks should help

[TKO18]

I got the novice skill as well as the fire/ice/lightning perks for the extra damage percentage. still takes a few to kill off bears. not high enough skill level yet to get the next level so am currently at lvl 2 skills. Adept I think it is.

I had a nord mage in the ps3 one that could light up anything with magic. Maybe I need that Nordic Mage back
