so today I decided on a whim to play Skyrim. It's been about 6 months since the last time I played, and since then I imagine some of the 100+ mods I'd installed have had time to update and conflict with each other. so, I opted to continue a previous save which happened to be an auto save...

I second Mount and Blade (also Mount and Blade: Warband). There's a ton of quality mods out there for it, including the Diplomacy mod which adds a lot more rp options to the vanilla game, and Prophesy of Pendor which is a total overhaul for more experienced players (has a new map, factions...

that sounds about right, I've been trying to come up with a personality to match his skills, but the only thing he can really do is intimidate things and not falling over when he tries to jump onto a table, and given his relatively high INT I would have gathered he'd know all sorts of ingesting...

thanks for your advice, would taking a few levels in ranger be advisable? I could use the two weapon fighting bonus feat to start bashing things with my shield.

inb4 portal, has anyone else played it?... oh wait, I believe a lot of other people enjoyed that as well... but seriously, I loved portal, laughed my ass off the whole way through.

new trailer released, commence whining and bleating about how PJ is ruining the story, and I'm sitting here going "that looks awesome as hell, I'm a wanna piece of that"

My girlfriend plays video games for about 3-4 hours a day, mostly games on her cellphone; angry birds, draw something 4 pics 1 word etc, 'casual' games most of the time. though she does have a tendency to watch me play single player PC games for hours at a time.
