Well, I was having trouble when I was using early magic and just wandering, but when I started to fuck shit up with higher level destruction and started using one handed weapons, I suddenly loved that game forever.

Sounds like you just aren't cut out for this type of game.

As others said, join something. The Civil War is fun, the Dark Brotherhood has an entertaining storyline and the Daedra quests are cool.

And if all else fails, Roleplay! Give your character a back-story and motivation Do some inner monologue. This has given me joy many, many times.

Good luck!

The CO19s will be round shortly, it doesn't really matter if you struggle or not.

Don't worry about it, you're not the only one who struggles to get into these sorts of games. Dragon Age and Oblivion took me months, and I never finished Fallout New Vegas. Just let your own will come to it without the unrealistic expectations of the internet, you'll know when you've settled into your groove the moment you realise you've been playing for ten hours straight, and still decide you want to finish your quest. There's no point in forcing yourself into a game, otherwise you just won't appreciate it all that it's due.

*Shows up with MI-5*. Aww geese what, false alarm. Alright everyone. Go home, false alarm.

Well heres what you need to do. Set a goal. Say kill 100 Bandits. Or do 10 random quests. If you need some sort of line to follow. Lay the line yourself.

Actually, I just want some help.

See I've been playing Skyrim on and off since it came out, and I just can't get into it. Every time I try, I'm reminded why I like games with a compelling linear story and characters to keep me in, because I can appreciate how good Skyrim is, there's just...nothing keeping me playing. No main plot, no likeable or even interesting characters encountered so far, nothing. I had this problem with Fallout 3 and New Vegas to a lesser extent, and I managed to get into the latter for a good long while when I finally made a character I liked.

So, what advice would you give to someone who can't get into Skyrim? Any good storylines I should seek out, fun character builds to try? Or should I just wait and leave off it until I've got a character in mind I want to play?
What about the main story didn't you find compelling? You can log quite a few hours just by following the main/faction questlines IIRC :)
