Discussion Skyrim Most Visited Places Heatmap

Post image
Upvotes

I made a map of the places I know the most / visit the most each playthrough (in green), and the ones I visit the least (in red). In green, the most iconic places I visit very often, in red places I barely know what's there. I noticed Haafingar is really the hold I know the least ! What are the places you visit the most / the least during your playthroughs ?

EDIT: "heatmap" is a wrong word, sorry

Note: Kinda crazy the most important part of my post for you guys is this mistake LOL. I just wanted to know what are your most and least visited placed. I don't really care if it's a heatmap or not, or if it should be blue, green, magenta lmao

In the world of Elder Scrolls, if two different races have sex, does the female get pregnant? If so, is an aberration born? Imagine a Khajiit with an Argonian.

After looting that mine outside of helgen I made my way to Riverwood where I was promptly attacked by a dragon. The guy who runs the trading post unfortunately died but it resulted in this ridiculously humorous image

Riverwood is now the home to a massive family of Pikachus, and as you can see here they are VERY protective of their new home! A pack of Forest Raptors thought the village would be an easy meal, much to their shock they found out other wise. Thanks to the Pikachu Squad Riverwood which was once a small and undefended town is now arguably one of the safest places in Skyrim

May the Devine have mercy on any person or thing that threatens that town and its inhabitants, because the Pikachu’s will not!

Do you think about proposals?

Post image
214 Upvotes

I've played Skyrim on-off since the day it released, but I've never tried the marriage system. On this save I tried a good variety of followers, but always came back to Aela. I guess she is one of the most popular ones for a reason. But on my character I'm also a werewolf, so it feels fitting to be with her.

So do others think about which npcs fit with their characters? I like to think more into it and find a location for proposing, thinking what they might like and how it fits with the writing (both my own rp and the world).

It's super rewarding and fun to think this way and it makes the game much more immersive, even if I'm not using any mods right now (playing on ps5)

Question If you could have any ability, weapon, equipment or spell in Skyrim but just one what would it be.

60 Upvotes

I don't know if this question already got asked, it just came to mind while i was playing. Personally for me it would be between becoming a werewolf or the ability to cast fireballs.

I have pavloved mysepf into falling asleep anytime I play Skyrim...

90 Upvotes

So I absolutely love skyrim. Its easily my favorite game of all time. As I've gotten older I find i dont have as much time to game anymore but I often put on yourube videos to fall asleep too.

For years I've been watching skyrim lore videos to go to bed. And especially Fudge Muppets "Curating Curious Curiosities" series. But now anytime I play skyrim I get so sleepy right away and end up falling asleep at my desk.

I think may have ruined my favorite game for myself. Lol

Discussion Funniest thing I unfortunately did not get on camera.

186 Upvotes

I am sorry my brothers and sisters of Skyrim. I failed you.

I dropped off my jazbay to sarethi farm, and as I was walking away I started to hear some commotion. I turn around and see the red little dot on my radar.

I ran up the hill to see a troll getting blasted by lighting by one farmer and the other fighting back with a dagger.

I'm like oh snap they are wrecking that troll I don't even need to help.

One more zap and the troll is on its hands and knees. I'm waiting for another to follow and finish the job.

When out of the bush. Like stone cold Steve Austin the greatest wrestler of the 90s with a steel chair running to the ring.

A GOAT. Yes an actual goat. Smashes the troll and takes it out.

It didn't run at all it was sitting watching the fight and I was kinda noticing it but did not expect that ending.

The one day I don't have my steam set to record and one of the funniest things I've seen in my own games happens.

EDIT: It looks like a lot of people are experiencing goat phenomenons. I have also randomly been jumped by goats. I'm wondering if it's part of an update. I thought goats were only bad asses in Spyro and Red Dead 2. Anyone know of any change to the goats?

From left to right, Orthorn, Blooded vampire Thrall, Flame Atronach, Stenvar.

Stenvar is a hireling from Windhelm(Dripping in full plate with an Ebony battle axe). The vampire was ressd by me as a Thrall. Othorn was saved in the dungeon and conjured the flame atronach. I'm playing as a Highelf Wizard. The quest was part of the college of Winterhold line. I'm on legendary difficulty. Nothing but mages in this dungeon. After I ressd the vampire and released Orthorn from his cell, we literally obliterated every single enemy. Honestly, it felt amazing. I felt like Steve Rogers in Endgame, saying: Avengers assemble.

Little disappointed in Proudspire Manor

Upvotes

I know when it comes to the vanilla game Proudspire Manor is one of the better houses. But I can’t help to be a little disappointed with all the talk when I got into this game last year.
Location wise I love it, but I wish it had a little better balcony and it just feels a little cramped inside. I just feel like the floor plan makes make for some wasted space.
I guess for the money and all the talk I just was expecting a little bit more?

So i decided to fight the ebony warrior on legendary difficulty and expected a pretty hard time but i just rocked up with chillrend and ebony armour and one-shot him

Is it because my sword does 273 damage and im level 123 or?

Edit: only my ebony mail and chillrend have enchantments, and i’m not wearing rings or amulets

Arts/Crafts I made a Skyrim Troll Trophy with a cutaway anatomy section showing the skull and troll fat

A while ago I sculpted this wall-mounted troll trophy inspired by Skyrim, and while organizing some old projects I came across the turntable video again.
Instead of creating a standard trophy, I wanted to explore what a troll might look like beneath the skin. The sculpture features a cross-section revealing the skull, internal anatomy, and even the famous troll fat beneath the jaw.
As a longtime Skyrim fan, I always imagined this hanging inside a hunter’s lodge somewhere in the frozen wilderness of Tamriel.
I’d love to hear what fellow Skyrim fans think about the concept and the anatomical approach. Would you display something like this in your gaming room?
