Just caught a few butterflies and stuff..... Yeah i even had fun collecting them

I just finished catching a bunch of bees. After I harvested all the flowers they were buzzing around of course.

The butterflies are like a minigame, you have to wait for them to get low enough or stop flitting around to click on them.

I think I might eat them now.

BTW did anyone do the

Spoiler

Golden Claw

quest?

Spoiler

It was a better Indiana Jones experience than the last Indy movie. Fantastic traps, zombies, light puzzles and even some Raiders of the Lost Ark type tomb music. Really phenomenal

The best thing about that quest for me, was later when another person was all set to send me on another quest to that same place to get something else, and I was like "Oh, you mean this old thing right here in my bag", He was like, "O.K. you're good"

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

I have accumulated a lot of potions and poisons. How do I apply the poison to a weapon? Do I just "use" it from inventory and it will ask me which weapon to apply it to?

This is exactly how it went down for me.

So I guess we can't pick things up anymore? oblivion it was LB on 360. Not a huge deal, but it will lower making your own comedy if you want.


Also, many reviews praise the favorites tab, but to me it is a bit of a step back. In oblivion you could hot key 8 items. I would do 3 swords, bow, 2 magics(one healing one hurting) torch and repair hammer. Now I can 'hot key' only 2 items. The menu's look better, but don't function as well imo.

having said those two games, it's still so effing good of an experience...going to go play more. But if someone figures out how to pick up stuff please holla!

Makes me want to go out and slay a hundred dragons.

You can Hot Key up to 8 items (PC version)
And yes you can pick up items. You have to hold the Activate/Use button. For PC it's the E key. Hold the button and not clicking it, picks items up to move around. Tap button to drop it..

Someone with 360 version can check and see if it works on consoles.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

1 more thing for PC users. The SkyrimPrefs file in the steam folder (program Files/Steam/Steamapps/common/skyrim/skyrim) has a line that sets auto saving to 15 minutes. Now I know it autosaves also after fast travel etc.. but since I don't fast travel a lot I changed the autosave from every 15 minutes to every 10 minutes.

Re: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Think I've played for about 5 or 6 hours today. I knew this game was going to be be fun, but didn't expect this much fun. Only done maybe 3 or 4 quest part of the main story, and done numerous side quest.

Think I will probably put in a couple more hours before I go to bed.
