    I still play FF VII, VIII & IX - As well as XIII - For this day and age the graphics are atrocious, I play it because it has soul... Music that works, a story that actually makes you feel something. As good as the Elder Scrolls is, that is one thing I find it always lacks, a truly involving story... Morrowind was alright and Skyrim is admittedly proving a lot better than Oblivion but I can't comment until I've finished in it's entirety. FF definitely tells a story better than Elder Scrolls does, but then that's not what they're aiming for - You can't get a decent story and freedom to do what you want. They're two very different games and I LOVE them both <3

    I still haven't seen an Elder Dragon and I know you can get a dragon summon, but I haven't got that yet either ;(
    I must press on!

    So today in Skyrim I was walking around when I heard a dragon. Excited, I pulled my hands out, ready to kill the dragon. After 5 minutes of throwing fireballs at it. It refused to fight me. So I repositioned my. He stopped making noise. "That's strange" I thought. I looked around to find him. I looked up and the darn dragon dived straight down, pulled up at the last second. Probably laughing as he flew away.

    Stupid Dragon.

    Well, I completed it, after many distractions (side quests and what not)!
    It was epic. Just epic.
    And I love the feeling that I still have so much more to do! :omg:

    I will go for 100% Completion!

    Wish me luck! :derpe:

    Toughest part would probably be the collect all 15 artifacts. (Since some are misable and I would have to go through another play through.)

    Also getting to level 50.

    I like how bandits don't become glass armor wearing god-like ones when you reach higher levels.

    I also like decapitation.

    And how half the world population plays Skyrim.

    I got a new idea. If you have skyrim and would like to join in feel free.

    The plan- Walk from Marketh to Riften. No fast travel. Just to see what shenanigans I can get into.

    I shall post results for maybe every 2 hours of gameplay.

    Nah, all I really need to worry about are the Artifacts, and the potentially possible to miss trophy.

    We should have a race. :derpe: Running from those two towns. Winner gets nothing, besides maybe a random Dragon encounter.

    Anyways I got 100 Sneak! [size=-2](Yay Rubberbanding.)[/size]
    Time to get 100 Smithing, just need more gold... :DFH:

    You could use a 2 TB hard drive. I'd do it when I get my new computer.

    Maybe.

    I've rented it, pretty fun, made it to level 16 the 2 days i had it, managed to kill 3 dragons so far, and even chopped some wood :derpe:

    The top highlight of those two days would have to be when I was merely chopping wood, then a surprise dragon outta freakin nowhere comes and starts a fight :grin:
