I know, I'm ashamed of me too. It's fucking rad. It isn't that I had some aversion to it, I just never got around to picking it up.

But honestly, to me it's like knowing a band or movie is good but not getting into it right away. It's nice to have a couple untapped entertainment resources in the back pocket for a rainy day.

*Edit: Thanks to all the well wishers! Also, everyone has been giving great pointers without giving too much away. I appreciate that.

I’m jealous. The first play through of Skyrim is a great experience. The 10th? Meh.

Steam says I have 200 hours logged. I haven't actually "played" the game yet, just need a couple more mods, and patches for those mods.

I have about 6000 hours between God knows how many characters. Have fun! Explore tons of different play styles!

Ha! I'm the same way. Picked up Skyrim and GTA V long after it was "fashionable". I've been eyeing Fallout 4 lately.

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Fallout 3 is a lot better. They packed too much into the 4th one and ruined it.

Once you have played it entirely you should look at the modding community. Looking at the Nexus will enhance the game 10 fold

Beware of the dark side of the community though... Some fucked up mods out there

Don’t do that, just play it vanilla the first few times. THEN you can mod it to buggery.

Then fix it, and mod it some more!

Keep modding it even after it breaks down. If you need suggestions you can look up MxR’s mods on YouTube, they’re funny to watch as well

I did vanilla for my first 300 hours because I was on 360. Then when I got it on pc I put ALL the mods I could
