Haha, that's quite a cool message actually. What a mardy git not replying. Why don't I get any messages like that about ants/dragonflies?

I get creepy-ass messages like that on PSN from time to time. They see the "Alexander Ashford" and just assume I like Resident Evil.

That could be my real name. I've checked Facebook; there are some Alexander Ashfords out there.

Oh, weird people...I haven't got any odd friend requests or random messages lately.

[Scream]

Actually I'm also drinking smirnoff.. with 7up.. and playing Skyrim, awesome..

Omg, are you reading my mind? XD I'm drinking Smirnoff, with Schweppes, playing Skyrim. I'M PRETTY SURE I JUST HEARD SAUL TIGH'S VOICE AT THE START?

Cheers Scream!



(P.S Yeah, I did just post a photo that ISN'T X Files!)

[Scream]

Haha, yeah I'm a big fan of Saul Tigh - that scene at the start of the series where he is counting off the number of drinks left is awesome. Not sure if he is in Skyrim but he was the doc in New Vegas of course..

I'm pwning up Skyrim still.. here's my ugly crappy dark elf getting his ass kicked again. Even with the hand of saruman marked on his face you can see he is a coward..



Here he is dead - the feeble man-child.



Oh no - he is back again, and still a miserable git.

[Alexia_Ashford]

Saul Tigh is great, I heard his voice literally right at the very beginning just after creating/naming your character. His voice is so recognizable, love it. He was Captain Bailey in Mass Effect 2 as well. The character of Saul Tigh is very like Mr. Spencer's Commander Shepard, Frank. I was telling him to read up on Tigh the other day, thought he'd like him. I love his speech in Season 3 to Roslin: "Keep your pretty dreams and morals for when you're sitting in that comfy chair on Colonial One, meanwhile I've got a war to fight".

Why's your character so ugly? XD I've done a blonde Nord woman with eyeliner and browny eyeshadow, hair tied back, light eyes. I was tempted to give her all black eyes but I thought nah, play it safe this time. Your Dark Elf seems very "=( Feels bad man".

[Scream]

Yeah I usually go for the nord/paladin type character. Dunno why I went for this sucker but the adventures are interesting.. I just encountered a giant and my companion got knocked out cold in one hit so my guy just ran away lol, my companion seems OK ten minutes later though.. trying to find some greybeard dudes for a quest now..

[Alexia_Ashford]

Is it just me or does Ralof sound like Ezio Auditore?

[Scream]

He's long gone on my game so no idea Some of the characters sound like MGS voice actors though. Especially "the black door" almost sounds like grey fox. I think I'll do some exploring before anymore main quests.. need to save up 5K for a house.. also got some side quests from a book, think the game is hinting for me to read it.. *sigh* will need another drink for that one

[Alexia_Ashford]

Where can you buy houses? I've just gotten to the first village and am doing my first side quest at the mo, still quite early on. =p

They'll send you away up north from Helgen to see some Jarl bloke for help.. after doing the quests he and faringor have you'll get the option to buy a house from one of the guys in the palace. You'll need to get through a dungeon first so probably an hour or two way.. dungeons are pretty good though they have puzzles and stuff.

[Alexia_Ashford]

Awesome, I'll check it out. A bit annoying, I've caught a disease from a Skeever. I imagine I can get rid of it by going to a chapel. My character is a blonde, blue eyed Nord woman who is a dual-wielding hardcore warrior. Curious, how did you get those shots zoomed right in to your character?

[Scream]

I pressed F to change the perspective and rotated the camera then the usual capture screenshot stuff..

Yeah not sure what those diseases are/what they do, apparently I've got like 3 different diseases and people keep saying I'm really sick lol. That elf is a nasty piece of work..

[Alexia_Ashford]

Do you know if you can have sex with people in this game?

Edit: Photo of my character, dual-wielding warrior Nord blonde woman, Daenerys Dragonborn!

[Scream]

Yup looking good - hmm don't think you can do that in-game There are bards you can pay to sing songs though if that helps.. I just got owned by some mammoths, don't try to do what Legolas does in LOTR, you'll pay a heavy price

Anyways, gonna call it a night, just finished a dungeon where some crazy guy called Slid tried to capture me in a cage - I got a level up too.. its looking good for tomorrow, my character is a beast in fire destructive magic..

[Scream]

Actually I found out you can marry in this game...

Anyways, my second follower Benor just bit the bullet. Or arrow or whatever



The scene of the crime, he went out fighting damn it (I already stripped him for his dwarven armor unfortunately)

I first met him in Morthol, and he joined me after I beat him in a brawl (amazing since he is a built up nord and I'm a skinny dark elf who practices magic and archery) he was a pretty crap tank and probably wanted me to purchase more restoration spells but being a destructive fire mage I said nah. I found I was constantly reloading to save his ass (I felt like that guy in LOST saving Charlie all the time), this time I decided to let him die and move on.. Goodbye Benor!



Did see a group of khajit moving into the fort as I was paying my respects and saying "whoever did this is gonna pay!" but they didn't seem to aggro or anything.. Weird..

Here's my dark elf looking increasingly bad ass. I think I might go and see if that wizard from Dawnstar is available to be my new hunting partner with Benor out of the picture!
