A little disappointed

Post » Tue Dec 13, 2011 8:10 pm

Hi guys!

Well i bought skyrim about a week ago, i couldnt wait to play as ive played III and IV so expected a lot from V.
I am however a little disappointed.
Why?
....because within the first hour of play my game glitched twice and crashed a few times!
Ive also had the fallen through floor problem once.
But....my biggest problem is that my follower, a lady ..(sorry i cant remember her name), disappeared during a dungeon and i havent been able to find her since. I didnt ask her to wait anywhere either!. Usually if you fall of a mountain she comes and finds you but not this time! ive warped to a town hoping that she would follow but no. Ive been back through the dungeon looking for her but she isnt there! typical i loose my companion, my extra carry weight and all my magic weapons that she was carrying! I cant remember which city i picked her up in, i thought i did but shes not there or ive got it wrong. I know i can get other followers in the game but havent yet tried to see if i can use them. Anyone shed any light on this problem?
Apart from that the game and story line is lovely and im enjoying it loads. Im not a big fan of many games but the elder scrolls and fall out are just perfect.

I loved the gameplay. The combat is great for wandering and clearing dungeons and what not, and the graphics satisfy my tastes, but the story felt extremely unsatisfying to me. far too short.

Bug/glitchwise, I had the falling through floor problem once throughout my 70 hours of play time, but I've never lost a follower. I've also had a couple broken quests, and I've had the whole 'dragons flying backwards' problem a few times since the last patch. Other than that, sometimes my shouts don't work. oh, and one more thing, the gap between adept difficulty, and expert difficulty is sometimes extremely irritating. I go from easily killing enemies on adept with hardly any damage, to getting almost IMMEDIATELY killed by the exact same enemy on expert.

I know that a follower is supposed to return to where you found them after some time, for instance if you told them to wait and then never picked them up again.

I dont know if that happens when a follower glitches and for instance falls through the floor.

What also may have happened is that you killed her. When a follower is on low health they will crouch and be ignored by the enemy. They can still die then however, for instance by one of your aoa destruction spells.

so i should be able to find her and take her equipment off her if that happened. I know where i last saw her. In the cave on the island, where you fall down the hole in the cave floor. Maybe she died as i was fighting the boss at the end of that level? i did do back through looking for her but couldnt find her. Ill try going back and searching the big room. sorry i cant remember her name properly.
Any one else have any issues please add them to this post.
Thanks guys.
