Skyrim way too easy?

Post » Thu Dec 08, 2011 5:57 am

So yeah...i think Skyrim is way too easy.I beat the game 2 times(main quests/thief-guild/college/companions), the first time was on normal difficulty and the second time on master.Both characters are 40+ and it was too easy even tho master should be "really hard".Then about the armors, for example Daedric armor, it is too EASY to get this set even tho it is the "best" gear in the game.I only needed to kill 5-6 Dremoras for the hearts and do some dungeon for the ebony ingots, thats it not even 1 hour gameplay for the best items in the game.

I expected more grinding in the game, of course for some peoples grinding svcks hard but i want to be proud having the best items in the game and skyrim dont give me that feeling.

So what are your thoughts ? Do you like the current Skyrim?

All this complaining about too hard/easy is nonsense. I haven't touched the difficulty because I don't care, I'm not playing the game to try and get my ass handed to me or to blow things up with one shot, I just want to enjoy myself... chase butterflies, ride rivers, pick flowers and punch bears.

Elder Scrolls have never been hard games and never will be. Also you crafted the best armors in the game to make it even more easy.. This is clearly wrong game for you mate.

Difficulty is fine for me. :) I die sometimes, but not enough that I'm constantly frustrated (Dark Souls would not be the game for me I know!). I haven't looked at the difficulty I'm on, so I'm guessing it's at the default "normal" or whatever.

The difficulty feels just about right for me so far in the game with a level 12 character.

I'm level 20ish on my mage and it feels fine to me. I keep hearing my destruction magic becomes underpowered and lacks any variety whatsoever at high level though. :confused:

3.1/2 days so far and still 1st level. Did you know, that if you walk around at night, you can catch insects.

I intend to start an insect collection once I've bought my house.

Well what i meant is, there should be dungeon which req. lv 40+ and good equipment for some challenges after you did almost all the quest in the game.Currently there are few reasons to craft Daedric armors.You are doing fine with low level items to do all the quests.

Maybe they add some dungeons in some dlcs.That would be epic.

So what are your thoughts ? Do you like the current Skyrim?


1. Have you ever played any other TES game? Morrowind - Steal great armor first 10 minutes into game. Oblivion - Reach level 21 in one day and then wait for 3 days and raid a bandit lair.

2. Stop min/maxing and roleplay a little. Obviously any fighter, mage, or thief will want to be good at what they do and use the best equipment but they wont always know little tricks that you know. Make rules for yourself, such as dead is dead or no fast travel or no reloading when you get caught stealing. Enjoy the game for what it is, not for the MMO you want it to be.

Do you really play Skyrim to "beat" it?

Oh wow, you're lost.

Sure. You play the game the way you have, it's going to be too easy. You've no right to complain. But then, you're not really complaining. You're bragging. Come back in 10 years when you grow up and play it again.

This is precisely why nerfs need to happen. People are breaking the game without even trying, and then complain that the game is too easy. Nerf enchanting, nerf smithing, nerf alchemy, and nerf sneak.

It is massively varied, one minute I'm wiping out a bandit cave with easy and the next minute I'm fighting for my life against a deathlord or an elder dragon. I like the difficulty, I actually feel like I'm gaining in power unlike Oblivion.

I don't get why everything has to be so hardcoe all the time. I like a challenge, but I also like feeling like a GOD! I'm happy that depending on my mood, I can change the difficulty on the fly.

it is too EASY to get this set even tho it is the "best" gear in the game.I only needed to kill 5-6 Dremoras for the hearts and do some dungeon for the ebony ingots, thats it not even 1 hour gameplay for the best items in the game.


If you're saying you can get a full set of Daedric armor one hour into the game you are lying. Hell, the intro sequence takes about 15-20 minutes (give or take) and you start out at level 1. The only way you could get a full set of Daedric armor at level 1 is if you knew exactly where the pieces were and were able to fast travel to all locations. Even then you'd better hope your level 1 character can beat the bosses of each location anyways.

Skyrim is TOO EASY if u using overpowered specs like enchanting,smiting, 1 handed and block.

If you start playing mage on master difficulty and not going to use kiting, Skyrim wont be easy.

Smithing is fine. It is the ability to use alchemy and enchanting to over power your items that needs nerfed. It is too much and makes it all to easy. But then again, you don't have to use those tools. It is a choice.

The game can get easy if your single characters does all the guild quests. Why an Arch Mage would suddenly join the Thieves guild is slightly confusing to me; yes you can do it but why? I find that if you stick to role playing and do the main quest plus the guild that best suits your PC then it all makes sense and the difficulty remains consistent. Also, those who make Pokémon builds are making a rod for their own back. If you min/max this game then it will be easy on any difficulty. This is why I have never min/maxed RPGs.

PC games never been hard and never will be. Especially MMO games like WoW

MMO games like Darkfall?
Games like Starcraft 1&2, CS, CoD4, Quake, Dwarf Fortress, etc etc?

If they're easy, go ahead and play Starcraft competitively. Should be easy for someone as gifted as you to win millions.

If Skyrim will have multiplayer and 12 millions players, u will find that some players willl be better then others.

I play on expert, I wear fur armor (until I get forsworn armor) I use an iron axe and a hunting bow... difficulty is perfect for me. I do not want any other weapons or amor even though they all look great.
