Things you've never done?

Post » Sun Apr 07, 2013 9:02 am

EDIT: Thanks to our esteemed moderators for fixing the title :D

So, what things there are in Skyrim that you have never willingly done? Places you've never been to, quests you've never done, items you've never worn?

List yours, I list mine.

My list:

- I have never went to the bottom of the snowy passage in Bleak Falls Barrow. There used to be a Frost Troll there so I'm still paranoid about the place. I just kill the draugr and sprint over the bridge. No idea what's down there.
- I have never used Dwemer equipment in combat.
- I have never completed Peryite's quest despite getting it almost every playthrough. No idea what it's about. Never done Boethiah's quest as well.
- Never completed the Thieves Guild.
- I have never been jailed in Skyrim. In fact I've been jailed only once in all my Elder Scrolls time, which was once in Oblivion to see what it's like.
- I have never done the Blades' bidding in you-know-what.
- Not once I have proceeded alone once I'm out of Helgen. Every time I've went with Hadvar or Ralof to Riverwood. And every time I listen to the same conversations over and over again.
- I have never been a vampire beyond being infected which I always cure soon after.
- I have never betrayed Erandur for the staff, not even tried it.
- I have never been to any Orc strongholds besides the one with the ebony mine.
- I have never played as Argonian, Khajiit, Bosmer, Dunmer, Orc or Breton.
- Never been to Yngol Barrow. I don't know where it is, I don't know what's so special about it. I have the claw but never used it.
- I have never done Eola's quest despite many times wanting to. I always just cut her throat the moment I see her.

I've never killed Paarthurnax.

I've never sided with Madanach in the Cidhna Mine quest.

I've never not worn armor.

Since I discover some previously unknown location on just about every character, I'm sure there must be at least one I've never found. But I don't know what it is to say I've never been there because I've never been there yet. :tongue: I did go through numerous characters and play for more than a year before I ever found Forelhost, though. I knew it existed but didn't know where it was and hadn't been through it.

There are a few things I haven't done in Hearthfire. That's about it. 348 hours on one character, you tend to get just about everything done. Along with 10+ other characters. Granted only 4 of them have an extended play time. A thief, a battlemage, a dragon priest, and my current ranger character.

Well, if we're counting DLCs - I haven't yet played with any of them enabled because I downloaded them and then got sidetracked by Real Life before I could try them out. So that means there are TONS of things I haven't done yet.

Have never played as a Khajit or a thief/assasin. Or an Argonian.

Probably most of the quests in Markarth. I've spent very little time there, on any character.

I've never really gone into random peoples houses in the cities. On a thief character I would break into shops and rich peoples homes but that was about it. I was in Uthgerd's house for the first time on my current character, despite probably having spent a hundred hours in Whiterun by this stage across all my characters combined (on both this psn account and my previous one).

Gotten all those jewels for the TG quest for the crown.

I once saw a video where in a Dwemer ruin, there's a room with an odd light that emerges from a structure in the middle of the room. I closed the video before I saw where it is. I now RP that my PC had a vision of finding it. It's now my Skyrim quest to find it. Don't tell me where it is. I will now leave this thread forever lest there be spoilers.

I never do the dark brotherhood quest line or the civil war. Never got the last word of time slow, and never been to yngol barrow.

I've done all the quests in Markarth but absolutely hate the place, always seem to get lost there. Is that why you avoid it?

I just don't really like the "cities" in Skyrim. Whiterun is the only walled (separate cell) one I somewhat like and mostly spend time there just for crafting stuff and Companions. I'd love if it the various civil war camps and occupied forts had radiant quests and things to do, if they did I'd spend lots of time at them - more so than I would in any of the cities.

If I am correct in the assumption of what you're talking about, that dungeon was amazing.

Assuming it's Kagrenzel.

I've never played a pure caster to higher levels, in any TES game actually.

thieves Guild maybe the way to go, it's not really in Riftin city but more under it and also has its own secret entrance. Plenty of quests as well as endless radiant ones if you want to restore the TG. A friendly bunch of rogues that always make you welcome and good attire and loot to be had too. I'm probably not telling you anything that you dont already know though. LOL
