Your Skyrim dreams

Post » Sun Dec 26, 2010 7:45 pm

When Oblivion was in the making I started having lots of Oblivion related dreams, ranging from awesome to plain silly. They were always about me getting the game, playing it for the first time and my reaction to it, and it was always different for each dream. When I finally really got Oblivion, the dreams stopped and never returned.

However... since Skyrim's announcement I started having the same kind of dreams again, only about TESV this time. I've had about 5 so far but I only remember the last 2.

Have you had any dreams about Skyrim so far? If yes, tell me about them, how awesome/silly/stupid/funny they were! :P

I'll start with explaining mine:

1: the game started in this small snowy valley, I was alone. The sea was behind me with the remnants of a ship and there was only one path that I could follow. I noticed that there was a red line on the ground going in a large circle around me, and for some reason I knew that everything outside that red line wasn't yet developed by Bethesda - so basically the version of Skyrim that I was playing was an unfinished beta version. I didn't like it, so I got the brilliant idea to merge the files of Skyrim with the files of Oblivion and make it complete that way. How I did it I don't know, but I did. :P
The end result was.... weird. The game instantly toned down to Oblivion's graphics and when I followed the path out of the valley I came into this Nord village... the houses were unfinished and all the Nords looked the same: big and with beards, even the women.
And when I talked to them they all only had 2 topics I could choose from, namely "the latest rumors" and "mudcrabs". They couldn't talk though because I had no access to Skyrim's voice files because I didn't know who the voice actors were. That's all I remember from this dream.

2: Again, there was a sea with the remnants of a ship, and I was in the water trying not to drown. I remember thinking that the water looked superb and that I had to bake Bethesda cookies for this (don't ask me why) and then I noticed I was suddenly under water - apparently a new feature was that when you stopped swimming you actually sank deeper and deeper and could drown. I started swimming again and made it to shore, crawling onto it. I looked down and noticed that I could see my legs, which excited me beyond belief because that was a feature I had wanted to see for years and Bethesda had finally implemented it. There was fire behind the hills in front of me and I heard people screaming. I figured that they were Nords coming to rescue me while fighting off dragons. I was still on the ground when I heard a voice say "Get up." in a deep voice that sounded suspeciously like Morrowind Dunmer, fueling my excitement even more and I figured that this was Esbern. I was about to look up to see if I was right... and then I woke up, or rather was woken up by the sudden barking of one of my chinchillas. :facepalm: :banghead:

So, what about you guys? I can't be the only one dreaming about Skyrim, right?

I dreamed the quest that is described in the Game Informer issue. Was a good quest. But for some reason, when they encountered a "giant", it was a giant rolling thing filled with people on balconies. And the dragon vanished once you reentered the cell. And there were companions, several of whom were killed by the dragon.

I once dreamed that I was standing on a vast stone paved plaza that stood between a gothic looking cathedral, and docks, both of which were made of the same stone as the pavement. And I was looking out at the setting sun on the sea... It was fantastic, and I remember that it was the docks of Solitude. Unfortunately I can't remember anything else of the dream...

Edit: I had this dream about 2 years ago.

Nothing so far.

I had one dream about Morrowind. Well, kinda. The local population of where I live in RL were blaming me for an infestation of Cliffracers, and made me go in the mountains to get rid of them. A sort of pre-St Jiub, I am, in a completely "I failed" way. :P Didn't actually see one, woke up as I heard the familiar cry overhead.

I have dreams that Im trying to buy the game and they dont have it. Or I dont have any money.
Or the game is gone when I get home. Or my xbox is broken.

I think it means I really want to play Skyrim.

:lol:

Havent had any dreams about Skyrim, I had a dream about Morrowind once though. I punched Vivec in the head but I cant remember why. Mostly I just remember hanging out in Balmora like I usually did when playing the game.

I actually had a dream about Skyrim too. Sadly it was pretty much like Oblivion regarding the graphics. It was like gothic 3 with oblivion graphics to be more precise. I started the game in a half empty village and I already had horse at the very beginning. I remember thinking - man, this is exactly like that Skyrim Improved mod! Well the fun did not last long and it was one of those delirious dreams that you wan to wake up from anyway.

I haven't yet had any dreams about Skyrim, but when the hype of FO3 was in its climix, I had this dream where I was killing Guards, running up the hill, with my gauss gun... They all repeated:'' STOP CRIMINAL SCUM, STOP CRIMINAL SCUM, STOP CRIMINAL SCUM.'' I have to include, it sure was some epic dream.

I'd imagine seeing another like that closer to the release.

Recently I had a very wreid dream about Skyrim...
I was in some big nordic town, visiting a good friend of mine.
But as soon as I arrived at her house, she was kidnapped by some thugs. A local thief from the thiefes guild told me, that they were holding her hostage in some creepy underground basemant or sever unterneath a theater.
With a special spell I was able to predict how to get access to this dungeon and soon as I stepped in, I began roastin' these nasty bandits by dual wielding fire and shock spells.
EDIT: I believe I had an companion, too... some dunmer dude with a warhammer... but i can't really remember.

Pretty much sounds like Skyrim, if you ask me... .

Oh my god, keep 'm coming guys! :laugh: The ones from LostInSpace and McKampela especially made me laugh.

I always write down the dreams that I like and I found a written description of one of my old Oblivion dreams, went like this:

I had gotten the game and played a thief character. I was in some sort of cave (back then I figured that this was the cave/ruins from the tutorial). I had to fight a ton of zombies and ghosts to get through. I took all their weapons after defeating them and found the exit, ending up in a forest close to a city. I went to the city wanting to try out my mad thief skillz so I stole a horse and rode it into a toy store. There I waited until nightfall while the horse stood in a corner staring at the wall, and the shop owner apparently didn't care one bit. After nightfall he went to bed and I started raiding the store: there were lots of Jurassic Park figurines so I took them all. I escaped the store on my horse and rode away, ending up on this hill with a tree. And in this tree... hang a cola can with a picture of Vegeta (DBZ) on it. I was all "What the-?! I must make a screenshot and show it on the forums!" But when I pressed print screen the game told me that I couldn't make screenshots, so I exited the game to modify the ini.
But I couldn't find said ini. Going back into the game I tried again and this time it worked, and suddenly I got teleported back into the cave having to fight all those zombies and ghosts again, and the whole dream started over from beginning to end.

I am anxiously awaiting my next Skyrim dream though. :P

Maybe we can make this topic useful.
Dreaming in Skyrim? Now thats interesting. Not just text, but actually going through a randomly generated dream 1/20th of the time you sleep?
Awesome.
