i discovered the game had commands and ruined the experience for myself

i was young and stupid

Ask Talos for forgiveness.

i shall

I was carrying Molag Bal's mace from after that mission where you're in a haunted house in markarth and I was wandering outside of Hjalmarch with it and like 3 Vigilants of Stendarr came up to me and were all like "Oi, ya muppet, give us the mace like." and I was all like "Nawww get tae ya pure reprobates, that mace is mine." and they attacked me so I used the Fus Roh Dah shout and they all went flying.

I love Skyrim.

it is an amazing game
i stumbled across the necromancy stone within a short amount of time of first playing the game and immediately started abusing it.

It is fr.
I found out recently lore wise that when you soul trap someone they spend the rest of eternity in the soul cairn being tormented by the ideal masters so now I collect soul gems and go out of my way to find Thalmor patrols/forts and soul trap them all.
I even threw in Nazeem because c'mon who tf likes Nazeem?

i LOVE that idea

imma do that to anybody who pisses me off once i re-buy the game (i lost access to it, havent been able to play it for a year or so)

My advice, get the Steam Special Edition and get essential mods like The Unofficial Skyrim patch off of Nexus. I'd recommend Realistic water two and obsidian weathers to make the visuals honestly beautiful.

I've been playing this game for 13 years and I swear to the Gods it's literally the only game I've ever played that I **never** get tired of. The modding community are the best in the world and keep the experience alive like no other.

personally i do love the game but it doesnt have the same replayability just because i prefer having other players, so it gets boring eventually. and nobody else i know plays

Everybody's different. I'm not the biggest fan of multiplier games myself but I do like the Call Of Duty games and Escape From Tarkov. I've tried a few mmorpgs and indie multiplayer games and enjoyed it.
You'd be much more knowledgeable that me at that.
