i just made a new character a few days ago!
i made a nord female named Patience, modeled after Real Life me. darker blond, long-ish hair, light colored eyes. she has golden war paint on her right cheek, idk how to describe the design. The same one Kodlak from the companions has. one-handed dual wielder, light armor, some archery, maybe magic at some point but not currently. member of the imperial legion + companions so far, definitely more to come. even though she's a Nord, she disagrees strongly with the worship of tiber septum since he was a human originally, not a god. hates the thalmor.
i take on every quest i find and complete them based on their proximity to my location.

Just a bit. I've "finished" one character - an Altmer named Alarra (which is how I got my username that I use most other places) - completed all quests except the repeating ones, explored all locations as far as I'm aware. My second character, a Nord named Ganvar, I'm not very far into; I wanted to do the "opposite" side of quests with him, and pick up the last few achievements that I'm missing. Also, if you ever are stuck on a quest, remember: UESP wiki is best wiki. I discovered the Wikia first, then realized that UESP is much better. Now I'm an admin on its forum, co-run its FB page, and am one of the top 40 editors of all time on the wiki (the site's 21 years old).

Recently, I made a Breton character and named them after me. They're kind of a theif, pickpocketing, archery, one-handed weapons, sneak, and light armor being their strongest skills. They also use some alteration magic.

I have a male Khajit with dark brown fur and white striped markings. His name is Qa'enji and he is important and I love him he is my son. For him, I'm using an unarmed build. For any other race, it's stupidly underpowered but for a Khajit, you have a chance of finishing the Unbound quest with around 25 attack damage (it's the claws). All bar brawls will be yours for the taking, and you can spend more money and skill points on things like Heavy Armor and Smithing (I'm working to get Daedric Armor) because you don't need weapons. Add some enchanted rings and Gloves of the Puglist, and you're basically unstoppable. And the cinematic kills-priceless.

Don't forget that the Skyrim Special Editon comes out later this month (on the 28th)! Updated graphics, yay. If you play on PC, and have all the DLCs, you get it free (as a separate listing in your Steam library).
I've been having such an urge to play it lately, but am waiting until that's released.

Nice! That's the best way to get it. In case you aren't aware, they've got a digital card game (kind of like Hearthstone or Magic: the Gathering) now, called Elder Scrolls: Legends. It's currently in open beta (though they said they almost certainly won't do a progress wipe before launch) and it's free to play; the only cost is for card packs/arena tickets (both of which can be earned in-game.)

Is it limited time free or will it always be free? I'll probably play the original more due to some outsource mods I have.

It just permanently goes in your Steam library (though you have to have all the DLC purchased before the 28th in order to get it). The idea is that mods can already do what the Special Edition can, so not a lot of PC players are gonna want to pay $60 for something they can get for free. UPDATED GRAPHICS?! What'll it look like, real life?!??? Feast your eyes on the trailer:

It's essentially ruined my life.
Today, Ari valiantly fought her way through a pass filled with bandits, and then promptly slipped and fell off of the mountain. RIP.
(The Remastered trailer triggered my anxiety. Am I really going to spend $60+ for a game I already own? Absolutely.)

i take on every quest i find and complete them based on their proximity to my location. good luck. you'll soon give up after you realize that several quests have you travel back and forth across the entire map oh i don't do one quest at a time. i just do whatever section of whatever quests are near me. like, instead of doing the entire main quest i do a section when i get near it, otherwise i'm like rescuing the gray-mane dude or doing the imperial quest line (those two contradict a bit oopsies) or the companion one or the one in pelagius' mind.. or whatever i'm nearest to. things get completed as they get completed, i don't really care when that is. if i don't feel like doing quests i just ??? ride my horse around basically. discover things. i'm a terrible player (:

I can't wait to get my copy of the remastered (I legit will have three copies of this game lmao it's worth it though)!
I have 3 characters, my first one Kiara, she was a light brown-colored khajiit, she didn't get very far before she glitched out. She's a werewolf, but she somehow became a vampire and I can't fix it so I had to abandon her</3 she will always be my favorite. My next one was La'Kiahna-daro, she was a silver-gray colored khajiit, and was my first time paying the game with an understanding of the races in the game and tried to make her act a bit more like a stereotypical khajiit. I abandoned her because I messed up in the order I had planned to do things (but I still come back to her and fool around with the game every now and then). My current one, Zaynasi (I didn't realize that there was a khajiit in game called Zaynabi so I just pretend they're twins and go with that), is a black-and-white colored khajiit (if you haven't noticed, I love the khajiit race so much<3 by far my favorite), I finally 'beat' the game with her but I'm (was) determined to get her to level 80 (she's legit level 78), but then my game glitched and I can't complete one of my last quests so I raged quit the game and preordered the remaster :/

When I lived with my twin brother, he hated it when I played [we shared the game & console] because I never fast traveled in case I came across a cave or even just for hunting. I did have Wombus, the immortal horse tho

That's just what they called their horse; there's no horse named that in the game. On Elder Scrolls Online, the Witches Festival holiday event has begun! I'm thrilled that they're gonna incorporate lore holidays into the game.

I've waited all year for this.
