Dragonborn song

[CzeReptile]

Around 2:30 you can hear this from any theme

For the king!
For the king!
For the sake of Skyrim!
For our life, for our home
For Hrothgar's blood
For the Nords and for the Gods,
For the sole single son
Dovahkiin, our king, who'll dawn with fire!

Also we know very well that there's a part where they'r saying "me gustaaaa" xD

or

For the king x2
For the nine, our hope
On High Hrothgars path
and when all of Sovngarde
Where souls sing your song
Dovahkin, our king (or kin)
Who will guard Hrothgar

There is no english version; it was a misheard version of the original before people realised it was being sung in a fictional language.

It was confirmed by Bethesda that they created a song which is both in Dragon language and in English. I could try to dig up the video again.

So it's not misheard, it's on purpose.

English Translation:

Dragonborn Dragonborn
By his honor is sworn
To keep evil forever at bay
And the fiercest foes rout
When they hear triumph's shout
Dragonborn for your blessing we pray

And the scrolls have fortold
Of black wings in the cold
That when brothers wage war come unfurled
Alduin bane of kings
Ancient shadow unbound
With a hunger to swallow the world

As I was entering my credit card number to buy Skyrim on steam, it dawned on me:

This youtube video is actually a commercial brought to you by what ever company is marketing skyrim.

Explains the super duper singing and excellent sound and mic that is like... more expensive than most professional musicians can afford.

She still coulda done it live tho. A few glitches woulda made it look even more real.

Anyhow...

How is the game play?

Is the <strike>50 bucks</strike> time to get into learning how to play worth it?

Its still a very well done video anyway.

Well, you could read this forum thread ...

Or you could read THIS forum thread ...

Or this one ...

Or even this one ...

However, since you're getting it on Steam, that means that you'll have access to the console, and thus all the mods available for computers - which CONSIDERABLY change the gameplay.

Let me ask you this -

Have you ever played any of the OTHER Elder Scroll games? Do you enjoy a deep, rich environment that is, ultimately, single player? Do you have an issue doing things rather repetitively to improve your skills, and thus your level? Are you end-goal focused, or are you willing to put aside the main quest and just go exploring?


If you have an issue with any of those things, then chances are you're not going to like the game. Skyrim is one of those games that you probably CAN finish the main quest in about 20 some odd hours. But since this is an open world - you literally can go anywhere and everywhere in this world. There may be some in game consequences - a bounty or two, but that's part of this being effectively a single player RPG.

Oh, and if you DO decide to get the game, make sure you go here - a lot. It's all well and good to mix potion ingredients a few times trying to find out what makes what - but after a while, just having the charts available helps.

I personally have the game for both my Xbox 360 AND my PC. I'm on my second time through on the Xbox, my character is about half-way through to being the uber queen of Skyrim. It is sort of nice walking around looking incredibly bad-ass. (That's a generic picture - not my character personally - but when my armor and ability approaches that of a main battle tank, it's sort of nice.)

My PC character - that's sort of funny. She's a pervert. Likes to run around and take away things from people. Like all their clothes. And since, gee, it's on the PC, I happen to have both female AND male nude mods. It's actually pretty darned funny when you get a battle between about 20 some odd people going and they're all nekkid... :)

The Creation Kit is also available as a free Steam download as well, and Steam has their own workshop with free mods available. However, if you prefer some of the more ... erm ... adult themed mods, you'll need to pick those up from the Skyrim Nexus.

Geez thanks for all the info.

I never played any elder scroll games. I played ultima 9 (Its from around 1999, methinks), which was kinda the first game of that sort to have a full 3d world. And some precuels to that.

I like a game that stays interesting for a long time. Do I understand correctly that after you finieshed the main quest, there are like an infinity of more quests, some of them maybe harder than the main one?

Can you like... buy a house or castle and live there? Are there companions or mercs that you can hire? Can you ride a horse? Since you mentioned the nekkid part. Can you... like... you know... score too?

[Korny]

In short, yes you can do all these things. Skyrim doesn't end. Sure, un-modded you will lose interest after some time. But even without mods it's a game that'll entertain and occupy you for quite some time.

But, the real fun comes in with mods, like each Elder-Scrolls game. It's modding fanbase is infinite, which means it'll keep you entertained with new mods to come and new content to be added for years, I mean it.

It's well worth 100 bucks if it was that expensive.

You can finish the main quest? Wow - I've been SO sidetracked lately, doing the effectively unlimited sidequests, that I forgot about the main quest. Now where is that pesky party invitation... :)

As for living spaces - I tend to go with three homes purchased. There's no need for many more than that when you have the Dawnstar Sanctuary (home for wayward assassins), the Arch-Mage's quarters (home for wayward magic users), and if you're playing on the PC, add the mod Dovakhin's Hideout. Talk about your inter-dimensional wormholes and/or magic doorways...

Companions - amusingly enough one group is CALLED the Companions. I just hope you're not allergic to silver and like the smell of wet fur. :) The best I've done so far is having two followers PLUS my horse plus Barbas - and all three of us ended up casting Daedric summoning. Takes care of the question 'you and what army' quite well. That's on an UN-modded version.

And yes, you can change the loadouts of the people that are your followers. (You have different kinds - the true followers because they're your housecarls and you're their thane; the ones that follow you because you're head of their guild or organization, and the ones you just hire. It's sort of nifty when you have your housecarl equipped with daedric armor just like you have - lets them live a LOT longer...)

As for actual video / gameplay showing sex - I've seen more than one mod for Oblivion that does that, but I haven't seen one for Skyrim yet. Doesn't mean it's not out there, just haven't found it. However, I'm sure at some point it'll get made. In the basic game with no mods, you can get married - and you gain the benefit of 'lovers comfort' when you sleep in bed with your spouse. Of whatever gender or race they happen to be.

My female Nord, Juliette Silver-Blood (who was kicked out of Markarth when she was young, that's why she was in the prisoner wagon - she was coming home to claim her heritage), is married to Ysolda, the female merchant who wanted a Mammoth Tusk. Right now we live in Proudspire Manor in Solitude, along with our housecarl Jordis the Sword-Maiden, and we're occasionally visited by Lydia, my housecarl from Whiterun.
