Companions were nothing more then Mules to me. I haven't grown fond of any companion in particular, I'm just exaggerated at the fact that I can't get another companion mule.

Lydia is a raper for me now, just found a staff of fireballs and she has Chillrend. She's so awesome@!!@@@

Did you do a quest that he couldn't follow you on? That's how I lost her for a bit. One of the werewolf guild quests, I had to use one of their dudes.

Tried this too. Still nothing. I would have lost him somewhere on the way from Whiterun to HoneyBrew Meadery. It's like he fell through the tile or some crap.

Have you tried sleeping, not waiting? When I lost Lydia, I slept at the Whiterun house and she was right there when I woke up.

only armor that's equipped weighs nothing. so it'll save you 10-20 lbs.

I'll try this before I revert back to some old saves. It's kind of annoying because I managed to do a lot while I didn't have him. I think the last save I have him in, is about 2 hours back.

If a console can run it, a PC from the same year can run it too at the same resolution and graphic settings.

Playing games on PC is a pain in the arse. But I think the PC people secretly love that they'll probably have to update a driver to two to make the game work.

Buy game -> put in xbox -> play the game.

cheaper, quicker, easier.

Worse graphics, worse controls, no mods, pay for online. I could go on, I presume you just don't have a decent gaming PC, because I have no problems, and they have to release patchs for consoles all the time. They are outdated and on their way out, why wouldn't I use something superior if I play a lot of games? Consoles are holding back games these days, and its not even debatable. Not saying they are worthless, and PC gaming is for everyone, they are cheap and play the new games decently, thats all they need to do and they do it. I own all 3 major consoles fwiw.

Like I said earlier, I'm well aware that the potion contains both effects. The problem is that I wanted to create a damage stamina poison, not a fortify conjuration potion that damages my stamina when I use it.

Thinking about it more though I think I might understand what the issue is. Fortify conjuration probably can't be included in a poison, so whatever I made with those ingredients had to be a potion of some sort, and since damage stamina can technically exist in both a poison and a potion, the end result was a ****ty potion with a misguided side effect.

Or perhaps fortify conjuration can exist in a poison and my theory is totally off. Still not completely sure.

No more console bickering though I promise. Working on my new mage character. Haven't finished on my main but wanted to do a pure magic as well.

Somebody else brought this up before, but people really need to put some kind of information about what the spoiler is about so people know whether or not to click. Especially with a massive game like Skyrim where you can spend hundreds of hours doing things outside of the main quest.

just found the second word to "become etheral". tried saving and unlocking it, and I don't see a difference between the shout with one word and the shout with 2 words.

I googled it but couldn't find any info about how it improves.....is it really just that the effect lasts longer? 100% waste if so.

i really doubt you can cook it because the charred skeever hide is under ingredients in the inventory and afaik everything you cook goes under food.

what potion are you trying to make? there's probably an ingredient that does the same thing and is much easier to find (if it's restore health then there's much easier stuff to use for sure).
I am just trying to make healing potions so I have a ton of other ingredients but it would be nice to be able to turn all my skeever tails into charred skeever hide. Isn't their a way to cook meat? I thought you could do basic stuff like cook salmon and stuff. I think it may have been a recipe but I'm not sure, didn't spend a lot of time cooking.

Lydia, I understand you must get bored and perhaps a little lonely just hanging around my Whiterun home waiting to be invited out for some adventuring. But the number of times I have dropped in to find you entertaining one of the local guards is beyond inappropriate. Especially when it is a different one each time, or even worse, the local beggar. That was a real low point for you.

I have no problem with you acting the town slut but doing it in my house is really not on.

It's really not that far to the Drunken Huntsman, can't you rent a room for the night there?
