Finally decided to give Skyrim a try and I'm liking it a lot more than I thought I would.

BUT...

I'm running into what seems to be a major bug on the Way of the Voices quest.

When I'm told to use my shout to prove I'm Dragonborn, I shout but the ****er just keeps telling me to show them my shout!

And I can only shout once per day so I keep reloading my save point which is just outside their doors. I've gone through this probably 20 times without success and I'm about to give up on the game.

I've read a bunch online and others have had this issue but none of their solutions have worked.

Pretty ****ing frustrating!!!

Well for one I wouldn't buy a smart tv because a $3 hdmi cable turns any tv into a super duper smart tv.

Edit: Although some people don't have their pc as close to their tv as I do. But still I'd just hook up my laptop if it weren't.

I don't have an extra $3k to spend tho so I get that others would prefer to just have a smart tv and be done with it.

Derp, just realized you have to equip this from the magic tab or whatever it's called.

smart TV's aren't $3k. My 55" vizio was only $800.

But it's a vizio :P

Those 4K tv's are 3k though

Seriously though, a good hd/smart tv should run you $700-1800, depending on size/brand. You could buy a $1000 hdmi cable to feel superior to everyone else though.

Never said they were. Just meant I don't have $3k to spend on a new gaming system which includes a tv.

You can get a 32 inch smart tv for like $450. I got my 32 inch recently, sane brand with the same everything minus the smart tv features for $230.

Just seems dumb to pay to have a Netflix app on my tv when I can just hook up my pc/laptop with a $3 cable but it's obviously worth the extra price for many people.

Also chromecasts allow you to stream a few apps from your phone like netflix, hbogo, youtube etc.

Why do you care so much what others do with their lives? I'm sure someone out there thinks SC2 is ****ing the nut low of life (obv it's not). But the fact is enjoyment is relative and it's all in the eye of the beholder. The fact that you give so many ****s about what they do and then vent it to a bunch of gamers/random people is probably just as pathetic bro. I mean seriously why do you care so much? Is your life that boring?

Prob xbox for apps. Not too familiar with the Bone and Ps4 apps, but my 360 has way more apps than ps3. You like Game of Thrones if I remember and HBOgo isn't on ps4 afaik etc.

You know you can just rest for 24 hours right? Are you on pc playing or xbox? You can just use your ability, sleep 24 hours (it takes like 5-8 seconds) and have your ability back up. I had one that made me invisible and my sneak was 100 so I basically broke this (bad) game. It's fun but any game I can cheat my stats all to 100 is bad and needs to be fixed.

I bought PS Vita just for Persona 4 and Dangan Ronpa. If you can use it for even more, snap buy imo

Vita software is pretty lacking ATM. Walking Dead, Terraria, Spelunky, Tearaway, Thomas Was Alone and Luftrausers is about all I have any interest in. Hopefully some more interesting stuff comes out. I don't own a PS and I hate Japanese games (except for From stuff!), but I don't really regret getting it for the above games.

That moment where, after your party in an RPG was too weak to progress, you grind for hours and hours, and the mindless joy of grinding becomes more appealing than making the effort to try to progress again.

Lol this used to happen to me in old pokemon games I couldn't help but level up if I saw one of my pokemon was close. And then you see they'll evolve soon or learn another move soon. And then you don't want your party to be too uneven level wise...

I used to have "rules" with regards to grinding in 8-32 bit RPGs. If I was in a dungeon and anybody gained a level, I would turn around and go back out to the town (fighting more monsters along the way), sleep and save. Arbitrary rule, but I guess it's decent because it builds in just a little bit of extra grinding without you having to make decisions about timing.

When I played FF1 for NES I wouldn't leave the area near a new town until I could afford to buy the best weapons, armor and magic available. So I was mostly grinding for gold in that game, with EXP as a by-product. In Dragon Warrior 1 it was the reverse.

After finishing FF1 for some reason I went back and ground even more until all characters were maxed out at 99. I then beat the final boss in 2 hits.

That wasn't the issue. I was shouting without having activated the necessary type of shout.

Basically I hasn't used magic or shouts up to that point (except after I killed the first dragon) so didn't even know there was a shout menu.

Makes sense then. It's been a while since I played Skyrim.
