Touching the Sky was incredible, and I think I have a virtual girl crush on Serana.

Schools having a snow day, I thought 'Oh god couldn't be better timing, Dragonborn is released today'. I get home and check my pre order on Steam, and it says it's not being unlocked for another 9 hours or something

Snow day and Skyrim? Damn you are lucky even if you have to wait 9 hours.

Just press T, set it for 9 hours and it's a matter of seconds.

---Possible Dawnguard spoiler---

I have a question: I did not ever choose to become a vampire but for some reason when i finished the game everybody treats me like a Vampire, when i walk walk outside it says that my blood boils from the sun and i have red eyes even though i never choose to become one, i even have the option from Serena to become a Vampire??? When i entered Soul Cairn i choose to trap my soul so i don't understand? Anyone?

Now, whenever you contract the disease (i forget what it's called, but you can even get it from random vampire enemies) you will start becoming a Vampire if you don't heal yourself with a potion or at a temple after a few days. In the original game this just made people dislike you, but now with Dawnguard it adds a bunch of additional problems too.

Once your vampirism reaches an advanced stage, like where your blood boils and you can transform, you'll need more than just a potion to heal yourself. There's a whole ritual that needs to be performed as part of a quest. You gotta talk to someone (a dark elf "mage" looking character) in Dawnstar, I think.

skydivingninja · « **Reply #2106 on:** February 05, 2013, 10:38:56 AM »

You may have contracted Sanguinare Vampiris while fighting vampires and it may have progressed to full vampirism. Sanguinare Vampiris can be cured with a cure disease potion, but once you turn into a vampire, you have to go through a quest involving black soul gems to cure it. The option to become a vampire from Harkon (and I assume Serena) is to become a Vampire Lord.

MrBoom_shack-a-lack · « **Reply #2107 on:** February 05, 2013, 10:44:51 AM »

Oh i had no idea! Yes i remember i fought Sanguinare Vampiris and that something like "you have contracted Sanguinare Vampiris" turned up but i never cared to check out what that meant. Stupid me!

Anyway thanks!

Yeah a long time ago I went in a cave full of Vampires and wasn't aware I contracted the disease, and then NPCs started telling me I looked sick, and the screen kept flashing when I went outside. I was like WTF is going on, and before I know it I'm being attacked by guards.

Nooooooo she's mine dammit! She even said "I don't wanna be in this cave, i'm glad i'm here with you"! So....take that!

I've never felt more nerdy!

Yeah well she knows that I miss her, that cheeky minx!

Cram: I've spent the day going around, finding as many words of power as possible and going through the thieves guild questline!

Yea that's exactly what has happend and apparently it's a bit harder than i thought to cure me because i'm in the later stage which means i have to feed on others to lessen the effect of the vampirism and when that's done i have to talk to an innkeeper which will send me to Morthal and talk to a man named Falion.

Man this game is awesome!!

Solstheim is really cool so far. I haven't gotten too far outside Raven Rock but I can understand why people love Morrowind so much.

snapple · « **Reply #2119 on:** February 06, 2013, 07:15:05 AM »

MQ done, all of the Raven Rock quests, done. Doing a bunch of other side quests.

Perpetual Change · « **Reply #2120 on:** February 06, 2013, 07:39:54 AM »

I still can't get a house in Solsteim. Wondering if they fixed that issue yet...

That's not an "issue", it's part of a series of quests...

Unless you mean you already did the quests and didn't get the house.

I know, but I think I've done all the necessary quest, and I haven't gotten any indication that I can buy a house...

skydivingninja · « **Reply #2123 on:** February 06, 2013, 08:42:42 AM »

Haven't even figured out where I'm supposed to go for the MQ. Been talking to people about the shrine they're building so I figure I'll just keep doing that until something happens. Or I'll just go explore the island.

Have you been asked to spy on some people suspected in a coup?

Nick · « **Reply #2125 on:** February 06, 2013, 10:02:14 AM »

So I think I'm going to create a new character and jump back in on this in a few days, and download the expansions as they become available... can't wait!

That's the quest the house is the reward for, I think you get it after doing the Ash Spawn quest the captain gives you and the quest with the mine. You might need to use Bend Will on the stone outside of Raven Rock, too.

On the subject of Serana I was very disappointed that I couldn't marry her.

Oh OK. I never did the mine. I thought I just needed the Ash Spawn question. Sucks. I kinda was hoping for the house to be a base to work out of while I did a bunch of sidequests, but it looks like I'm not gonna be getting the hose until I'm done with everything anyway

Dimitrius · « **Reply #2129 on:** February 06, 2013, 11:57:43 AM »

You just need to finish the Raven Rock quests and you will be given the house. There still will be a lot of quests left around Solstheim.

Agreed, same with Brynjolf. I have a thing for beards and accents... There will probably be a marry Serana mod out there.

Weird things happen in Solstheim! The first thing i did when i arrived was to take a 7 hour nap at a inn but when i woke up i was suddenly at a green pillar half across the island hammering at a stone thing! ....the hell?

Onno · « **Reply #2132 on:** February 06, 2013, 04:15:16 PM »

Though I did buy Dragonborn this morning, I haven't begun on the quests yet. I'm always playing on Master difficulty, and I just feel that my lvl 20 battlemage will have a hard time killing all those enemies (cave bears only need about 3 hits to kill me

). I'll try to hit about 90 or so on conjuration and one-handed before I'll do that questline.

I'm super intrigued by the story so far, I've only entered one dungeon so far and I was assaulted by tentacles...

...If you know what I mean.
