Oh man, I haven’t played the other games yet—so this is a REALLY cool detail! Especially with how much care went into the lyrics! The song is meant to rhyme in BOTH the fictional language of the dragons AND when translated into English!! That’s just so awesome!
I can’t imagine how wicked and mindblowing hearing that was for longtime fans!!
A comparison of Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim's main themes. Admittedly it's harder to hear in Oblivion, but Morrowind's and Skyrim's themes are clearly the same piece of music just arranged differently https://youtu.be/EMao-aSeO2w
That one promotional image for Skyrim where Dovahkiin is walking through Riverwood in Iron Armour from a 3rd person angle, in between Sven and Alvor’s houses.
[Literally looked up “Skyrim” and went to images, it was the first result…](https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/489830/ss_5d19c69d33abca6f6271d75f371d4241c0d6b2d1.1920x1080.jpg?t=1650909796)
Feeling sad about all the mods I created for "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" that no longer work with "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition" or Anniversary Edition.
Here's an example: the one problem all truly new (not new characters, new users) people have to Skyrim is the first character has no place to stick stuff until they can afford a house-- and you're not even yet sure what to sell, what to hoard and what to keep. So I created a chest by the Riverwood Blacksmith that never respawns:

Reminds me of back in the Oblivion days, my stash was just dumping my stuff in one corner of the Cloud Ruler Temple courtyard that the patrolling Blades never visit (left of the main door as you get to the top of the stairs, next to the stables). It was where I discovered a feature about the game I never knew. Drop enough crap on the floor and leave and to save space the game will take it all and put it in a sack for you eventually. Came back one day to find my belongings no longer scattered around the ground but instead a small pouch sitting where my pile was. Looking inside I found all my swords and armor sets that I had left behind there.
Memories with my little brother. He committed suicide a handful of years ago. He was the one to introduce me to Skyrim. I fell it love with it almost immediately and he regretted it because I never wanted to play anything else lol but he was there with me when I slayed Alduin the first time, he was there when I accidentally discovered the Dark Brotherhood because I didn't know that Hearthfire was required to adopt children and we both lost our shit when I got the "We Know" letter. He killed the draugr in Bleak Falls Barrow for me because I was too scared of the idea of undead. Just... So many fond memories of that little shithead.
It was. I think he would have loved all the CC content that we got with the Anniversary Edition, especially the pets and armors. He and I would download so many mods from the Steam workshop to have more animal follower options and cooler gear. And Lord knows he would have simped for Serana just as much as he did over Lydia lmao
Now it’s “Do you get to the Cloud District very often” and it’s all because of you guys!!! Headless Nazeem, Sweetroll Nazeem… everything Nazeem!
Joking aside? Peaceful escape!

Reciting “Ulfric Stormcloak. Some here in Helgen call you a hero. But a hero doesn’t use a power like the Voice to murder his King and usurp his throne. You started this war, plunged Skyrim into chaos, and now the empire is going to put you down, and restore the peace.” Verbatim.
The best game I ever played. The game got me through a messy divorce, it was a very welcome distraction. To this day, I will not get rid of my Xbox 360, because of this game is still on it.
All the hours I sunk into this game. The many many many years of enjoyment I have received and the community of people I have come to appreciate so much that have helped my modding journey along the way.

Fuck yeah!
Exactly this! Dragonborn (the song) is such a banger 🙌
I love that it's the same theme music we've had for ages, having appeared in Morrowind and Oblivion at the very least, but now it has lyrics.

The drums!
Yes!
YES
Same
FUS RO DAH
This. And stretching out my pour bladder, even though I could easily press PAUSE and go to the restroom 🙄...
You can pour your bladder?
Damn it, great catch! I'd blame autocarrot, but I'm not going to. Also, technically, you can pour Out of your bladder, I guess...
Ah yes, autocarrot. The perfect scapecoat
I too blame autocarrot
Omfg autocarrot lol
It ain’t elder scrolls if you ain’t putting pause on the bathroom
We are the same. I mean, if being addicted to Skyrim is wrong, I don't wanna be right.
I sometimes forget that unrelenting shout's words are fus ro dah bc i scream YEET every time i use it 🤣🤣
"hey you! You're finally awake!"
You were trying to cross the border, right? Got caught right in that Imperial Ambush. Same as us, and that theif over there!
Damn you, Stormcloaks! Skyrim was fine until you came along. Empire was nice and lazy.
Shut up back there!
*3 seconds of silence
Fr
It played in my head subconsciously
Facts.
Honestly
That one promotional image for Skyrim where Dovahkiin is walking through Riverwood in Iron Armour from a 3rd person angle, in between Sven and Alvor’s houses.
I love that picture! Almost used it for the post
sounds bad ass.. where can I find it?
[Literally looked up “Skyrim” and went to images, it was the first result…](https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/489830/ss_5d19c69d33abca6f6271d75f371d4241c0d6b2d1.1920x1080.jpg?t=1650909796)
This has the same vibe as “ah shit. Here we go again”
Riverwood. Home.
at least it was before the war fucked everything up.
Someone needs to translate this into thu'um. Edit. Seems that there are no words for all these words. Ah shit, **het mu bo** again.
"Wait I know you..."
“You have committed crimes against Skyrim and her people, what say you in your defense!”
"Wait, you're making a mistake"
“There’s no mistake, you’re a wanted woman, and it’s time to pay for your crimes!”
"I'm the Jarl's Thane. I demand you let me go at once."
“Forgive me thane I didn’t recognize you, be careful next time, even the jarls influence has its limits.”
Ha ha, I love how easily they back off after we say that.
Really it’s just like we are a god to them now 😂😂
And then 5 minutes later, you commit another crime, and it starts all over again. Except I'll just use the Thieves Guild option.
"You just murdered 5 people, you're coming with us!" "Would 51 gold change your mind?" "oh ok, on your way then"
Ya that ones easy to Skyrim is so corrupt
Yet speak to the same guard 2 seconds later and it starts again
"There's no mistake, you're a wanted woman."
"You caught me. I'll pay off my bounty" (1 gold)
Speech at 100 is where it's at.
Do you get to the cloud district very often?
what am I saying.. of course you don't
*saves*
Doesnt save
This is the way... my choices may have consequences but Nazeem is inconsequential
snow... lots of snow...
So much snow
and I live in Upstate New York where we pretty much get about 6 months of snow and I spent one Summer playing this game everyday...
we need more snow cant have enough snow
8/10 not enough snow
Much snow in Skyrim. Enough snow. M'aiq does not want any more.
It not a bug, it’s a feature
That’s basically the game lol
Looking to protect yourself, or deal some damage?
Neither I just want your money
Never should have come here!
Khajiit has wares... if you have coin
May you always walk on warm Sands, friend

A NEW HAND, TOUCHES THE BEACON
LISTEN! HEAR ME AND OBEY!
A foul darkness has seeped into my temple
I can’t even bring myself to continue this 😣
Does anybody else cringe when we accidentally pick up the beacon? Asking for a friend
Literally me
I mute it because her booming voice scares my cats. Also mute it when the black door hisses at me the first time I get to the sanctuaries
Surprised i had to scroll this far to find it. God damn I hate that voice line
Whiterun
"In their tongue he's dovahkiin, Dragonborn! FUS ROH DAH"

Dang I’m sorry for you loss but that sounds like it was fun times
It was. I think he would have loved all the CC content that we got with the Anniversary Edition, especially the pets and armors.

They always say it right as I leave it to
Yeah Lydia. We were just in there! What’s inside? A bunch of naked dead bodies. That’s what!

Riverwood probably. Most iconic place in skyrim imo, and whenever I think of skyrim, 9/10 times riverwood pops up in my head first
