With all the recent talk of video games on NSG there has been one big one left out. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This game is looks wayyyy to fun. Really looking forward to slayin' some dragons!

... not to mention the ultimate hyphy game!

If you ask any innkeeper about gossip, they will tell you some kid in windhelm is practicing black magic. You might already have it in your miscellaneous quest log though

...i might have actually started it, i'll check later.

i can still join if they (the dark brotherhood) have already two assassins to try and kill me, right? lol they had notes saying that they wanted me dead.

It should start by entering a house or talking to an innkeeper and finding the kid doing the black sacrament. then he gives you a quest to kill this old hag orphanage bitch and then after you wait for a few days a courier gives you a note with the black hand on it.
Then simply go sleep at a bed in an inn and you start the brotherhood!

regardless of gaming background, skyrim is enjoyable. The game plays you, as in you can do whatever you please. whether that be go around and do whatever you please the game has very little control over what you want to do as you see in other RPG's

Can't find this little kid for the Dark Brotherhood quests, he's supposed to be in the Candlehearth Hall, right? I think it could be because I finished all the thieves guild, imperial, and mage quests.

Yeah sneaking makes the game ridiculously. I clear dungeons with no effort whatsoever. And I interchange bows and one handed often, it's just when one is not more ideal than the other, I just use one handed because I have high one handed

So...

THE DARK BROTHERHOOD
All is going well when the legion attacks and clears out the whole sanctuary killing EVERYONE
You then have to go KILL CICERO
Cicero was the ADORING FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

The THIEVE'S GUILD
The main guy steals everything from the guild and you have to KILL HIM

THE COMPANIONS
You become a warewolf
You kill warewolf hunters
The leader dies and you become the leader (Shocker, AMIRITE)
MAGE'S GUILD
The obvious THALMAR badguy turns out to be the bad guy and you kill him.

MAIN QUEST
You kill dragons and get shouts
You have to kill the leader of the bad dragons
to do this you capture a dragon and ride on its back to heaven ( FOR REALS )
You kill the badguy with some help from some other people who can shout

Oh and there may have been some mentioned spoilers in the text above...

Now that you know what happens you can proceed with the rest of your life.
