Ah damn.
I tend to quick save ahead of any major fight, and create a new save every time I leave the game. Got upwards of 50 saves to revert to should I want to. _________________

I used to make a new save for every save. But that just started to lag when going into the save/load screen, so I deleted 300 or so saves and now I just use about 10 for each character.

Did someone steal your sweetroll.
I have 170 saves. I really should start deleting some. 90 hours into my main and finally reached level 50. The Brotherhood questline was probably the best in the game, but I have just started The Thieves Guild and it's looking promising. High level stealth is pretty cool.

Gf is 83 hours in and has almost 2000 saves so far. She saves like every 5 minutes or something.
Meanwhile I have like...12 after 130+ hours. _________________

How many of you have the Skyrim Platinum?
I'm 94%, so close, yet so far.
No lag to speak of either.

Quite.
I fell through the world in the first five minutes of play after a bizzare altercation with a cabbage cart. Fell into the next floor of the dungeon and broke the AI scripting. _________________

They really should have just have given the trophy for completing the quests rather than doing them specifically how bethesda wanted, since that sort of ruins the whole idea of freedom this game promotes.
It's really not too much of a hassle though, as I figured I'll start a new game as a Khajit using magic/dagger combination and play the game in a completely different way to keep it fresh. |
You didn't get the Skull of Corruption right? If so, you can actually still get the achievement.

I have the save right from the very beginning, one main save that I save every time I am about to exit the game. 1 quicksave that I overwrite before fights or whenever I feel like I need to.. there seems to be about 3 or 4 autosave files in there that I haven't created... I'm someone who is ok with the decisions I make during the game. If I stuff it up so I can't complete something for a Steam achievement, I can live with that as long as I enjoy the game. In fact I have felt ok about more decisions than I normally would in most games.. even killing named NPCs and getting on the bad side of people.. _________________

Nah, I didn't get the Mask of Clavicus Vile. In regards to your other tip it's too late for that. By the time I realised I'd pretty much done all the Daedric quests... Including that one.
Thanks for your tip though. _________________

Have you checked if Sinding is still there? A lot of people have reported going back well after completing that quest and he was still in the Grotto. _________________

Yeah, I went back but since I chose to kill him in the quest there's not much I can do about it. _________________

97 hours and I think I am done. Done all questliness, daedric quests and when exploring the world I'm not picking up any named quests any more.

I applied that TESV Acceleration Layer and noticed a sizable increase in performance, especially in the heaviest hit areas. Definitely pick this up guys.
