I wonder how this game became so successful... it's full of bugs, even for its time. Maybe it's a nostalgia factor? Or just because it became extremely popular? A game that has bugs is no good. It's that simple.

not everyone is a coomer
>>712969620 (OP)
Wft happened here?

>>712969980
I have no idea
legendary pieces with garbage damage that we started with in the game KEK this game gets on my nerves. I mean, fuck.. armor bug? seriously?
>>712969694
Maybe

>I wonder how this game became so successful
you can mod the shit out of it
>but but
no, that's it

Shit thread, kys op.

this is now a NMDF thread

>>712969620 (OP)
I have a 2019 save with the same problem (thousand hours of gameplay)


unfortunately, I don't know what to do. I have literally 40 dragon bones and I made these pieces and tried to upgrade them, but then.. boom! all with garbage damage. this basically killed my game.
I don't know if it has to do with my Blacksmithing ability? Let's just say I didn't use normal methods

>>712970246

>>712969620 (OP)
OP is dilating because the game is bugged lmao I feel good knowing about your dilating and how you wasted time collecting these pieces to die to level 30 bandits hahah cry more, you loser

>>712970263
So what to do? What a shitty game

>Let's just say I didn't use normal methods
Did you use modav or setav? Use modav

>>712970512
unfortunately not. what you can do is sell this shit to recover money at least, but what happens next is that practically no armor can be improved with gigachad levels and the same with swords, your game is dead.

>>712970606
no. I just cloned items, (whiterun) I don't know if that messed up the game

>>712969620 (OP)
what's the bug here?

>>712970706
It's supposed to have better values

>>712970706
This>>712970761
>>712970624
What a shit huh? Does anyone at least know the REASON FOR THIS SHIT?

>>712970761
maybe he doesn't have heavy armor leveled and/or perked up and/or didn't use a blacksmithing potion/enchanted gear while doing so

kk, gnt gang

>>712970886
forgot related captcha image

>>712970886
No. Its a bug

>>712969620 (OP)
It's popular because it's one of the most modded games in the world.
Earlier this year I even had a playthrough where I shoved two quest overhauls in the game and then played for eighty hours as a necromancer loli that summoned shota skeletons and hololive girls as my only source of damage. For utility, I also had tentacle spells that would incapacitate anybody who failed to resist it while fucking their mouth and anus.
This shit didn't even crash either. The game is a digital playground.

>>712970886
>have heavy armor leveled
OP looks pretty sad, but in this guy's defense, I have a save at level 43 and I have that chain mail armor that poisons (I forgot the name) and with ebony I managed to level up to level 1100. I think he's bugged, by the way, his armor is heavy, I think he must already be at a high level in that, if not, he's retarded.

>>712970761
it's better to place an increased magicka enchant instead of a regen one. Magicka regen is % based so having more magicka nets you more MP per second, this is better especially in battles because of the already reduced regen speed

>>712969620 (OP)
I don't understand why a legendary object has such a low level?

>>712971296
Are you kidding me? This is the real problem, genius. It's bugged.

>>712971108
Meh you may be right, but I'm not minmaxing, also I'm playing requiem which makes default Nord regen suuuuper slow. The build I'm doing is mostly warrior, I have morokei stacked on top of this as well. I have around 500% regen rate currently with a 400 point mana pool, works for me since all I ever cast are healing spells and lightning bolt.

>>712971403
>>712970964
i don't believe u, show your heavy armor level/skill tree and SoS cock

>>712971586
If the thread lasted until tomorrow, I would show it. I'm at my girlfriend's house and my console is at my parents' house, but believe me anon, I'm a roleplaying bronze age norseman with heavy armor (literally, I only wear that) besides, how do you think I killed dragons to make these damn pieces? It's not easy. I'm level 59 by the way

>>712971723
allright i believe you, game is also bugged on my side so i don't really have a reason to doubt you

>>712971568
Who said that having leveled pieces in the tree directly influences the attributes? Stop lying
>>712971723
You seem to be lying too. By the way, you can kill a dragon in several ways

>>712971904
again... why would I lie? damn, making these pieces takes forever and no amount of followers or guards or whatever the hell you have in mind would make it possible for you to kill all these dragons and the other anon above made it clear that I'm not the only one

>>712969620 (OP)
You might not like it, but the answer is soul. Skyrim, and all Elder Scrolls games for that matter, are greater than the sum of their parts. And no one else can do it. We know, because others have tried and failed

>>712972027
>The witcher

>>712972076
Not even close

>>712971904
Why would I lie about my modded skyrim character. Also that wasnt me who made that claim. I don't even remember how the vanilla mechanics work anymore, for me "it justs works" as a wise man once said

>>712971904
are you okay?

I bet the dumb OP didn't know that you need to have everything leveled up because having a master blacksmith level is useless when your level isn't aligned with that

>>712972135
yes, I'm talking about the base game. not mods
and you're wrong about that I bet you're the OP sameflag

>>712972236
Not even using the same font in-game. Meds unironically

>>712969620 (OP)
Its nostalgia for me, but not in the same way as oblivion. 2012 was the last good time that we ever had, probably until the rest of our lives before everything went to become a total, irreparable shit. skyrim here was just a little bit part of it, just like any other media that we consoomed back then, so when I played skyrim I always remember some of those times. Not exactly good or filled with innocence like when I plaued oblivion, but atleast, it was one of the times where I still have a little bit of hope for the future

>>712972149
>>712970886
wait... do we need to be at maximum level in the tree so that our weapons and armor can have better results? I think that explains my problem
>>712971723
>59
What? I got parts at level 20 because you are bad

>>712971904
>>712972236
what do you mean with "Who said that having leveled pieces in the tree directly influences the attributes"?
having an enchanted armor piece that gives magicka DOES increase your magicka, duh

>>712972236
moron, compare the sources
me>>712969620 (OP)
and the other anon>>712970761
totally different. he uses mods, I don't. you lost

>>712972382
Answer me anons

>>712972382
it's not just the perks, heavy armor level alone also increases heavy armor stats

>>712972624
This is me
I have heavy armor and I have a similar problem as the OP

>>712972769
wait a minute... I think everything I have is at a lower level haha I had a sword with an extreme level and now it's low I think my game has a virus

>>712972769
the base armor rating of a dragonplate armor is of 46, doubling it with smithing goes to 92, having levels / perks in heavy armor increases it to 138~, OP's armor value is totally reasonable and not bugged

you can use this calculator to see how different levels and perk affect each armor piece/set
https://dotnetfiddle.net/iSi6mr

>>712973208
skill up to 100, but while I was going through my weapons today, I noted that my two handed weapons all had significantly lower damage values than they previously did. I checked out my skill tree, and instead of readinig out at 100 as it should

>>712969620 (OP)
Not all bugs are created equal. Most Bethesda bugs are the funny kind that don’t negatively impact the average player thaaaat much. When most people complain about bugs it’s quest breaking/save bricking/crashing problems

>>712973208
this is what i bet OP's stats are
Heavy armor lvl 85~
3 perks in juggernaut
smithing 100 + dragonsmithing
those stats are the minimum required to get a dragonplate to 142 armor value

>>712973208
Look at this
WTF

>>712973680
can you show your heavy armor stats aswell?

>>712973680
although I doubt the OP, my game is really broken
see, a 5000 armor (it had very good damage) and now with extremely low damage and this is happening with all my stuff does anyone know what this could be?

>>712973605
Is your guy sick with something? Check active effects

>>712973729
I already showed it
but it wasn't like this before. I even improved this armor in the forge
everything (100%) is having a low level. my bow too what the hell is this???

>>712973871
i clearly meant your heavy armor's skill level

>>712969620 (OP)
It gets good when you install a few hundred mods
>>712973675
I'm pretty sure you hit the resistance cap way before you need all that minmaxing

>>712973816
I don't think there is such a strong disease
especially when my life, energy and magic attributes are all green and healthy
I think my game is possessed by a demon or something like that, there is no explanation

>>712973917
>I'm pretty sure you hit the resistance cap way before you need all that minmaxing

i don't think you understood what i used that calculator for

>Using Heavy Armor
You could just wear Dark Brotherhood armor forever anon, sneak around a dungeon one-shot everything with a dagger
Next you're going to reveal that you use a two-handed weapon as well when dual wielding has a higher DPS output
I bet you don't even use Alteration and Illusion in battle, at least dabble a little in Conjuration?

>>712973680
To give you an idea, this armor of mine had armor of more than 900 and I have a white sword that you get in a cave that was giving such high damage that I killed dragons with 10/9 damage and when I entered today everything is like this

>>712969620 (OP)
>actual skyrim gameplay(bugs) thread
I want to replay it so bad but I don't want to be stealth archer and I've already completed the game once as a warrior.
What fun builds would you recommend, anons?

>>712972382
>wait... do we need to be at maximum level in the tree so that our weapons and armor can have better results? I think that explains my problem
Yes.
So made a subpar armor cuz ur not maxxed and even more than maxed agumented with the alchemy glitch. Its very easy to reach the defense cap of 80% (only 20% of the damage can penetrate) but thats end game.

Fuck bros I'm so sad and frustrated. What the hell happened? I wasted time on this game if this is the end I searched on the internet and no one knows what it is.

>underage op makes the most obvious troll thread known to man
>64 bumps and counting

>>712969620 (OP)
what bug?

>>712974195
its your fucking blacksmiting level thats all alchemy and enchanting are broken
you want to min max look up a fucking guide how to break the defense system max is 80% defense against all damage.

Or you can go atronach stone and make a magic absorber character that is also OP af

>Someone is discussing vanilla Skyrim character building
How much did Todd pay you? I refuse to believe that anyone would voluntarily try to dive into the perks and leveling of vanilla Skyrim
>>712974115
Play with mods like normal person. Good Race/Perks/Spells/Gameplay modlist will give you plenty of ideas for builds

>>712974195
Skyirm game since it was released this bug was known since that time and there is no solution

>>712974115
Can't go wrong with conjurer/necromancer. Go vampire with it too. Throw some points into illusion for pacify/enrage. Let the hilarity ensue

>>712974319
Dude, you don't understand
I had my level lowered on absolutely everything. Swords with level 1000 went to less than 100, armors from 1000 went to less than 60, etc.

>>712974417
Why were they 1000 in the first place

>>712974417
This is a bug. I can confirm that curing poison, curing disease, resting, load/restart, shrine or unequipping everything doesn't fix this. It also isn't listed in the active effects. I have heard the bug affecting markmanship (red 15 or 25) and seen it affect one-handed (red 15

>>712974417
Sounds like the game detected value errors and reset things to their proper values, go back to a save where everything was overpowered
For example it doesn't matter if your armor has 5000+ armor rating, the max armor value cap is like 650 or 80%, at that point you just wear whatever you think looks nice and go adventure.

>>712974478
this can't be real
why is it always me? why do i have to be so unlucky? and to make matters worse, my boss is going to sell the company

>>712974549
>go back to a save where everything was overpowered
autosave screwed me. not possible

>>712974589
>Playing a notoriously buggy game with no fan patches and all that
>Intentionally breaking the game by making OP items
>The game breaks
>"Why does it have to be me?"
Honestly, you might as well just use console commands

>>712974705
I use console my dear
and this didn't happen after a long time, it was literally now

>>712974654
>relying on autosaves
>in a bethy game
come on now. Are you retarded?

>>712969620 (OP)
It’s impossible to make a game of that scope without at least some bugs and jank.

People forgive it because the games are one of a kind.

>>712974805
first time playing

And now it turns out that he's playing LE or even worse on a console

>>712970182
But how did it become so successful on consoles initially? Sure there's mods now, but back a decade ago Oblivion was all they had for mass market appeal and somehow it worked.

>>712974909
Yes
Help me?

>>712969620 (OP)
That's not even a bug. A bug is when you fall on your horse and fall through to the bottom of the world and die over and over again. That's a more typical elder scrolls bug.

>>712975072
Even God can't help you

>>712969620 (OP)
all products have bugs, literally everything that's made has faults
its impossible to find them all, regardless of resources at hand

so by your logic not only there isn't a single good game in the history of vidya, but there isn't a single good product ever produced either

you know nothing about games development

Because le epik bugz and maymayz funnee ecks dee. Flanderized and raped series.
