Speaking of which, anyone else like Ebony more than Daedric?  Daedric isn't perfectly symmetrical and that bugs me.  Also, it feels like daedric is just too evil looking.  I certainly don't play that way on my warrior.
Ebony looks...I dunno, gay. Specially the helmet. In heavy armors, I like the look of Orcish the most.
Dragonplate would have looked better if it was darker. It makes you look like a fucking huge skeleton ;D

Daedric Helmet looked cool, but it removed my head 2 times :D

A book in Morrowind actually described that Daedric armour and weapons are made from high quality ebony infused with daedric soul and forged over fires filled with burning victims and all that kind of sadist shit. Imagine my surprise when I could forge it myself in any common forge in Skyrim.
For one thing, Tiff is not on any level what I would call a typical American.  She's not what I would consider a typical person.  I don't know any other genius geneticist anime-fan martial artist marksman model-level beauties, do you?

Yeah... that never made any sense at all to me in Skyrim.

Indeed, it would be great if there was some specific place where you could only do Daedric armor and weapons in some underground cavern. And you would have to do some ritual for it. And also offer a soulgem filled with a Human soul.
But i guess that is why you need the Daedric Heart to make anything daedric.

Do you also get abducted by the Dark Brotherhood if you kill the chick with Grelod the Kind that is now Grelod the Dead  ;) in the honorable orphanage? Can I also use some necromancy magic to make her a zombie of some kind? I really enjoyed killing Grelod the Kind... Haha. ;D

I don't know since I didn't bother raising her ugly mug back from the grave. lol. But you don't have to worry about running out of fresh bodies to reanimate in the dark brotherhood quest line..  ;) my collection of bodies look more like that underwater garden near that cabin by the lake, full of beautiful fragile things that sometimes makes you wish that they weren't so.. dead.

I got so tired of Lydias shitty attitude and getting in my way all the fucking time so I killed her and turned her into a carry weight enchant so she can continue to carry my burdens =P

Best use of a follower so far, I never even use them anymore because they are so annoying to deal with.

The only awesome companion is Cicero in my opinion. What the fuck is wrong with him? Charging with an ebony dagger and jester suit and then stabbing everyone to death in mere seconds. That guy is a glass cannon of a companion.

The problem with thralls though is that you can't give them new armor and keep it that way. Followers to me act more like an armor display rack more than anything else.

Btw, has anyone tried enthralling that cute bard with an awesome voice (Lisette) in the Winking Skeever in solitude? I'm thinking of starting a collection of enthralled female bards so I can always hear their chorus of melodious moans behind me..

This is what your character does in the forge.

...and forged over fires filled with burning victims and all that kind of sadist shit...
I suspect that's more a matter of ritual for the daedra and has nothing to do with the quality of the armor. As we have seen, the daedra need absolutely no reason do gory things.

As a matter of fact I think I saw someones vid on youtube in Japanese Dub with her as a thrall, pretty amusing :)
I'm thinking about getting the japanese version and installing the audiotrack in my English (UK) version :)

Still, it's weird that craftsmanship of immortal Dremora that involves their techniques can suddenly be replicated by just some fucking guy. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining over game mechanic, just think that it is a bit confusing lore wise.

Also, have you read "Sheogorath invents music"? The best example there is to Daedra and goriness.

Really? From my experience female japanese voice actors have their voices ranged from high pitched to chipmunk. The bane of all anime that I try very hard to ignore.

In either way, out of morbid curiosity I wonder how they dubbed Ulfric's deep manly voice in japanese dub.

nah. not like chipmunks. I think they breed their female seiyuus to sound more like 'yamete'/'itai' hentai material.. lol.

There are hardly any Male Voice actors in Anime Industry, shows the level of Japanese voice range between genders.
But they DO have some amazing Male voice actors especially for deep voices, you recognize them in every anime once you heard at least one time someplace. You can basically recognize every voice actress if you seen enough anime.

Japanese dub really is amazing, but for some reason it is being ridiculed on the Bethesda forums. I will DL it if I find it and cuz of the epicness. And since you can enable subtitles for every conversation it's not going to be a problem at all.

I think Daedric Armor could be allowed for a player to forge at any forge if the player got the perk and then started a quest to obtain a special Dremora written book, after that it should be possible to make equipment.

But as said earlier, the game was dumbed down quite a lot so they probably didn't want the player to bother him/her self with such details.

I am pretty amazed and pissed off at how powerful double enchant is. I made myself a Daedric Bow, made myself some blacksmithing gear (and found some as well so I have around 88% stronger improvements) and my bow now deals 301 damage + 40 fire damage + 40 frost damage, I also found a few Daedric arrows (I have a total of 5 of them) and all I can say, poor dragons :P
My Bow + Ebony Arrows (cuz I want to preserve my daedric arrows for a while) + headgear (+28% bow damage) + necklace (+28% bow damage) + scaled steel bracers (+30% bow damage) + Ring (+28% bow damage + 28% sneaking) + leather armor ( +28% lesser destro spells cost) + boots (+28% sneaking + muffled) = NICE BOAT!

You said something interesting there. Indeed it would be awesome if you either needed books or trainers for perks in game.

Actually the coolest training I did in Skyrim was with this chick I found up on the mountain and she had a personal archery range. I gained skill every time I completed one of her challenges. I wish there would be more stuff like that in game.

I wonder if the Nords still sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Japanese dubs.. (Come with me if you want to live!)

Maybe they should've just let you smith it in the Atronach Forge down in Winterhold College.

I'm actually playing at max difficulty. But I went back to using Bound Weapons primarily when I realized how overpowered my weapons have become (although I'm still wearing my OP armor which fortifies my archery and one-handed damage). I also gave my thralls and follower 1 daedric arrow each (since they never run out of arrows). So I can just farm it from the corpses of my enemies. (I still keep my op ebony bow and 2 op blades sword in my inventory, But I prefer the quiver for Daedric arrows more than the one for ebony)

Plus, since I got the perks that turns my armor weightless, the muffle perk, and my bound weapons are weightless as well. I can remain a friggin' ninja in dungeons since the thralls and followers are often far enough behind to get noticed. My most used spells are Clairvoyance and Bound Bow. Since I rarely fast travel anymore and enjoy enthralling some of the people I meet on the road. (queue in snoop dogg - riders on the storm :fredwreck_remix)

Indeed, I will train my conjuration for that, and make myself the king of the world :D

I'll make Daedric bows for all my thralls and I will have the mightiest army ever :D

Jarls !
Your days are NIGH!

Gotta get some modding tools to make myself the Eviction Notice quest for all those Jarls XD

This will be a lot of FUN !!!!
Oh and i'll marry the widow queen for the lulz, and then kill her and make her my thrall :)

It will be like in one of those silly Hentais XD
