Aura whisper is the only one I've used *heavily*, though I rely on (and waste too much time with because of cooldowns) it too much

Ice form is useful. Unrelenting force is fun, but doesn't pay the dividends Ice Form does (IMO) so it's a novelty for me. Same with Call Dragon - it's entertaining but ...

My completionist playthrough was with a Dunmer and for the sake of RP I never opened the burial urns given the Dunmer ancestral reverence

Still can't bring myself to loot the dead. I mean - if it's a draugur or skeleton that tried to kill me that's one thing, but no touching the silent ones on the ...

I think this is explained well through the following example:

If you become friends with Alvor in Riverwood by joining Hadvar in escaping Helgen, Alvor says "Like I said, I'm glad to help in any way I can. Help yourself to whatever you need, within reason ." (http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Alvor ...

Thanks for the input, Khali and perylousdemon!

Well I solved most of my problems by frame limiting the game to 59 FPS - apparently it was an issue with AMD crossfire that you can get around that way. It was getting very annoying, with me teleporting a couple feet at a time and almost dying because ...

I've never played a human race ...

I've never used alteration or alchemy apart from grinding/making money (I had to add making money because it's the first thing I did in my new playthrough) ...

I'm pretty sure I've never eaten a sweetroll ...

I've certainly never stopped to eat food in the ...

Hey guys & gals ...

I haven't played Skyrim in almost a year after doing a completionist, ~250 hour playthrough last winter

Now that I have a lot of PC to play with (5Ghz octocore, two R9 280Xs w/ total of 6GB VRAM, SSDs in RAID0) I reinstalled (Steam) Skyrim and threw a bunch of graphical mods ...

and for results about rebooting look above.

All I read is a superstition about rebooting the route having an effect on its life of service ... if you want us to troubleshoot play along

Did you install inSSIDer or another program that will show you neighboring networks? Post the screen if you ...

What do you mean when you say "internet supplier's test results?"

Since it performs fine when you are directly connected to the router's switch I think you've isolated the issue to your wireless, not the provider or DNS (those errors are understandable given your poor performance)

As a side note ...

I wouldn't go with that HD you posted ... yeah it's 10K RPM but it only has 16MB cache and 250GB on the platter. Aside from small cache the lower data density means that the drive will have to spin a lot more to read the same amount of information as a 1 or 2TB drive. 1 decent Seagate 2TB 7200RPM ...

Been upgrading the 'rig lately

CPU: (still) AMD FX-8350 (but) @ 5.0Ghz on 8 cores
GPU: Two Gigabyte AMD R9 280X 3GB OC Rev2 cards in crossfire
HD: Two Samsung 840 SSD's in RAID0 (for ~twice the performance of one)
+ a Seagate 2TB
MOBO: ASUS Sabertooth Rev2 990FX with NB overclocked to 2600Mhz
PSU ...

The Fallout Gods demand I play Fallout Tactics. I cannot resist their calling

So, continuing from out debate in the GD thread, what do you think about the state of Gondor? Was it strong? Was it weak? Were its soldiers brave for being able to hold out against the enemy for so long, despite being weakened by centuries of war, weak rule and misrule, disease, famine?

I assume ...

Oh yeah ...

Neverwinter Nights (1) until I found a player-guided custom-made pseudo-mmorpg server

and Dragon Age:Origins. Combat was tiresome for me (much like NWN2 but that was more interesting IME/O), linear story progression, over-promised yet almost-nonexistant replayability, etc. etc.

Hmmm ...

The extra maps CD for Duke Nukem 3D was pretty terrible, though I still have it

Same with Deus Ex 2, though I had to have it

Oh and From Dust, unless they finally fixed some of the console-to-PC port issues and having to use Ubisoft's launcher (when they said we wouldn't). Haven't bought ...

I would certainly pick this game up if you happen across a big sale (I think I paid ~$7.50 for the game and its expansion through steam last year).

I'm an enormous Deus Ex 1 fan. I've played the game every year since it came out (if you do play Deus Ex 1 I highly recommend the Shifter mod and New ...

Same as Avron here - we've missed the snows luckily but it's still too cold for the old snow to finally melt

Objective #1 for me is to start composting outside. Will of course grow the obligatory tomatoes (and there are lots of feral cherry tomatoes that grow from past plantings), not sure what/if ...

First Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magik Obscura playthrough in probably 3 years. Liking it so far - enjoying Virgil's voice acting a lot more than I remembered :D

If anyone else is interested in playing, the mod order goes:

Official Patch
Unofficial Patch
Improved Townmaps
Hi-Res Patch

Probably ...

I downloaded the single player sub-mod for dayz called Daizy. Its pretty fun and nice switch to the multiplayer. Team up with survivors/bandits controlled by the AI, or prey on them

That sounds fun.

I'd like to get into DayZ. I have no interest in ARMA II though so I'm waiting for the standalone ...

Any word on when that'll be yet?

Today in history Francis I became Pope

Walked into the Bishop casino in New Reno after becoming a made man for the Mordinos ... bouncers had tommyguns and my followers decided to use the weapons from their inventory that they wanted instead of what I told them to use. The bartender and gangsters littering the casino floor didn't help ...

I doubt it

Games that don't make use of multiple cores will typically be low-enough demand of resources that you'll still have FPS greater than your monitor displays (like with oblivion). Dual core > quad core was more of a 2009 discussion, on outdated architectures and before many people had real-time ...

Download inssider and post what your RSSI with your home network is. If you could post a screenshot of inssider working (you can cover up the ssid's in paint or photoshop if you wish) we could see if your and your neighbors channel selections lead to crosstalk/interference
