What's with all the rage about Twilight? :roll: Those films are gorram hilarious.

Haters gonna hate.

For me, its watching dumbass girls swoon over an expression of purest chauvinism produced by an unloved wife.

[mod]Let's keep it not too unpleasant or off-topic. There are people that like those movies after all.[/mod]

[spoiler]Though for the life of me I can't figure out why.[/spoiler]

Back on topic, I'm up to level 31, and I've not even explored more than half of the map, much less gone far on the main quest. I've just been poking around ruins and so on. I feel like 50 levels won't be enough :P

For whatever reason, my "Bolar's Blade" has vanished. Did not drop it, or sell it. Can certain mobs disarm you in combat or destroy your weapon? or NPCs steal from you? or is this a glitch and its lost fovever?

For those who haven't seen it, the live-action Skyrim commercial is pretty epic:

You can get disarmed by some Draugr shouts. Have had it happen to me a couple times. Though I don't remember if that actually throws the weapon on the ground or not.

Weapon gets chucked, goes flying if they shout again.

Lost a highly-enchanted legendary-grade two-handed like this. Made trying to fight with only minor magics and a back-up weapon interesting.

Was a Drauger boss - he shouted at he, ripping my weapono ut of my hands, before I could find it one of his two phantom-copies picked it up - when I 'killed' it it dissapeared, taking my weapon with it.

Unhappy is likely a good description for my feelings on the matter. Beyond this kind of situation, the weapon should land on the ground... somewhere. If you can't find it, I'm not sure why, beyond this kind of scenario above.

Now that you mention it I recall that happening to me, but I didn't think the weapon the Drauger picked up was mine.......UGHHHHHHHHHHH

Why do none of my decisions turn out how I think they will in Bethesda games...

[spoiler] I finally get the gumption to join the Companions and gain some personal honor for my Nord rebel, and they're goddamn werewolves. Hircine's minions don't get into Sovngarde, so whats the point of the honor pursuits in the first place?! ><[/spoiler]

I had the same thoughts, Senn.

Luckily:

I kept werewolfism for one reason: the disease immunity. I don't actually use Beast Form because it's vastly inferior to my un-transformed self in raw damage. I wish Beast Form added to your stats, instead of subtracting a bunch.

Tempted to keep it for this reason as well, though I don't like having to give up the 'rested' bonus.

On an unrelated note, is there a bug that causes you to lose perks, or do you start at a higher level than I remember? I thought you got one perk per level, but I just counted, and I have:

4 perks available,
2 perks in smithing
9 in destruction
9 in conjuration
5 in enchanting
2 in speech

which should mean that I'm around level 32 or so.

I'm actually level 38, unless we start at 5 or something rather than 1.

I'm a little disappointed by lycanthropy.

I mean it's neat having the best oshit button in existence, though I haven't used it yet, and being immune to disease.
But I don't feel like a lycan. The only real side effect is not being given rested bonuses. Being totally in control, kind of lessens the awesomeness, if you ask me.

True.

Ironically, it's the Vampires that have the control issues.

A little backwards if you ask me.
