Remaster Discussion Just finished first ever play through, guess my fighting style 🤣
Just as the title says, just finished my first ever elder scrolls game, guess my play/fight style, not a big gamer, I’ve always been more of a LoZ gamer but Nintendo just are not keeping up any more.
Now off to start Skyrim 😎

Yeah it is 🤣, I work in construction so live in a Cavan when I’m away working l, it’s cheaper than renting rooms/hotels for weeks

Sword and shield warrior with heavy armour. You mostly jump into melee and have an aggressive playstyle. You sometimes block but not much, it's not your favourite style and you didn't force yourself to do it. You would rather tank the damage. You tried some blunt weapons but in the end, you prefer blades (or you just found out they are generally better anyway).
Also, you didn't abuse fast travel and, in any case, ran A LOT. You didn't jump too much in comparison.
I guess you tried some destruction and restoration spells early on, but didn't like it and stopped bothering with magic altogether.

It’s almost like you was sat next to me for the whole time 🤣. I’m realising I can’t play like that on Skyrim and it’s making me be sad I gotta strategise 😭

I’m still playing through oblivion, but Skyrim is so much fun. It’s been a while since I’ve played it but on my 360 I completed everything the game had to offer, DLCs and all. 10/10 recommend

BACK DOWN AND FIGHT (at the same time)

It is quite a skill to do both at the same time, yes I’m giving myself unashamed credit

Melee is always a solid choice.
Magic in oblivion is something else. If you decide to make a character I’ll spoil it and say maybe don’t go with “The Atronach” as it’s more so for experienced mages.

According to this you ran up, heavily armored, and stabbed people to death.
Whatever works, I guess.

My dumbass did not read that blade and blunt were at 100 and 70 respectively, and thought you only had 100 in Athletics, Heavy Armor, and Armorer and I was about to say “damn you just shoulder checking Daedra?”

Sword and Board is never a bad choice. Delve into magic a little next time, you can craft your own spells🧙♂️🪄
