Other than being set in the same fantasy universe, Skyrim doesn't have a whole heck of a lot to do with the previous iterations. Maybe some second-hand references to Martin Septim in a book, but zip, nada, zilch regarding the previous main character. Same with the Morrowind - Oblivion transition, some rumours about the Nevarrine but nothing solid.

I was freaked out the other day when I was running around collecting upgrades and I discovered a rock bearing the words "Team Brannen".

I thought you had put some sort of curse on me or something until I realized that it was just a clever way of announcing who held the top spot on the leaderboard.

Also, killing the golden tiger with a bow and arrow was panic inducing.

Unless it's a game with a heavy emphasis on story, I can deal with missing an entry or two in the series.

Hell, I didn't miss a beat in Witcher 2 and that was without playing the original.

If the stand alone experience is solid, I don't mind missing on a few plot details. Generally it is summarized somewhere in a menu or cutscene anyway.

I'm your head. Also, I am on your rocks. Did you beat my scores?

only played one challenge, I was a little shy of your score.

I think I've conceded to the fact that I won't be topping many of your scores though.

Honestly, once you learn some takedown skills the challenges become much easier. In the first one I ran around using takedowns one at a time but after I added some skills I did the first one again and was throwing knives and using pistol takedowns to inflate the score so high.

As much as I am enjoying this game, I am getting tired of the story. How many times will this bastard die and come back to life? Getting old.

If I download the game with Uplay, can I still play with people on Steam?

Anyone else have an issue with a new assault rifle not showing up? I just finished a part and now there's a yellow exclamation point next to my assault rifles but I see no new gun.

It probably just means the gun is now free and you own it. New guns don't appear unless they are special guns you unlock, I think.

Hmm, sometimes you can unlock things you already have a version of. Turrets and other things also show up the first time you use them.

I'm talking about in the shop. It says there's a new item and I think it's the P416 rifle that the soldiers in yellow had, but I had it in my inventory from a dead body when I went to the shop, so I'm wondering if that somehow glitched it out of the shop.

I wish y'all could've seen me last night. I was a base taking, tower climbing, stealth assassin motherfricker. And I finally found some frickin boars so I can carry more bullets. Got the shite scared out of me by a croc

Now that I have the Recurve bow, I use it almost exclusively.

Please tell me where to find boars. I know it's probably random, but I've been hunting those bastards forever. No shortage of tigers on this island.

If you zoom in on the map, it will show a white figure in the shape of an animal in that area meaning that is what kind of animal hangs out there.
