Fair enough.

I like to pretend to be Ahnuld.

Me too. My character looks just like him.

How does that work when you talk to him? Two Ahnulds?

So I've been watching people play Skyrim a bit. Is the whole game brown throughout?

No. There's reds, greens, yellows... pretty much all the colors of the rainbow.  Hell, there are rainbows themselves! 

Is there a lot of brown, as in medieval drab colors?  Yes.  Clothing and towns tend not to be colorful at all.

Anyone regularly playing this at the moment?  I was looking at Steam for the first time in quite a while today and noticed the Steam Workshop thing was live and rolling with a lot of mods.  How's that working out?  Does it automatically update mods and such for you?

I also noticed pretty much all the mods I had been using when I was playing this are on there, so I just went ahead and started a clean install.

Ya they should all auto update you just have to wait at the screen before you actually go into playing a a while depending on how many mods you have. I have 26 mods and it takes about 1 min for the check to go through and see if there are any updates to be had. In stall took like 5 or so minutes.

I'm a little skeptical about using Steam Workshop -- I'm a little paranoid that it'll make an auto-update that'll break my save game somehow.  I prefer to do it manually & be able to put the old esp back in if something slips sideways on me...

Right on.  I went through and got the 50 or so mods I had before.   Install was pretty quick, but it's good to know it'll just check them from now on instead of being weird and reinstalling them every time.

I'm willing to put up with it for the convenience and the fact that I don't have to go to Nexus anymore.

Which mods are you guys using?

[C.C.R.]

Mostly a bunch of CBBE body/ clothing/ armor mods, plus a few house mods that I'm sifting through.  Jaysus Swords, too...

I have a very irritating bug that persists even after uninstall/reinstall via Steam and turning off all the mods I have:

When I activate my torch, sometimes my dude comes to a complete stop and can't move except to jump, which makes him able to move around again.  When I put the torch away, it just disappears from my hand, which just stays sticking out in front of me until I, again, jump.
