EINFÜHRUNG
Hello and welcome to the exciting world of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim! If you’ve always had a love for fantasy and role-playing games (RPG), there’s a good chance you’d dive headfirst into this game and never want to resurface. This beginner-friendly guide was written specifically for folks like you who are new to this majestic game or returning after a long break. The fascinating tale of the Dragonborn, the wide array of weapons, spells, and breathtaking landscapes are just a taste of what Skyrim has to offer.
WHAT IS ELDER SCROLLS V: SKYRIM?
Developed by Bethesda Game Studios, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is the fifth game in the long-celebrated Elder Scrolls series. Besides its definition as an open-world action role-playing video game, Skyrim is a fantasy journey set in a province named Skyrim, in a world known as Tamriel. Unlike most games, Skyrim doesn’t force you to follow a straight marching order; you’re given the freedom to explore the world as you wish. Laden with NPCs (Non-Player Characters) and hundreds of quests, Skyrim is all about immersing you in a rich narrative while offering you the freedom to be whatever you want to be: a warrior, mage, thief, or a mix of several classes.
WIE ES FUNKTIONIERT/WIE MAN ANFÄNGT
Starting your journey in Skyrim is straightforward. After creating your character with the opportunity to decide the race (which influences your abilities and skills), looks, and class, the game sets you on a journey as the Dragonborn – a mortal chosen by the gods with the power to fight dragons.
When you start, you’re a prisoner (like in other Elder Scrolls games), caught in a civil war between the Imperial Legion and the Stormcloak Rebellion. The story unfolds from this point. The gameplay mechanics involve combat, exploration, interaction with NPCs, questing, looting, crafting and more.
WAS SIE ZUM SPIELEN BRAUCHEN
To play Skyrim, all you need is a gaming device. The game is available on several platforms: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and even the Nintendo Switch. It also includes a VR version. Depending on your platform, you might need a controller (for consoles) or keyboard and mouse (for PC).
TIPPS FÜR ABSOLUTE ANFÄNGER
1. Don’t rush the storyline: Skyrim is an open-world game. So enjoy the world, explore, do side quests, and get lost! It will also level up your character organically.
2. Save often: Skyrim doesn’t auto-save often. So to avoid losing progress, make sure you save frequently.
3. Learn to sneak: Sneaking gives you an advantage in combat situations as well as in stealing items without being detected.
4. Be careful where you swing your weapon, especially in towns. Hitting civilians will get you in trouble.
5. Don’t ignore crafting: Learning to craft your items like weapons and armor can make a significant difference.
