GA: Companions Questline Completed, FINALLY!

21 November, 201225 July, 2024 MGAcemanGeek

YES! Finally, after literally hundreds of hours, I’m not sure why or how, but the Silver Hand Leader was in Redoran’s Retreat after oh so long and so I managed to ‘assassinate’ her which will now allow me to complete the Companions questline. This means so much to me, I never thought I would be able to complete it without starting a new game, as soon as I saw that the person was actually there and not just an arrow pointing to the ground, I was in total disbelief and…

GA: Sorry Sven, It's Not You…

…Well, it kind of is. I had to complete a task that I had started a couple of hundred hours ago in the game, Boethiah’s Calling which is the one where you need to have someone follow you, tell them to touch a pole (oo-er missus) and with a specific blade, sacrifice them.

It seems LEGO is becoming the new Rule 34; if it exists, there’s a LEGO version of it. The latest and possibly greatest thing to be given the plastic block treatment is Skyrim, I’m not sure how they put them together as they’re non-standard kits, but made up by the person or artist out of whatever LEGO they happen to have at hand.

It’s Sunday, you do nothing all day except cook dinner and go to church (or other religious building in which you pray) and after that, you wonder what else there is to pass the time away. Something different that’s beyond the realms of casual entertainment, you’re feeling creative and find yourself in abundance of epic meaty goodness…
