  I&apos;ll never forget my very first playthrough on the PS3 going to a Giant camp, thinking I could defeat it with the crap iron sword. That&apos;s when I discovered the Skyrim space program.

  As someone with 1000+ hours in Skyrim across multiple consoles and pcs, I always enjoy a good beginners guide.

  I just bought this game on Steam for $4 a couple weeks ago. I’ve been playing it and find it enjoyable, although I have no idea what I’m doing half the time. Maybe being 60 doesn’t help but it’s an amazing game. Looking forward to the exploration. I think this video will help a lot.

  Are you kidding me? The first thing I did when I got to Riwerwood for the first time was kill a chicken thinking &quot;whatever, I just killed a deer running into the village, what could possibly go wrong?&quot; Well, didn&apos;t even get a chance to blink and there I was laying dead. 😂

  2 tips from me.<br><br>- Play the game naturally for your first time (don&apos;t look at loot location videos etc)<br><br>- some books will give you a level increase and finding them in bookshelves or mixed in with other books can be a chore. However, these books are worth more money (50+ gold) so just hover over the books and only look for the valuable ones

  1) It doesn&apos;t matter who you escape Helgen with, you can still join either the Imperials or the Stormcloaks.<br>1a) That said, Hadvar&apos;s uncle is the Riverwood smith, so getting on his good side lets you take most of the equipment and bars around his forge, which makes for a decent head start.<br><br>2) Magic Resistance doesn&apos;t just protect you from fire/frost/shock spells from Mages, but enchantments on weapons, poisons, and even dragon shouts and breath attacks. It does cap at 85%. though that will still do a lot of the heavy lifting.<br><br>Bretons start with 25% MR. The Agent of Mara perk grants you 15%, rewarded from a quest started in Riften&apos;s chapel. The Lord Stone gives you 25% (and 50 armour), found East of Morthal. The Alteration skill tree offers three levels of perk at skill level 30/50/70, each worth 10%. (Which all adds up to 95% - you only need to take 2/3 levels of the Alteration tree perk with this setup)
