User blog comment:The Joker~/How can I rekindle my interest in Skyrim?/@comment-1992639-20121129013037

What I do is roleplay. I use Creation Kit for alternate outcomes of quests. People who should have died in the stock quests now live, or even turned their lives around (such as Rigel Strong-Arm, who found friendship and a nicer home now with the companions). What happened so far this month:


 * Anska moved to the College to study her scroll further. In the evening when it's dark she moves to the inn to eat and sleep.


 * My vampire friend, who was saved from a cage in Fellglow Keep helps Anska study, walking along with her to the inn and back to the college.


 * Lydia and Iona once a month visit my Falkreath for a small week. Sometimes I run into them on the road for that reason, after which I turn around and walk back with them slowly, the 4 of us (follow + them 2) fighting off foes before we're back at night.
