Yes. To both of those.

I've been trying to get my mods somewhat balanced, but heavy armor is still nerfed when fighting dragons (with Dragon Combat Overhaul and Deadly Dragons). Magic "works" as long as you got rock big enough to hide behind, but melee is just suicidal. Or am I doing it wrong? Any tips on dragon hunting?

So, for the last week I've been working in this new restaurant filling in for sudden sickness of one of their staff and today was the last day, since his replacement came. Pretty girl, fresh out of school, who NEVER STOPS TALKING so I heard all about her new car and her makeup and boyfriends hairy back and how she doesn't "believe allergies are real"  ???

Well, that's one place where I'll never go to eat.

You can walk down any aisle and notice when you're in the romance section because all the book spines are pastel and any cover you see features a shirtless guy on the deck of a ship.
I don't think teens will want their book covers to look like their mothers porn romance books... need to be more edgy.

Why do I get the feeling "Community Monsters" will tag team on any stray adventurers and turn this into desperate game of survival for them? Or maybe I'm just hoping...

Where I come from, they put all of those on a shelf labeled "Paranormal Romance" and no-one has to look at them if they don't want to. This means that I see the normal throughput of fantasy, there's just a whole new genre with (thankfully) a whole new set of writers off to one side.
My library puts them at one end of "Fantasy" shelf, right next to Forgotten Realms and Dragon Lance novels, while I browse the other end where they keep stuff like A Song of Ice and Fire. I have witnessed some awkward meetings there.

I don't understand why people claim librarians don't have sense of humor...

So I'm going to be homeless again. I failed my classes and lost the stipend from my parents, and all because of stupid social anxiety. I don't have a laptop, so working on my game while I'm on the street is out of the question. Really, nothing is going the way it needs to, and I pretty much feel like killing myself every day. I don't know what to do, since getting a job would require me to get over my social anxiety for longer periods than going to classes did, and getting a job that lets me work from home requires time a qualifications I don't have. I just can't seem to do anything right...

Fucking dragons
Fucking forest dragons
Fucking forest dragons and their poison breath
Fucking forest dragons and their invisible poison breath
Fucking forest dragons and their invisible poison breath that bypasses magic resistance

Actually, forest dragons aren't that bad. When you are mage in heavy armor it's the lightning breathing dragons that fuck your game up, preventing you from using magic from safe distance and forcing you to try and bash it's skull in with steel mace. While said dragon can toss you over building with flick of it's tail. When I buy proudspire manor I will have that dragons skull on my wall.

Y'know what's a very satisfying combination of mods? Royal Bloodlines, Better Vampires, Dragon Combat Overhaul and Deadly Dragons.

Y'know why?

Vampire Lord/Dragon dogfight in midair, and you don't even have to wait for them to land when you kill them! And you're at your most resistant to dragonfire when you're at your strongest, with blood-drinking!
This, with a Dunmer. Also enchanting goodies that give you magicka absortion so you can recharge yourself from dragons breath attack. Unless it's lightning.

More reasons to never visit the "Land of the Free". I would get shot on sight.

Putin confirmed for Suomenusko Reconstructionist.
Now don't go giving him any ideas. Putin putting up his own religion or cult would be too... Stalin like.

One that isn't Bethesda, of course, since Bethesda doesn't know how to subtlety.
Maybe it is. Maybe the Dwemer wiped themselves out trying to make the QEG, and The Elder Scrolls VI: Skydaggerblivimorrowrena centers around your quest to complete their work.

We know exactly how and why they disappeared, silly! It was answered outright in Morrowind!
That was all Dagoth Ur feeding you lies.
In reality dwemer chimmed themselves to Masser and Secunda, and took over the moon colonies. In TESVI they will launch invasion of all of Tamriel with steampunkish airships airdropping dwemer spheres armed with tesla rods in and around cities. Of course, it won't be made by Bethesda.

This... is relevant to my interests. I offer my moral support, since I can't code for shit.
