    My first ever screenshot at November 5, 2013 at 10:17 am, those days I had my old PC, just an Intel dual core with an Nvidia GeForce 9500 GT 256/512 MB of Vram, ddr3 and 4 GB of ram on system. I couldn't run my current Skyrim moded using that video card now days.


    As the years pass my Skyrim was evolving, I test and tried more and more mods, also I got a new PC, the one I'm currently using, an Intel i5, AMD ATI 7850 HD 1 GB Vram ddr5 and 12 GB of ram on system, when I took that video card I thought was enough, but then discoevered, on my heavy moded Skyrim I guess to run it properly its needed a video card of 4 GB ddr 5. During years I finally got my Skyrim fully optimal, no crashes or compatibility issues, just If I mod my game with something what adds a lot of memory usage as heavy HD or Overhaul mods (cool weather mods, lights, retextures, add many many objects, etc) my humble video card cant afford it, so I saved those mods for near future. 

    I thinke the most cool new evolved PC and way to play Skyrim will be to get Steam VR or some kind of Virtual reality device and play Skyrim, by the way reaching do that could be dangerous, I meant If someone who likes Elder Scrolls plays the game ever and ever (the games were released years ago) and still playing it, because I love immersion, using VR is the most immersive of all, so I could think the only thing could help to stop playing Skyrim or any other related Elder Scrolls will be the migthy crashes, lol, but If the game is fully optimal and never crashes or freezes, must be dangerous, really, lol

    Nice pic. I like how the sun reflecting on the water contrasts the rest of the picture.

    I have something perfect for this. Not really first screenshot, but I would like to think about this pic as something that started a good friendship with one cray cray member of this site. 

    Behold! Oblivion Aelberon! :D

    Oblivion. A beautiful game even today :p

    This was the first picture I ever uploaded to the site. I was running nude up the hill that leads to Solitude when the Courier approached me...who was also nude. It was a bit awkward. I didn't expect that anyone would be wearing the same outfit as me.

    Hahaha  matching sets. 

    Here's the earliest picture I can find from my laptop. 

    This was taken on the 8th of March, 2014. My earliest screenshot from my laptop. I'll have a search through my Desktop PC and see what's there. 

    Look at that forece grip of hers as she firmly holds that wood.

    I don't have my first screenshot, because I didn't play on the PC. But, my first playthrough was pretty memorable because it was suprisingly quick for my first time *that's what she said*, mostly because I just did the main quest and once I did that by then I had gotten the ropes of the game. So I then restarted it and played it as a perfectionist who completed everything and was a MAJOR Daedra worshipper. He had mental problems.

    So, I started playing this game in 2013 and I didn't figure out how to take screenies for a while. But when I did, one of my first was of my husband, Marcurio. Forgive him, he had been abducted by bandits and well, was just never the same after that. I suspect they did things to him. I'm not sure what things but things. 

    My first character was a Bosmer who had absolutely no really good skills. She may have been good at archery. May have been. I'm not sure. She wielded a warhammer in the beginning because it killed things very quickly and I didn't want to die. I spent the whole time sneaking around and then I don't know what weapons I used. I might have enchanted cause it was fun to do that sort of things. Had a mix of light and heavy armor. The mashup was daedric gauntlets, dragonscale armor, iron helmet, and possibly hide boots or it may well have been the Darkbrotherhood boots cause I killed Fastred and was super proud of it for a long time. Marcurio was in Dwarven gear for a while and possibly had a warhammer too. Then when the bandits did their things to Marcurio, I used Kharjo for a while until Serana foooooooked up everything. I didn't do Dawnguard for that first playthrough, cause I was just not willing to let Kharjo go. I then did Dragonborn and then the last quest was messed up. :) 

    Yay first playthrough!
