Unsurprisingly, just some more Skyrim today. I have the Thieves Guild main quest on hold for now, been doing some of the Dwemer related stuff so I can train Smithing. Dwemer forging is honestly kind of annoying despite the fact that Dwemer Ingots are trivially easy to get. The main problem is that you get the ingots by smelting down Dwemer junk and all that shit is real fucking heavy. And a few random bits of Dwemer junk can't be smelted down either because fuck you. TBQH I just turned on god mode and turned off collision for getting all that shit out and I don't really regret it. I didn't use it to cheat myself out of anything, I just used it to skip a half-dozen annoying ass return trips. If I knew the console command for raising your weight limit I might have just used that but I honestly don't wanna have to remember what it was and then change it back after. I used it a lot the last time I played Fallout 4 (which I think was before this website, and also might be the last time I play FO4, period), but carry weight isn't nearly as bad in Skyrim because you're not looking looting every single random thing. As much as I like how FO4 makes you care about the random junk items it also makes carry weight just insanely tedious.
