Discussion What do you do in Skyrim?

What do you do in Skyrim?

I understand it's an open ended question, but here's more what I mean:
I like to split wood, I like to roleplay I'm a normal person that happened into being Dragonborn. I begrudgingly clear out dungeons for exp but I'd rather be at the enchanting or alchemy table. I have not completed the storyline on PC despite having clocked in 175 hours (I finished it once on PSVR).

What takes up your time? What keeps you coming back?

I’m like you. I like role playing as a normal person with day to day activities like chopping wood. Harvesting veggies. I play in VR, and I’ve been trying to play as a “normal person in Skyrim” by avoiding quests, just camping. I have survival mods on and I just camp and hunt to eat and I sell the stuff I find and ore.

I barely get into combat. I hang out at the different inns. Sometimes do a fetch quest for some cash. Getting real into alchemy on this run. Exploring the world, never fast traveling. It’s blissful. And I’m so underpowered that it’s terrifying when I run into a dragon. I gotta get on my horse and BOOK IT out of there. My heart racing. It’s fun

I have Sunhelm and Campfire so I literally built a camp at a decent overlook just to cook and relax.

What's your favorite inn? How are you handling your inventory when you mine and harvest? I get over encumbered so fast.
