Elder Scrolls V Skyrim2 — Finally I can go kill some dragons.

The next game of the excellent Bethesda Elder Scrolls series has been finally released to the public. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim should now be available worldwide in shops from today.

These are the known shouts found so far in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. A shout is draconic language which has the powers of dragons. You can learn these powers by finding dragon tongue words on word walls. I will add more when I find them.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Achievements

Elder Scrolls V Skyrim22 — Kill something and get rewarded.

This is the achievement list for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. These achievements are the same for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The PC version doesn’t have any achievements so you will have to pretend to get them. They are all mostly story related or faction related and will be acquired as you play normally such as “Unbound” (10 G) and “With Friends Like These…” (10 G). However some are more optional like getting “Married” (10 G). I like when games have achievements that are story related and fit how you might play the game naturally, similar to the Oblivion achievements.

Judge for yourself in the screenshots below.
