So I started this a few days ago, and found out there are a few expansion packs. This is the first of this kind of game I've ever gotten into and I want to know if I need to get these add-ons and start over before I get too deep into the game? Everyone says they are worth getting, but I don't want to have to replay the entire game just for the expansion packs...please pardon my ignorance.

The only one worth getting is The Shivering Isles. It can easily add another 15-20 hours of gameplay. It's completely seperate from the main storyline so you can do it anytime. I would recommend doing it before you get too far though because there are some awesome items that you can't find in the normal game that will help you out a lot. DawnFang/DuskFang is easily the best sword in the game, and you can also find some really good armor and other items."Any dog under 50lbs is a cat and cats are pointless." - Ron Swanson -
Knights of the Nine is the only other one I'd even consider getting. Takes a few hours to beat, but all in all, nothing special."Any dog under 50lbs is a cat and cats are pointless." - Ron SwansonComment

I hope you have a lot of time to dedicate to that game. You can spend hours on that game and not accomplish much.Originally posted by JesterFORGTN SOLD1ER - xbox gamerOriginally posted by DennyComment

Yeah I've been into it for about 9 hours so far, and I believe I'm like 10% done or something(based on achievements).Originally posted by motoman View PostComment

I love that game but man can you get side tracked!
You'll be out looking for some root or plant or something and stumble across a cave, sweet I'll just check this out real quick. Go inside and get lost wandering around for an hour, find a man trapped in the cave who needs you to get something that should be easy to find and bring it back, ok sure I'll just do that real quick. Get to town to retrieve key and meet a man who only needs a small favor, ok sure I'll do that real quick. Meanwhile it's been 3 days and you haven't gotten anything done, lol.Originally posted by Nash B.Comment

Haha I find myself doing this on almost EVERY quest. Ironically, this is the reason I always stop playing Fallout 3 and New Vegas when I try to play them. Not quite linear enough for me, but for whatever reason, this one caught my attention.Originally posted by Wicked98Snake View PostComment

The game is very enveloping. Just make good use of quick traveling and your map and it's not too bad. Only thing that frustrates me is all the loading going in and out of places.Originally posted by kanetrain View Post"Any dog under 50lbs is a cat and cats are pointless." - Ron SwansonComment

Question... I "accidentally" killed a guard, and now everyone is trying to kill me, how do I get back in good standings with the castle guard????? I don't want to be a bad guy!!! AND HOW DO I GET MORE LOCKPICKS?!?!?!?! Is there a cheat code or something I can use to give me unlimited lockpicks? Because I suck so bad at picking locks I can't open any chests or doors or anything.Originally posted by jdgregory84 View PostComment

You're gonna have to pay your fine. If you have any stolen items, put them in a chest you can access later or the guards will confiscate them after you pay your fine. As far as lockpicks go, you need to join the thieves guild. You do that by giving one of the hobos in the capital some money. They should give you a letter telling you to be somewhere at midnight or something. You'll meet a black dude, and after you complete the quest (extremely short), you'll be a member of the guild. You can buy lockpicks from that black guy. Pick locks is a bitch at times, but for easy lock, just keep knocking the pins up. You'll sometimes they'll go up super slow. Just hit whatever button you need to when they're all the way at the top when they go up slow.Originally posted by kanetrain View Post"Any dog under 50lbs is a cat and cats are pointless." - Ron SwansonComment

Ok so should I just go to the prison and talk to them? Ohhhh ok I already met the guy at midnight, but I didn't join the guild. I guess I'll have to meet him again. Picking locks is so frustrating... before I ever tried to pick one I had somewhere near 30 lockpicks, then I tried to pick an "Easy" lock and used ALL OF THEM and still didn't open the damn thing.Originally posted by jdgregory84 View PostComment

If your having troublw picking locks you can always save before you do it and then re-load the game if you break a bunch of picks. It might take extra time but if that doesn't bother you you could theoretically go throught the game with only one lock pick. Also if there is a quest in the game where the reward is a skeleton key that can't be broken. I can't remember if it's from the thieves guild or what, I seem to remember it having to do with a shrine or something?Originally posted by Nash B.Comment

Skeleton key you say..... google here I come.Comment

This is some info I found on it
You have to complete Nocturnal's Daedric quest. You have to be at least level 10 to start though.
Nocturnal's Shrine is located northeast of Leyawiin, and you can see where it is exactly on this map:
Here is a link to website that has a lot of info for the game
