BrianaDragon's Adventures in Gaming

Inigo and Enira outside their home, Elysium Estate. There’s a six person guest house out back for the followers, and a fantastic house for Enira and her future family.

My merry band in the dining hall after returning an artifact to the museum.

Meeko is beautiful, isn’t he? Unless you’re a bandit and he’s eating your face. Then you probably think he’s a white monster.

I love traveling with Inigo. He has such interesting things to say. He even told the curator “This room could do with a few more paintings you know.”

A shot from my first visit to the Dragonborn Gallery. I’m going to be a serious adventurer this time, and this will be a great way to have a record of all my travels and treasures.

The hot springs look so amazing with these graphics enhancements.

Inigo and Enira exploring some deep ruins. We look like hell in the mismatched armor, but it’s not like there’s a mall anywhere, and the bandits don’t have the best fashion sense.

My first death. I suppose maybe it was a bad idea to attack a giant when I was only level 4? I did get him in the end though. ;)

The countryside is gorgeous, and I had to get a shot of these wild horses on a misty day.

I’m a big fan of mountain climbing...

The view is great from up here...

Enira Woodsong early in her travels. Live Another Life let her start at a camp in the woods instead of that annoying cart scene through Helgen.

The guards are a lot less obnoxious with Guard dialogue Overhaul in effect.

Absorbing my first dragon soul!

Outside Riverwood at sunset. Vivid weathers makes everything look amazing.

I wanted a high-end restaurant with an experimental menu, and a romantic place for my Sims to pop the question to their beloved, so I combined the two. It’s an elegant, dimly lit Victorian style restaurant with lots of detail.

Sorry it took so long to get these up, but here are the shots of my One World Global Cuisine restaurant. I didn’t realize until after I’d finished it that I had WAY more tables than I needed, but I couldn’t bear to gut the second floor.

The theme of this restaurant is, as the name suggests, global cuisine. I have all the food from all the ethnic food stalls available on the menu here. I tried to make the decor look like bits and pieces from around the world.

It took most of the day, but I finally got the nearly 4000 old posts deleted and got most of my gaming content transferred over from Facebook. From now on, all of my gaming content will go here.

I’m not exactly a huge fan of Tumblr, but I know that a lot of Simmers use it, and I had the account sitting here just collecting reposts from my social media accounts, so I figured what the hell, right?

Now, bear in mind that I’ve never done SIMS storytelling before, and that’s what I’ll be doing here more than anything. I might not be very good at it, but hopefully I can develop a style and have some fun with it. I’m doing this mostly for myself, and my mom, who loves all things video game. I do hope that other people will like it though. I’m not going to go crazy, using Photoshop to edit and all that, but if you have any tips for doing good storytelling while keeping it simple, I’d appreciate hearing your ideas.

I have 9 screenshots from last week, and once I get back to playing, I’ll have more, and I’ll try to figure out how to arrange them and find a groove for doing this. I have a bunch of stuff up already, but I might do a bio and background on my current family soon, and then I’ll move forward from there. I suppose if anyone is going to follow me, they need to know whose story they’re reading!

Night shot. I'm really happy with how beautiful this place is.

Daytime

This is proof that some people rally DO live in glass houses!

In a freak accident, Nancy Landgraab has died! Dhalia and Camilla came to visit, and found this.

Nancy must have been in bad shape, she was stinking (see the green cloud on her) and really, who dies lighting their own fireplace? Maybe there was more going on, Geoffrey Landgraab IS a pretty crappy guy.

After The Reaper left, Dhalia and Camilla are still trying to put out the flames to prevent any more tragedy. It's odd that Nancy's husband and kids are milling about inside and not at all concerned with this.

Dhalia getting her zen on. Being a vampire witch uses a lot of energy!

Skellita getting love from Dhalia.

Dhalia and Hunter sharing their first kiss at the flea market.

So exciting! He agreed to be her boyfriend!
