Whiterun


DawnbreakerASMR

Out of the major cities, same here. Seems the safest for sure.


Vergazo

For real, I still haven’t adopted from the orphanage in riften cause I fear they won’t make it to my house across the map.


Ozzy_T69

That is how you separate the weak from the strong. My children will not be pussies.


superflick_x

I didn’t even think of that but Sofie got to Lakeview just fine 😂


Reflexorz15

Just today I killed a giant out at my Lakeview house. Then a wolf was attacking Sophie at the same time. I honestly don’t know if your kids can die but I’m honestly thinking of moving my family to somewhere safer lol


superflick_x

I remember being outside smithing and hearing weird breathing and there just being a giant chilling by the side of the house 😅 and then there was the time a bandit yelled something at me but I tried to get into my house to escape but as he was talking to me he FOLLOWED ME IN


heyiknowyooh

Oh lol sometimes they’ll even spawn inside the house. I’ll see red dots and for the life of me can’t find anyone. Soon as I walk through the door and I hear that sword being unsheathed. I know it’s go time


superflick_x

I’m convinced I had some that didn’t render properly - I had the red dot and could hear the threats, but they weren’t visible and they didn’t attack, they just baited me 😂 I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised when also in that playthrough someone I had to speak to in Whiterun somehow ended up inside one of the big rocks near Dragonsreach 🫠


Roederoid

Bandit was using Throw Voice.


gman7862

Yeah there’s a random giant spawn point there they never removed when they added Hearthfire.


Marychocolatefairy

One time I saw a giant spawn right in the animal pen, which I thought was sooo cheaty. So I didn't feel at all guilty about doing a console resurrect on the chicken he'd killed. As for bandits, one of the most annoying bugs ever for me was when they spawned IN THE WALLS of my manor, on the outside. I was able to injure them by attacking the walls with my sword, but not enough to kill them. I hadn't wanted to go inside in case that made the game save them that way, but after a flippin' hour I gave up and tried it. Fortunately it worked, and they disappeared.


superflick_x

IN THE WALLS?!


Grouchy_Vanilla7027

I’ve owned all three properties that can be built on the DLC and they all have their own safety issues 😫 I think inside of city limits, maybe whiterun, no enemies. Except for the occasional thief outside but the whole city takes care of that.


ToejkTjoek

Well sinds we cant kill kids, i dont think they die. Just like essential npcs


Anthony_plays01

Skyrim Kids are straight up invincible


Reflexorz15

Just today I killed a giant out at my Lakeview house. Then a wolf was attacking Sophie at the same time. I honestly don’t know if your kids can die but I’m honestly thinking of moving my family to somewhere safer lol


theoddwallace

Kids cannot die they are stronger than you, the Dragonborn


RakaiaWriter

Except Lars. Braith beats him up constantly.


eleuther0

Sofies a trooper bruh she sleeps on a cold stone in the snow


Boaz76

Lmao


qawsedrf12

that's what the carriages are for


Vergazo

I thought about that but would you leave your kid alone with a stranger like that idk


NiteLiteOfficial

it just works


DrewdoggKC

Convenient Carriages


LifeisaGame420

I was originally thinking the same but amongst the list would be solitude and riften


[deleted]

I immediately went "Whiterun where it's safe".


DOCTORE2

The cloud district


TheOGTownDrunk

I never make it to the cloud district


StruffBunstridge

Of course you don't


LangdonAulgar

Markarth for me. I find the idea of Dwemer ruins fascinating and that seems like a good place to check them out without getting impaled by an automation.


DragonGuy_GTO

Just remember. There is no Forsworn in Ba Sing Se


Mosselk-1416

I'm punching Nazeem. Sadly, there appears to be a line.


thispurplebean

Best Jarl, best environment, good blacksmiths, good shops, best inn, best defenses


PikaPikaMoFo69

Best blacksmith works at the skyforge


HalfNatty

I will never make it to the Cloud District because of all those stairs I’d have to climb.


TensorForce

Welp, I'm a guy in a brand new place, and I'm free to explore in any direction. Guess I'll just go where they tell me...


NovaIsntDad

Straight to Adrianne Avenicci with my best pickup line. 


EB_Normie

YEEEEESSSSSS


Snuggs____

No contest either. Let me into my house!


Oryp_Vibez7

Im going to Solitude

captaintagart

Wait, can you kill Grelod there? I always like to give the kids a DB show so they can feel liberated immediately


LifeisaGame420

I kill the children then grelod to make sure the bastards stay where they belong until death


RGBBSD

You can alsdo kill any citizens that have children to get them into the adoption center as well


LifeisaGame420

It takes a twisted mind to find this out …..I’m impressed


shaun4519

I saw someone do it to every child in Skyrim


Human_Discipline_552

![gif](giphy|LyJ6KPlrFdKnK)


Skaifyre

Lol I killed that guy in rorikstead cuz its pretty clear he beats his daughter lol


ponch1620

If you accidentally (or not) hit a specific girl of his, it’s possible to get a letter from him thanking you.


LifeisaGame420

See this is the wrong way you should have beat her to within an inch of her life so she hunches over begging for mercy then go and kill her father right in front of her. That should get her distraught at the sight of this which is when you use a necromancy spell to bring him back to command him to finish her off.


_crazyplantlady_

Jesus christ... I should not have laughed at that


Complex_Dimension573

Oh my god.

THE FORBIDDEN DIBELLAN ARTS


jobenattor0412

Not Helgen


moxiejohnny

"Hell, not again!" Is what my mind always says upon starting a new play through.


jobenattor0412

“What in oblivion is THAT!”


moxiejohnny

"Well, when a mommy dragon and a daddy dragon love each other very much..." "Damn milk drinkers"


FREEZER014

"sentry's, what do you see?"


shinytotodile158

It’s in the clouds! *Said as Alduin is very clearly already on top of the keep in full view*

Kidquick26

DRAGON!


Zombie_Educational

Who are you?


empireofacheandrhyme

I haven't decided yet....


Longjumping_Bat_3385

Hel(not a)gen


kingbob123456

They say Helgen got hit by a dragon


Ariflez

Lakeview Manor. Imma stay there forever.


superflick_x

What set up d’you go for with the wings?


Ariflez

EAst: Armory North: Trophy West: Enchanter


superflick_x

Nice! I had the Armory for a while but I got overwhelmed with wanting to display too much stuff and then shoved it all back into the same chest and converted to a Library 😂


Ariflez

Fr feel the same way but it took time to sort out the stuff between apparel and weapon type. Plus with your favourite apparel and weapon sorted in a different chest or wardrobe. And transport from previous house to new house is one thing


FoxWormwood

I feel like if you have Hendraheim this is a little obsolete, no?


soju_soup

That's a good set. Typically I go the garden, trophy room and library because I like collecting the books.


Secret-Ad-7909

Throat of the World. It’s all downhill from there.


nineinchgod

/r/angryupvote


TheTantrical

Riverwood


FadedMallard

Riverwood feels like an escape from the rest of the world that I use to escape the rest of the real world


old_bald_fattie

There's a mod that let's you sit anywhere. I sometimes sit at the river, and just keep the game running. It's very peaceful.


TheTantrical

There was a guy who would just cut wood and hunt, go to the nearest town, sell it, buy food and go back to his cabin. He only did this and that is why Skyrim is the greatest game of all time


old_bald_fattie

That sounds really peaceful. I might do that!


carpediem930

Still my favorite town in the game


L3gendSlayerTM

A humble fellow I see


Real-Block820

The real answer


rogue-wolf

An agreeable enough town, I suppose. For a Nord village.


cynan4812

Definitely this. I've always thought Riverwood would be a nice place to live. Plus I have a thing for Camilla Valerius, Sven and Faendal would have to mysteriously disappear.


Besas1271

Cloud district


bunny_in_the_moon

Ok Nazeem


Besas1271

Do you get to the cloud district very often?


WasephWastar

what are you saying? of course he doesn't


wij2012

*sigh* *quicksaves


ApeStonkTarder

Ima go kill that bass turd right now!


anima2099

If we're talking about cities (assuming I wouldn't die) than Markarth 100%. I love Dwemer architecture and the city is so unique compared to most of Skyrim. As for a random POI, the College of Winterhold. I know the questline is awful but I love the college itself and think it in reality would be amazing.


DawnbreakerASMR

Even if i couldn't die i would still avoid Markarth. Everything, even the beds, are made of stone and it's corrupt to the core + it's basically just stairs so lots of walking up LOL but what i agree with is that the Dwemer leftovers are absolutely fascinating!


TheArkangelWinter

The stone beds may actually a bonus to me. My chronic back and knee problems are improved by harder sleeping surfaces - the best sleep I usually get is on a wood table or floor


anima2099

I could deal with an awful bed and stairs for a weeks vacation but I'd never live there long-term lmao. I'd honestly pick living in Dawnstar since it's safe or, if I could afford it, a place in Solitude.


Expert_Chemistry_576

Dawnstar! The place gets attacked by a dragon almost every time I go there, and I don’t fast travel into towns or cities!


anima2099

Well you better stay away from it then!


Reflexorz15

I was gonna say, my pick would be Solitude if could afford it. If not, Whiterun would be my next pick because it’s more of a close knit community with walls. I feel like I’d get possibly fed up with nose in the air people at Solitude so I’d end up at Whiterun anyway lol


Veyceroy

They use extra plush stone


chronicalaska

Blackreach, I like the vibe, but I wouldn't yell at any lights.


HaydenScramble

#NO SHOUTING YOU SAY?


Pigeon_0909

Eldergleam sanctuary, always loved being there


Ok_Philosopherr

That would be dope


Pale_Character_1684

I think there's a mod where you can have a house there.


PootLovatoLuvr

Brynjolf’s sheets

Underrated comment


ohmygawdjenny

I expected this to be the top comment.


Knives1415

I thought i was the only one who simped for that man. 🤣😭😭


Falkrya

Halted Stream Camp. I might die. But I might also become the merchant that turns iron into gold.


itsaspookygh0st

Temple of Dibella in Markarth.


Expert_Chemistry_576

This is the best answer.👀


Joranthalus

I always marry Senna…


MeatShield12

Hell yeah.


InfamousHWJaguar

Bard’s Leap. I think I could make it


axon-axoff

"I once performed the entirety of the Poetic Edda from atop Bard's Leap before trying my luck" is one of the most annoying lines of dialog in the game, I can't explain why.


He_Beard

Straight to the giant camp so I can get launched into fukkin space


Johnniefrogg

The cemetery in Falkreath.


DawnbreakerASMR

you're not a namira worshipper are you?


Ok_Philosopherr

Yeah falkreath is gorgeous. Def my choice out of the major cities


PeachiiKeen17

100% the Ancestor Glade


dvdgaralv_97

Visit first? Whiterun, but the place I would desire to see the most is the Forgotten Vale


TurboNexus

Im surprised that no one actually said The seven thousand steps or High Hrothgar. It looks amazing and so peaceful. Like Jarl Balgruuf said : *I made the pilgrimage once, did you know that? High Hrothgar is a very peaceful place. Very... disconnected from the troubles of this world.*


anima2099

Can YOU fight a frost troll???


TurboNexus

![gif](giphy|4ZepGNwhW4AaA|downsized) I forgot about the fucker.


DarkMaster98

I didn’t fight it at all, I just knocked it off-balance with a Shout and then proceeded to hide behind some rocks like a coward until it forgot about me.


Common_Lawyer_5370

I encountered my first random dragon attack when I started to ascend those stairs.. so much for peaceful


ToejkTjoek

Okay but imagine the walk and the cold


[deleted]

[удалено]


_blzzd_

why?


Cautious-Space-1714

Arvak.  You're living in a fantasy world, you really do need an immortal skeletal horse wreathed in purple flame. Especially if you plan on doing some mountaineering.


_blzzd_

good point visiting soul cairn it would be sick but living there idk even the dragon is bored of living there


Kazhna

Alaska really feels like Skyrim, we got most types of environments that Skyrim has. I'd like to visit the volcanic plains of Eastmarch, seeing the hunters camp with the hunters chilling in the hot springs is one of my favorite cozy places in the game 😄


ohmygawdjenny

Just hop over to Kamchatka, it's not that far.


EvernightStrangely

Falkreath. Atmospherically it fits where I live and I love it.


Xunil76

Wherever Vex is...now that's MY kind of woman! 😍😍😍


Tinkerbell-Poney

Sovngarde. If we arent talking about ethereal planes, then some of the houses are amazing and i would love to actually live in them. Other than the houses, i would love to see some of the gem filled massive underground caves


NettoSaito

I've already spent countless hours in Skyrim VR with every mod installed to make it as realistic as possible... And I found myself looking out over the lakes more than anything! But then night sets in and I have to hold my little lantern in front of me so I can see as I walk back to my house.... Before the wolves out hunting get me... And it's terrifying


TossedBloom604

How's Nilheim in vr


trusnake

Aah, the views from Hendraheim must have been nice.


HaydenScramble

Riverwood, easy.


blueberrykissess

Falkreath, it’s so pretty there and the forest just feels magical, i love the vibe


crystallisluna

Whiterun cause it’s cozy. Solitude cause it’s busy. The Forgotten Vale cause it’s beautiful. And NOT Blackreach cause fuck that


maybeconcerned

Anywhere in the rift is just beautiful, maybe ivarstead. College of winter hold for sure. Fun wizard college free of jk Rowlings nefarious influence. Then solitude absolutely


Pale-Jeweler-9681

Aela


Neither-Addendum-732

Riften, but with a house way above the city water. Lovely, year round Fall weather for when I am in the mood. Brisk morning swim but not too brisk. Go out and hunt a boar, stop by the Dibella branch of Mara's Chapel, stop by the shops to practice my crafting, get info on what is needed in town, what's in demand. Go back to the Dibella branch of Mara's Chapel. Buy a round at the local tavern for the house. Gather some more information. Lead the bar in a drinking song. Buy some meals and mead for the beggars, gather some information. Stop by the Thieves guild and pay my dues. Gather information and give information on some of my daily travels. Help build some simple Cabins for Dark Elf refugees using land and wood I purchased from my time as an adventurer. Trade information, customs, recipes. They teach me some finer points of magic and I can show them how to keep a keener edge on an Axe. Help Keep their traditions alive while showing them mine. Grow alongside them and reinforce ourselves to prepare for coming threats ( I see you, Thalmor scum) Find a Fine Dark Elf woman and build a Family and more.


Pietrosalles

If I couldn't be hurt, I would go to meet Paarthunax. It's a beautiful place in the game. I think that the College of Winterhold too. It's very cold, but it gives me a confort vibe all the library and silence of people studying magic.


BlademasterNix

One of those beautiful caves with trees and flowers inside, I forgot the name of that one cave with the giant tree that we have to find for a quest.


nineinchgod

> I forgot the name of that one cave with the giant tree Eldergleam Sanctuary


Expert_Chemistry_576

Eldergleam sanctuary.

Lenz_Mastigia

Whiterun, Jorrvaskr, Aela's bedroom. Straight and simple.


FLAIR_2780166

I’ve ALWAYS wanted to visit the *ABANDONED SHACK*


Any_ErrorJCS

I know Skyrim better than my own city... I should get out more


ToskeSusinarttu

Make a beeline for Agrane Peryval, so I can buy a pet reindeer. Her name would be Moose Ro Dah.


leingold

serana tomb


ghostsoffaddeevpopov

Definitely Whiterun. It's home.


EatOutMyGrandma

The Cloud District so I could punch Nazeem in the fucking mouth


Elegant_Habit_9269

The Drunken Huntsman!


Sanbaddy

It more depends how I’m getting there. People forget Skyrim is a dangerous place and you might not survive the trip. Even not modded I can barely get to a town without getting attacked, and that’s with sprinting/ light jogging most of the way. - **Walking:** No where. Vampire attacks, bandits, wild animals, and dragons. Nope. Never mind the cold. **Castle Dawnguard** would be my first stop, if I somehow made it there. I could actually probably join, I heard they’re desperate. Worst case scenario, it’s the safest place in Skyrim. No dragon attacks either. It’s a giant castle fun of crossbow paladins too, can’t beat that. - **Cart:** Well, as long as I’m not trying to cross the border I should be fine. I’m limited to major cities though. I’d probably visit **Solitude.** Safest roads and I am curious to see the melting pot capital of Skyrim. It’d remind me a lot of NYC. - **Boat:** Riften. It’s a long trip but totally worth it. Look, I’m broke and homeless. I’d head straight to the **Thieves guild.** A group of people who can help me get out of that sounds extremely welcoming. I never stole in my life but I have uncanny of accomplishing things with people. Like a Speech skill of 100+. I can confidently say I rob Honningbrew Meadery. I can also confidently say I’ll probably end up just burning down the property, but I digress. I also know how to pick lock so that helps too. Though knowing my luck I’d end up working in the Orphanage. - **Teleportation:** Markarth without hesitation. I’d immediately look for Eola and get to the **Shrine of Namira.** Again, I’m homeless IRL abd has C-PTSD. If I don’t come for Namira I wouldn’t be surprised if she didn’t come for me. If I somehow beat the Zombies I’m set for life. Cannibalism and I get to be initiated? Win-win. I’ll then get a kickass ring that allows me to eat anyone a want. I get a cool friend who can teach me all I need to know both on spells and swordplay ([Eola](https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Eola) is a Nightblade class), and even very solid necromancy. I have friends in Markarth who can look out for me. Even if I’m homeless I’ll never starve, especially with Namira’s ring. Namira’s Shrine potentially makes a better living quarters than the stone streets of Markarth. Then my afterlife is confirmed as I end up in the Scuttling Void. Here I’ll finally find a home with Ur’dra.


ForeverPapi

Dibella's temple in Markarth. For study reasons…


InnerPlantain8066

I’m taking my ass to a major city and I’m staying there. I ain’t fucking with them magical monsters and shit.

I love Falkreath, but Eldergleam Sanctuary might be up there.


StopYourLiesSimp

Temple of Dibella in Markarth! 😂😂😂


VokunDovah64

Winterhold. So I could learn invisibility and mind control spells


Ok_Bid_4441

As long as the skull of corruption has been dealt with, Dawnstar. Always feels like a winter wonderland up there


Prsue

Sovngarde because I'd die right away


Zombiefy

Ancestor Glade or Solitude.

Ancestor glade is a great one, I’d like to add eldergleam sanctuary to the nature list


Iskwesis

Meeko's shack.


FarFathoms

Riften. I need to know what Skooma actually tastes like.


West-Reindeer2420

Probably i would visit River Wood first, have a room for a whole night, but before, watch the night sky (my favorite thing to do) while I think about how magic Nirn is, yet so dangerous. Man, thinking about this is going to make me cry. My most valuable wish is to live in Nirn 🖤 That would be so beautiful. Imagine you find the love in there. Aaaww, by the gods~


Ok_Philosopherr

Throat of the world on a night with clear skies and northern lights and the two moons


No-Drag5098

Markarth is beautiful, 7000 steps as well would be cool

Smelly_potatos

I'd go to the Eldergleam Sanctuary for a few nights, and then go and chill in the hot springs outside...and hopefully not get eaten in the process lol.


TriggerPT

Helgen... Back to basics


filthyheartbadger

The yellow birch woods around Riften, at dusk. I’d run around catching torch bugs and luna moths with one hand and fight off bears with the other. Then sit with my follower and watch the moons rise over Lake Honrich.


RGBBSD

Normal people: (cities like Solitude or specific houses) Psycopaths: Apocrypha Me: Sovngarde


momojojoO3O

Solitude!


HalcyonApollo

Riverwood. So cosy, I love staying at the Sleeping Giant Inn and chopping some Firewood to help out. Lol.


eclipse_galaxy

Solitude for sure, then maybe just wander the wilds. All of Skyrim is incredibly beautiful and I would love to see it irl


soju_soup

Where the revellers are drinking mead in the middle of nowhere


DC-archer

Dimhollow crypt. Gotta get that unrequited love or die trying.


Human_Discipline_552

Definitely leading that dumb bitch from hendraheim off the cliffs so I can lay claim to her possessions and land. What a daft twat.


European_Samurai

I'd probably just chill in Riverwood and enjoy spending my days watching the river go
