First thing you do

[Edward Blom]

Just curious. What is the first thing you do when you get out of the sewers?

I usually do the first few starting quests and go right to exploring!

go to the imperial city kill a guard take his armor

Usually end up going to Chorrol, sometimes I'll go see Jauffre and other times I'll skip the Priory and go right into town, sell off excess stuff and go back to the sewer gate and explore Vilverin (which is straight across the water from the sewer exit).

It's a great starter dungeon, gives you plenty of arrows and some basic stuff that you can sell off to get started. Also has some food to get a few levels of alchemy, some arrows, etc.

walk to anvil, pick every alchemy ingredient on the way there. make all of them into potions, sell them, make 5k, buy the anvil haunted manor and do the quest. Gotta have a place to stash all the cool stuff I tell myself I'll use and then never do.

Find out if I still remember where all the Daedric and Aedric shrines are.

[DeadJericho]

first thing i always do is go to the imperial city market district and sell stuff.
then loot everything i can without stealing

get all the available quests in the city.

once done i exit the city and explore outwards in an ever increasing radius

i delay the main quest for as long as i can because doing it activate oblivion gate spawns, and they used to annoy me. they might be a lot better now.

i touch grass... in the plant pot next to my keyboard.

Go to the city and pick up a few quests, then to the Priory, then the castle to take it over

[Foxbyte]

Do a few quests if I feel up to it then go around exploring for a bit then eventually loop back around to continue with some quests when I get bored.

I love how beautiful the world looks now. Truly a faithful remaster imho. Once Skyblivion gets released I'll be playing that, too

I can't help but just pick a bunch of the random flowers / ingredients and such while I'm wandering around exploring too. Love the new animations for them

[Schwoaza]

I start my game like I did in the good ol days (a little exploit-y so I'm spoilering it just in case
Continuously jump against a wall while sneaking and spamming heal until I'm 50-75 in skill level
Do the mage guild quest in bravil to get free charm spell
Afterwards I get a huge amount of poisoned apples from a certain fort and sell them to some nice vendor in the merchant inn for thousands upon thousands of septims (charm spell + haggling brings up bartering to around 50 at least)
Get a free unicorn mount
Start the main quest or whatever at level 20-ish with idk how many level ups to spare, around 50k septims to bankroll my heroic exploits

[Cenwalh]

Disable ♥♥♥♥-Tracing (can only do it fully from .ini file) and apply the OG Colors Reshade

[salt miner]

do the main quest until i get the blades set

[Malus Lupus]

I head to "baby's First dungeon" Vilverin which is the Ayleid ruins right across from the sewer exit to get some early phat lewt.

[PocketYoda]

I swam across the river and killed all the bandits in some temple..
