Have Fun After Defeating Alduin in Skyrim

One of the great things about Elder Scrolls games is the freedom you have. After beating Alduin, the entire realm of Skyrim begs to be explored. Here are some things you might want to try.

Steps

  1. Try going back to all the cities you have visited and talking to everyone. Many side quests can start from just talking to people in towns.
  2. Don't forget to look back at your unfinished quests. After walking through the main quest, chances are that you'll have picked up quite a few more quests. Start doing them, they can be a lot of fun!
  3. Join a faction. The Dark Brotherhood or The Companions are good ones to try.
  4. Try being a vampire or a werewolf. Both give you special skills and abilities.
  5. Take a side in the war! If you haven't joined either the Stormcloaks or the Imperials, look back in your quest log, and there should be a quest that will start your journey.
  6. If you've done all of this, you could just try starting over again. Choose a different race, and try a different playstyle. Start a mage or assassin character, if you played as a warrior the first time. Playing as a different class can really enhance your experience.

Tips
