It gets better with every passing hour. It wasn't until my third of fourth Oblivion character six months after I bought it that I realized it had become one of my bestest games of all time.

Still is, too. Just behind Final Fantasy VII.

Hmm. I'll have to play it a bit more tomorrow then.

I managed to get stuck up a mountain at one point.

Had a 13 hour Skyrim session today, and I'll probably be back on it again before I go to bed. Game is incredible.

Yeah they are awesome. I love the inevitable moment at the end of them where the prince will tell you "or you could just you know ... kill the guy standing next to you".

I had to collects the parts to Mehrunes Razor for some guy opening a museum in Dawnstar I think it was. At the end I was given the option by Mehrune Dagon to kill the guy and keep the razor for myself.

The poor bloke says let's just go back to the museum and we can share some money because he has a family and just wants to open the museum and I blasted him off the mountian with a dragon shout [never gets old] .

I felt so awful for ages afterwards that I'm actually considering changing my character to a good guy and doing some healing and pilgrimage related stuff.

Unreal. That's art right there.

just finished this quest anddd..

Spoiler:

the guy dies anyway after you refuse to kill him he says he will make a run for it back to dawnstar then he just stands there and 2 summoned dremora come and kill him in like 2 seconds


and the word wall that is in the place where you get one of the razor pieces from wasnt working for me, the place where you have to kill the hagraven

Thats why Meridia + Azura are the best they are lovely /gay

and Azuras star is the best artifact in the game imo even though i only have like 5 i havent even tried dawnbreaker yet but i think it only affects undead and the only undead are draugr which only take like one hit with an ice spear to kill anyway so thats kinda pointless

sanguine rose is epic too but ill probably sell it when i my skill level is high enough to conjure a dremora

i dont use any weapons

my magicka is 520 and i have all the high level destruction/conjuration spell plus one of the stones that makes magicka regenerate really fast i forget which one it is and i have the double duration conjuration perk which i always dual cast so i have a dremora lord with me all the time they last nearly 5 minutes but once i reach master level with those im gonna start using 1 handed and archery more

and the razor is the worst artifact imo azuras star is amazing peryites quest is my favorite daedra quest so far but i never use the artifact

As usual I can't point out the Bretons in this game. I had the same problem with Oblivion then realized that they were imperials with a lisp. I thought Mirabelle was a Dark Elf for ages now I realize she's a Breton.

Dark Elves were like High Elves before but it seems they've become the cheeky Cockney avin'-a-laugh-har-har types in this one sort of off to the side selling crap goods and sinking booze.

Argonians are even less present than ever which is a shame because they look boss. In Morrowind they were slaves, in Oblivion they were the subject of erotic fiction, and here they don't get due respect either.

More Khajiits would be nice too but then I'm biased. I know they've always been marginal races but Oblivion and especially Morrowind had way more beasts than this game.

Unrelenting Forcing people off the side of cliffs still hasn't gotten old.

I'm sick of fighting forsworn and falmer.

I have an unlimited bounty in Markarth now after doing the forsworn conspiracy quest and killing the guards who tried to frame me after it. I can't yield them so if some quest down the line involves me having to hold a convorsation in Markarth with someone without getting a sword up the arse I'm goosed.

Anyone spot any Orcs?
