get the mod manager makes everything a breeze

and enjoy!

There iss an addon that will make the mining nodes more visible too, so you might want to get that as well.

I saw your name pop up as playing it on Steam....I thought you had this already.

I think I have to rate this as one of, if not the, best rpg I've ever played. Better than Dragon Age. Better than Fallout. Better than The Witcher (never played Witcher2..shut it TigerLord)

The UI kinda sucks, so I would check into getting some of the mods to alter it (I haven't messed with them much, as I've just gotten used to the standard, but if you can get it now, I've heard there wonderful).

For overall gameplay, depth, story there is nothing even close. It's just so goddamn massive. I've played...I don't even know how many hours 80+ easy, and still finding new places and new shit to do....as I did in Oblivion, I've kinda ignored a bit of the main quests to do the side ones, but they're not even really side quests, as they're so deep themselves...just really good shit.

I wish there more different types of baddies, as you kinda run into the same stuff after a while (Oblivion has the same problem) and the enchantments that you're able to put on items are nice, but you get them pretty quickly and don't see anything new for pretty much the rest of the game. You can eventually get to a point where you can actually place 2 enchantments on items, which makes them hella OP, but I still wish there were more variety.

All in all, thats really a small bitch in comparison to what you get out of this game...I really loved it, and I think you will, too...if you're planning on playing D3, you sure picked a bad time to start Skyrim.

Hardly and no thanks.

I really had such a bad taste from the first one, I've got very little interest, honestly.

That's really too bad. The first one had a cumbersome combat system but the story was fantastic (even more epic if you've read the books). The second one is 100% pure awesomeness.

But yeah, Skyrim is cool.
