Granted I've been a huge elder scrolls fan since Arena way way back then, but I never expected Skyrim to be THIS good. I chose to play at the "adept" difficulty level to have a bit of a challenge, and it's been great so far. I'm loving the fact that it's not as easy and straightforward (for the most part, and maybe just for now) as Oblivion, as I am forced to hunt for hide and leather, mining for ore, and doing smithing, and the current level gear I got is getting me nowhere, I thought I was roundabout level 15, but I checked i'm only level 10 now. A normal "kill bandit leader" quest from the inn has me using so many potions, as my 21base damage scimitar on my imperial fighter dude barely even dents a bandit leader's healthbar.
So it's a challenge, and I'm loving it.
Can't wait for the "no fast travel" and "no map markers" mod.
