I actually just ended buying my first house because of this lol. Soooo heavy.

I've played around 15 hours as mostly a thief and the amounts of cash I'm getting is pretty awesome. I've made about 20k by now and it's just getting higher. Already maxed out (100) Pickpocketing and being able to steal equipment off people is just hilarious. Since Pickpocketing levels so fast, I'm already level 24 lol almost 25... Not to mention I have had the Thief stone on the whole time and sneaking all the time as well so that and lockpicking is pretty high now.
I've been playing on the hardest difficulty, Master if I recall. It is actually not that bad. I would say it is similar if not the same as previous games highest difficulty which I've also played (Oblivion, Fallout 3/NV). Bosses are kind of gay though, same with Dragons if you fight them alone just due to the sheer amount of HP they have on this difficulty. I assume it is a lot more, have not yet played on other difficulties.

Well for me one of the best things with Morrowind was getting my own house and decorating it with items from all of my travels! To have a place called home:-)

I did not really want a house at the time though. The Whiterun house is kind of small but certainly good enough for stashing shit lol.

If anyone wants to improve blocking fast, go fight a giant and block its strikes with a nice shield. I'm using a 47 armor shield with 40 blocking and every strike from the Giant I block gives me a point in blocking. Insane how fast you level blocking with Giants.

Same here  wondering too if it's possible to do something light armor-ish with it.

i don't know if anyone can help but I'm stuck in wolf skull caves and can't get out, I'm not sure if its glitched

I honestly am not to happy about the menu system. You can really feel that it was designed for a console, and not a PC, wich pretty much sucks. Also i am recieving a lot of small graphic glitches like flickering shadows and dead enemies floating in mid air. However, the game itself seems really awesome, so i will try to ignore the stiff menus and hope for a patch fixing the graphical issues!

I've played 13 hours so far and the world just seems so huge... I know in terms of square miles it's just about as big as Oblivion I think, but it feels a lot bigger. In these 13 hours I've been to maybe 5% of the dungeons, just a couple of villages and cities and I know for certain that I haven't found the majority of quests in these villages and cities yet. This game is truly enormous.
Also, the giants are the shit... at least at low levels. You make them angry and they use you as a meaty baseball to kick you away for a homerun in one hit. So funny to watch, too, because sometimes the physics bug out and it literally shoots you away miles in one direction or into the sky.

Yeah, the universal feedback I've heard so far is: "Game is great, but menus are absolutely godawful!"

guys, is it possible to reset certain talent points?

What you guys have to realize is that this game and the menues handle ABSOLUTELY beautifully with a 360 controller. what bethesda has done is to come up with an innovative and very intuitive control scheme for controller without sacrificing any of the depth of a hardcore rpg for pc.
what i would recommend everybody do (if you are openminded enough and not victim of blindpcfanboypride) do yourself a favour and play it with a controller.
i know it might sound outrageous to some of you but please try it atleast. xbox controller is dirtcheap and even if you might lose some street credibility i think its worth it:p
also skyrim= game of the year

Finally finished that long ass mage college quest line. Was well worth it for the godly magicka regen items. Now I actually can cast some spells before my MP depletes.

Hotkeys deleting themselves after switching out of a dual wield to a bow or something is getting kind of old though.

My housemate installed this on my computer cause his won't run it and he had a 12 hr run, beautiful to watch. I haven't played any of the elder scroll games before but I really want to try this as he is going warrior and I like mage based builds in most games. Fighting the urge to play it as I'm not sure how it works with different characters and save files :/

I honestly don't get all the complaints about the menu system for PC. I'm playing through with mouse/keyboard, wouldn't want to play it any other way. I also have a wired 360 controller and play some games with it (batman for example, or racing games, or platformers, etc), but this game deserves to be played with m/k. I feel the menu system is awesome, I can see how it would be perfect for a controller but I make my way around it with a mouse just fine.
My only complaint so far has to do with the bugs. How do you not catch a bug where the favorites functionality doesn't work if you rebind the key? That was almost game-breaking for me and that's unfortunate because it's just a bug that should have been caught and has nothing to do with the quality of the game. They had to have not put any real testing in the PC version and I find that a bit unacceptable. That's not the only bug that annoys me of course but an obvious "really? how did you not find and fix this..." The menu system can be glitchy but I'm sure they'll fix all this and in the end it'll work exactly as it should. In that regard I do feel the menu system works really well (when it works) so as long as they fix it I'll have no complaints (it doesn't matter to me if it was "consolized", it just matters if it works well and IMO it's conceptually brilliant).
So overall, amazing game so far, not enough time put into polishing the PC version but I have faith it'll be fixed and the issues are minor enough that they're not stopping me from playing late into the night. I can see this being GOTY for me if it continues to be this much fun.
