It has not been a great morning. I do require more than four hours of sleep. And my iPod has...died, it looks like. I think 'Rent' killed it. Sadness! Spent most of the morning walking around the campus, getting fingerprinted, and turning in my certification packet. Whee.

Sleeeeepy, and I haven't even started my four hours of work yet.

Say something, anything.

Test, one, two, three.

...anything but that.

The Mage Guild qualification quests are a bit of an annoyance, I think. I mean, you have to go to /every/ blessed city, before you can even formally join it. Until then, you're just an 'Associate'. Silliness!

I'm usually a goodie-good type, but I have to admit that the Dark Brotherhood quests are /really/ clever and fun, and I like the characters involved. ...which, since they're all bloody insane, should probably be worrisome.

The Thieves' Guild, I'm ehn on. I don't steal much...admittedly, I don't need to. I've got three houses and 60K rumbling around in my pockets.

Money is funny in this game, isn't it? You've got gold, but if you aren't high enough level then there isn't anything to buy with it.

For the most part I'm a big fan of the level-scaling. I think it's a great way to make the game more open. You can go anywhere and find an appropriate challenge. That's pretty cool! That said, it would be nice to have a few more things to drool over in the shops.

Indeed. Especially if you're playing a Light Armor user...most of the cool enchanted armor that you can find in the shops is Heavy Armor. Same with quest armor...largely Heavy. It makes me SAD. Although, Sigil Stones can help, but the random effects are an issue.

I love the level-scaling. It makes things a decent challenge, but not overwhelming. The only thing that does make me rather sad is the lack of enemies at high levels...I'm level 31, and I haven't seen any /new/ foes since the low twenties. It'd be nice to see something out there that was just, RAAAAAR.

Aw, that's sad. I'm specialized in light armour myself. I was looking forward to some sparkling magic armour later in the game. So far all I have are some greaves that add to my acrobatics and a non-protective pair of pants that give me 10% fire protection... yeah, like I'm going to wear those... sure, you can slice my thighs apart but I'm slightly protected against hot wax if your candle drips on them! BooYah!

Let's see if I can remember my major skills, just for fun...

Blade, Destruction, Restoration, Bow, Security, Light Armour, Persuasion.. I think.

I would have levelled much faster if I'd taken sneak as a major, since I scurry around in the shadows all the time, but that's okay.

*giggles* Mine are Blade, Destruction, Restoration, Security, Illusion, Light Armor, and Alchemy.

There are some good things out there, but not as many I was hoping for. Quest items are usually pretty good, though. Mmmm, quest items!
