I finally had some time to put some serious hours in Skyrim, and basically SKYRIM SKYRIM SKYRIM SKYRIM SKYRIM.
Holy shit this game is incredibly. It's so huge and beautiful. And so damn extensive. Every NPC has a name, many of their own stories. Practically everything can be picked up, can be examined, can be eaten. There are times where I just stop and stare: the aurora borealis over the mountains, the moons sliding through the clouds, the golden leaves dancing to the ground. The Dude's been playing it too (of course) and despite our similar character level, we're basically playing different games. He's a thief, sticking close to the holds. I'm a warrior out in wilderness. My character climbs the highest peaks to search for dragons, delves deep into caverns for mining. She's chased a stag across a valley into the forest, she's taken off her heavy armor to help farm and chop wood.
At night she hunts vampires.
And then there's Oooh Mr. Farkas oooh. Who my character married the hell up.
