Amazing game, just amazing, that's the only word for it, amazing. Immersive doesn't cut it, just amazing!
Here's how I play to give you a feel for just how awesome this game is.
I started as just melee combat guy, big sword's and a healing spell to use between battles. Then I joined the mages guild and I'm addicted to enchanting items, either to use against enemies or to sell for loads of cash and us that to either buy a horse or add stuff to any of my houses. I usually prefer to walk from city to city now so I can harvest stuff from plants and make potions to use in battle (or sell the ones that don't have a very good effect). I've finished the main quest (which was AMAZING by the way) and I have just joined the dark brotherhood. I think I'm going to finish the fighter's guild stuff next, then the mage's, then the Dark Brotherhood's, then the theives guild stuff.
Really, why did you read all that, you could've been playing this awesome game, yes, awesome, as soon as you step out of the first dungeon you will be in awe of all the beutiful landscapes and stuff.
