24 hours played. I'm a werewolf, about to meet a vampire, part of Dark Brotherhood, Student of Mages College, in process of joining the Imperial Guard, already a thane with my own personal warrior guardian and making good progress with the story. Yet it still feels like i've only just scratched the surface. What a game!!

Loving the level up stuff with perks, although can never decide. I'm pretty much a Viking, 1 handed/shield but put some stuff into sneak for the Dark brotherhood quests.

And it sends shivers down your spine when you're riding along and just hear a massive roar above you, followed by a huge shadow on the ground and the sky turning grey. Yep...that'll be a dragon.

observation: the higher up you go in elevation, the more difficult things are, particularly dungeons.

What do you think? seem right to you?

Not sure, but they did alter the MOB levels by area instead of levelling them up with you. I did read also that in most dungeons the level is locked to yours on entering it, and stays locked. So you enter at level 10 for instance, and fail, you can come back to it at level 12 and it wont be as impossible.

what i do know is Blood Dragons are a bit easier since getting the second word of flame breath shout.

the only second word I have is from the main story quests from the greybeards. Do you get second words in the same way you get the initial one?

yes, then ofc you needs souls to make use of them.

for instance i wandered up the mountain near Saarthal(sp?) and found word 2 of ice form (after killing the dragon guarding it)
