I've had this game since the midnight release, my character is level 45, and I'm only just now joining the Companions and attempting to become a werewolf. Huh.

I got the game...months ago, can't remember when, and I am taking a long hiatus. Mostly because I'm stuck. But I loved what I played, even though some parts freaked me out.

Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.
I use first person for using my bow, and switch between first and third depending on the combat situation. If I am surrounded by enemies, I use third person so I can see where everyone is and block incoming attacks. I also fight dragons in third person for the most part. When fighting a single enemy, I can use either, but sometimes I find that first person is more effective for blocking.
I'll have to try this.

I hate waking up too early and being unable to go back to sleep, but deciding to use that time to go wreck shop on a bandit's den was a nice way to spend it.

I did that with my last character. Then my save files got corrupted and I had to start over. What a waste.
Now I'm playing a Heavy Armor character and I'm saving up my dragon bone.
Oh, I also got the Blades Armor for the first time! It's so purty.

If you use this (Alchemy Immersion.), you will make a ton of coin with alchemy. Note that if you float your mouse over the individual ingredients you can see all four properties. Very handy!

What are you stuck on? Skyrim does have some bugs, but most can be worked around.
This (Skyrim - The Elder Scrolls Wiki) has gotten me unstuck so many times I can't even count! Just Google where you are stuck (for example, Google the name of the quest or the location) and click the result for the wiki. Also the wiki is a great resource for all sorts of things...like finding that wonderful alchemy app I linked to above.

I started yet another new character last night...and I'm not even done with my dual-wield character yet.
I was in the mood for a mage that also sneaks and performs hits. So say hello to my new Dark Elf mage assassin!

If you want profit, I'll go ahead and give you the recipe for the most valuable potion:
Giant's Toe, Purple Mountain Flower, and Wheat. High resale value (not good to use however) and will boost your Alchemy skill real fast.

Yes, I was looking at your app, that's pretty cool.
Is it odd that I've played this game for (far to!) many hours, but haven't even been to High Hrothgar yet? I've had three characters, a male Nord, a female Nord and a female Breton, and none of them have even delved into the main quest line!
I think I recall reading that it's short and somewhat underwhelming, so maybe I'm not missing much. Spoiler free enlightenment anyone?
