Use muffle.  The game calculates noise based on your armor rating.  Not your boot weight like in Oblivion.

There comes a time when you must take off the soft, furry slippers of a boy and put on the shoes of a man.
Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.

I picked this up during the sale, and I'm having fun with this game so far.  :)

A couple funny things I've noticed:

1)  Jumping out of a tower and shouting "Fus!" at the ground won't break your fall.
2)  If somebody questions the fact that you are a dragonborn, you shouldn't immediately shout "Fus!" in their face to prove it.  They get a little ticked.
3)  I found an "Ice" shout that is always hilarious to use.  Not only do NPC's comically freeze and fall over in an ice-cube, but they don't seem to get ticked at me when I use it on them.
4)  Lydia is a great pack-mule.

In a sarcastic tone, even when all you're doing is giving her healing potions and better equipment.

can your followers equip better armour, too?

Yeah, I gave her a Dwarven Helm and big dwarven boots.  Looks hilarious.

 PC users should also periodically reset her to force the game to scale her to your level.

Do save before wabbajacking them, unless you want to lose the follower and all their items should they turn into food.

I'm fairly sure there's a mod for that by now.

Nah, there aren't yet enough mods to make tits bigger. Only once a mod comes out to change every rock in Skyrim into a massive breast shall utility mods like that come out.

Maybe I am just fail, but I hardly ever get to sneak up on people. Granted I am only level 7 but out in the world enemies always get the jump on me and in dungeons there are only a few to ambush and even then I can't get into backstab range.

I am looking forward to invis for sure.

Melee sneak only really becomes viable at high sneak. Plus there are some enemies that are nearly impossible to sneak even when it is pretty high.
The 100 sneak perk makes being detected not matter because it makes you invisible for half a second, during which you can sneak attack NPCs that have seen you. If you're in front of them and you initiate a special kill animation there's a chance you'll teleport behind them before slitting their throat.

Nexus really needs to update the sight so that I can switch off mature mods and no longer see <9000 nudity mods under 'humour'.

 I think they do have a filter of sorts for that. At least three different ways of searching through their stuff, two of which have a setting for 'yo, no adult mods.'

 Although a mod apparently can become an adult mod if people upload adult images in the user submitted images section. Only way to explain why I had to turn a filter off just to check out an alternative run animation while holding bows mod.

I've been out of the loop. Is there a "Skyrim Mod" thread? If not I think it'd be good to compile an updated OP list of good game-enhancing mods rather than TITSINYOFACE for us to reference.

Not that I am aware of. I could add anything you want to the OP, but making a new thread might be cleaner.
