and remember that DB never changes it's way of working:
(this isn't a spoiler, anyone knows this)
first kill someone innocent.
npc or similar.
then go to bed
wake up to meet brotherhood member.
good killing.
That isn't how I met the dark brotherhood at all.

Yeah don't kill people's livestock.

I think if you put your weapon away they'll stop...?

Am I the only one that finds bows inferior to melee in all means? I use bows as much as I can but I do much less damage than I would with a blade. Is it the arrows (i use ebony bow and iron arrows) or the archery is really weak in Skyrim?
You shouldn't be using bows as your only source of damage, unless you're sneaking/using bows.

The perk to do 3.0x sneak damage as well as slow down time is amazing. You can obliterate squads of people before they can find you.

even with sneak attacks (plus the perk) I hit barely more than up-close with a blade, and I've invested into them equally.

Bows have potential for way more Alpha damage then a weapon of the same class. (Elven, Glass, etc)

Bow damage+Arrow Damage, add in a good enchantment for even more damage, add in sneak bonus, and bam. You can one shot nearly anything. Add in the 20% perks, even better.

I solve my problems by:
Shooting them from afar.
If that doesn't work:
Stabbing a lot.
If that doesn't work:
Stand on a high stone and jump everytime the enemy wants to attack me. This makes them run away so I can shoot some more at them. x20

That sounds a lot like what I do, only the last step is F9 instead of jumping on a stone.

For Mage characters going through the "Revealing the Unseen" quest make sure to save before you put the crystal in the machine at the end. If you're unlucky it can bug out and you can't complete the quest.

Also I accidentally stole an ingredient from a shop when I was trying to use an alchemy table and later after paying my fines the shopkeeper pays some people to try and kill me. Luckily killing them gave me more money than the fine.

This makes me think they should have a prompt telling you that picking something up is a crime unless you are in stealth mode.

I got a couple of power words now but is says I need a dragon soul to use them. I assume I need to do the main quest (blergh :() to get dragons?
And how do I join the Assassins guild or whatever it is called here? I already killed a civvie.
