Have been playing this game every moment of my free time since it came out. And snarking at enemy dialogue. A typical example

Bandit1 to Bandit2- Keep an eye out for trouble...
Me [Jumps out from behind pillar]- Hey, I heard you were looking for trouble! [Casts fireball, blows shit up]

A few things I liked- Meleeing a giant is a good way to get killed, but if you hide among some rocks a ways off and take potshots with your bow, you should get a couple levels of sneak and a nice giant skin rug. And being able to get into an screaming match with a dragon... And win. Thu'um, fuck yeah.

Well, I now have an urge to end sentient life.

Yes, there is something really satisfying about shouting at guard and having him keel over and die.

Is it just me, or are thieves in RPGs always oh so very stupid?

Do you seriously try to mug someone wearing better equipment than you, theres 2 of em, and one of them has both his hands on fire. Does this not ring any warning bells in the thiefs head?

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.

Yea I had a thief try to mug me too.  Funny thing was he seemed to be trying to mug Ma'ik (sic) the liar too when I arrived and he decided that I look richer.

Well yes I seem to look much richer friend.  This greatsword here?  It is wreathed in flame.  My bow? It steals men's deer's souls and makes them my slaves.  This orcish armor?  All exquisite, and enchanted to fortify health.  Oh and the woman behind me?  That sword of hers is nice and incorporeal, ignores armor, handy to have.  Oh and her armor is also forged and enchanted similar to mine.

So you are basically trying to mug a pair of walking tanks with armories strapped on.  By yourself, with a steel dagger and what looks like plain leather.  Are you sure that's wise?

Theif: "You don't scare me, I won't ask again, hand it over."

Suit yourself. *Decapitates thief in the first attack*

Damnit work! I have to actually do things today, which will cut several hours off my Skyrim time. >:(
Guess I'd better play it til I have to leave. Betting odds on me ending up late, guys?

“Well,” he said. “We’re in the Forgotten hunting grounds I take it. Your screams just woke them up early. Congratulations, Lyara.”
“Do something!” she whispered, trying to keep her sight on all of them at once.
Basileus clapped his hands once. The Forgotten took a step forward, attracted by the sound.
“There, I did something. I clapped. I like clapping,” he said. -The Investigator And The Case Of The Missing Brain.

I think this settles that every living thing in Skyrim is an idiot.

Anyway, I had something funny happen. I was constantly using mah dragon powahs at deer and rabbits, sorta mean, but it was a long walk. Then I reached a town and had a guard approach me. I was expecting a quest but what I got was: "Would you stop that...shouting, its scaring people."
