I just find it odd that a lot of the bodyguards state "There have already been several assassination attempts on the jarl, you better not try anything funny"

"Don't worry, I can't kill him anyways, even if I stab him directly through the heart"

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've found that NPC immortality extends to random enemy camp leaders. Upset, I am. I could understand not being able to kill Ulfric in his chamber, or apparently everybody in his room, but it seems like every NPC that I do want to kill is blessed by Bethesda force fields. On the other hand, one of the few exceptions to the rule had a quest-line that started with her death. I'm just a bit surprised by how she didn't see it coming.

Oh yeah, those imperial stormcloak camps are annoying.  You can kill off all the mooks, but the legate, or stormcloak commander are off limits.  Even if you've already ended the civil war questline.

What about stealth? Cause the x30 sneak bonus looks amazing for a dagger build.

I used to do this a lot in Oblivion.

Although I honestly don't think it'll be anywhere near as interesting in Skyrim as you need to be far more precise when it comes to positioning than in Oblivion.

So yeah, that's a giant I found dead in a cabbage patch potato farm shortly after killing my second dragon.
Ignore his club, slowly floating away...

edit: Er, I think this is a second giant in the same area, because I don't see any cabbages nearby.

That's a scripted encounter.

Fists only. You can use heavy gauntlets, but that's it (There is a heavy armor perk which adds the weight of gauntlets to fist attacks).

I started out as a pure warrior,  (who loved that healing spell)  but I ended up having so much fun sneaking around and backstabbing and lockpicking and swiping things that i've transformed into a sneaky-stabby assassin.
Who murders people with a 2-H sword.

Stabbing people in the back and running them through with a massive 2-H while seeing 'SNEAK ATTACK'  makes me grin every time.
I love how they can't hear that loud ass 'SSSHHHHIIIIIIIIIIING'  right behind them before I strike.

Daggers can get a x30 sneak bonus whereas I think every other weapon gets x3 (not sure).

EDIT: Plus Daggers are silent when killing in sneak mode.

Difficult level: Master
Race: Any
Birthsign: Thief all the way
Armor: Light only + shield
Weapons: Bare hands , Dagger/s or swords only? ( too bad there aint throwing weapons yet ) Bows for delivering poison?

Any thoughts ?
