Did some more dungeon crawling with the difficulty raised where it should have been. With my style of play it didn't matter. Enemies don't even see me and they drop quickly by an arrow to the face.

I'm interested to see what happens when I attempt a dragon fight.

I also want to at least attempt to learn the magic side of things and maybe explore enchanting a bit this weekend.

Is there much action in this game or is it pretty slow where you just walk around alot and talk to people

It is what you want it to be. If you want non stop action you can bounce from quest to quest. If you want to relax and take in the scenery you can do that too. Hell you can even spend all day reading books in the game.

It sounds lame but I have sat down at a fire and listened to one of the bards sing a few songs.

It's a great balance.

There's plenty of action in this game.

I've had many great fights and plenty of scares playing this so far.

Nothing beats roaming around a forest at night and stumbling on a sleeping bear.

Bears are NOT happy when you wake them up.

I think the sneak/bow fight style looks alot of fun and sounds to work well, i have built a nord warrior type but am very early into the game has anyone had sucess with a two hand barbarian type character?

 

[intothevoid]

Man i'm too scared to go into the forest at night, i like getting some sleep when it's dark

Maybe once I have some better armour/weaponry

My sneak/bow person primarily is also bulked up in two handed weapons. What I don't kill with stealth I go in and tee off on them with my greatsword.

It's a weird combo but it works for me.

 

[intothevoid]

I'm also focused on sneak/bow + a couple of big two handers. Now trying to develop spells and magic abilities too

Thats what im looking to do as well, im only level 3 due to just getting the game, so let me know how it works for ya

 

[Shropt]

Does this game have vampirism like Oblivion?

Yep.

Not only vampirism

Have you guys with stealth tried using daggers with stealth? Apparently it has a ridiculous bonus.

 

[Something Sexy]

Not only vampirism

OH YEA! I joined the Companions and well...I decided to drink the blood. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone yet.

 

[BadMoon]

I have not. I keep forgetting that I added a skill that gives me 15x damage with daggers when in stealth. This should go perfect with a dagger I got at the end of the dark brotherhood missions. It is a dagger that not only hurts your opponent, but gives you health as well. Should be a bad ass combination.

I drank the blood.

Spoiler

But I haven't changed yet or anything outside of the initial transformation. Looking forward to figuring that out
