God this game is so freaking good. Just got my house and found a dog at the same time. Basically I have it setup so that my virtual dog greets me whenever i head home to drop off adventuring supplies.

A cool tip too if you are using the controller is that you can assign favourates to your left and right d-pad. Just go into your fav menu and hold either the left or right d-pad to make it a quick select when you hit either button. Makes switching from a sheild -> healing spells on the off had that much easier.

This also made me lol:

You should be able to go into your Journal, and select the quest, then the subquest, and if you then go to the map it should have a quest marker. If not, you might have to ask around for directions.

The other thing is, after reading the list posted previously, beware of leaving items in your house - it seems that you can have stuff stolen from your home, even if you have a housekeeper/wife.

And for those of you who are worried about getting stuck with a shitty class, you can pretty much get any player to max out any skill if you invest enough time. For example, when I feel like a hack n slash adventure, I'll deck out my guy in heavy armour and weapons. Then othertimes if I'm doing a more insidious quest, ill just put a black magicians robe on and go zap people with chain lightning a la emperor palpatine!! Join the dark side or die!!! Haha

If you buy the pendant of mara, (or whatever its calledy) and equip it when talking to a potential wifey, it will give you the option to get married.

You get the Amulet of Mara from the Temple of Mara in Riften. I haven't bothered actually getting a wife yet.

I'm like 30+ hours into the game I think and still level 18 only. Doing alot of the side quests. I think i should focus more on the magic. I have a mage as my companion and he basically kills alot before I get to the enemy. I try and run in and hack and slash and by the time I get there my companion kills them in one shot of lightning.

i just hit lvl 28, just got a wife too,

im kind of disapointed about the relationship aspect of this game, they did a much better job in dragon age and mass effect,

in this game you can literally ask anyone to marry you and they will do it just like that, and there is no dialogue after the fact,

also housing is kind of weak,

shit doesnt get stolen from your house, I notice that when I put something on a table, I come back in and find it on the floor somewhere, its like the game cant keep track of where you put them, and it just knows the general area.

All i got left to do is the imperial army quest chain, then im going back to the main chain, all these fetch side quests are getting old, also filling up my inventory and running from city to city for an hour just to sell all my loot is getting old too,

just got lvl 70 speech though, so that will solve a lot of that problem.

I think on the second play through it will go by much faster and easier, pretty much stop yourself from lvling up until you train from someone 5 times every level, i bet you can max a lot of tree's.

it's really weird when I step into a room and objects are flying around all over the place, not caused by anything. I was having a convo with an NPC and he got hit by a flying broom and plate

Just did all the side quests for the Thieves' Guild. Man that took forever. Now the main Thieves' Guild quest ...

On the plus side, my Sneak, Pickpocket, and Lockpicking skills have gone through the roof. My Pickpocket went from 17 to 41 just from Thieves' Guild side quests. Sneak and Lockpicking are now 50+ (I'm @ Level 20).

No, just kill him. You make your own story in this game. It is a true ROLE playing game. If your ROLE is to kill the guy who helped you, then so be it.

I find that I am lagging at some points of the game even though my graphics card isn't fully utilized, CPU bottleneck perhaps?

But anyways, the archery skill is actually refined enough to be practical unlike TES4. I'm loving archery right now, sneak attacks can do one hit kills most of the time, and you can shoot from so far away. I remember firing 20 arrows at an ice wolf and have none of them hit in a snowstorm, only to realize that the wind influences the arrow's trajectory. A nice touch.

Using a sword and a shield is really fun too, and actually has depth to it ( no more just running up and click spamming)

I just finished the Companions and every single member (male and female) was hitting on my character because of the amulet of mara lol. If it only worked that way in real life

Everything is improved so much from Oblivion, other than the graphics, you can hardly compare it to Oblivion.

I did kill him, he doesn't truly die. Just stops combat while he is kneeling on the ground. Then he comes back and fights some more

Guess I'll take the suggestion to run up to Whiterun
