Good one. Time to start my 4th game, and do enough db to get the horsey. Cavalry officer! Pity no spear yet, but can't complain.

If you watch the video in ign the horse combat looks like it could use some polish I know it's only for of beta right now but I looked like there's some control issues

horse combat. lovely. i never enjoyed mounted combat in games. to freakin' hard and clumsy and i doubt theres going to be kill cams for it. my biggest gripe though, is the lack of big glitch fixes blood on ice is STILL glitched to oblivion. rueful axe still swings at the speed of a glacier. ebony blade is still confused on what kinda weapon it is. and the dark brotherhood mask STILL. ISNT. THERE. bethesda needs to spend more time fixing, and less time adding new things that will add new glitchs. ugh.

blood on is isnt glitched you have to go talk to the gaurd near the drink pub, then go down to the prison where the wizard dud is being helpd and he will help you, from there you wait near the smithing area and boom kill the real buthcer

xbox. and again, you fail to see my point. alot of people -CANNOT- start the quest in any form or way. and it glitchs in various ways DURING the quest. thats enough arguing over a redundant subject

I had no trouble with the blood on ice quest. But sometimes in bleak falls barrow the first puzzle is broken and i cant move the stones.
