Just an observation I thought about last night, and it will probably ruffle a few feathers.
It has occurred to me that we have lost the essence of the game, it has now become a game of levelling all we seem to do now is leave Helgen with our Architypical character in mind, then we proceed to do the quests/tasks we have done countless times to perfect the character into a perfect build,
EG, i can leave Helgen go to Riverwood and after visiting around 5 close locations and a small quest i could be at level 7 with 5-7000 gold before i got to Whiterun, not including Bleakfalls, or the Archery glitch
or even sneak trick in Embershard.
So basically we have complicated this game so much we have (i include myself) lost sight of what we have in our hands. We have changed a wonderfully crafted GAME called SKYRIM, into a levelling challenge, the pursuit of a perfect character without actually playing the game and enjoying it anymore, as in life we make mistakes, well dont you think old Dova will make mistakes, we dont seem to just leave Helgen with our character in mind and just PLAY and enjoy the game as Bethesda meant it to be,, pure enjoyment. Yes.. Yes i know the levelling system is so exploitable for EG Illusion muffle, but IMHO thats because we seek perfection instead of playing SKyrim as a game of fun and see what happens anymore, Hands up how many have spammed Illusion muffle to level, , instaed of just cast, cast again when it wears off and others as well, just a levelling game not an RPG to be enjoyed, if we make a mistake, so be it, it actually may become fun again. . .
Just my thoughts, make of them what you like, but no insults please, TY
