Okay, so things I've figured out about Skyrim:
-You don't level up by killing things. Well, not directly. You level up by using your various skills, and when those skills increase (destruction magic, restoration magic, sneaking, lockpicking, pickpocketing, etc), you get some exp towards the next level.
- it is extremely open ended. I've been running from city to city just to experience it all, and then going back and finished quests in other places. I still haven't been to every city yet!
-if you buy a horse, it can die if you dismount to fight things.
-I am just as bad at directions in-game as I am in real life (and every other game I've played).
-it is pretty! And there are mods to make it more pretty. I added one called "realistic lighting," which makes it hard to see things in some of the caves, but that's how it would be in real life!
So more pictures.

Hmm... will have to reinstall and start playing again. I got sidetracked. And annoyed with dragons. Damn dragons.
