Kill the enemy. Raise the enemy's corpse as a zombie. Sneak behind the raised corpse. Sneak attack and kill it... again. Sneak level goes up :-) No strategy guide or online tip taught me that. Bow to the master thief / assassin / merchant! Skyrim's economy belongs to me!

What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Perhaps. It does imply that one is up in the air somehow.

Must be some kind of level thing or something.

Maybe, at that level you are forced to stand on 7 hr. flight due to an obese neighbor. :ask:

I decided to side with Ulfric Stormcloak. I like his independent thinking and uncompromising attitude. We need more leaders like that today.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

I bought this game last week, and in half an hour I might even have time to try it out for the first time! Excited!

Picked it up for a cheap price just before xmas and I've been steadily playing it. I just found my first Dwemer ruin :nerdgasm:. I loved them in Morrowind and it was one of the things that bothered me about Oblivion [lack of said ruins].
