I didnt like Lydia much. She felt like a hoe the way she was given to me. Not that i like to sacrifice hoes in general tho.
And yeah i strapped her tightly to the altar, if you know what i mean
She protects me with her life constantly, shoots arrows that let me know there's an enemy behind me (when I'm not completely paying attention or already pre-occupied) and with the gear I give her she whoops some serious ass!
IM STUCK!!! ive just done 'the break of dawn' quest but at the end when your transported in the sky i think meridia is spposed to talk to me like she did the first time but shewont and so im just stuck a million miles in the air... GAH! please help...
I'm curious. Does anyone know why when I talk to some people they say things like "I don't like talking to someone who holds their honor so cheaply"? I remember in Oblivion if you got ~any~ infamy after completing the Knights of the Nine expansion main-quest chain (i.e. getting all of the Crusader items and whatnot) that they would talk kinda similar.
Also, is their any place where I can check my Infamy & Fame? I don't see it with the rest of the in-game info.

I think they just talk about your last bigger Quest.
Ah okay, thanks. Wasn't sure if I had some infamy or something, 'cause I hated having it in Oblivion. I liked being all "famous & honorable" etc.
Check your abilities you should have like a 3 minute invisibility for stage 4. Or there is always the possibility of bandits.
^This. Bandits are everywhere, just sneak around at night (and why not, while invisible) and feed one one as he sleeps. The of course cleanse them of their bad habits and OBLITERATE THEM FROM THE FACE OF SKYRIM!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah Vampires get like +25% to sneak, would be really useful.
I tried it with my Assassin and the bonuses are really good... but the whole vampire gameplay is just awefull. Everytime you get a new lvl of your vampirism you get new spells... if you favorite those spells and drink blood the spells vanish. So every ingame day you have to favorite your spells again <_< The whole no mana/hp/stamina reggen during the day doesnt help the gameplay either... you cant run during the day (because you drain you stamina fast and it doesnt reggen again...) so traveling becomes a pain in the ass.
Could just go with Lycanthropy, and enjoy 100% disease immunity. Even if you don't ever transform, perma-disease immune is pretty sweet.

I did that with my first Char... and I wasnt impressed at all with the Lycanthropy <_< It felt weaker than my normal DW/Heavy Armor Setup and its just inconvenient gameplay wise. You cant loot, you cant open doors(?) etc. Also the Companions Quest is really lackluster compared to the Thieves Guild Quest. Even the Mages Quest seems more intresting and I only did the first 2 Parts with my Warrior (because I needed access to the Ruins for Forbidden Legend <_<). Overall if you dont plan on using the Werewolf form because of RP or whatever reasons its not worth it. Also 100% Disease Resist isnt really that good... there are only extremly few diseases and you can allways heal them at a random shrine <_<.
Multiple points to be made here. I also am not impressed with Lycanthropy. I'm a heavy armor wearing archer/sneak, and there is no reason to transform whatsoever. I turn from a Khajiit shooting .50 cal rounds (metaphorically) to a werewolf that; deals less damage, is stuck in 3rd person view (which I hate while fighting), unable to loot, unable to open anything, etc. There's only 1 nice part of transformation in my opinion. If I get attacked by something like a bear or dragon while traveling between locations, and there's no map-node nearby after fighting, I'll transform if I can't find my horse. Transformation form definitely is fast, maybe faster than your horse (though you go through stamina, albeit relatively slowly).
I'm with you about the bland-by-comparison chain of quests for the Companions. They're essentially Skyrim's version of the Fighters Guild but they don't measure up to the Mage's College or the Thieve's Guild. Quite sad indeed.
If you don't intend on every using Lycanthropy though, I don't see any reason NOT to have it (unless you MUST stay your race for RP, or rather be a vampire). 100% disease resist is exactly how it sounds, a measure of convenience. Even if there are only a few diseases what does it hurt to automatically be able to resist them all?
I can't wait to start my evil character. So many people I have to pay a visit....
Sadly there's so many people who are "un-killable".
I might be one of the few who don't want to deal with the crap of re-doing every quest they've done. Once I hit 50 (I'm almost 49 now) I'll make a backup save file, then go into the appearance editor with the console. Ta da! New-yet-old character. Then I just move my skills around, yadda yadda, and I can try life from a different angle.
I've got the feeling nothing will be as much fun as sneak/archery. Can't beat the uber-convenience of being a master of bending time to your will (aka slow time by 50% while zooming my bow).

Thanks for reinforcing what I already know; "Kill all Argonians on sight".
