Fresh start

I have decided that today I will start the game from the start again. Probably for a silly reason.

At the start of the game you can got of with one of two characters. When I first played it I went off with Hadvar. I did not notice at the time that I could have gone off with Ralof.

It was later when I saw my partner go off with him that I realized this. I then thought that I should have gone with Ralof.

I should have started the game again then, but I was not that bothered at the time.

When I finished the Stormcloak rebellion I met up with Ralof and it was then that I decided that I really should have gone with Ralof at the start. The house that you go to as well is much friendlier and there is not a woman there moaning about me keeping away from her husband.

I have kept all of my saves and screenshots in case I change my mind.

I have decided to go for a Nord this time. I usually go for Elves. I thought it would be nice to be something different.

So here is my new character.


The only thing that will be a pain will be rediscovering the land again. However I will make it fun. I am now working to get my first house again.

Vampire

I decided that I would go back intot the den with the vampires to get a book that was there. I thought all of the vampires had been dealt with...apparantly not though. One of them took longer to deal with than the others and she turned me into a vampire.


Thankfully I was able to get to go strait to the temple of Mara and once I had prayed at the altar I was cured of my vampirism.

Though it could be fun to let a character become a vampire just to see what it is like. I would keep a save so that if it is not that fun I can stop being a vampire the easy way.

Fun quest

It did not take me too long to complete the dunken night quest. That was really fun. It is nice to do a quest that is fun. There was a fun twist at the end which I enjoyed.

I did think that this section was very pretty:


After that I was onto the Vampires in Markarth.

I am really enjoying it again. Though I really have to be careful that I do not slip back into the old habit of spending too much time on it and then burning out.

Though for now I think I will stick to quests that are easier to complete.

I must confess that I played the game so much when it first came out that the housework got neglected.

I then burnt myself out and stopped playing it.

Recently I got the soundtrack to the game. Listening to that made me want to play it again. Hopefully this time I will not burn myself out. I did think it would be fun to keep a journal to what I have done in the game.

The main quest that I am doing now is the drinkiong contest one. Now that I am starting to play the game again I thought it would be good to start off by playing the fun quests.

This game makes me want to take lots and lots of screenshots. I have edited the bar off the top of them to turn them into wallpaper.
