Also got this for christmas, am enjoying it so far. The sheer scale of the game is awesome, been rinsing it for two days straight and have done pretty much bollock all. I started off with my character being some armour laden warhammer toting drunken asshole, basically Robert Baratheon from SoIaF, but just before I turned off for today joined the Dark Brotherhood and stole/got given a bunch of all this crazy hax enchanted assassins armour, so I think I am going to go around stabbing people with daggers for a bit. I would love to smith and enchant some insanely hax weapons and armour but god damn if it isn't a pain in the arse to do. So much faff. Also I am crap at pickpocketing which is annoying because I want to be good at it, so I can go around and reverse pickpocket fish and troll skulls into random NPC's pockets, just for the fun of it.
