Yeah, and aside from the random fetch quests I usually turn down everything seems to have a pretty consistent level of effort put into it. Some quests are shorter or less important than others, but they all feel worthwhile and well thought out.
The story isn't VtM: Bloodlines, or anything, but it's all very competent and interesting enough to make exploring the gigantic, diverse world feel meaningful.

He is literally going to spend his first ten hours of the game at that one spot. Then he doesn't want to actually level up (thus get a shitload of perks) for fear that enemies will level up with him and actually make the game a challenge. The thought of getting killed makes him want to sell the game. Some people just shouldn't game.

I'm glad I basically do the opposite. I only care enough about leveling to make sure I don't gimp myself (seems fairly hard to do in Skyrim anyways), and I'm just putting points into the stuff that's most fun (BLOCK). I save CONSTANTLY, because I want to play my One True Story and hate replaying stuff I've already done, but that's as bad as I get.
