I finally broke down and got this. I've got 4 days left of my vacation, just got a bag, and figured "why not?".

So far the game is fun, but all the fucking choices is a little overwhelming at first. In the first hour I gotta pick my class, the star I was born under (or something), etc....

The graphics are awesome. Seeing the grass blowing in the wind in the intro, and the scene with the bad guys coming through those flaming doors with the battering ram was awesome.

My only peeve now is when I talk to people, I like to practice my speechcraft and max out my influence with people to raise my skill. Sometimes, it takes like 5 tries to get all the way up, but I gotta listen to the same 4 stupid lines of dialog. "That's a good one!" "You can't scare me" etc...

Also, I'm so used to WoW, where you could go to a bar, and there were free beds upstairs you could walk up and lie in. I went to the bar looking for a bed, went upstairs, picked the lock, and went to sleep. I did this like 4 times and couldn't understand why I kept getting arrested. Finally I realized I was breaking into the bartender's bedroom and sleeping in his bed.
