My quest log is insane right now. I'm sure I have over 100 miscellaneous objectives, and about 20 real quests. I don't do them. I talk to people here and there and otherwise wander the world. I love it.
Apparently its a known bug, and I had cleared a specific cave (that I just happened to come across in my travels); and that cave was supposed to be part of this Companion quest line. Pretty lame.
My companion quest line is bugged and I can't continue :'(
I'm at the part where.Koldak(?) was killed by the Silver Hands, but nothing happens when I return to the Companions HQ in Whiterun - people wont talk to me.

I found Skyrim really favors fighters and mages. The stealth route while it does get very very strong eventually is very weak early game. But if you want to stick with it I would start doing alchemy and start managing poisons and potions to help you out. If you can't resort to stealth cause you have already been spotted you need all the help you can get.Any tips for killing hired thugs as a character with weak combat skills? I'm level 5, but the levels are mainly from stealth and speech. I've been doing 70/30 stamina/health, but guess I should focus more on health.
They attack me in every town and the guards just run away. The only bounty I have is from stealing a horse which was after they had already been sent. I have murdered a lot of people, being with the dark brotherhood, so I'm sure it's due to that.
Melee is pointless as they usually kill me in two hits. Yielding doesn't work.
Edit: oh yeah, forgot you can hire companions. Got me a meat shield and armored him up. Can't wait to see those thugs again.

I'm At level 42. I have seen in two separate places dragons acting very erratic.
They fly backwards and glitch. They will stay away from me. I will try to approach them but they fly away backwards. They too far away to attack with any weapon. Hoping this will not affect the outcome of some quest.
Where's a good place to hunt animals for leather? Someone said the woods outside Riften, but there were no animals there, either night or day.
I know I could buy it, but hunting is fun and I need the bow skills.
A sneak archer can be damn devastating at higher levels. I do remember struggling in the beginning though.

I have to say, I started a new character--an assassin--and the whole experience is not only completely viable now when compared to Oblivion, but it's actually fun. My sneaking skill isnt 100 but it's fairly high, so that coupled with my Thieves guild gear and I'm practically invisible. I've had guards walk right up to me, while I'm crouching, and not even see me.
Plus, slowly creeping through dungeons with bow drawn, slowly picking off enemies is really fun. I once fought a Dragon Priests from the shadows, picking at his healthy slowly, without being seen once.
After playing a slice-and-dice one-handed melee Redguard, I'm finding this to be a really nice change.
Alchemy is a skill I have been working on, but is it supposed to be so slow? It's at 19, and I made over 15 potions and 6 poisons without an increase.
No problem though. I'm going to stop worrying about stats and skills and just go adventure.
Anyone using only bows and arrows? How do you like it? Fun?

I do have 400lbs of ingredients in my WhiteRun house ready for a marathon alchemy session some weekend
