The Mage quest line in Oblivion wasn't very awesome.Though, that was largely due to the fact that generic enemies scaled up to your level while the unique bosses did not. When I fought Mannimarco, he died in approximately 5 seconds so it was pretty anticlimactic.

Even worse, you can do it with almost no ability to cast spells. You'd think the requirements to be Archmage would include some sort of demonstration of spell casting proficiency. But, then, the thief questline doesn't really require you to steal anything either. At least as an assassin they actually ask you to kill people.

Btw thanks for the tip about Unread Books, it will make a great addition. I also use a skill book mod which offers a choice whether to read now or save it.

Just made Archmage again. That quest line (college of winterhold) is just really unsatisfying... How did Bethesda go from an utterly awesome quest line in Oblivion (slaying Mannimarco) to this? If you hurry, you can literally become Archmage in about two to three gamedays...![]()

Took me 2 horus to get to whiterun....is that normal? I feel slow....
I usually don't get to Whiterun until 8 hours or so. I wind up clearing a bunch of caves near Helgen first, so that when the Dragon attacks I can at least DO something.

WTF is it? Its called Bientôt l'été
I watched the videos and still can't tell wtf valve was thinking (it wasn't greenlit). I'm not even sure if its a game. I think someone was in an arts and crafts mood the day they approved it or something.
Lulz. No idea. Though in Quebec they say 'A beintot' all the time - i.e. see you soon.
