I was reading the books as a relatively new player to Skyrim (the first Elder Scrolls game I encountered). I don't think I'd even completed the main quest at that time.<br /><br />I've decided not to go back and revise the reviews, although now with greater knowledge of the series, I appreciate all of the books more and would review many of them differently.<br /><br />Thank you for your comment.

It sums up a lot of the +/- aspects of both games. I still have to say though, the game states transitions (that is, simple things as going through doors and puzzle animations) were executed better in the first game. Oh, and let's not forget the music, the battle theme and the police station theme in the first one were blast, while the second is kind of weak in that regard. Still, this is subjective. Anyway, thank you again for the great post!

After a Khajiit caravan was wiped out by frost trolls, a pair of Nord hunters found a living cub in the overturned cart, and they raised her as their own. She is curious about other Khajiit, but doesn't really understand their mindset and lifestyle. She thinks and acts like a Nord, and she worships Talos. When she met Brand-Shei, the Dunmer merchant who was raised by Argonians, she felt like she'd found a kindred spirit, someone who understood what it was like to be stuck between two cultures. And that's why she can't do the first Thieves Guild quest; she could never do anything against Brand-Shei.<br /><br />I've already started planning my next character, an Argonian philosopher-mage, although I don't quite have her origin story set yet. I am planning for her to be more of a moral-gray-area type, so I might be able to take her through the Thieves Guild questline.Anjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12247612996397058730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37200173.post-38423515769305713752012-05-19T03:40:56.162-05:002012-05-19T03:40:56.162-05:00I know what you mean about the first mission. I wa...I know what you mean about the first mission. I was playing as a Robin Hood archtype, a Nord who sided with the Empire to help stabalise Skyrim (in fear of it falling to the Dominion) - he'd eventually be disgraced fighting Thalmor and go underground, robbing from the Dominion and greedy nobles for the poor.<br /><br />Unfortunately, this game's theives guild is far more self-serving than 'man of the people'. :( Nevertheless, if you do an alternate play-through, give them a go since it's probably the most lengthy of the side-stories, and there's plenty of Nocturnal lore that goes with it. There's one book in fact that describes what the little symbols carved into the side of homes and shops signal.Redsoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08874726647292867403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37200173.post-61867709358368240712012-05-18T06:37:30.116-05:002012-05-18T06:37:30.116-05:00Redsoul, you make an excellent point on the Riften...Redsoul, you make an excellent point on the Riften/Rifton thing. Thank you for your thoughtful observations.<br /><br />I haven't encountered Karliah yet, because I haven't pursued the Thieves Guild questline. The first quest you have to in order to be initiated into the guild requires framing my favorite merchant, and I just can't bring myself to screw him over.Anjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12247612996397058730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37200173.post-16341252979605971902012-05-18T04:57:32.023-05:002012-05-18T04:57:32.023-05:00Great review. I agree, as much as the Imperial ver...Great review. I agree, as much as the Imperial version can't be trusted, so too must the "Real" one be questioned. For one thing, I read that she may have actually had a full-blown affair with the Nightingale, creating a bastard line that would eventually lead to Karliah of the Thieves Guild (but again, how far can you trust these texts?). I really like that about the ES series, once they begin to include 'authors' to their notes you can begin to speculate biases based on their upbringing (much like texts in real life).<br /><br />On the Riften/Rifton thing, I think it's Bethesda's way of making a joke on towns/cities names constantly being questioned in historic times - an Imperial guard posted at Riften after the civil war can often say "So is it Riften or Rifton? This place has changed its name so many times, I can't even remember." So I can forgive them for that, since it's more a canon-joke than a grammatic error. <br /><br />All in all, I'd have loved to see some more evidence of Barenziah in a Riften side-quest, especially since these books spend two volumes of her youth in Skyrim. Keep up the good work.Redsoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08874726647292867403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37200173.post-79127118554776826092012-04-09T08:05:59.806-05:002012-04-09T08:05:59.806-05:00thank you for this post, you saved my life.
