I've JUST started Skyrim aswell. So far I have a 1024 gold bounty on my head after a few failed attempts at robbery which lead to mass murder. Pretty much my usual Elder Scrolls experience.

When I got to the first town in Skyrim I set a chicken on fire because I thought it would be hilarious. I proceeded to get mercilessly slaughtered by everybody in the town and their dog. Nords take their chickens seriously.

I see no one has provided you with any mod recommendations, so I'm going to give you some of the essential ones that I use. I won't give you everything I use, because my game is completely fucked up and unstable and I'm sure it's because I've overloaded the game with ridiculously minor mods that I unfortunately now can't live without. So here we go:
A Quality World Map - makes the map screen look so much nicer, as well as adds every major and minor path so it's easier to work out which route to take.
Cloaks of Skyrim & Winter is Coming Cloaks - A small aesthetic change, but I love the new cloaks they add to the game, and it fits the cold climate so well that it now looks strange to me when the NPC's aren't wearing them.
Deadly Dragons - Does exactly what it says, makes the dragons much more of a challenge, not just by giving them health buffs, but they gain new abilities and are much smarter in their tactics. I think it also adds a few extra dragon types, and mods which add creature variety are my favourites.
Enhanced Camera - just a small mod which adds so much to the game, it lets you see you're body in first-person and keeps you in first-person even when sitting down.
Interesting NPC's - adds a huge number of NPC characters in random locations, they sometimes give you quests, but mostly are just there to add ambience and depth to the world.
Realistic Need and Diseases - adds hunger, thirst and sleep requirements, which I find adds a bit of realism and immersion to the game. I can understand if this isn't a feature everyone would enjoy, but you can customise it so it's not as irritating.
Realistic Water Two - My favourite of the main water mods, it makes the water look so much better and changes the paths of some of the rivers so that it flows better.
Skyrim Flora Overhaul - Makes the trees and plants look much better, it doesn't have any performance requirements either which is great.
SkyUI - overhauls the interface for the PC version, which makes it so much easier to navigate the menus.
SMIM - an amazing texture pack which retextures a significant amount of smaller items. It really adds a lot to the world and removes some of the lower quality items.
Skyrim Redone - a major gameplay overhaul, adds new skill trees, rebalances a lot of the game, and just makes the game feel tighter and a lot more complex and enjoyable.
Time on Loading - a ridiculously minor mod which helps me so much, it adds a real-time clock on the loadscreens, so I can see when I've hit 3AM and know it really is time to quit the game...just one more minor quest though...
Frostfall - my number one mod, it adds a much needed survival element to Skyrim by making the cold weather a true element of the game. The clothing you wear now has heat ratings, and you will be affected by the colder weather when traversing the mountains so will need to have firewood and a tent prepared for when a blizzard comes through. It also makes the water deadly in the icier areas of the game, which creates a more realistic and challenging aspect without seeming frustrating.
If you want anymore let me know, this is literally only around 20% of what I actually use.

I just started last night on XBox 360. I just made it to Whiterun. Still not sure what I can take and what will get me in trouble. In the first house after he said make yourself comfortable, I assumed that it was ok to take everything. In the castle I was a bit more timid, but the items did not have a steal sign on them so ok?
I am disappointed in the load times, I am also getting some lagging, especially when I started with the character creation. Really surprising to me on a console.

Resuscitating the thread:
I just cracked this game open last weekend. I picked it up a while ago, but never started because I was intimidated by everything I heard about the size and scope as well as the time drain. I'm playing as one of the cat people, and my weapons of choice are fire in one hand and a sword or axe in the other. I'm several hours into it, made it to Whiterun and the mountain top monastery to learn dragon shouts. I've killed 2 dragons so far.
Everything I heard was right. It's huge, and so much to do, my list of quests is really long and when I play it's 'what do I feel like doing today?'
There are lots of little annoyances though that I had to figure out on my own. Like I almost became a vampire. *That's* why everyone in town said I was looking a little sickly. That wasn't the only disease I had - there were two others.
Other annoyances: The map is shit. They couldn't have put roads on it?
Leveling up paralysis. I'm a little obsessive about my character being well balanced, but there are SO many options to upgrade. pick-pocketing? or conjuring? or blacksmithing? or you know, fighting? Too many choices with armor/weapons, etc. all the damn books, and I have about 50 potions on me.
Carrying only 300 lbs of stuff. This drives me nuts. It's better now that I have accumulated some more gold and not scrounging around, I can leave the iron armor because:
That the 'value' listed for an item is not the actual 'value' when I try to sell it.
My companion poaching my experience points by taking out enemies. I like having them - but c'mon. Stay out of the way.
The combat on the PS3 is a little wonky - and for the first hour or two I really struggled, for some stupid reason I was playing on a harder level - maybe Adept? I am not an adept gamer. Also, the load times are really slow.
Forgetting to save the game frequently enough.
There seems to be a lot of hoops to jump through for upgrading/enchanting weapons. Destroy the original weapon to learn the enchanting, get the new weapon ready, get the gem - oh sorry, you don't have a high enough ability to do this enchantment or smith this weapon improvement.
Those are the complaints, nothing major, and I'm really having fun so far. I'm quite a badass with the bow. And the scenery really beautiful. It amazing how I'll start a quest - okay I have to get to that place, but then end up stumbling on some other dungeon, or crossing paths with someone who sends me somewhere else. 2 hours go by and I'm nowhere near the place I have to be for the original quest.

I played quite a bit over the past two weekends (Jerkassima was out of town) and was able to develop my cat character pretty nicely. I'm probably half way through the main story line, but spent quite a bit of time off on side jobs. I joined the thieves and assassins, but haven't really pursued them, started the bards college and mage college too, but pursued them even less. Still have not made a decision on imperials vs. stormcloaks. Avoided the companions.
For this character I use the strategy of magic in one hand and a sword in the other (I received two awesome swords through side quests: dawnbreaker which lights enemies on fire when I hit them, and dragonbane which deals out shock). I'm really deadly with a bow and enchanted an elven bow with soultrap. I feel like I'm finally able to kick some ass, I have some cash, I have upgraded skills to the point where they are useful (i.e. arcane blacksmith, bow zoom), and no longer need to scrounge every single area for loot. And the best part are the shouts I've learned (fire breathing!) - a thief approached me on the road and after knocking him on his ass with the forcewind, I then torched him - I warned him twice not to mess with me because he didn't have a chance. Now it is time to find that Old Orc who beat the hell out of me several times early in the game.
Revised annoyances: The shop owners not having enough cash on hand to buy all my stuff. I can (and do) fast travel to other towns to unload it, but it's just tedious.
Not being able to carry more still drives me nuts.
The map is still shit, but I downloaded one from the web which shows roads.
There are too many items - do I really need 6 different soul gems? I don't even know the soul size of the things I'm killing that fill them. Or 5 different healing potions? Just have them scale up as a percentage of my health bar so as I get stronger they get stronger.
I keep killing my followers because they are getting in the damn way. The warrior lady in Riften wanted to follow me but I wouldn't let her because I didn't want to make her husband/boyfriend a widower. I also killed Frost, my horse. (That horse actually climbed a wall to kill some enemies on top of it at some fort).
It is the buggiest game I've ever played on the PS3 - it has crashed hard several times.

This is bringing back memories. Agree with most of your complaints. I think the shop owners refresh their gold if you wipe them out every day. You can use companions for pack mules, but it's tedious managing their inventory. I too burned through a number of companions. Then I got one that was unkillable (for potentially spoiler reasons I won't speculate why) and stayed with me to the end of the game. I couldn't keep a horse alive to save my life. I've had more horses than Spinal Tap had drummers. I had a really good run with one, where it was even levelling up with me and capable of holding its own in a fight, then an elder dragon on a mountain top ended that streak. I too loved the bow. Even though I was playing as a nord barbarian, sniping a camp of enemies before they knew what was up was just too much fun.
And you're right; the game is just gorgeous. Solitude might be one of my favorite game locations ever.
Do you want any sort of advice? Not that I'm an expert, but just from experience of my one epic three month playthrough.

I would LOVE some advice - the more practical the better. I've never played any Elder Scrolls games before so it is all kinda new.
I sort of fell accidentally into the strategy I mentioned above (one hand magic, one handed weapon, and a bow for sniping). Two handed weapons were too slow. I carry a shield, but rarely use it. I also carry this staff I found but never use it. I'm happy with a mix of the thieves armor and assassins armor each enhance some different trait (lockpicking/sneaking/bow skills etc).
I didn't even think about using a follower to carry some stuff. Which means I also could have looted them when they died too?
I wish I was better at magic stuff - I forget all of the various things I can do with it, there is a ton!!!! Especially in the heat of a fight.

I can't help you on the magic stuff. My biggest gripe with the Elder Scrolls games is this All Class you can be, where you're a wizard fighter thief assassin all at once. I'm D&D all the way through so I play a more pure fighter class and don't use magic except for healing or light.
Don't worry so much about the main quest. There's no time limit on it, and it's rather anti-climactic anyways. The side quests are almost overwhelming at first but there's a definite turning point in the game when you start to clear them out faster than you get new ones. It's a very front loaded game in that respect where really the first half of the game should just be getting to the cities, getting a lay of the land, and picking up quests but not necessarily resolving them.
I think for levelling up you want to focus on smithing, bows, whatever your primary weapon is, and to some extent sneaking and lockpicking but you don't need to max out. I didn't bother too much with armor skills beyond whatever upgrade makes it lighter for you to carry.
I never could figure out gems beyond just using them to charge weapons up. I don't really like that system either.

I've definitely been focusing on upgrading smithing and archery like you suggested and definitely at the expense of magic. But it seems like there are lots of cool things to try with magic though, I just noticed I have a spell called nighteye to see in the dark, and clairvoyance, to highlight the path I'm supposed to take. I had no idea I even had these. Along with all destruction spells - it seems like I'm missing out. Not like I'm gonna change my ways, but I wish it was easier to use. I guess that's what re-playing is for.
The thing about all the quests I have lined up is I forget what's what and who's who. So grateful for the 'show on map' button of I'd be totally lost.
I did my first real assassin mission and I gotta tell ya, I'm not a good assassin. The lady wanted me to take out some other lady because she hurt her feelings - I couldn't do it.
Anyway - it's fun. Lots of world building (all the books? and exposition?) Totally immersive and I sit down to play for 30 minutes and before you know it 2 hours go by. And I could spend a lot more time than that if I had it.

Well that's the frustrating thing about this whole AllClass approach they take: you can't possibly be effective in all the specialization branches. You can't really just dabble in magic; you have to specialize and really max those branches out (plus choose a race/class that allows for more mana or whatever your magic level is called) and you have to do it from the getgo. The good news is that once you've really topped out in other specialties and are levelling up slower in them, you can just start using magic at even a low level and rack up experience that way because you haven't used it much.
I just can't do the assassin stuff either. If you're okay with spoilers, go read earlier exchanges on page 1 when I ran across the assassin's guild.

I read them.....I didn't even know you could take out the whole guild. So what is it? I could take out a whole cave of bad guys, but as soon as you give a name and a story to ONE of them, have an issue with it.

When that assassin leader had me locked up, telling me to kill one of the captives, i fully intended to do a save, then reload, just to see what would happen if I attacked her. Instead, I decapitated her in one blow. That was just too cool to not let ride and one of my favorite moments of the entire game, so I went with it.

I thought I remembered reading that they removed the level cap? So you could, theoretically, grind out enough levels and perks to make yourself equally effective in each specialization, limited only by your real-life patience. Barring that admittedly tedious-sounding task, you can always cheat; just as Oblivion allowed you to make the game-breaking 100% Chameleon armor set, Skyrim allows you to make armor sets that reduce the casting cost of 2 entire schools of magic to zero. All you'd need to do would be to pick which two schools you wanted on that particular armor set, and then make as many armor sets as you want to have schools of magic covered. I keep one set for Destruction and Restoration and another for Destruction and Illusion; I don't like them, but you could totally make sets that include Alteration and/or Conjuration if you like those schools more than I do. What this allows you to do is completely ignore leveling Magicka or taking (almost) any spell-skill perks in favor of leveling Health and Stamina and taking all the kickass crafting-skill perks, while still being a far better mage than someone who specialized in spell skills. That's good times, man. It doesn't feel quite as much like cheating as the 100% Chameleon set did, but it's pretty impressive. I'm not nearly this far into the game to take advantage of advanced armor like this - I just got the steel smithing perk. But let me tell you about my latest adventure as an assassin last night. When I think of assassin, I think of ninja types, slipping in, taking out the target and slipping out before anyone knows they were even there. That was not me. I had to take out some bandit leader in a cave, so I sneak in, promptly trip over a metal pot while looting a room, set off a flame throwing booby trap, wake up a dude sleeping nearby who turns out to be tougher than expected, start running away but towards some other dudes and end up in this massive 5 on 1 brawl. It ended with me torching every motherfucker around with my dragon breath and limping out barely alive.

Sneak into a bandit camp, SCORE! they're asleep, I sneak forward to get the first one, and trip over some noisemaker alarm, then I'm running for my life. But then that does make it much more cathartic and enjoyable later on, when you're doing quad damage with a crossbow, and you take out the whole camp from a distance.

Like encumbrance, this is another one of the things I just don't care for in these games, for exactly the reason you state. It's not actually stopping me from doing anything. I'm going to get my cash. It's just going to take me longer to get it. However, in Fallout 3 this mechanic was kind of fun, because at some point you can literally obtain all of the wealth. ALL of it. You have ALL of the caps. And that's fun.

Alright - I think I'm a little more than halfway through the main story (I just got an elder scroll and had to fight a major dragon - which took forever because of a damn glitch in the game, I wasn't doing any damage to it!!). Btw, what was up with that huge blackreach area where the elder scroll was? Everytime I go into a new area I'm blown away with how huge it is - especially the dwarf ruins. Also, I just joined the nightingales - they gave me some amazing armor and weapons.
So my issue now is decision paralysis. I have acquired many cool weapons and armors, but how do you choose which one to use? Stupid encumbrance. I love the Dawnbreaker sword, but it's not as powerful as the Dragonbane sword, Chillrend sword and the Nightinggale blade. So Dawnbreaker is sitting in my house collecting dust. Same with some of the armors - I crafted/enchanted/found some great stuff, but I can't possibly use it all.
Finally, I'm so slow at playing, it takes forever for me to clear a dungeon. At this rate I won't be done until another month.
Edit: Forgot to ask what were your favorite weapons?

Yeah, the underground dweomer ruins, and then the cities, are just amazing. Even though I'm done with the game I don't think I've done much exploration in them beyond whatever item I went searching them for. But there's a huge one that I didn't do much with at all that I need to dig up. Almost all the pieces armor I have has some kind of strength/encumbrance boost to it so I can carry alot. So I rotate through a set of weapons. Mostly I use the sweet, sweet fully upgraded dwarven crossbow from the Dawnsguard add on to snipe before enemies even know I'm around. I have a loaded up Blades sword with a Stamina draining gem for close combat. Whenever I'm duking it out with something big I pull out either my dragonbone battleaxe or greatsword. For undead I have Auriel's bow and Dawnbreaker. I have a couple houses, and they have some nice little display rooms set up for other weapons and armor I've acquired. I also have a chest in one of them that has all my older low level junk, like the swords/shields you get for finishing an arl's quest.

I just don't have the time to put in the hours that this game requires! I haven't come across most of those weapons you mention, pairesta - it seems like I have forever to go. I did pick up a pretty sweet mace the other day from the former owner the talking dog (a daedric god?). I don't know if this is a good strategy, but I have been madly upgrading my smithing perks with each level up, trying to craft dragon armor. I'm getting there. My stealth and bow skills are pretty good too and there isn't much useful upgrading for one-handed weapons. I haven't done anything with magic. So here's another question - I've had this humble dude following me for a while, and he's really grown on me. So I go to this shrine east of windhelm and they want me to sacrifice him in honor of that god (boethis or something like that). Has anyone done that? Is there a good gift at the end of this quest? I really don't want to kill him. I'm seriously considering just wiping out all the cultists instead. Also: (SPOILER!!!!!) I was just told to kill Paarthunax, the good dragon. Fuck that. Do I have to? It seems like it is a major questline. So why is the game making me do this unpleasant stuff I don't want to do?

A critique I'd have against the game is that it really, really forces you to make bad choices, and punishes you by being more boring if you don't. I also didn't kill Paarthunax, and pissed off the blades, and so apparently missed other stuff with them. Ditto all the assassins/cannibals/cults you run across: do something unpleasant for them, or lose that whole questline and more stuff to do. (BTW, If you were are the kill Paarthunax part of the game though, you are pretty much done with the main questline. ) I also didn't do the Boethian cult's request and fought them. It's a really tough fight. Make sure you are maxed out when you do it. You have a couple more opportunities with Boeithia to right course but all of them involved murdering innocent people so I refused. Get going on that Dawnguard quest!

I didn't feel like paying 60 bucks or whatever for Fallout 4, and more for DLC later, when it's all just going to go down in price in a year, but all of Skyrim is available for 20, and I saw this thread, so I took the plunge. Installing now, but tbh, I don't think I'll actually play until I wrap up Wasteland 2.

Waiting a couple years and then getting the GOTY edition for $20 is the way to go. Yes, it's agonizing and you're hopelessly behind the times, but after buying Fallout 4 new, and finding ALL OF THE BUGS in it (Preston just says the same thing to me over and over you guys! I can't even open an inventory screen with him now!), I'm switching back. yep, Dragon Age Inquisitions GOTY is gonna be $20 real soon, right? RIGHT?
Anyways, eager to hear about your Skyrim exploits!

So after completing Fallout 4, I was casting about in restless boredom and decided to fire up a new Skyrim game, playing it as a "Tales from Skyrim" that some people suggested at TOC: play it sandbox style, and don't advance the main quest. I'm a female elven thief with aims of taking over both the assassin's and thieves' guilds. So, normally I'm not smart enough to do this sort of thing, but I stumbled upon a pretty major hack early on. It's probably common knowledge, but I was inordinately proud of myself for being so smrt. Get Faendal to follow you. Amass about 500 or so gold (easy to do just by collecting and selling off all the armor and weapons from dead imperials after the dragon attack at the start of the game). Ask him to train you in archery, use up all your gold. Open a trade screen with him, get your gold back, and ask him to train you again. I went from level 2 to 7, and got up to 51 Archery before he stopped.

Well, that and collecting all the cheese in the world for my impressive cheese room, which is full-to-bursting with cheeses that spill out into the hallway. The only part I don't enjoy is when I have to go buy more supplies and then I ride back to Lakeview Manor and get attacked by two bears, a giant, an Elder Dragon, and 3-4 Bandit Outlaws. HOW DID EVERYONE FIND OUT WHERE I LIVE? There's not even a road leading to this place! Plus you'd figure someone would have learned after the fourth or fifth instance to maybe avoid the weird mansion with a conspicuous pile of dragon bones and various carcasses in the pit in the backyard. Nothing made me quite so happy as finding out I could tell my bard to play instrumental music only though. Holy hell, most song lyrics in Skyrim are depressing.
