Here's a blog I've been reading since last week; I think it portrays the game very well and only wish it were so realistic...;D Link...scroll all the way down and read the first post, that's all it took to get me hooked!

That's quite good, i must say i didn't read it all because day two has told me something i didn't know, could be classed as a spoiler or more that i just never hung around long enough to get the tax collector business, but now i shall have to go see about that one ;D Anyway i've bookmarked it and i shall read the whoile thing sometime What's fun about it is that you know it all and can just picture him standing on the lighthouse waiting for Fargoth.

...it gets updated every weekday I knew about the taxman, but I didn't have a confrontation with Vodunius Nuccius; I wonder is he in the bar? ...or on the street? ...that's the only one I *haven't* done in Seyda Neen...

Ah...thanks! I'm surprised you didn't do the tax one...I first found the body when searching for the Mentor's Ring... Then I actually DID the mission with another character and spent AGEs searching for it, only to realize I'd passed it by a spearlength! EDIT: Crosspost Regan, glad you like it...

Mentor's Ring I heard 'latest rumors' about it but never gone further. Is it constant effect?

You know i don't very often ask the latest rumours, it never occurs to me, probably why i never did the tax man one. I hadn't heard of the Mentor's Ring either

I am now the proud owner of the Mentor's ring ;D Also been playing with the FPS optimiser, and found you can get some excellent cinematic effects using on the fly FOV adjustment. Try it out and 'fraps' your greatest moments Also, for those of us with good graphics cards but worse eyes, theres a slider at the bottom of the misc/2 page which scales up the ingame interface, text and all.

Yes, it's Field Of View, and by on the fly I meant 'as you play'. You can assign keys to alter it in the fps optimiser, and when in game you can zoom in and out ;D I now know that pauldrons are rendered in 1st person

Mines already set like that i think, if i scroll my mouse wheel it zooms in and out I also have hide small objects activated, that caused me real grief once though as i was looking for something underwater and couldn't see it. Soon as i turned that off and went back there it was

I think it's 'view distance' which is bound to the mouse wheel. FOV is the width and height of what you see, if you've ever been a werewolf you'll know what I mean EDIT: my typing is abysmal
