Daedric and Orcish look pretty good, I find.
Steel plate is the shittiest looking armor ever, however.

I love the way Orcish armor looks, on both males and females. I didn't get a chance to see Daedric or Dragon, but out of everything else, Orcish was probably my favorite graphic (and Dwarven my least favorite). Does anyone else find it strange that platemail armor is in the light armor perk tree?
After 40 hours of play, my ailing desktop finally gave out. At least it died playing Skyrim, right? I ordered a new desktop, but it won't be delivered for two weeks. This sucks, a forced vacation from Skyrim...

I'm just waiting for a mod that improves the look on females.
(By 'improves the look' I do not simply mean 'removes huge chunks of armour until they're left with a tight daedric thong and some daedric nipple tassles which oddly give huge amounts of armour')

Do you guys often use the companions/housecarls/adoring fans much? All of mine have been 'Wait here' from the off.
I've taken the chick from Azura shrine with me everywhere, she has saved my as soo many times. The only thing that i didnt take her on was the DB missions, she gets in the way of assassinations.
Does anyone remember this guy?

I quite like Elven Armour, but as a mage I lament how the most awesome robes so far (Thalmor Mage ones) are goddamn awful.

Has anyone else noticed that if you are a Nord with the Dwarven set of armor (minus the helmet, though it does sort of fit with the eyeholes and such) you look like a Space Wolf with Artificer Armor?
If it doesn't sell you at first, try crouching in 3rd-person...looks exactly like the guys crouching in the DOW2 intro when they are hunting Eldar.
I really, really don't like these Thalmor guys. As Talos is very similar to Sigmar, I find them unbearable, and make a point to murder them whenever I encounter them.
The Markarth conspiracy quests were excellent.

If I could, I would join the Thalmor in a heartbeat. It's good to be bad.
I'm pondering making an Altmer to see how Thalmor representatives react to me.

They react the same as to any other character. Complete and utter contempt. Until your Frost Atronach punches them in the face.

I really love the look of the Dwarven armour especially the helmet !
Ebony is also very nice, as is Deadric !
I'm not a big fan of dragon bone armour to be honest, I got the full set on my Nord and meh, he doesnt look to cool.
Also, is there any varying robes other than the style of the apprentice and and novice style ones ? I wish we could get ones like the Grey beards wear !

Nightingale is also one of the best (if not the best) light armour...
It also makes you look slightly like Batman...

I don't think your character actually speaks, you simply pick text options and hear the reply.

You very rarely actually have a voice in an RPG...
You tend to be the 'nameless hero' despite what you actually name yourself...
I called my Dark Elf, Ernie the Rat King, for instance. No one has batted an eye lid.
