I've got to admit, I get that giddy Riding-Into-Lawrence feeling whenever I mow down a bunch of them. :evil:

I really think I'm enjoying this game more than Skyrim. This game has many similar features, but seems to be much more streamlined and far less tedious. Everything you pick up in this game is, or at least can be, useful at some level, for example. No knives, forks, cup, plates, etc. Just one example.

Part of this is certainly my new computer, which I should have got six months ago. Skyrim just kicked the shit out of my old 4GB RAM 32-bit system. I had a thousand crashes/dumps and finally had to resort to playing the game at the lowest graphics level, which pissed me off to no end. Can't fault the game for that, but it obviously sucked some of the joy out of the whole experience.

You know that guy in your avatar raped a woman and his bastard child had sex out of wedlock with a blue light bulb, and a tubby man right?

That's why I've switched exclusively to the 360. Other than occasional issue with a save file or something, I NEVER have crashes or stuff like that...

Holy ****ing random loot drops Batman!

I thought that Skill book locations were fixed. There's a +1 Sagecrafting book that appears early in the game and it appears in the same location each and every time.

I was in the Coilsbane Caverns just now, clearing it out as I have so many times before. I open a random chest in the one of the rooms and it contained BOTH a +1 Detect Hidden book and a +1 Mercantile book!

Funny, I recently dropped a small fortune on a new computer, and one my primary reasons for the upgrade was to be able to play Mass Effect 3 without any issues. Hard to believe that on the day it finally came out, I was playing another game until 1:30 in the morning. :D

BTW, is there another level of base armor/weapon components beyond Sylvanite/Trollskin/Hexweave, or is that it?

In answer to my earlier question, yes, there are higher levels of components. Just starting to encounter them at level 31. Just crafted a new rogue hood with a 193 armor rating. I should really be bulletproof when I get a full set of the new stuff. :thumb:

I drop them in my stash. If it will let you drop it, I guess you don't need it for a quest anymore.

Must be an Xbox thing - I just went through there and didn't find shit. The chests I'd opened before were still empty.

I really liked KoA fwiw, once I started it I became obsessed with beating it. But after playing that and nothing else and going back to Skyrim, just the graphics and the detail and everything, it seems more amazing. Skyrim is one of those games where you need a break and switch to another game for a while though.
