Adventurer? I'm too busy earning a living
I don't know how familiar most of you are with Skyrim – my guess is probably not very – but it is in some ways the most bizarre game.
I started my latest incarnation from new, level 1, and he seems to have grown very differently from the first one. But one thing is clear – you can earn a very handy living on Skyrim as a potion maker and blacksmith. Forget all this adventuring rubbish, all that gives you to get you up close and uncomfortable to bandits and undead. I never have liked zombies, even when they're called "draugr" and have glowing blue eyes they give me a pain, and the less said the better about vampires.
So basically, while my character can be bribed to help out someone by killing bandits, he'd far rather make armour, jewellery and potions from stuff he's picked up that cost him nothing and sell them for a stonking profit. So from that point of view, it's an odd game. Like real life, but on a screen.

There is no other news except that I have a taker for my old TV. This is good.
