You should join the Dark Brotherhood or Thieves Guild. Their quests are pretty fun.

Could you explain guilds? Sorry for being full on noob haha

The Thieves Guild is a group of thieves and you get special missions where you have to break into certain places and steal certain things without being found.
The Dark Brotherhood is the same but your an assassin and you have to kill certain people.
And it's fine :xmas:

So many quests so little time is usually the analogy I use to describe this game. I have played, not beat, this game quite a bit. Since the game is pretty much never ending game play options are completely open.

You decide which route you want to go on. I have Skyrim PC & Xbox as I am a modder of save games. In other words I mod save files for people on this site (and several other sites) for Xbox 360 saves. Save game modding can be kind of fun as long as you don't overdue it and eliminate all the fun of the game.

But I suggest you try to play through the game honestly and play as much as possible first before you start modding.

Just play how you want to play, but one tip.

Don't rush through the Main story line, because trust me, if you do that it gets really boring fast.

Try to switch off Main story line > Side quests > Main Story Line, etc.

First you have to open your disc tray, put the game in, and close it, and let it load, then, hit new game, and then have fun playing, oh, and don't try to pet the dragon in the beginning

Start making gold by going to caves and clearing out giants and selling the stuff.

Join the Dark brother or the Thieves guild.Get some gold form there questline's and then buy thing's or rank up your smithing first.
