Its ok, my room overlooks the front door, and I have a pot of oil simmering away here so if he doesn't deliver it then I shall simply pour the oil over him and kill him to death.

CURSES!
Foiled again.
Well, I'll see what he brings first and then decide on the punishment to mete out. If its another bill then it may be severe. If its Oblivion, he may live.
For now.

My sweeped up copy has crashed about 7-8 times so far
Anyone else had any problems?
Other than that the game is superb and very very big.

However, I am being a good lad today and not installing it till I've done quite a bit more reading. The temptation is almost overwhelming, but I will not cave!

Are you reading to raise a particular skill level?

Umm, well. It'll be raising my "Knowledge of matters relating to my dissertation" level, so yes.

Actually, mine has been remarkably bug free. The only times its crashed were once when I had exited; it closed *then* crashed, curiously, and once when I alt-tabbed out whilst it was loading a new area. This upset it. A lot.
Other than that, its been solid as a rock, and bloody quick too. If only more games were made this will

Yes, and mine is the proper version. It's crashed about 6 times now - I can't even get out of the fucking cell at the start

Just installed it now. Character screenies to come later. I'm expecting I'll play a Wood Elf Thief/Assassin/Ninja because it was my favourite character in Morrowind. Following that is likely to be an Orc

Oh yeah, heres something Berk put me on to.
http://www.facegen.com/
This is the software used to render the character's faces in the game, including the main player's one. If you have a photograph of your face from the front and one from each side in profile, it will render your face. Although in the (free) demo you can't save the outcome, you can note all of the slider settings, and recreate your own face fairly accurately for your character in the game.
The outcome itself is horribly realistic, especially if you chose to use the textures from the photo to be used on the render because it then adds stubble, moles etc.
