She's about as much of a non entity as you can get in Skyrim.

Played it for some 100+ hours and as great as its characters/dialogue/missions were (though I can hardly remember any of the side missions, same goes for characters -but then I do have a pretty naff memory) the game just cannot compete with Skyrim when it comes to the random moments leaving you speechless and gawking in amazement stakes. In that sense Skyrim is just on another level compared to Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

O that's true, for sure. I won't even try to refute that, I actually agree with that. It's just that there's a huge blackhole in my gameplay experience of it because I just don't feel as involved in the gameworld due to the things it does lack.

I'm still playing it, I feel I can only play it in small short bursts though before I get bored. Games like Kotor 2 and The Darkness, where they have a shitload of technical flaws or just plain annoying gameplay elements, their story, characters, dialogue, quests and plotlines went a looooooooooooong way for it to overcome those flaws and deliver an amazing game on the whole.

Skyrim is still exceptional, an exceptional 8/10 game, and it misses out on a 10 because of what it lacks. I'm loathe to uninstall it in the fear that I may actually miss a good plotline or quest, and I have to say that 1 out of every 15 quests I've done, has actually been pretty great.

Oh I wasn't saying she was memorable, just that I remember her name due to spending 80% of the game with her. Ulfric too: he's not a memorable character be he's so prominent that I can remember his name. Everyone else just falls into Oblivion though.

I'm sure I'll get back into it... Right?

Edit - played it a bit more last night for about an hour. Was a bit better but still not feeling it too much. I only played 'cause I was strawberry floating bored. Hell, I was even going to play the BF3 campaign initially, before I remembered that I'd traded it in.

I'm sure many of you have seen the headless horseman ghost riding about? Is there a quest related to him or anything? I try to follow him but can't keep up and he doesn't speak.
