Contrary to the propaganda, we live in probably the least materialistic culture in history. If we cared about the things of the world, we would treat them quite differently. We would be concerned with their materiality. We would be interested in their beginnings and their ends, before and after they left our grasp.

Can someone fill me in on C0DA? I have no idea what it is or how to read it.

Other than that, I'm about to start a bandit playthrough as a Redguard on PC.

Your'e not alone. From what I can tell, everyone but the Dunmer and the Khajiit die, so some people fly to the moon, and make every reality real or something. It's definitely not canon.

Unlike the communists, it seems that the majority of the denizens of the reach (who are clearly reachmen) seem to agree that they were better cared for/they still care for the poor that are there.

Lol, just got out. I was going to do the Crimson Nirnroot quest, but after 10 minutes and 6 Nirnroot, I gave up.

On an unrelated note, I just found a great, yet boring, Conjuration exploit. First, find a dead body. Then, continually cast Soul Trap. After about eight-ten times, your level in Conjuration. I got from level 31 to level 40 with Nazeem's body alone! Also, I killed Nazeem. And Taarie. They are both huge assholes.

Eh, not really an exploit. You can grind like that, but it's faster to just use conjuration in combat. I use a Bound Bow and a Dremora Lord, and Conjuration levels much faster than farming Soul Trap.

I got 20 of them from my only trip down there so far, but I ate one to learn its effects and slightly reduce my weight. I figure I should go down there again and finish that up, and loot a few of those ruins I passed by, since I was at my carry limit and desperately trying to find a lift.

Related to magic "exploits", leveling Illusion with muffle is ridiculously fast. Cast muffle 1-2 times on lower levels and you advance one level. Even after level 50 you get new level after 3-4 muffles. I don't think it's an exploit, more like broken mechanic.

It's essentially a reflection of how powerful muffle is; the devs thought it would be a largely situational thing that most people wouldn't cast often, but a very useful one, and so they made the magicka cost low but the skill reward high. It would make sense, since the circumstances where you're concerned with your enemies hearing you instead of seeing you are few. But, then someone casts muffle a few times and they're like "shit, xp!" and they walk everywhere casting muffle.

Skill grinding at its greatest. Love it.

This is how I see the Skyrim Civil War:

Stormcloaks: A bunch of White Supremacists and Religious Zealots (They're like the KKK) who will screw over Skyrim if they win, by kicking out anyone else.

Empire: A bunch of whores who sold themselves out to the Thalmor and then oppresses their people by suppressing religious freedom.

Both sides are just equally horrible.
