Well, I suppose. My previous experience in video games had been limited to all things Nintendo, though, so as far as I was concerned, it was epic.

In. Smash. Out. Best way to do it.
As a level 26 argonian mage, he was the hardest battle in the game. I fought him for about 10 minutes just watching him restore his health over and over. Then I thought, hey, I have a staff that paralyzes for 8 seconds and has 40 uses. Things that make you go DOH!

My favorite moment was when I decided to attack Sheogorath and fell a long way down to my death after he teleported me. :mrgreen:

I'm in jail and am sneaking out, being the gray fox I had to, repeat had to, Make sure I "visited" the guards barrack, now I've done this a billion times with out them ever knowing, and then...
well this hapeind

I go in and they all are facing away form me talking and what not
(and it must of been every guard in town)

MC: "Ha these guys never see me"
Captain of the guard: "Ok every lets do some drills"
"About FACE!"
ME: "..."
A bit later letter I walk out with two broken swords, drank a lot of potions, poisoned half of them, and used that nuclear axe thing you get form the DB mer cent (the one with only one charge)

and was walking away felling great then BAM
I go all rag doll
just in time to see the cojour above my cold lifeless body

Part from that, watching the dinner party guests run around the castle butt naked. It also got the guards so they were running around the castle naked looking for me... hehe :)

Cliché, but the first time I exited the sewers. Vilverin, Lake Rumare, the gleaming Jerralls, and a rundown little dock in front of me... Forever defined the game for me.

Oh, wait, also when I looked up at the night sky. Why... why are there two moons? I was right near Niben bay, and it was gleaming and... My, it was cool.

Sure, coming out of the sewers was nice, Gazing up at the best in-game starry sky was breathtaking, but one day, I set out from Bruma in eary morning, around 3:00 game time, and scaled the Jerall mountains to the east. It was a personal goal, as they were the tallest mountains I could see, and going from peak to peak was treacherous. When the Sun rose and I was at the tallest summit, the view was nothing short of spectacular. After working to get there, fighting timber wolves and bears, no other moment compared to seeing Cyrodiil like that.
