I regret soo much.

Stupid names, stupid classes. Super-leveling my mages. the dark brotherhood, fighters guild-not worth it. buying every house then storing all of my stuff somewhere, can't find it. and of course, becoming a vampire only to realize they suck.

Be the most hated character in oblivion? you know mine is stuck in deepscorn staring at the water exit. somehow he followed me down there and when i told him to leave he just looks at the door. Is it's underwater nature make him think it's invalid? Well I'm sure he'll get along great with the vampire assassin.

Sometimes I regret using efficient leveling on some characters..took all the fun out of the game for me even though it made it easier to defeat enemies.

I agree. When you get high enough level you get all the loot money you need from people anyway. I find it only really needing to be taken to 50 so you can buy and sell easier and buy some hard to obtain stuff.

Thinking - on my first playthrough - that a tent counted as a closed space and going to sleep in there while taking health damage as a Stage 75 vampire... I stuck in an interminable process of dying and resurrecting and dying again... Need I add that I only had one save made for that character? Sigh, greenhorn times... :roll:

I know right, damn arena rules. I wish you could break them and loot the dead bodies of your opponents. I'd be happy to serve time in jail for that right. :Twisted Evil:

Whenever I did the arena and the opposite team had great weapons I had been looking for hours and I always thought "woohoo I'm gonna have a new awesome weapon" and then I remembered I can't loot them. It got me everytime...
I stopped doing the Arena quests because of what happens after you finish it
Spoiler:
if you kill the arena champion you get invited to join the DB
and thats not good if you're roleplaying a character :?

Not if you don't do his quest. I did it myself and ignored the request, but my brother just went ahead and killed the poor guy without putting his mind at ease.

I can't ignore quests, its a pet peeve of mine. I hate having a cluttered/busy quest menu with unfinished quests. If its on there I have to do it lol.
