It's fun, very fun actually. I rarely transform but when I do I tend to go on bandit killing sprees. Something very satisfying about pouncing bandits and ripping their throats out.

The drawbacks about not being able to enter journal seems logical? 1st person view I don't know about. I honestly don't mind it at all.

It really sucks. I shouldn't be forced to

Tried it today and rather liked it. The model and animations look really nifty as well.

Though I would've liked the option of 1st person, it's weird that they didn't include it.

I agree with this...gives more of "bloodthirst, not in my right mind" feeling

Actually, I tested that.. Yup, you maintain the Th'uum even in doggie mode, so yes, you breathe fire..

You cant, you have the werewolf power instead, you do NOT keep it.

I just tried it. Didn't work for me. I couldn't open up the player menu, or even access the quick menu. I'm playing as a Breton.

How does mining not add to the game? You get various ores you can use to make money, or armor.

<.< I think you misunderstood me. I was saying it *did* add to the game. Just like mining, cooking and whatever activities you can now do. It all adds to the game. I wanna say I was being sarcastic... but I wasn't really... even though I was... kinda... errr. Yeah.

I tried it, didn't care for it. After the transformation is finished, I have to go about re-equipping both equipment AND spells/shouts.
Spoiler:
Being forced into it for a Faction isn't fun either...
but I did that once, so I don't HAVE to do it again.

I'd rather be a vampire, even with all the negatives that come with it.
