Most dungeons that do involve getting a word are long, but I don't consider them very long (nothing longer than you might find in Dragon Age- albeit that game has completely different mechanics and isn't nearly as large in terms of number of dungeons). I had one bandit quest I got lucky, and the first mob I ran into was the boss for the quest. Most general bandit caves aren't too long.
I think I'm getting the hang of dragons, I'll have to work on resist fire/resist cold potions. Do I need resist cold for a dragon though? I'm a nord, so I already have some cold resist. Fire resist would be nice. I took on a dragon by myself (with my henchman) without too much trouble, but I did have to quaff several minor healing potions. I find my lightning and fire spells don't do much damage, and I did the best damage with my enchanted one handed axe.
So I got to thinking I have this game in hand, and then I get surprised by a snow sabre cat while heading up to the mage college up north, and he 3 shots me. I was sneaking too, but sometimes they get the jump on you. I can take them out without too much trouble if I spot them first. I wanted to take the long dangerous journey up to the mage college to hopefully get some better spells, and training. Although I ran out of gold for training. The snow wraiths were a little tough, but not too bad if you don't fight more than 2 at a time.
I'm like level 13 now. Or maybe 14, I can't remember. I finally am getting enough perks to be somewhat powerful. I've been working on my alchemy, but I still need to make more potions. I never seem to have the right ingredients for the potions I actually want to make.
For some reason I am running into mobs that are supposed to be friendly or neutral, but they are hostile to me. I'm not sure why that is. Thalmas dudes are one example, and then I run into a NPC named Farkas who was hostile to me. I think because I fried him when I was attacking the bear he was attacking. Not only that, but he didn't die, he would kneel for several seconds, then spring back to life and attack me again. I had to reload that one. I don't want him to die I don't think.
