It is great that all MMOs have battles all over the place. As for myself, i get bored of just fighting and being an errand boy or messenger. I would enjoy doing my own thing as to gain levels in mining for example. A level structured mining, chop trees, make fire out of chopped wood, cooking your own food with it while leveling all these. Those little details get me addicted to such games. Seeing that there is more to do than just run around killing stuff for no reason, on MY opinion of course.
I say there are enough MMOs out there where that is all there is to do, kill and level up and not enough voice acting. But I believe that Elder Scrolls should add these skill to level up. Not too easy to gain XP or it would be like a chore.
Basically these skill: (they are most definitely familiar from a certain online game)
Mining:
The higher the rank= better ores and smelt bars
Fishing:
The higher the rank= catch bigger and/or rare fish,
Farming:
The higher the rank= raise cows, chickens, ect. and grow better ingredients
Chop wood:
The higher the rank= chop stronger types of trees for better wood/logs, better arrows
Fire making:
The higher the rank= start quicker fires for things that need to be used in crafting, (a bit irrelevant when you know fire spells, but still fun to have)
Crafting
The higher the rank= create clothing, archery material, things that don't have to do with smithing
These are just somethings. But it will definitely make the game more "alive".
