I wasn't exactly sober when I crossed the Tundra so it made for an epic adventure. I walked the path west from Whiterun to get to the Alik'r until I felt i'd be faster to cross the plain. I ended up walking close to a giants camp site. First time i've seen a giant to I approach him. He gets up and starts waving his club in the air trying to scare me off...it worked. I left him to his business and continued on. I crossed two more giants herding mammoths who, even though I couldn't talk to them, seemed alot friendlier than the last one (or atleast more apathetic to me).

It even felt like the Tundra's the perfect spot for these giants. It's like a huge playground for them where they can chill and not be bothered by too many people. In fact, every location i've been to seems very natural. I cant wait to see what else is out there around skyrim. Bethesda did a pretty good job.

I love it too!

I've spent about 15 of my 25 hours in the Tundra just hunting, I have about 200 varied pelts in my Whiterun house haha.

Yeah i was simple amazed by all the different terrain, tundra is by far my fav so far. Running into roaming giants and the Saber cats trying to eat ya, like a overhanging rock ledge with a bunch of dead guys and there camp stuff destroyed where two sabers where in the tundra.

So far i've only been around the Whiterun / Riverwood area, I went to the Northwest mountains / coast (very majestic!), around the throat of the world and up to the Greybeards, and around the southern area of Ivengard.

I think i'm going to the marshes next, so I cant wait to get unsober again and adventure in the new area!
