yea mang I is in agreance with the agree-ers who hve agreed to agree

I find Bethesda games to always seem overwhelming at first but after a while the gameplay becomes natural. Best to just relax and let the game happen rather than try to force yourself to master every aspect right from the get go.

I do wish they'd add a bit more detail. A lot of the quests felt like something I'd find in World of Warcraft. =|

I find doing the misc quest usually jogs my memory. That said, it wouldn't be too much to ask for a little description such as, 'You met M the L and she asked you to retrieve G'

I too loved the way Morrowind handled the journal. Though, I will admit if I stepped away from the game for a few weeks I would be absolutely lost as to what I was doing, what quests I was on, and what I had completed.

I would propose a mix with the best of each. Give us the look and descriptions from Morrowind, but instead of an alphabetical topics tab like Morrowind, replace that with a list of the current quests you have acquired and completed like Skyrim. Once selected it would consolidate all entries from your journal for reference.

For instance: Say, over the two-hundred pages of entries you have in your journal, there are five spread out about a specific quest. If you select the quest you will only see those specific entries. So you would skip from page 15 to 24 to 37 and so on.

As for the game being overwhelming, that is what I love about huge open world RPGs.
