hard to explain why but it seems that If i get a majority of new things such as new equipment, I tend to mix and match all of them taking forever with it and taking me out of my Roll playing mood.
and /or I just feel like I have no goal anymore after completing what I was trying to get.
and for the Hack and Slash discussion here, Close-range combat is a bit more than that as I've experienced

for Example : this chief Bandit kept killing my older brother, I knew what he was doing wrong (Blocking at the wrong time and not bashing),
So he let me try and I successfully killed it on the first try

although the Method is not that hard, it's still a bit more than just running in and pressing the Attack button

I'm just trying to decide which daedra I should 'happen across.'
