Exactly. The fact that you're able to simply pay away a murder should make killing them face-to-face all the more viable an option. Take some pride in your assassinations.

to op
yeah the ai is still last gen they need 2 overhaul it

It's not so far fetched actually.

Let us pretend a guy walks into your house right now and tells you straight he was hired to kill you. Which option would you choose?

a) Turn your back on him and run? Feel that itch between your shoulders? It mark's the spot where his knife or arrow will land.
Yell for help and hope someone barges through the door and get to him before he has time to cut your throat?
c) Decide that a and b will get you killed anyway so you might as well go down fighting?

Besides, it's much more satisfying to see the realization dawn in their eyes just before you plung a dagger into their hearts. It's almost as cool as watching the life fade from their eyes as their blood drains from their body. Ah, tis exciting to be a sadisitic homicidal maniac.

I love the Dark Brotherhood! in every Elder Scrolls I have ever played, I have always been an Assassin. In Morrowind, I rocked it out in the Morag Tong. In Oblivion I was a Listener to be feared. In Skyrim I am the most lethal Assassin that Tamriel has ever seen.

I will make different characters just to complete different quest lines. Mage for the Mages Guild, Warrior for the Companions, etc.

But all of my characters, every single one of them, are in the Dark brotherhood (or other relevant Assassin's Guild). The Shrouded and Ancient Shrouded Armor is some of the best in the game, and the story lines are some of the best written with the most deeply developed characters.

I love being able to sneak up close and slit the throat of my prey, and even the stalking of them (shadowing them around a whole city, just waiting for that perfect time to strike) is exciting to me.

Love the Elder Scrolls, and especially love the way that Bethesda does their Assassins!

I don't really like doing that, the only time I did was with the Khajiit caravan guy. I didn't want to kill him so I made it seem like he started it, in my mind at least. >.>

C. And believe me, you're not going to kill me before I kill you.... Assuming a little old lady is an easy mark WILL get you dead every time.
