My husband's in the beta. It took us like 4 days just to download the stupid thing, and it's been hard to log in. It looks really awesome so far, but he's been hogging it and I don't get to play. :d
I sneaked around, found unused corners, and reached the end of the Skyrim version of the game.
I even tried to get myself eaten by a big fishy thing, but either it was not yet implemented, or I lost my patience. There is an abandoned fisherman's hut that said go north for the fellow. There was also a skeever curse, Oblivion thieves, a prisoner, a raftwreck, hunters, polar bears, and a booby-trapped tomb-ish that wasn't boring (admittedly, that was also a highlight for Skyrim)
So ticked that I missed it because my laptop that could properly handle it is being worked on....earliest I'll have it back is tomorrow if the weather clears up.
I'm only a man with a candle to guide me
I'm taking a stand to escape what's inside me
A monster, a monster
