Been playing Skyrim to exhaustion these past three days (since I've had a break on college work). While I've been loving every bit from it, one of the main gripes from the previous ES games is still present.

You. Gain. Levels. Too. Damn. Fast >_>

Seriously, i'm just focusing on 4 skills (One-Handed, Smithing, Blocking and Heavy Armour), which are at level 69, 90 (I'm starting to make Daedric Epic equipment), 62 and 54 respectively and i'm already at level 30. And i'm still doing side-quests on Windrun (doing the last of the Companions quests now), haven't gone to another major city, other than Magrath because of the Sanguine's quest and I've still 75% of the map to explore...

I just hope a levelling mod gets released before I play my thief/assasin character >_>

Then again Skyrim 's levelling was most likely made for the less obsessive gamer  , How you do the levelling for  someone who has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the games and said himself that he's played  it to exhaustion for three days , my only answer is to slow down and not to rush.

Having said that maybe they should look at what difficulty people  are playing , and change how quickly you level up  based off that,so that veterans don't feel like they're getting way ahead of the game .
