First time I had that happen I was fiddling around tryin out the basic spells and I froze someone's dog, only to have the entire town go apeshit.

I've made it a point to steal nothing... except ingredients.

Love finding new ones to eat, it's getting harder.
I wanna find a mushroom that messes with your video for the next 8 hours of play

I stole some stuff from these people in a village. all the villagers came and beat me up and I died. XD serves me right

Usually if you put your fists or weapon down they stop attacking. I just bribe the guards now.

Yea I remember my first walk through in a town. Killed someones chicken (didn't even know it belonged to someone) and the whole town acted like I just raped and killed the Jarl's only daughter.

I killed a chicken once, and it said I had a bounty.. then immediately said I had killed all witnesses and everything was kewl.

So far the only major glitch I have come across, fingers crossed.

I'm surprised by how much fun I have dicking around with vanilla skyrim.

I can enjoy myself for hours just exploring and amassing wealth, and the depth of the crafting really makes this game for me.
I really find myself liking the mechanics of the alchemy/enchanting/smithing skills and very early on I just said screw the main questline and started exploring and gathering up materials to improve my stuff or generate cash.

At lower levels, I hadn't left riverwood yet and was already kitted out in full dwarven gear with multiple enchanted weapons for various circumstances just from roaming a bit and killing/looting any bandit or large animal who moved. Once i learned soul trap, the enchanting really opened up for me and the combat became a lot less repetitive because of the options I was able to give myself with my various new magical weps.

By the time I made it to Whiterun and became a thane, I was working with a fairly wealthy and well equipped character and I had no trouble working over my first dragon. After some poking around the nearby countryside for a bit I had found a spell tome for "transmute" and figured out how to mine iron ore, along with killing some random encounter dragons and I haven't wanted for money since.

I find myself caring more about finding daedra hearts and other useful ingredients than I do about most of the quests, but considering how much fun it is to poke around and roam the countryside, I don't mind it.

afaik, I have not run into any quest breaking bugs, which is a first for me in a Bethesda game.

Skyrim with mods can look quite beautiful...oh and NSFW, there's buttocks.
