I played as a High Elf sorcerer to take advantage of the broken spellcrafting system to make my character, Hollyemita Starhawk, nearly invincible by way of strong shield spells. I think I beat it; after I got the 8th piece of the Staff of Chaos I did not get any cutscenes from Ria Silmane; I went to the Imperial Palace and grabbed the Jewel of Fire and the endscene started but the game crashed (so I watched it on Youtube).
Overall the game is tedious as hell. All of the retro-reviews point out how the game has this enormous, procedurally-generated world with a ton of NPCs but still is quite empty and devoid of personality. The dungeons are ridiculous, convoluted labyrinths. Even navigating the cities is difficult, they have a ton of buildings but just trying to find an inn or a weapons store is such a chore.
I have never played an Elder Scrolls game before and I wanted to see what the fuss was about. I would like to try the sequels which are generally regarded as superior.
