Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Adventures

So I've played a little bit more of the game, and I am really starting to enjoy it. I also wish that I had a more powerful machine as this game can look REALLY impressive in some areas. I have an Alienware P4 3.2 Ghz w/ 1 GB of ram and an ATI 9800 video card. Far from a slouch, but it's far from able to render this game in full detail in the outdoor areas. I'll be satisfied to play that game at 1024 x 768 with some of the details turned down so I can enjoy the absolutely huge and engrossing game world and story line.

Just this morning, I played for about 30 minutes and branched off from the main story now that Martin is safe in the Cloud Ruler Temple. I walked around the Imperial City a bit in the Elven District poking around in some shops and breaking into a few houses stealing a little bit of loot. I leveled up to level two after my battles in Oblivion and Kvatch after finding the Inn and getting some rest. Then, I bumped into a guard and he could tell I had been stealing (how?) and I had to pay a fine and hand over all my contraband.

Now realizing I have no more lock picks and wasn't doing a good job anyway, I ventured back along the path between Weynon Priory and Kvatch, which I had ridden rather than used fast travel and I had come across an old Fort that had a dungeon in it. So that's where I am now adventuring and will update you on my progress and what I find, if anything interesting.
