Jonric: Please describe a location, item, monster or some other game element that is not on the critical path, but that you consider especially interesting, intriguing or enjoyable.
Mark Nelson, Designer: In testing, I've been finding a lot of things interesting. For example, I learned that if you artificially inflate your Acrobatics skill to about 1,000 you can travel Incredible Hulk-style across the landscape, jumping from city to city. This is fun. There are some pretty cool things to see playing the game straight up, too. Some of my favorite locations in the game are the Daedric Shrines. The architecture and lighting is dark and otherworldly, they often are filled with killer creatures, and many of them have these incredibly huge statues dominating the center room. Plus, there are some sweet quests that start in these places (if I do say so myself).
