I'm a little sick and tired of all the wasted money I've spent on games over the years and Im not a kid anymore so I don't have much time to play. I got an xbox not too long ago and have three games that I love (Amped 2, Morrowind and Knights of the Old Republic) and a few I tired of quickly and traded back to EB for store credit. Now I have enough credit to get a really fantastic game, and I will settle for nothing less. So level it with me, alright.
Is this a game that is long, hard to beat but not too too hard, full of gameplay freedom and chances to explore, fairly good graphics (I've heard bad things in this department) good stories, humorous situations but not silly or stupid, has a good character creating system, has loads of cool weapons, any customizable items (like Morrowind), different clothes and armor types, bad guys that aren't too annoying, doesn't freeze up allow you to fall through floors or jump through ceilings and get STUCK (I am getting VERY specific here) allows your character evolve, interesting NPCs that remember you from one hour to the next, different situations for different types of characters should I choose to play different ways....
AND is it the kind of game where it is (really) hard to completely screw up your chancing of winning after investing many many hours into a character (because if this happens I am highly likely to become so enraged I will do serious damage to my xbox by pounding on it or snapping the stupid game in half. This has happened before. Yes, I have anger management issues. :grr: HELP ME!!!

The game is long yes, it has many challenges including well done puzzles. It does allow full freedom, you could kill everyone in the game if you wanted and still be able to finish it. Most all objects are interactive and can be moved around,whether they have a purpose or not. Also I don't know what you heard about the graphics, but they're superb if you ask me, really well done. The Character models can sometimes be iffy, but it still looks really good. And you won't have anything to complain about there. There are glitches, but most if not all are resolved in the latest patch.
I've never experienced clipping issues, such as falling through floors or ceilings or whatever, nothing like that. NPC's are fairly smart, they will remember you, but don't expect a whole lot of conversation from townspeople going about their merry way.
Finally, it's rather hard to screw up anything with this game, you can level up in such a way it makes things harder, but never impossible.

And yes, you do need anger management if you do such thing..
For heavens sake man, it's a game.. It's meant for fun, if you take things that seriously maybe you should see seriously seek out some help.
