No mana, they just have their own cooldown

I kinda wish theyw ould divide the shouts up into a few different schools. the cooldown is a tad long when you use all 3 words.

and what are dragon souls used for? I thought you needed the souls to use the shouts (requiring to kill more dragons to use the shouts more)

To unlock the shouts. If you find a word of power you can't use it until you've spent a dragon soul on it.

Each shout is made up of 3 words, you have to learn each word from three different tombs or dungeons. You need a dragon sould to empower the word. So for each shout you need 3 words and 1 soul, however you can use the shout as soon as you get the first word, the next 2 just make it more powerful. For example Fus Roh Dah, the first word basicly just staggers enemys, using 2 words pushes them back a little bit and dazes them, when you use all three it throws them through the air and dazes them when they land and even kills them somtimes if they go far enough. Ive killed enemies with it on only a slight incline.

Just when I thought I was stunned so much by the game visuals that I couldn't be stunned more, there comes something new and totally knocks me out. Mage university in Winterhold is UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH orgasmic. Can't wait to play a Mage character (I do not really want to respec my thief girl into magery).

Anyone else disappointed in the dragon AI? God, even on Master they refuse to attack you over anything. Bandits, Trolls, Wolfs, even FOXES. Sometimes they even fly away when you're fighting them to go kill a Huskar or something...
They also suffer from 'nintendo hard' difficulty. Stupid one-shot mechanics(easy to dodge, though) and a gajillion health.
I still like the game a lot though.

YAHOO! HE SHOOTS AND HE SCORES, I HAVE SKYRIM
/victory-dance.
Damn :S my PC really stinks, I can play the game, but only with everything on min, and even then it has a horrible framerate, and you know what? I DONT GIVE A CRAP =D I FRIKKING LOVE THIS GAME.

well, good news, bad news.
Good News: Updating the drivers of my video-card improved the framerate, and even allowed me to play on medium settings without having a horrible choppy FPS.
Bad News: Skyrim uses the HORRID lock-pick minigame of Fallout 3 and New Vegas :S I hate that system, it doesn't even has the auto-complete option T_T
Why games that require lockpicking dont use the system of Splinter Cell? fun, and not a pain in the ass.
jeez.

I know, right? This would be one of my greatest gripes with the game, the dragons attention span is nonexistent and they just go around and assault random targets. I really need to get my hands on a shout (or something) that will be able to tear them down from the air.
They also got pretty OP now that I am level 30. Killing me in two breaths and stuff. So sometimes I am glad that I do not get their attention. (I have a feeling Dragons
are
level scaled.)

OK this is absurd :S what does one has to do to get rid of arrows that are shot at you? Some archer shot me, and now 3 ingame-days later I still have a frikking arrow on my left cheek.
what does it take for those things to go away? I look ridiculous with an arrow on my face.

Things I don't like:
The unskippable intro
No respec system
I must switch my weapon from my left hand to my right hand to poison it, then put it back in my left hand where it belongs. It isn't that I am left handed, but my left mouse button SHOULD go to my primary weapon.

not fair.

No they are, if anything they look cooler in this game. The orginisation just seems to have gone a bit downhill since Oblivion, you will see when you get to their quests.
Speaking of downhill anybody find it a little depressing? You save Morrowind then a few years later Red Mountain explodes and destroys the entire province. You save Cyrodil from oblivion and a few years later the Elves invade and tear the empire apart. I imagine in the next expansion we will hear about how a million cliff racers invade Skyrim and eat every man woman and child in sight.

on this you can give me a little spoiler pls, a hint or something.
=/ by taking a look at some achievements I kinda spoiled myself the ending of the dark brotherhood quest-line, or at the very least the objective of the final mission.
BIG SPOILER ALERT, THIS IS A HUGE SPOILER, READ AT YOUR OWN RISK
The final mission for the Dark Brotherhood consists of ASSASSINATING THE NEW EMPEROR
now your turn, gimme a little clue as to why have they gone downhill.
