Slow Your Roll

OK, we're all playing Skyrim, having a fun time of it.  It's undoubtedly a game with a lot to do, with hundreds of quests, dungeons, and abilities.  But pump your breaks, that's not what you should be thinking about.  It's called  Skyrim, not QuestMan, or LotsaDungeons.  The greatest, most awesome thing about this game is its namesake, the world you inhabit, and all the exploring and adventure and huge productivity-swallowing world that awaits you outside of quests.  So here, I have a suggestion.  Not just a different way of playing the game, a different way of playing games altogether.  Just follow one simple rule.

Don't use fast travel to get anywhere.  Ever.
