very much yes, even if I don't feel like roleplaying and creating a compex backstory (which I probably will), it'd be worth it just to have a place to record various notes and comments (for example, in one of the things i read about skyrim I believe they said that once you enter a dungeon, it gets locked to your level and no high level mobs or loot appear, therefore, recording which dungeons you've visited is a worthwhile endeavor). In Morrowind (less so in Oblivion but still sometimes, particularly in respects to mods), I had pages of notes stacked up by my computer, notes written over notes in some cases, to the point where half of them were completely illegible, plus the pages kept getting lost, etc. Would be nice to have a convenient place to write all that stuff down.
