I have just left the difficulty on diffult which is Adept. I like playing pure classes, such as my first class being a pure mage. My mage focuses on mainly destruction, with restoration for increased Magicka Regeneration and Alteration for Mage Armor. I wear only robes too. I find on Adept with my character is not hard when I'm at a distance shooting spells but when I get hit with a melee weapon it takes 1-3 hits to kill me. I also have hardly have spent my perks. I think I might start playing on Master but I just can't get hit or I'm dead in one hit. Some people play mixed classes like Archery and Magic, which I don't like because it makes you too powerful. I like battlemages because I love to melee things and also use magic but I don't like knowing I'm not as strong as possible in my class. I like to role-play and when I mix melee with magic or Archery with magic I feel as if I'm playing multiple classes at one time which makes me more powerful. I have always liked pure classes. Then again if possible I'd make a character who masters everything, that way I can change how I play in the same game without making a new save. I don't mind daggers and bow for assassins as if it fits my role-play I like it. I just find it hard to make a battlemage personally as I don't think I'm getting the most of my character as he will either be strong in melee or magic or be moderate at both. I like being a master of things, probably my OCD and perfectionism. I just feel uncompleted when I role hybrid classes, though I find them fun for versatility but at the same time I feel unachieved or like I haven't got that special feeling. Once I have tried melee and a stealth character I will re-make my characters on Master and experience the difficulty playing as Pure warrior and Pure mage. For stealth I was either going Pure archer, or maybe a more assassin type with Bows and daggers. Or maybe make my assassin dagger only, and maybe duel wield daggers and keeps my marksman as a seperate class. So many choices make it hard for my indecisiveness.
I just realised having that indecisiveness, OCD and perfectionism in one is not good especially for a game like Skyrim which has endless possibilties and infinite quests.
