I have a feeling I'm the only one who likes the fact that not all women in the game are young and pretty. I like that Uthgerd is weathered and has wrinkles. In general, I like that the game contains both young and old, good-looking and ugly npcs of both genders.
(I do know that I'm not the only one who thinks that elves in general and Dunmer in particular look awesome, but sometimes one might wonder about that, too.)

Necromage vampirism.

The way people talk about 'bug abuse' Id think Im the only one enjoying this playstyle and I have come to the conclusion its because people dont understand the fine points of it.
Yes, vampire necromages get a 25% boost to most things the game considers a spell cast on the PC.
But this comes at the cost of also increasing the weaknesses of vampirism by 25%. The need to get level 70 restoration early so necromage can affect most of the playstyle also means that enemies will have far outleveled you in combat stats.
It takes until level 40-50 before a vampire necromage stands a chance in a direct melee fight, before that misdirection, stealth and/ or summoning are practically required.
Putting a lot of points in health and stamina is also a bad idea. Until endgame a vampire necromage has better things to do with his enchantment slots than reducing casting cost and finding any equipment of resist fire is a real joy.

I havent played anything but vampire necromages in about nine months.
I have a reason to care if its day or night, I must manage my health/ stamina and magicka carefully in daylight, I get some nifty boosts offset by some nasty weaknesses. A subtle one is that vampires are considered a seperate race to the game. Gone are people recognising me as Altmer or that one quest where being an Altmer opens up a more stealthy path. A good boost is that a perked up vampire necromage has barely an enemy in the game his illusion spells will not affect, at any level. I have the choice to play a more evil character that preys on sleeping townsfolk or I can be more noble and vow to only feed off outlaws.

I can safely say that vampire necromage makes the game for me, I wouldnt want to play without it.

I like the Dwemer, their architecture, lore, weapons, armour and general badassness. I anxiously await their return, mainly to wipe the smugness off the faces of the Altmer and knock them down a few rungs on the 'mer' hierarchy.

I love the kill cams.

Well, Stormcloaks and their Nord superiority isn't much different TBH. And like Stormcloaks, not all Altmer are Thalmor. Most named Altmer in Skyrim are actually decent people and respected members of the society.
