This is the 3rd such time in Skyrim's life where I hit a point of endless freezing. I keep coming back after a few months & another patch, but I don't know if I have another one in me (or if Bethesda has another patch in them..) -- there's nothing more frustrating in gaming, for me at least, than getting immersed in a game only to have it suddenly, and abruptly, become unplayable.
I am somewhat of a Bethesda games' vet, so I know the ins & outs. I never use autosaves, I rotate hard saves, I routinely clear both game & console caches and all the other hoops we players need to go through just to keep playing. It's a shame. It's a game you can truly get lost in, but I'm tired now. Maybe I'll try later ("I wish I knew how to quit you!").
I know now one cares--cool story, bro--but I felt like venting my frustrations & now I have. Cheerios!
