Yes, I'm the result of restartitises uncured. Skooma only helped a little,but not anymore :c

Shh, not so loud, they can hear you...ELVES! AARGH!

Firstly you need to adopt the "no character creation after 9pm" Rule. Character creation must take place in the morning preferably or worst ways in the afternoon/early evening otherwise the condition is known to get worse from recent case studies. Hope this helps you.

Therapy. We all need therapy. I started my beloved Bosmer character Boris this week and I already want to start playing as a battleaxe-wielding Dunmer who worships the new temple and carries out harsh justice to any non-believers and worshippers of the old tribunal.

Theraaaaapy. I NEVER and I mean NEVER get to level 30....

Maven any day of the week. That arrogance...that...(can't write it, 'cause it will be censored, but it starts with a C. )

Sorry for the off topic, OP.

Never go until level 30? I don't have it that bad. My character builds usually make it until around level 50 or 52.

Wrong thread I think, another early sign of restartitis I think!

^ He's referring to my signature.

He has not picked Nazeem. His heart is pure. Congratulations!

I might. But that means I need another great character. Something that won't happen anytime soon, I'm afraid :c

Looking into more gameplay options. Might become a pure-healer, legendary, and solely rely on a heavy-armored follower tank. That might do the trick, actually.

Blessing is disguise. I haven't finished the main quest until it was about September this year or so and I own this game since 11-11-11 [ technically earlier since I live in the Netherlands. ] Allowed me to be amazed and I still find new and exciting things, new angles, new lore and angle of RP.

I did. I created her saturday morning and spent last night thinking of her back story and what I will do with her. So far I have a minimal combat build. Centered around using calm/fear/fury to get out of fights. A high degree of stealth and pickpocketing. The rest... all in my head still.

damn it I need to concentrate on work now and I got no sleep.

I've had the disease since the release day of Oblivion. For many years my game progress has gone along at a snails pace thanks to the condition, that constant urge to restart ever present in the back of my mind.

I've found no cure thus far, I have learnt to live with the disease, debilitating as it is. At most I've spent 40 hours on one character, yet to complete any guilds apart from the companions and I've barely scratched the MQ as well as the Civil War. I worry I shall never finish them.

Iv'e created a character in Oblivion after 4 attempts....don't jinx me now!

Don't make boring characters... than again I tried making a librarian the other day so maybe I should shut my mouth...

Besides those diagnosed with ADHD, about whom I lack the required medical education to talk about, 2 more kinds of people suffer from restartitis:

• The indecisive: They can't decide which character will be able to produce the one, perfect playthrough -they usually end up running in circles.
• The impatient: They want to see every aspect of the game, not today, but yesterday and they seem to believe that different characters who never get past level 20 will grant them this experience. The fact that the leveling pace starts slowing down once past that level, also plays a major role. They too, usually end up running in circles.

Now, because running is circles isn't exactly the most fun thing to do (unless you're a runner, competing with other runners for the golden medallion) many of them will take a break. If/when they come back, after 2, 3 or 6+ months, they will obviously feel no connection to either the character, or the game -I know I wouldn't, even though I hardly forget anything I've done in my entire life. Their only option is to start over -but they really need to stop themselves from running in circles.
