I got a visit from somebody in the theives guild, telling me to get back to the Waterfront area at midnight!

I followed all three people around on that Paranoia mission, told the guy that no one was following him - so he tried to kill me!! Couple of blows & he was dead though! That was an irritating mission. :(

Haven't started the main quest yet - or even joined any guilds. Just closed the Oblivion gate at Kvatch & about to try and take the castle back.

I'm a bit stuck on a follow a shopkeeper around mini-mission...I followed him to the pub where he drank til the wee hours, then I saw him meet with someone where they stopped for hours and hours, so then I followed the new guy, I got bored of following him around for hours on end, so I tried to pickpocket him and got banged up :)

I followed the people around etc. and then said they weren't following him, so he attacked me. I then reloaded a save and said the last person was following him and he got me to kill them...

Do you have to kill one of the people to get the invite from the Asassin's Guild? I tried playing on a bit after doing both and didn't get approached by anyone. What way did you do it J?

Y'see the 2nd person, the one who goes to the castle, does indeed tell other people that the guy is acting strange! Doesn't follow him, but does tell the others he's acting a little strange these days.

When I told the paranoid guy this, after the mission I was given a last task of killing this bloke in his house.

When I did, I was told that "unseen forces were watching me" and from then on got an invitation to join the Dark Brotherhood.

Just shows that this game is very open in what we do and what we can't.

talking to absolutely everyone and getting them to like me (because it's so damn easy to do), and after charming five or so people, I'd get the "go to sleep and level up message".

Hey m8...really stuck on the persuade part, when i get to a certain point (say up to 50), the options seem to narrow down to one choice (the choice that knocks the score down lol), or the bribe button, but i have no gold...

am i missing somethin here? got any tips to get people to like me lo0ol?

Erm, there's not really anything more to it that clicking on the larger two portions when they're in the parts that the character likes, and clicking smaller two segments in the parts they don't. You just need to think about it before you actually start each time, and work out what's going to rotate to where after you've clicked. That way you can plan ahead and get the right segments in the right parts. Once you get the hang on the simple clockwise rotation of it, it's a piece of cake.

Yeah two out of the three people said he was acting a bit strange for me as well. I assume you got arrested after killing him?

Did you do anything for the Dark Brotherhood to approach you or just continue playing the game as normal?

I was worried the Unseen Forces bit meant that you'd been bad ala Black and White and possibly impacted your character development.
 
Just realised as to why I'm still Lv1 and have yet to advance because my blades skill is still not even at it's haflway point - I just went to the gameplay menu and saw that the difficulty level is all the way to the left! :( No wonder enemies were dying in one hit :(

Well you're right, you probably would get arrested, but if you serve time, or pay the fine, you're ok.

Can you alter the difficulty level mid game or do you have to start over ? (ie. create a new char)

You lot are nasty people! :p

I'm trying to follow a good path - an honourable bowman & fighter! No stealing or what not.
 
Sorry if this question comes across as a bit thick, but just how does the rotatey persuade thing work? I don't mean about the rotating segments, that's cool, but what does the number in the middle represent, and how do I get someone persuaded? Is there a target number I'm supposed to hit?

Do you just keep doing it over and over? I've received speechskill bonuses and what not, but the person I'm trying to get info out of still doesn't want to say much...

i did a similar thing, told him the 2nd guy was watching but no1 else, so instead of killing him i told the cops on the paranoid dude as the guy i followed just mentioned him, not to out of the ordinary.

But during the clearing of enemies with the cpt. during the Kvatch oblivion gate mission i accidently killed a solder helping me, got the same message - during the bit where you get the Count out (when you help the cpt) i went to bed to level up and go contacted by the dark brotherhood then, lol

i need help with that, i just hit loads of buttons - not a clue how to use it....or even why to use it?
 
I just checked out my character stats for the first time after 12 or so hours of play! I chose to play as an archer at the beginning, but have stupidly been fighting almost solely with swords - so my character level is still at 1.

Anyone got any good ideas?

PS. I don't like when you're running around with fellow soldiers how easy it is to kill one by mistake - they just jump in the way or the creature you're fighting!
