isn't there a perk for lock picks not to break? So you can just get that perk and not even have to level up lock picking the rest of the way...
lol - it's a rank 100 perk.

I literally cannot stop getting CTD. No error message, just closes. I bought a six pack so I could play and have a few beers...but I guess not tonight. Frustrated, I really love this game.

Also, I REALLY hate it when I think Lydia is following me but she got stuck somewhere, only a half hour later to find out she actually died somewhere without me ever knowing. I have to revert back to an earlier save and redo all my work. Fucking annoying. I gave her the best Dragonscale armor with enchantments, ring and necklace, and awesome weapons, and she still seems to die just about as fast as ever. Does any of that stuff actually affect her, or is it just for show? I know she can use the weapon powers properly (gave her a staff once and she went nuts with it, which is kind of a problem because they run out of charge really fast with her) but armor doesn't seem to really help her at all..
Also, regarding Blackreach:
What the fuck is up with the Crimson Nirnroot quest? Collect 30 Crimson Nirnroot from this goddamn massive cavern? Seriously? Talk about a time waster. Is the reward even good? Seems like the most lazy quest ever. Even the one in Riften with handing out pamphlets to 20 people wasn't as bad. Is there any sort of logic to where the Crimson Nirnroot plants are, or is it completely random?
You can resurrect NPCs using the console using the "ressurect" command, no need to revert saves. Either click on them with the console open or find their refID and use the PRID command to select them first.
Companions do not level with your character, their level is set the first time you meet them. So for most people Lydia will be a very low level. You can reset them to your current level via the console, see here -

Thank you very much for that info. I hate having to use the console but I think it's acceptable to fix poor game mechanics. In FO3 I remember I made Dogmeat invulnerable for the same reason. I wonder if such a command exists in Skyrim?
To be honest, if Lydia didn't carry shit for me I'd probably just go solo.
After starting a new character using clothes only, no hp levels, and I guess the magic resistance bug due to the patch, the thrill of easily dieing due to a mistake is making the combat much more fun for me. This was compared to running around with 80% damage reduction and 500+hp before.
Okay, I'm having a little issue with the thieve's guild quest
I finished everything- returned the Skeleton Key and alll that. Went back to the guild and had a 10 second conversation with Brinjolf (sp?) but nothing changed. Didn't get any info about improving the Ragged Flaggon and no one seems to know I'm guildmaster
Yes, the "do not update" setting for Skyrim does not work, It will still update your game.

Just wondering, since this has been bugging me. Is there anything we can do about this? I might just have to go back and read the end user agreement but, I would think there has to be some precedent about this. I don't know where there right to the software begins and my right of ownership begins but I would think steam would not have the right to edit content on my computer without my expressed approval. Any thoughts on this? I know its a vary nit picky thing but it bugs me that my game is being edited without my consent.
The only thing you can do is either run Steam in offline mode and/or physically disconnect the Internet if you've protected your Skyrim up to this point.
Past that? We can pound sand and eat it because Steam is god and we're all supposed to bow down and not worry about any of these things, right Fail?
I will try these things, well not the eating sand part. I don't think that would end well. I guess I am looking for steam to "fix" things they don't see as an issue. Unless I can prove I have been harmed I doubt this will go anywhere, even if it would be a violation of my end user agreement.
I say this with a chuckle but you could always fire up a support ticket and try and engage them in dialog.
Good luck with that.
There is a thread on the official Bethesda Skyrim forums on how to "roll back" to 1.1. It involves downloading a couple of .esm files from megaupload.com. Just a PSA, use at your own risk and it is not my problem if you fuck something up.
That is not a bad idea, and that would probably help my stability issues. But my problem is not with Skyrim being a little buggy, and with the updates not fixing much yet that sort of thing happens. My issue is that Steam cannot respect my settings to not auto update. The idea that they are in effect trying to insist that they have the right to edit files on my computer that they do not own, with out my consent and in direct violation of my expressed wishes.
Random thought. Think there will be any mods to allow a player to ride a dragon?
Seeing as there is a point in the main quest line where you do ride one, I was wondering if it wouldn't be fairly simple to incorporate it. I am willing to admit I don't know much about modding TES games, and that I regularly have understated the difficulty of coding projects in the past.
I just think it would be a fun mod.

Overall HP, Magicka, and Stam is better than regeneration.
