During my very first playthrough of Skyrim (which I am still doing actually, I got into the game late), I didn't understand how overencumbrance worked. I didn't even know there was such a thing at first. So I remember when I got out of Bleak Falls Barrow trying to fast travel and not being able to. I was like wtf? Not understanding or realizing I was overweight, I had to walk all the way back to Riverwood and Dragonsreach. Thank the Lawd it wasn't a far walk. However it wasn't until about, oh, level 15+ (and literally walking everywhere up to then on foot - finding the Blades' temple was fun. And traveling to all the areas that Alduin resurrects dragons at, which at the time I didn't know was a scripted event and scared the crap outta me. I died so much during that time!), that I realized the inability to fast travel may have been from one of Skyrim's infamous glitches. And so I Googled it. Thank the Lawd Above I did because I learned all about the encumbrance system and can fast travel to my hearts content now. It was also then that I realized how little I actually knew about the mechanics of Skyrim and so I began educating myself about them. Totally worth it and glad I did. You gotta understand I was coming from playing older consoles, like the PS2, Nintendo DS Lite and Gameboy to suddenly playing on the PS3 with a game like Skyrim which was quite unlike any other game I've played at the time. So. Anyway.
I also used to collect alchemy ingredients and try to combine them by guessing basically, until I found websites with the different formulas. Ah and I used to steal every single thing off the people or creatures I killed, no matter how worthless, thinking it would make me a bunch of money all together. That was when I learned that you need a fence to sell stolen items (or the perk). Call me stupid but hey, atleast I learned better!
