I don't know about you guys, but I'm just not a fan of the Dark Brotherhood any longer. I mean, they went from an organization I absolutely had to be a part of in Oblivion, to one that had to be burned to the ground in Skyrim. They're like the bad guy version of the Blades...who are now...well...misled doofuses, unworthy of those we met at Cloud Ruler Temple. Pfft.
Pure incompetence. You can see them coming from a mile away. They are a mild distraction as opposed to a group to be feared and that commands respect. Sure, the Dova is the baddest of the bad, but c'mon these guys can't be the same organization we grew to love in ES4!

Oh, and while we're on the subject of sore points, why the hell can't I use these again...and why are they always just laying about while the fish are swimming around in droves?

They're just there to taunt me it seems, and always with fish in the water right next to them. Sure, I can dive right in and handfish, but my Dova just isn't much of a redneck!
