Yeah the animations look terrible in the vanilla state I feel like a loon fighting.

I just had a fun little bit of roleplaying in Oblivion.
My Redguard paladin was finishing up the Arena questline. He was already feeling somewhat uncomfortable after fighting the ex-Blade (generally when you join the Blades you join for life, yes?...unless you turn on the Blades. So either that was a very nasty man or there was no 'ex' and he was just under cover, but my poor Redguard doesn't know which...) and he just started feeling worse after fighting a suicidal Gray Prince—everyone keeps patting him on the back for the 'victory' that really was a mercy kill.
So imagine his horror when Lucien Lachance shows up in the King and Queen that night with an invitation to join the Dark Brotherhood.
Once Lucian left, Jalan spent the rest of the night with his back against the door, not sleeping, and went straight to the bridge in the morning to throw the evil knife into Lake Rumare...only to find that the thing was cursed such that he couldn't be rid of it (because Quest item). So he threw HIMSELF off the bridge instead.
He was disappointed to find he'd survived the jump, but spied a shrine to one of the Divines on shore. Taking this as another sign, he swam over, prayed forgiveness, and continued on his quest to save the world (and I got to add Julianos to my
'list of Wayshrines visited for the Knights of the Nine quest').

So... I bleeped up a bit.
Got vampirism on one of my toons for dawnguard main quest line.
Decided to get rid of it by becoming a werewolf again.
Now I got Beast Form along with the ups and downs of vampire(but no vampire lord form).
How in the bloody hell do I revert to normal?

Console commands?
No seriously can't you still just get the easy vampire cure?

Tried the 'legit ones'(as in found ingame,no console tampering), but the thing is the toon is now bloodstarved and everyone is after it.
Feeding or using a blood potion doesn't work.
I have no idea which console commands to use.

@Kip: Guessing here, but when you say you have Werewolf powers AND Vampire powers at the same time and can't feed...that sounds like it's from a bug; did you give Serana or another follower a Potion of Blood? They have those symptoms listed on the Skyrim Potions page (here: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Potions - scroll to the bottom. Sorry url format doesn't like that ':'), and I've run into that myself; she uses the Potion and it gives you glitchy vampire powers.

Serana in my game hauls around a crapload of pelts, ores and ingots. I've never given her any sort of potions.
I'll try the console thing after I get back from work.

Grrr, someone posted videos of the upcoming new dungeons in ESO; I can't decide if I should watch them now or wait and try them first-hand in-game.

I know it is a bit off-topic, but would you mind telling me your opinion of ESO? I am on the fence about it.

It's good enough that I played for a couple months after it came out initially, and I came back to it after it went B2P and have been playing since. It's not good enough for me to have renewed my sub in that time.
It does some things excellently: character creation is awesome, and made me very disappointed in Skyrim's. Several zones have very good writing (I love the plot in Craglorn, several main characters in AD are good enough they got me to join the faction, and there are a number of other good quests). There is lots of Tamriel to explore. We get to see a number of races we've only heard of before (Maormer!). It adds a lot to the lore that I've enjoyed.
There are some things it's been gradually improving on: Provisioning used to be extremely ingredient heavy if you wanted to cook for all levels, and they revamped it. Enchanting was hard to level and they added daily Writs where you got inspiration. You didn't used to be able to react with a lot of the scenery; then they added Legerdemain and now you can steal some of the things that were just decoration before.
But it also does some things poorly: PvP is frequently a lag-fest, there was about a year before it went to console where we got very little in the way of new content, and the console versions don't have text chat. There's been a gradual trend of making the game more grindy.
So on the whole I'd say it depends on your play style, and what you play the game for. If you've been on the fence a long time, it IS B2P now so I'd say wait for a Steam sale and see if you can get it for cheap.

After screwing the game up little under a year ago I've decided to do a fresh run on skyrim, I want all the mods I need in place before starting though. Also I'm likely going to run with an assassin/ninja type character, since I hate Skyrim's combat with a passion.
Is there any demanding graphical mods Ad that you'd recommend?
Might go back to playing with my skooma adict Predator character.

I have to say, that was an amusingly enjoyable read. Almost makes me want to fire up Skyrim again and try it myself.

*!summon Adrius*
Ad, I'm finally getting a comp that can run Skyrim at highest+ settings! I've done all the three questlines that are actually interesting, so naturally I'm looking for mods. LOTS OF NODS. Please help me.
I'm looking for:
Aesthetic mods
Anything that makes Skyrim and its inhabitants look better. I'd like nicer people too, but I'm not interested in nudity or overly sexualized mods.
Perk system overhauls
Vanilla perks are both boring and overpowered, and offer zero inter-skill synergies. The only kinda interesting build I found is the solo no-crafting no-enchanting Illusionist stealth archer, and I played too much of it to still be interesting on my first real, no minimalist grey blocky, choppy textures/framerates playthrough. I favor exclusively dagger thieves, kinda if the assassin from Assassin's creed only had access to the stiletto. I want it worth investing in the Thief skills for once, apart from the sneak multiplier bonuses. I'm on the fence about making it harder to sneak around, but if it makes for a more satisfying endgame, I'm all for it. Currently, PerMa looks very enticing, but on its own it doesn't do everything I want.
Crafting system overhauls
Enchanting and Smithing are both horribly linear, boring and overpowered. I'd like that to change
Climate overhaul mods
I'm sick of foggy snowy snow. Let there be a nice relaxing summer/spring in Skyrim! I assume there are mods for that.
Hunting overhauls
Hunting in vanilla is tedious, low-yield, repetitive and difficult, because there are so few animals worth hunting. I want to be able to go on impromptu hunting trips, and actually turn a tidy profit doing it.
Poison/Alchemy overhauls
No matter how hard I tried, I could never make a viable poisoner character. For poisons to actually poison people I had to abuse the Enchanting system, if not quite resorting to the restoration loop. In addition, mass-producing potions and poisons that were actually useful required harvesting everything everywhere, and that was still not enough! I want standalone Alchemy that does not require Enchanting to stay even remotely relevant and I want ingredients to be readily available without stripping all of Skyrim bare!
Pretty please oh mighty Adrius, help me be a worthy part of the PC-gaming master race!
EDIT: So I re-dl'd Skyrim, spent hours dling, configuring, and making my planned mods play nice with each other, mostly succeeded, then realized actually playing Skyrim is effing boring. Grr.
