If you're getting lost in Skyrim, then you're doing it right. This is one of those games where you're pretty much supposed to get lost. If you really need to get your bearings, however, then just use the map. It's pretty accurate, unlike Fable III's. *shudders*

lol, you think its hard to navigate skyrim? the world map is aproximetly 4 miles larger and in length and hieght in oblivion and the navigation system was even harder then. skyrim practically holds your hand the entire game. oh well...

my advice, you will get used to it so dont bother thinking about it to much. there are no minimap mods out there or anything that improves the navigation so i doubt anyone can help you.

Well, the compass itself is better than some minimaps I've seen. Hell, it even has an icon that hovers over doors and NPC's when you need to go through them/interact with them. That's even more hand-holdy than Fallout's.

One also other thing you should get is a compass inhancer mod which gets rid of the icons and leaves the n/s/e/w so you can get even more lost which all of us who have played for over 500 hours have been wanting

well... now that i think about it, there are world map enhancing mod's that define the world map more clearly and show designated main roads in skyrim. i supose this could help as well.

(no link, sorry but i got mine from somewhere off the nexus.)

Allein Tiger is right, it is great to get 'lost'...but as he also says, use the MAP: press TAB...this is your quick inventory guideance system for navigating and acquiring destinations which you can use to fast-travel amongst during your missions..

Upon pressing TAB button, you can and must use the ''south'' compass point that is 'MAP', which will bring up a real-time status on your bearings/position within Skyrim, and also will display tactical data featuring locations, quest markers and also a pictoral composition of your general topography...seriously dude...you don't need to worry about getting lost as long as you get to know your HUD and menu interfaces...

Yes I have been on the plonk tonight, but I don't care... :D
