How do you know what time it is.

Its really not any where that I can see. Is it just day and night and thats it.

You can watch the position of the sun.

I have aquest that says I return for the ceremony on the next evening. I don't even know what time it is now let alone coming back on the next day in the evening.

Simply meditate and it turns from day to night.

There isn't a clock because there is no need for one.

[Viper]

is that the M key..thank you

[kro32]

Yes.

Tapping M brings up your map and if you hold it down you will meditate and change from day to night or night to day.

And in Origins there was DLC achievement to do some task at time between 10 and 12 AM. Thankfully game also featured sundial at that location.

Your character will also make a statement when dusk or dawn happens. Why? Couldn't say unless it's tied to the stealth mechanics.

Some quests change the time of day automatically, like it or not....

Just as a nice added touch, most likely.

But stealth is more effective at night. Guards can't see as well, they seem slower to react, there are (sometimes) fewer of them, less wandering around.. It's a subtle effect mostly.

After checking some things, there is a stealth skill which is more effective at night, So I'm guessing the player character chatter about dusk/dawn is to let the player know new rules are in effect if they aren't using meditate and let time move naturally.
