I love the base-building aspect of the game. Last week I'd finally had enough with the annoyance of invasions, and just used the console to reset the appropriate keys/flags that enable them. No more invasions, except for the "Eikthyr rallies the forest" one, but that's just a few boars and neks. They feed my trained wolves.

First time I've ever used the console (never use mods). Made a huge difference in my enjoyment of the game, gotta say.
