Best part of the game, exploration. If you have yet to travel the seas i suggest bringing arrows and keeping the wind at your back. Never know what's lurking in the fog.

Agreed. I love the exploration in this game like no other. I was going through a Black Forest last night while it was raining and the trees moving in the wind along with the moonlight peaking through the branches and other fallen trees bent over onto other trees was just so amazing. No other game I've played gives me this feeling.
