Years ago, back when I came upon Morrowind, I never could take experience points based leveling in RPGs seriously ever again. Like take this series: The dude bought 600+ bottles of holy water, went to a ridiculous dungeon where undead keep spawning like tanks from the Stalingrad trackor factory, and then destroyed an uncountable amount of the monsters simply by throwing bottles. Throwing bottles. He used the experience of throwing bottles to gain swordmanship, archery, and magic skills. Throwing bottles experience, you know, highly relevant to mastering the sword, the bow, and the arcane arts.
