Skyrim's been out a while.

It definitely is a stylistic decision, but I thought the daedric armor was so much more cool looking. On top of that, people tend to act more fearful around you in the daedric armor. It does get to be a bit overkill, especially after you put two enchantments on each piece, but it's so much work that you feel as if you are well-deserved to be the badass you become.

(Edit: Yeah, smithing skill, not crafting. Sorry, it's been nearly a year since I've played.)

I consider smithing and enchanting as one and the same 'crafting' since if you're going to do it: you might as well go all the way

It's a fun way to play, though... and finding these hookers http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Daedra_Heart is some small amount of work.

Really wish the Dremora had played a larger role in the game.

The http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Atronach_Forge itself is pretty awesome.

Note: This allows a second option to reaching the ability to make daedric armor for someone who doesn't smith at all. Kinda cool. You can even enchant it (with random enchant) off of this, and forego enchanting entirely
