Game became unplayable tonight.

The longer I played tonight, the more issues I had, like the following:

- Long login, 30 seconds or more before I got the character select screen after logging-in.
- Sound and music would cut out, more and more even when just standing still. Some sounds would happen 5-10 seconds after the event.
- The "E" key would be grayed out when trying to talk to NPC's, banker, horse trainer, vendors, etc.
- Tried to do a guild mission for the dark brotherhood and the target would just disappear every time I got close to them, never seen that before.
- Could not even see some NPC's I was being blocked by or bumped into, not even black un-rendered figures.
- I would take 30 seconds or more for the Banker to appear, then 15-20 seconds before I could got the banking menu.

- latency was about 110 - 277, FPS was 29- 42, I doubled checked my 60 MB internet connecting against 2 different testmyInternet web sites, no issues.

What's going on, the update, overloaded servers or what?

    I''ve tried the following;

    1. Removed all mods
    2. Cleaned out the SaveVariables folder.
    3. Ran the repair option from the game launcher.
    4. Down graded all of the graphic options, turned off shadows, v-sync, etc, set everything to min.

    Nothing made any difference, sound still cuts out, maps keep reloading about 30% of the time when moving, NPCs/vendors either don't render, take upto 30 secs or disappear when trying to use thief/dark brotherhood skills on them. I've been playing the game a lot sense March with some lag here and there mostly when in crowds but, nothing like this, after the Summerset update.

    I hope tonight's maintenance fixes things. I'm just glad I didn't preorder the Summerset DLC. The game is just unplayable for me at this point.
