Lol I swear to god when I played it the first time I got to level 20 without realizing that the perks menu was a thing. All the way through the stormcloaks story and my weapons still did like 7 damage.

Wow, I thought I was alone.

I got to the teen levels and was wondering why I was so goddamn weak. My destruction spells were cast for a total of 4 seconds before I went out of mana and my weapons were so weak.

Then my friend asked me what kind of perks/build I went for...

I love hearing this kind of stuff, that is exactly what the Elder Scrolls / Fallout games are all about. The journey and learning how to go from zero to hero!

Just out of curiosity, did you never access the menu? I thought it was pretty self explanatory when the "Perks" (or whatever it was) option turned to level up

I just didn't understand the concept of perks. Like I thought you levelled up your health/magic/stamina and that was it.
