Dragons! The most difficult thing in the game...

Post » Sun Dec 18, 2011 8:53 am

I know many dragons will swoop down out of nowhere and attack you, and personally, that's one of my most loved things about random encounters in this game. But I'll be god damned if about 80% of the others don't purposely try to avoid you, whenever possible. For a race of creatures bent on helping to destroy the world, they sure are lazy as hell when it comes to getting to actually destroying anything. The most I get, the majority of the time is a dragon swooping around, nearby. I see it flying and think "oh boy, here comes a dragon fight!" and instead, I get a dragon who seems to insist through his movements that, no, he's just a scout. Leave him alone.

I know this is probably (still) a bug, despite it supposedly being fixed by one of the "patches," but it's just annoying as hell. If this doesn't get fix by a patch or a mod, once the CK is out, I may have to resort to my annoyance removal/satisfying visual mod I made for Morrowind and the cliffracers. Which is basically, setting all of their health to 0 in the editor. And based on how things' AI and cells seem to work, (at least how it was in Morrowind) the game doesn't process the stats until you can actually get in visual range of spawned ai. Meaning, you'd get to actually watch the stupid [censored]s fall right out of the sky.

Anyway... I guess that's it for my rant. Have a wonderful day.
