Everytime I think there′s something else selected and it′s whirlwind sprint instead. I should film myself to laugh later, I get really scared first, then really pissed.
It wasn't particularly funny at the time. In one of my first games I got Erik the Slayer as a companion and we traveled to Winterhold. Now, I'm an old Morrowind player. I've spent at least 8000 hours in that game. So when I saw the Sea of Ghosts in Skyrim I had to stop and reminisce about all the adventures my Morrowind characters got into over the years in and around the Sea of Ghosts.
While I was doing that Erik the Slay ran up behind my character and bumped her right over the cliff. My character plummeted, screaming, to a tragic death on the rocks below. *sigh*
It was right there in the name. Although Eric The Idiot would be more fitting.
Id say what immediately comes to mind would be the first time I encountered the bugged dragons. The spinning, texture breaking, backwards flying dragons. Then discovered that a lowly fire bolt spell could send their corpses flying. I'm not sure why I found that so funny.
There are a lot of funny moments, but I don't think it's possible to beat a huge mammoth falling out of the sky. Just makes me think of certain Douglas Adams material.....
I think the idle animations and dialogue do it for me. A bad guy kills me and then says something like "there's nothing here now" while standing on my dead corpse. Or anyone who attacks me after I've killed a dragon and swallowed its soul. Also the number of people who will claim that death is highly overrated but will still charge a dragon. Lots of courage in Skyrim
Sometimes a guard will kill me and then say "State your business"
Last week i was in the wilderness and saw a bear chasing a deer. I summoned my Draemora Lord (just in time to save the deer) and switched to Chain Lighting. First time i hit the bear, the deer went flying. Talking about collateral damage...
I was in Forgotten Cave tracking down the crossbow designs for Sorine. I go around a corner and see a bandit sitting at a table and another farther away leaning up against the wall. I pull out my bow, take aim at the one closest to me and fire. He dies and his buddy is aware of it. I ready another shot and start zooming in as I line him up. Just as I let go of my next arrow, a third bandit that I never saw comes running into my sight to check on the one I just killed, and I end up getting a perfect head shot on him.
