Skyrim's Inconsistencies.

Random priest just gets finished killing 3 frost trolls on his own, bare-handed.

Dragon flies by and he runs away shouting, "I'm not sticking around to fight a dragon!"

Not to spoil the mood - I dont know if the game considers having an outfit to imply public knowledge of rank - but this could be similar to some folks seeing my Sensei in karate-gi and 'advising' him to go to Shotokan. People see no difference between a regular black belt and a 8th-Dan Sensei.


The game notices when you run around naked, try it and listen to NPC speech :)

Accidentally steal spoon.
Whole guard force attacks me.



Sry this one is not a true constancy. In fact if u stole by mistake something in a store, as long u re not crouched, the merchant ll complain, walk to u and take back the item.

Here's a good one... you start playing the game and you're all "wow... amazing" and then you do the guild quests and you're all "wait... that's it? pffffff"

Thieves' Guild members say no one fears or respects them.

Every NPC in Riften talks about how they are scared of the Thieves' Guild.

Cicadas, katydids, and crickets DO NOT SING WHEN IT'S COLD OUTSIDE! :facepalm: Bethesda should know this, being in Maryland. :rolleyes: These are the insects that make lots of noise, sometimes in the day, sometimes at night.

For those of you who live in other parts of the world in which these insects do not reside, they are only active in warmer weather, and only sing in droves when it's summertime. By autumn, they are less of them, and by winter, they are all hibernating or dead!

Ooo, I've got one!

Worship of Talos is heresy, Septim dynasty has been replaced, but the official currency is still the "Septim" and still has Tiber Septim's image on it!

Become a Nightingale, gain the favor of Nocturnal, restore the Thieves guild to power all across Skyrim.

Ragged Flagon Bartender: "So your Brynjolfs new protege, eh? Don't look like much to me."
Ragged Flagon Bartender: "It's one thing to say you've got the skills to be a thief. It's another to actually use them."


This. So very much this. Another inconsistency: Brynjolf telling you he can't talk right now because he has important things to do, even after you've completed the Thieves Guild quest line.

Well, Brynjolf, so do I, that's why I ran past you without trying to start a conversation. Besides, I'm your guild master, you're not too busy to talk to me. ALSO, YOU'RE THE ONE WHO STARTED THIS CONVERSATION, RIGHT?

Dragons, bandits, assassins, wolves, bears, heck every type of enemy will not kill of my companion completely. When they are hurt and down the enemy leaves then to recover and comes charging at me. When I am down to my last bit of health do they leave me alone and let me go or recover? Hell no, i get finished off! :tongue:

Guard says that I must be Dragonborn because I shouted.
Beginning of game tells me Ulfric shouted.






he didnt say you were dragonborn from shouting he tells you your dragonborn because you absorbed the dragons soul
