I had a glitch/bug happen to me in Daggerfall eariler today, and I it got me thinking. So, I recorded it, added 25.29 seconds of music, and made https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFp-DeA_11s:

This didn't happen to me personally, but to my Lovely And Talented Significant Other (LATSO) while I was looking on. Back when Oblivion was first out she and her horse were swimming from Fort Virtue across the bay to the IC Waterfront when all of a sudden her character began to bend forward at the waist. Her head went down through the neck of the horse and came up through the rear of the horse. She kept revolving around and around and around like this, as they swam across the water. We didn't get any video of it. She may have taken a few screenshots but I have no idea where they would be now.



Actually, now that think of it, that's probably more disturbing than it is funny.....

All right. So I was walking along the Old Bridge in Oblivion when a guard dismounted his horse and, no joke, hopped on one foot all the way across. This was on the 360 and freaked me out.

I was playing Oblivion a year or so ago and I'm not sure what happened but when I selected an NPC to talk to in Layawiin (can't remember who) someone else was walking past at the moment I began the conversation and the whole discussion was done with two khajiit heads morphed together. I don't know how the [censored] this even happened but one of them had phased into the other. It was wild.


Also, one time in Skyrim I was just strolling along down that road off of Lake Ilinalta when a horse comes flying down the path. Backwards Very quickly. As I watched it speed into the distance I heard shouting from the direction it came from and was just in time to witness a battle between a hunter and some wolves. Well... battle might be too strong a word. The hunter was stuck in the ground up to his shoulders. The wolves made short work of him.

because of an unknown mod some of the lower class pants in Oblivion is transformed to skirts, would be disappointed it it went away.



Once found an hologram horse in Skyrim. Saw an horse on road, nobody nearby so I thought of stealing it, I could not, found it was like an hologram, no collision and unaffected by area effect magic.



Known bugs:


Was gathering the parts for the orry in Oblivion from the bandit camps. Killed one bandit with an sneak attack. The other bandit looks around after the shooter, see only an deer so it has to be the shooter and start chasing it. I understand that he has the orry part and i have to catch him, he might get killed somewhere or never return so it was an long chase before he run close to an oblivion portal was attacked and stopped so I could kill him.

Best one I've seen was in Oblivion, where a guard on patrol along the main road near Kvatch was attacked by goblins, dismounted to fight, and finally managed to dispatch the last of the goblins after they killed his horse. He then got back on his prostrate horse (sideways) and continued trying to complete his rounds (slowly) for the remainder of the game. Every time I passed (every couple of days, since he or his horse never vanished and respawned), he was still there in the same spot, lying on his side "atop" his clearly deceased mount. I posted a screenshot years ago, but don't know if I still have a copy of it.


Another incident of note in OB occurred after my low-level character stabbed a goblin for a measly couple of points of damage. It sailed across the room (which was already hard enough to believe), struck the wall, and then fell in a neatly folded bundle on top of a stool. It always seemed ridiculous how corpses could "double over" like that.

It's a well known bug now, but when Skyrim first came out when I first left Whiterun heading west I happened upon a bandit fighting a giant. Watching that bandit fly up into the stratosphere was probably the most I've ever laughed at a video game.

Well most amusing I've seen were in both Oblivion and Morrowind.



Morrowind- I don't remember the context at all... it was many years ago, I saw a post here someone describing a bizarre glitch where some character was just like a floating body with eyes attached to the chest or something- to be honest I don't know if I am describing it right it's been so long... It was disturbing, but also made me laugh cause the chances of a glitch doing something like that seemed so remote. Wish I could remember exactly what bug it was.



Oblivion- the things dead bodies in Oblivion did... Especially the neck stretching out to be like a giraffe or something. Also idk where I saw it, but I remember something about a bed that seemed to be rapidly moving due to the havoc glitch with a body stuck to it.



Skyrim- The mannequins. DEFINITELY the mannequins.
