I didn't see a thread for this. Post your memorable moments, bugs, strange happening stories here.

 

I was just recently playing Skyrim on Masters difficulty and I was running up the thousand steps to high hrothgar.I was only level 9 so I was expecting to still have trouble with enemies. I ran into the ice troll 2\3s of the way up and he was regening faster than me or Lydia could do damage. So I made a run for it and it chased me all the way inside the building. I only expected a little help from the graybeards but they shout locked him! Freeze fire push and then they all jumped him, punching him to death! I have much more respect for them now!

Thats pretty funny!

 

I've subscribed to Skyrim's Game Fails Channel. I'll put some highlights here.

This one was called "The rare species of care bear in Skyrim"

'Easiest way to kill a mammoth' - Still happens to me often.

Some of the collision bugs have produced memorable moments. I watched a mammoth, of it own accord, leap about 150 feet in the air and come crashing to the ground, killing it.

 

I was using checko frostfall mod, and was charged with clearing out a group of bandits to join the legion. I was low level at the time and so I barely managed to take out the bandit thief. I had to sprint back into town, with low health, in order to narrowly avoid dying of hypothermia.

 

Recently I found Agnis in the mountains south of Falkreath. I hadn't ever heard of the character before nor experienced her in any of my other games. I stumbled upon her by pure accident, listened to her story, participated in the archery minigames and earned her bow. Really awesome game play moment. I also found the labyrinth very recently, and I really enjoyed that quite a bit. The little things in skyrim are really the best parts of the game. I love walking about in the wilderness and stumbling upon an interesting quest, especially when it breaks from the normal modes of game play and gives me an interesting and unique challenge or experience.

 

In the dwemmer ruins inside markarth keep, there is a dynamic light source next to a mysterious tree that happens to be there. With RLWC, the dynamic shadow is pretty much the only visible thing in the seen, and its really neat to watch the shadow flicker and sway with the light source. Around the corner spiders and falmer pace in the dark.

 

I also really enjoyed the end of the thieves guild quest, when you had to pursue the eye of the falmer into a dwemmer/falmer ruine, and you walk in the room completely aglow with glowing mushrooms.

 

I could go on for a long time. Skyrim is my favorite single player games because it is chalk full of moments just like this. The Bethesda team members are just master world builders.

ASIS + Skyrim Redone combo made for an epic battle earlier today.

 

Decided I wanted to test my level 15 character against a giant. Ran around way west of Whiterun, a little north west of the Sleeping Tree Sap giant camp. Found me a giant.

 

Plus 9.

 

Saved my game. Went into sneak mode. Drew out my bow. Notched an arrow. Let it fly. Even though my sneak was pretty good, and I was far away, they spotted me very quickly. Ended up fighting 10 giants and a mammoth around a rocky outcropping. Was tense as all hell.

 

Took the Mammoth out first so I didn't have separate AI to deal with. Managed to kill it before most of the giants got to where I was. Drew my sword and board as the first giant came into melee range. The battle against the 10 giants lasted for at least 20 minutes. I probably spent 20 health potions and around 10 stamina potions.

 

It was a good fight. And I won. :D

So in the spirit of Christmas, I bring to you a mod showcase of Christmas in Skyrim. I know that most won't be downloading these mods due to non-lore friendliness, but I think it's awesome to see some of the mods that pop up during the holidays. Definitely worth a watch.

I haven't been posting anywhere on the board in a while, just watching for now. Currently I'm taking a break from Skyrim until January when I get my new computer.
