I remember running straight past the imp for the exit nearly every time in privateer's hold.

On the same topic, does anyone else finds the dungeons in Daggerfall terrifying?

I never finished Daggerfall. One of the quests in the main quest chain, something like halfway through the main quest chain, bugged out and reset my objectives for that particular quest to the beginning, with no way to progress because it didn't reset the conversation status of the NPCs (so there were ones that I had to talk to for the quest who would only talk to me once and no longer would, and then would have wanted me to pick up an item which no longer existed, etc).

The dungeons in daggerfall were certainly interesting. Terrifying? No... there were times when I jumped. Now Oblivion and Skyrim have had me on the edge of my seat sometimes, especially with a mod to drop the lighting down to realistic levels (no sourceless ambient light, only light from light sources and torches) and one to add in random dungeon sounds so I no longer know skeletons are in the next room just because no other sound is playing. Now there are distant screams, skeleton sounds, rocks crumbling, etc depending on the dungeon as well as howling and whistling wind and other environmentals.

the dungeons in daggerfall would be scary if they weren't so ridiculous with what enemies were placed in them.  In one one my dungeons there was a bear, humans of all sorts, demon imps, bats, rats,  and undead all working together in a fuck you adventurer alliance.

Does anyone want to trade something for Terraria on steam? Will consider most non-indie bundle (except Bastion) game offers.

I'm made mods for Oblivion and Morrowind that make it so that torches and lights are not useless; realistic lighting. Been working on putting up paper lanterns in Balmora to make it so that you could see at night there (before hard drive died, anyway.) In vanilla, though, I don't remember being scared by any of the dungeons, except for a few of the sixth house bases in Morrowind (ash slaves appearing out of nowhere... eurgh.) I played a total conversion of Oblivion called Nehrim once, and even the freaking TUTORIAL dungeon made me sweat.

Obligatory mention of everburning candles, torches and lanterns conveniently left for the next graverobber to make use of a few hundred years later.
Speaking of which, Blackreach is the only dungeon in skyrim that i liked.

I love the dungeons of Skyrim. Sure, a lot of them feel the same, but a lot of them also have something unique and interesting. Blackreach might just be the best thing ever.

I found a bunch of armor and clothing mods for my character, Amy. Most of the good stuff is off the nexus. Some of it is still a bit revealing, but its a lot better than most stuff I found.

I probably will need to find a different place to upload screenshots, however. Nexus tends to ban accounts/delete screenshots that have armor/clothing that got imported from other games, or if the original creator didn't want his mod up for public and lets Nexus know that it was used in a screenshot.

(edit)
For now, here is a screenshot I took last night and put on DeviantArt just now. That will probably be what I use for a screenshot site. Kind of a funny place to upload screenshots of games, but I got the idea as someone else uses DeviantArt for the same purposes. Think it was somewhere on this thread the guy posted about using DeviantArt for his screenshots.

Yeah, I think I'll stick with imgur. That is what most people use on another forum, too. That is a lot easier to manage.

I re-uploaded all the screenshots I've taken so far to there. I left out the adventuring outfit though, that one didn't really fit my character and I didn't really like it.

That Amnesia: The Dark Descent reminded me of that dungeon.
