I mean, they made a race with the ability to breathe underwater...
... And they don't even let them use magic or daggers to surprise attack people?

I can't even see underwater. Seriously, what is the point of that.. The few times I had to (blindly) get something from a chest under wter, it was a struggle to find my way to the surface again. Thank god for being an Argonian....

On a whim, loaded this up after a few hours getting mods.  I find Meeko the dog cause wtf is a dog doing on the road then running into the forest without attacking me.

Meeko joins me after I stalk him to his abode... And so we go on our merry way, till we pass by some runes with undead archers and their necromancers... Being a brave fool he is, while I wanted to keep going, he attacks the skeleton archers at the doorway, dispatching them alone before I realized what happened.  And so we were set to leave.... Then a Necro pops into view up top, raining ice shards on Meeko... killing him.  I slaughtered everyone there.  No survivors nor unliving were left standing.

EDIT: Now compelled to download and install the Bury the Dead mod and go about the effort of burying it.
EDIT2: Sadly... Doesnt work for Meeko.... Might work for most of the normal followers I suppose.... Update seems unlikely.

I go to Riften for the main questline, then the guy i need to talk to suddenly says:
STEAL RING FOR ME K?
The ring is in a spot where i can impossibly steal it with my sneak level. Not only that, but if i sneak, i can't see the ring.
How the fuck am i supposed to do this.

I don't have anything that could help me with this, i sold my invisibility potions BECAUSE I AM PLAYING A FUCKING TANK.

E:
And with cheats i stole all the rings from the stand and put them all into the guy's pockets. The quest isn't advancing nor complete. Yaay.

E2:
Nevermind, i figured it out, i didn't see the strongbox and decided to rob the display case instead.

E3:
Alright, this is very fucked up.
I come to a camp, and there are random forsworn fighting frost atronarchs.
I go down and kill some forsworn, as they are the first to attack me.
I look up. Blood dragon.

Why are you A FUCKING TANK doing the Thieves Guild?  You're not supposed to be able to do that quest.

Anyone ever count the number of stone steps to High Hrothgar?

My sister needed to for her fanfiction to find out where everything was at, and got the total 710.

If you are tank... why not just take it and beat up guards/do-gooders?  Of if you are do-gooder, take it and run away, hide ring and go back to do your time?  Something like that...

You could just say each in-game step is 10 steps, so its 7100 steps.

There aren't nearly that many steps in the game though.
Steps according to lore: 7000.
Steps in game according Elder Scrolls Wikia: 748.

Dunno why she would need the number of in-game steps for fanfic though.

She was having her character counting the steps, and being interrupted within that chapter.

I've never beat that little thing. Yet I've beat the game. So no it's not required to successfully steal the ring. You just need to try.
