Dragon skeletons used to stay forever.

But a patch fixed that.

and thats actualy a good thing. i Riverside covered with them pre-patch. +the game remembered their position quite randomly so after fast-traveling back to riverside they offten gone appshit thx to physics engine, lagging like crazy. for example: one once spawned(the skeleton) under the roof of blacksmith workshop and been endlessly dancing - bouncing off solid objects and the blacksmith himself.

I hate how if you have a follower and trigger a rock fall trap, your follower will kill himself on them after they fall. They run up against the rocks until they get pushed forward out of the way and it somehow damages them.

Might happen to the player too, but I havent been dumb enough to try. I did the same thing in terraria; ran up against a rockfall trap. It killed me without even moving

Also, you can really tell how much Skyrim is the bastard child of Fallout 3 and Oblivion. It just feels like both games in one; Im not saying its bad, but...

damn! so it wasnt just me?
And i think my adventure with Skyrim has just ended... for now. At leats till some kick-ass mods wont come up.
Been playing mage like 8 times now, and i preety much mastered this playing style. Been a heavy 2h ork, dual wielding like 5 times. I tried fist-to-fist khajit but the fist fighting in Skyrim (the camera shakes and turns) gives me a headache.
Theres just too much fighting for me to go sneaky thief(sneak action are fun, but play a game THIS large with just sneaking? naah) and i just dislike the archer type. So theres nothing left for me =\
I miss being a plain adventure like in Morrowind's, where i could cast some spells from time to time, hunt with my swords or shoot down something with my arrows. Skyrim punishes non-specialists greatly narrowing the eventual play style which then limits the game life span.
I mean, i still havent seen all the locations, done even half of the quests. But theres just nothing tempting about them. Generic loot, generic enemies, another couple dozens droughs or bandits. when i lust for uniqueness. something that i can tell - was made by a human not randomly generated.
bah, ill stop here before this turns into bigger rant ive planed it to me.

Agreed. Perks in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas was cool but it didn't have a very big effect on the gameplay like Skyrim's perks. Now you must to specialize in something. Perk system just doesn't work for a TES game. I got used to do whatever I want and I can't decide what skill to specialize in because I get boring with every combat style quickly.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I think it's hilarious how Wilhelm just gives you the Sapphire Dragon Claw after the ghosty guy has spent his life searching for it. That was a great quest.

[Jopax]

Yeah, turns out his delusions weren't so crazy or delusional after all XD

Also, what's with the deliver that horn to the Talos shrine quest you get from the late kings widow. Shows the quest on the map is somewhere north of Whiterun near Fellglow keep but there is nothing but that damn cave there, unless it's in the cave, but I kind of doubt that since it's infested with Falmer :S

[Tellemurius]

No shrines sit outside and its probably behind the entrance or something.

[Shadowlord]

What? No, it's outside (IIRC). You probably went the wrong way or something.

[Jopax]

Meh, I'll look for it some other time I guess, but one thing that bugs me is why can't I just use that other shrine between Dawnstar and Winterhold :S

 So I started playing this in the new year for reals, and I figure I'm still in the very beginning of the game. Just finished everything before meeting the Greybeards and I kinda want to trek to the mage city by foot. but I can't because I'm sidetracked by everything around me and it's a very long walk and I only have like 50 Lbs of weight leeway.

[Theoboldi]

You could actually just use the carriage if you want to do that. There's one right outside of every town.

[Jervous]

Oh my god. Do dragons respawn or something? I went back to a place I already killed a dragon at, and there was a new weak dragon there waiting for me. When I killed it though, it didn't burn up and let me absorb it's soul?

[kcwong]

That Talos shrine she wants you to go to is a particularly secluded one. Other Talos shrine are right there in the open, the statue and all; that one is hiding under a short cliff, a tiny cave in the open world.

Perhaps she doesn't want people to easily find the late High King's horn in a Talos shrine.

[Sensei]

Dragons will respawn infinitely at dragon roosts and you will encounter an infinite number of dragons randomly. The fact that you couldn't absorb its soul is a bug; it's a coincidence that it came up just then.

So far my Blizzard Lizard Wizard is going well!
