I guess you forgot to kill a Shaman, haha.

Just killed a bounty collector near Riften. While looting the body the corpsr got back up and started walking backwards in the same spot.

Most Dwemer ruins turned into massive black holes or something. No walls, no floors, no ceiling, just the blue sky and fluffy clouds. Oh, and I can't move more than 7 thousand steps (or less?) in any direction without crashing the game. The latest patch is simply MAGNIFICENT! Either Khajiit ate too much moon sugar or did the people at Bethesda.

Not really a glitch, it's an NPC dialogue fail. I was watching my son play, and he has Lydia as a follower. He had trekked through and cleared out a lengthy vampire cave dungeon, and when he stepped back into Skyrim, Lydia said "Oh look, it's a cave entrance. I wonder what's in there." :roll:

I borrowed a horse from
Spoiler:
the Imperial Caravan you raid during the Stormcloak questline.
I dismounted it later, and as soon as I was off, it shot off through the air, flew around 200 yards, and then died from the landing.

I'm playing on the ps3, and after escaping helgen, Ralof or Hadvar will almost always turn right toward the bandit mine instead of left toward the guardian stones. after killing the bandit they'll just stand there, and only continue toward riverwood after I leave
The sad truth is, kids today will never know why pikachu is never inside a pokeball.

I was off trying to steal Frost, skulking in the shadows, when the guard started advancing. He was saying something about "this is far enough!" and "don't come closer!" I couldn't understand as I had my sneak around 100 already, though I was visible (by the chickens). Then suddenly ALL the guards started running at me, so I jumped up the rock wall... and they haven't noticed me, they just... slaughtered all the chickens!

anybody else notice when you jump going up a hill with a horse it hovers a little bit. I just witnessed my brothers horse fly for a little while up a mountain.

So... Last night, all spells didn't cost magicka. Which means I equipped a ward spell in one hand, and firebolt in the other, and took NO damage while being swarmed by necromancers. Truly awesome.

EDIT: Also, I was riding a borrowed horse up to a group of Forsworn, and right as the Briarheart was about to die he mounts my horse and rides off a cliff. Another time, I was fighting a dragon next to Meeko's Shack and I used Unrelenting Force on he dragon. It also hit my horse, who was courageously kicking the dragon in the wing, and blew him on to the roof of Meeko's Shack. I can't reach him to ride him off of it, no shouts or magic do anything, and he's just sitting there with his legs straddling the roof. Not really a glitch, but still weird.

So you can't, like, use FUS RO DAH to push him off? Maybe you could.. kill it and then resurrect it, seeing as you are on PC.

Okay, I finally found an angle that lets me move it with Unrelenting Force... Unfortunately, it cartwheeled 200 feet in the air, and then returned to earth and died on impact.

A horse has just fallen from the sky right into some snowberry bushes. It's dead.

Yesterday all sorts of strange things were happening.

Most of them were texture glitches, like a place not loading properly, no water in some rivers, black stripes inside buildings... Odd.

Sometimes I'd find a couple of framerate issues too.

Also, did this happen with anyone else? Sometimes when I break inside a house with the lockpick the door is kinda opened (but locked) and when I manage to unlock it the door closes... and I have to click again to go inside...

I was in Labyrinthian, and some of the Draugr had some weird X-ray thing going on.

And have you seen my head, per chance? Can't find it anywhere.

The thing with the Draugr isn't a bug I believe. They're supposed to be ghosts (I think).

Riften, quest for me to talk to Sapphire about Shadr's debt to her. She came out of the Bee and Barb, walking across the bridge where Shadr was sitting, and I talk to her. She says "I have nothing to talk to you about" or something. No dialogue options. Shadr is 5 feet away across the bridge, and I talk to him and he says "Did you talk to Sapphire for me?" with no dialogue options.

Stupid quest is broken!! Sapphire finally moved after about a month when a Thief went running from the guards and she attacked him. Then she returned to being a wallflower in the Bee and Barb, and STILL won't talk to me!

It is possible to resolve an issue where she will not speak to you while on a quest for Shadr. If you progress the quest with the setstage console command, then kill her and resurrect her again with the console, she should switch back to her normal behaviour.

I walked out of the DB santuary, and a dead wolf, deer, and naked women all kinds fell in a pile in front of me, then the deer rag-dolled around for a few seconds before disappearing entirely.

I'm pretty sure that was Sheogorath messing with my head or something...

I got into a brawl with the guy at the Riften Stables with Mjoll as my companion. In mid fight I accidentally punched a Riften guard so got arrested blah blah blah. Anyway when I got out, Mjoll still thought that I was in the brawl so while we were walking, she kept on shouting stuff like "Come on! You can get him" and "Beat him to the ground!!!" even though I wasn't fighting anyone...
