I entered SI, had a look around, then returned to Cyrodil.
After a long while, & a few levelups, I returned to SI.
Doing this causes a bug:
The Gatekeeper just isn't aggresive anymore.
The game will not progress.
I even tried pickpocking him, but no key found.
To progress, I need to kill an Adventurer, as the Gatekeeper won't.
But when I do that, a Dark Seducer tries to arrest me, yes, in the Fringe!
I get a SI bounty that Cristophe Amande can't fix.
So I am considering Frenzy on an Adventurer, to advance the game.

Ooh. I had the bug where, if you killed the Gatekeeper far away, Haskill wouldn't appear even if you got the keys. :(

During the "Corruption and Conscience" quest in Cheydinhal, while I was waiting for the guard room to clear so I could enter Leland's quarters undetected, a guard who was eating stood up, turned around, and walked into the wall.

Well, that's not unusual, I saw that occur a couple of times during my waiting period, but this was unusual. He hit the wall so hard he fell over backwards onto the bench... dead.

Wow. That's a first.
Intolerance kills. RIP, FuzzyMage.

On the quest in Dementia where you can push that guy off of the ledge in order to satisfy his wish of you to kill him, I always enjoyed pushing him then jumping off myself, and when he hits the ground, it takes sometimes several seconds for him to make his dying sound after splattering on the earth. At least for me.

So while roaming in oblivion A dremora attacked me, but I utilized pathing errors and he got stuck in rocks! Also, i managed to TALK to him (enter dialougue) there weren't any options, since it hadn't been programmed, but I managed to use persuade and bribing to get my level with him to 70, I was laughing by that time, and exited dialogue, hoping that he might not attack me since we were bros.
But he did, and I got the gold that I bribed him with back (around 200)

I once killed a minotaur, and it streached all over Cyrodiil, it's on youtube (not mine), I'll see if I can find it.
..........
FOUND IT!!!
Well, sort of, this is what happened to it.
It's on Youtube somewhere, type in Oblivion Glitch (it's by JohanCC)
Random stretchy glitch! :mrgreen:

So I'm in the Isles, after destroying Jyggalag (basically setting his soul free upon the universe, comforting I know) and I walk down a path. Now, I've committed NO crimes whatsoever, and a dark seducer comes running up to me and tells me there's been a misunderstanding. I select to go with her, not knowing what I did, and I wake up in New Sheoth's graveyard next to a ghost and a skeleton. I kill the ghost, I search it, and guess what.

It has duskfang on its corpse.
First off, it was day. Second, I already had the fangblade (duskfang/dawnfang) third, I just woke up in a graveyard. WTF. No, seriously. I summon Haskill and he tells me I'm not looking in good shape.

I'm starting to become a bit afraid of the Isles. The treasures like the Talisman of Abetment are worth it, but some of this stuff is messed up. :shock: I mean really, have any of you heard about this? It was such an odd experience.

Btw, the skeleton only had bonemeal. After what I experienced, I'd expect it to have Umbra and maybe Boreal.

When Skyrim was announced I decided to give Oblivion a final play and wound up seeing something odd. Very early on I delivered the amulet and picked up Brother whats-his-name's horse. So at about level 2 or 3 with about 5 to 10 hours invested I gallop into Vilverin. I had no intention of keeping the horse alive so I ride up to the campfire, dismount, and back off. Like always the bandits ignore me and attack the horse. My aim with the ranged magic was somewhat lacking so my horse gave up and ran before I could kill either of the two bandits. Like always they gave chase to the horse. I was too slow to keep up so I left them to their fate and went about my affairs. Business as usual right?

Fast forward 40 to 50 hours of game play. I fast travel to a city and get a message that my horse was stabled outside. :shock: I had only mounted one horse the entire game...could it be? Nope. If the monk's horse was there it did not stay. My game lasted over 220+ hours, and for the rest of the time the stabled horse message would pop up about every 40 hours or so of real world time.

The weird thing is is that the Bandits of Vilverin never respawned. Not once in the whole game. I like to think they chased that poor horse around Cyrodil that whole time.

On a related note. If I ever upgrade my pc well enough to enjoy Skyrim, I know what I'll mod first. A random encounter where you come across two skeletons chasing a skeleton horse through the countryside.

I m still in the early stages of the game only lvl 21 but I have completed tne part where I go to see Jauffre at Weynon Priory and I get to use Piotre Maybelles paint horse (I think thts the right spelling of his name). Anyway been a bit since I was at Weynon and I was passing thru the otner day and there is that Piotr dude naked standing in front of tht chapel with his arms out like some one has crucified him onto air. It was frakin creepy I got the hell outta there. And heres the creepiest part I am finished the part where the Mythic Dawn had attacked Weynon and killed everyone so that dude was also dead! :shock:

Just cross urself and run like hell I say! :lol:

A few days ago I was visiting a prisoner in Bruma, when suddenly (I think after I left and reentered) there were two prison guards. They both followed me around and talked to me almost in sync. It was hilarious. I taped some of it, will try to post it later.

The game was glitching at the moment, I couldn't activate anything anymore, just walk around. I had to reload an earlier save.

I had just killed all the skeletons to clear Dunbarrow Cove. In making my way to Anvil to purchase the items for the Thieve's Den, you could only see the basic frame of the ship Clarabella. I went back to my last save thinking it would clear up but it didn't. I made my way around to the dock and tried to walk up to where the bridge was and saw the icon that I was in front of a door. Inside the ship looked normal and I was able to purchase all the items from Dahlia Rackham. When I visited Anvil later, the ship looked normal from the outside.

Using drain fatigue to drain all my fatigue. First you go ragdoll, but if you talk to NPC, you can see your head and eyes from inside. Then, when you exit the chat, you glitch through the NPC and start flying hundreds of meters. If there's an arched thing behind the NPC, you hit it and start flying to the direction of the curve. I hit a chapel cornerstone, and started flying hundreds of meters to the sky, and then landed and died.

I didnt start the main quest until i was level 48 , so what ?

anyways , i once had an incredibly wierd glitch on Oblivion ... now on an old playthrough , my character was a high level , and i had explored most of the map , and Collected many items in my chest in the waterfront house , now one day i decided to play around with the acrobatics skill , and went to enchant a few pieces of armour with Fortify Acrobatics , afterwards , i jumped around the arcane university for a while , before finally coming across a low wall , OUT of the city
well , i jumped over the wall of the city , and appeared outside in some freaky blue area , there seemed to be water , but i couldnt reach it , eventually i appeared back in the city , and afterwards i headed home to store my new acrobatics gear ..... and then ... the strangest glitch in the history of all my games happened ...
i entered my characters home , opened my chest , and discovered that none of the items in my chest had normal names , and upon reading the first name i saw , which was ''Minotaur Lord'' i made a shocking discovery ... My items had turned into CREATURES !!!! i left my house and took lots of ''items'' with me , including Marauders , Bandits , Minotaurs , wolves , and spriggans , and dropped them all over the waterfront , and they appeared out of thin air in front of me and started attacking people !!!!
this of course , meant i had lost all of my collected items ... everything was gone :( ... but at least i got this crazy glitch :P

The AI needs to catch up on what NPC's were supposed to be doing while you were away for months. Go into a Temple and watch people beat the crap out of the alters for all the days they missed getting their blessings.

I was in skingrad at the west wield inn with some other people.
Drank some beer, roleplayed and had fun, then one of the guys (whathisname)raised up and started attacking everybody and after he killed one of the orcs he ran upstairs and hide in one of the rooms, and after a while almost EVERYBODY in the city came running along with the guards upstairs to the guy.... Massacre

In Bruma, inside the Tap and Tack, a customer will steal some food and sit down and eat it and then a bunch of cops show up and say "Hi, how goes it?" to everyone. I was expecting to see some arrests made.
