UESP Forums

In an interview with PC Gamer, Howard was asked if Skyrim's new Radiant Story technology -- which makes NPCs interact with your character and their environments in a more realistic manner -- produced any surprises. Howard's response: neighborhood watch-like chickens.


I wonder if chicken killing will be seen as a crime, tho thinking a bit, maybe they need to review the ingame
rats, roaches & bugs as well for this snitching ability.

If a dog can snitch on an intruder in said dog's master's home,then why shouldn't a well trained chicken be able to do likewise?

I think it was posted somewhere that killing a chicken is a 5 gold fine crime.

A thread about chickens? Umm, ok.

As far as I know, killing chickens that are owned by someone is a crime. Oh, and the bug which caused chickens to report your crimes has already been discussed here.

Wasn't there already a thread on this?

Vendatta:
Yes there was but you cannot ever have enough chicken threads on a forum mate

Besides, once you make it clear people cannot talk about stuff that is already on the forum you put people off posting because they cannot be bothered to search for it. Nor can those telling people another thread exists i noticed. A point I have commented on previously.

But the real issue is that forum searches but a big load on databases and servers so the more people we force to search for threads, the slower the website runs for all of us.

Eventually timing out and giving errors.
I doubt that is what UESP people want to see happening so its better to let people make unimportant repeat threads and just warn them about stuff from important threads where there is a real need to keep the data in one place.

Mod pls. Delete this redundant thread / we need less clutter.....
