There has been quite a few WTF/OH MY GOD/:Facepalm: moments in my now close to 500 hours play time, having role played a few characters (Though with the idea being a demi god, they all seem to realize that they need to go sort out Skyrim seen as everything is going to the pl*ps.) The first being Grunt the Orc who was a one handed hit first, ask questions later, needless to say not many people liked him and it was almost impossible to get Thane in most holds. The second was actually Sheogoroth (yes i know! Don't troll) the element i added to him to show his mad side was that in every conversation i held the left anologue stick down and chose at random what he said. Sn'eek the Khajiit is my last, pesky little thief whom likes his bows, often finding amusement in pickpocketing guards weapons and punching them in the face.
Anyways, so first off, my face palm moment.
Out in The Reach, Sn'eek was exploring as he does, ever the opportunist thinking he can turn anything into a little coin he was picking ingredients left right and center, killing of a few Forsworn/Bandits for their weapons. Seeing a blue butterfly flutter past, he thinks, i am having those wings. Starts a chase, doesn't really take long to catch up to it, though when he does he notices that it is getting further away. Kitty eyes wide he looks down realizing that he is falling off some huge cliff, looking back up the butterfly simply laughing at him, shaking his fist till the comedy splat at the bottom.
WTF moment?
Where to begin, there has been so many with each of the characters really, one which i remember which stands out (having seen alot of animals chase others, bandits thrown by giants, dragons throwing bandits, etc...) I was ready to kill a certain women (won't spoil it just in case) whilst she was prepping to get onto the balcony, shadow sweeps across the ground, natural reaction is to look up thinking it's a dragon. It was an eagle though which is fine, i seen it a few times, but bow being already in hand i aimed, fired, bird came dropping out the sky .... "Ooooo Eagle Feathers."
OH MY GOD moment?
I've lost count the amount of times i have practically pl*ps myself because of something coming up close and biting my char's face of. Dragons always get the blood racing when playing through on Master, especially when it's more then one, that little rock sticking up is your best friend. The worst though was my second character, though this could be a facepalm moment as well. I had already gone adventuring before visiting the Greybeards, leaving the dragon quests because well, i can always come back to them. So i had already found most the words, they had all been unlocked though the more important ones to mention at this point is Whirlwind Sprint. As soon as i got the second i thought to myself, oooo the Greybeards have the 3rd word, so i visit and they teach but they foolishly asked me to practice. So he opens the gate, i run, holding down the button to show my awesome whirlwind sprint ability, turning to wink before i do just so they know i am better then them. Turn back, repeat all 3 words, sprint stops, fall of cliff, die ..... Reload ... Sheepishly bow my head as i repeat one word, even though i just reloaded i could see them giving me mocking looks, shaking there head ... (On that note, don't think you are better then them, i decided to teach them a lesson for mocking me, they taught me another lesson, had to reload ...)
. The game legitimately thought that path would be better, but then when it figures out there's a problem with it for one reason or another, the NPC stops, the game thinks about it, then runs back the way it came.
