This isn't really a "wow, that's so cool" moment, but I thought it was... a little 'woah'? I killed a farmer in Rorikstead named Lemkil, and I got a letter from his child. It's the usual "I know you killed him, don't worry, won't tell anyone, thanks" kind of letter, but it was from a child.

I mean, I guess that's not so dark, considering Aventus orders a hit on Grelod and all, but still, that's his daughter. Apparently he beats her and her sister.

Travelling towards Northwatch Keep from Whiterun, I happened upon Dragon Bridge as I crested a hilltop. As the evening was drawing in, I decided that I would go down into the village and stay at the local inn. I remember sitting on the porch of the inn and watching the sun sink below the surrounding mountains leaving the sky a bruised purple and mottled gold. It was truly wondrous.

The moment was made all the more vivid and tangible by the fact that I was enjoying a bottle of Hobgoblin at the time in 'real life' and a feeling of quite powerful bliss came over me.

Phenomenal moments like that make this game truly special and unique.

hmmmm a good wow moment, best one is probably when I was exploring the mountains of solitude near the border to the reach(markarth territory) and found an inn called old hrogan I think,]. I talked bought a broken steel sword handel for the heck of it and slept, next day I heard a scream and rushed in sword drawn to find an ancient Nordic warrior GHOST sitting drinking and then he thinking im his companion asked me to find his old sword. BEST. GAME . EVER!!!!

Bring me my broadsword, and clear understanding.
Still finding wow moments - 220 hours in, spent a lot of time wandering about not concerned about levelling up but still at 51, done loads of quests (main and guilds plus too many miscellaneous to be bothered counting), done Dawnguard and Hearthfire and I'm still finding new places and still finding things that can kill me. So impressed.

I don't know if it's a "wow" moment as such, but I was fighting some NPCs once and knocked one clear over a fence about 5 or so feet away with a killing blow. Lol I actually laughed so hard.

Also, sometimes when you get killed by a giant, and you get launched into orbit, that's also pretty sweet haha

I watched a dragon pick up a woman where her upper body was in its mouth. That was sort of a wow moment for me.

So I was at the dungeon with the two people, an Argonian mage and a Redguard woman. I believe it was Iron something burrow. Got to the end and the mage Beem-Ja turned on me and resurrected the Draugr boss. I did one hit with my Scimitar, it did an animation of stabbing Beem downwards from the neck. That killed him and that boss easily. Not the best, but still pretty funny. I was also some random level, I'm still level 1 and haven't leveled up.

I was on Soltheim and was leaving the port the first time and ran into some Ash Spawn attacking that guard. I had just started a new Mage playthrough so I was having trouble with my fire spells so I ran into the woods to regroup when I came upon more Ash Spawn and a couple of tree Spriggans and a bunch of Ash Hoppers. As I kept running for my life I came upon a group of Hunters on a rock in the middle of nowhere. The asked me if I would help them hunt the Netch or something like that. They then saw my pursuers and went into fight mode. We had 3 burnt Sprigganns 5-6 Ash Spawn and another 3 or 4 Ash Hoppers and a Bull Netch from the other side. We had a level 6 Mage a flame Atronarch and 4 hunters and do not forget Lydia. The Hunters and my little 3 person group all stood there firing ineffective Fireballs and arrows into the mass of enemies when I realized that since they were from ash my fireballs were useless. I switched to my ice magic and we managed to kill most of them until the Bull Netch got onto the rock stunned Lydia and killed my Atronach and the hunters before I even knew. I turned around to see who Lydia was fighting and was immediately zapped to death and so ended my first battle upon Solstheim. And it was pretty epic.

I had a couple building Lakeview Manor. Watching myself working at the carpenter's table in bright sunlight while the shadows of birds flying over head went over me gave me a good 'wow' feeling.

Then I ran out of lumber and went to see Hert. It was getting late, and I caught her just as she was heading back inside, with dusk falling and the light nearly gone. The secret vampire smiled at me and said something she's never said to me before: "Why don't you stay a while?" The hairs on the back of my neck went up. It was a bad 'wow' feeling.

Became "thane" to Solitude, have my own house there, have my "house carl", and also outside the Dragon Bridge area came across a random dog in a cabin that now resides in my house. Just a "wow" moment to be able to build up in a game like that.
MEEKO!

In my case it just made me freak out and think dragons were coming.

my first giant camp, when i first got there i was oblivious to any sense of danger, i just went in, took some cheese, saw a giant (no mamoths yet),the giant looked mad now and out of nowere a mamouth FELL FROM THE SKY (those things are so glitchy), i spazed for a moment in a shock/confused/can't stop laughing state and as a looked back at the screen, the giant charged at me and before i could start running, i was already in orbit.

also when i saw a city gaurd jump on a dragon and stabbed it's skull five times
