It is a similar animation when they both descend with their wings flapping and their tail curled slightly beneath them.

Cliff-racer PTSD.

All the Morrowind vets got it.

I got me this reoccurring nightmare where I'm surrounded by 20 cliff-racers in a blight storm while being over-encumbered.

Wake up in cold sweats every time.

Yep... everytime I see their shadows on the ground I start to freak out... "what... CLIFFRACER?!!? Oh... it's just a dragon. Phew!"

Honestly, I was hoping they would make a return in this game. It would be awesome for bethesda to drive home the presence of dragons and then not say anything about other possible air threats. Can you imagine seeing that shadow and looking around expecting to see a dragon only to find it was a cliffracer? Man the presence of the air threat would be on a whole new level.

OR perhaps 5-6 cliffracers start attacking a dragon when its flying around. Possibilities are endless.

Oh god, Cliff Racers..

Hope they never return in any Elder Scrolls game. Ever.

Little-known secret- they tried to reimplement Cliff Racers in Skyrim. The design team all decided to try it out together at the same time.

There were no survivors.

Cliff Racers couldn't be in this game. If they were, the whole game would consist of Alduin getting the hell out of Skyrim in pants-[censored]ting fear...

The main quest is about them. They have ... evolved.

(And yet everybody wonders where they actually came from)
