Disappearing Spouses and Dodgey PC UI

Post » Wed May 16, 2012 5:34 pm

Overall I am loving the game so far, and have had very few problems with it. There are occasional times where it crashes, and the game just disappears without any noise or warning, but this doesn't happen often enough to be a real problem.

However I have encountered two problems that have been serious enough to make the game less enjoyable.

The first is a glitch with the marriage ceremony that others have talked about. The spouse leaves before the ceremony is completely finished, along with the guests. While it just appears to be a small bug at first it often results in the NPC disappearing completely, as well as stopping you from talking to them or anyone else in the room. While it was pretty funny at first, It's just become a pain now, because I can't get married to half the people in the game without them vanishing.

The second is a problem with the UI. When I manually click on the "exit" option in conversations it simultaneously selects the last dialogue option. Although it usually only meant listening to dialogue while you walked away it became annoying when the last option accepted or declined a quest or opened a shop tab. I've got into the habit of tabbing out of conversations instead to avoid the problem, but I'm not convinced that it's supposed to be like that.

Another problem with the UI is trying to navigate the skills menu. At the moment killing a Dragon is actually easier than trying to navigate the different perk tree's with the PC controls. I'm getting better at using the UI, but it does really feel like it's designed primarily for consoles.

Like I said, I really like the game, but I really want a fix for that annoying marriage glitch.
