Embarrassing things you do in Skyrim

Post » Thu Jun 07, 2012 3:21 pm

I spent 5 minutes chasing a bunny with a warhammer, but after a while I gave up. They move fast.

I was just picturing this, but with the Benny Hill "Chase song" in the background, Hilarious!

I usually pile unwanted body loot next to the bodies who I have placed in embarrassing positions. Or, if there's one nearby, I will throw them in the nearest fire.

I like to run naked around town while humming the main theme to myself...Wha?...Oh you meant in the game itself?

Ha! This made me laugh in real life!

I once spent about fifteen minutes playing with a scantily clad dead body. I'd only just realized that you could drag corpses about, so naturally I just began tugging the poor dear this way and that and draping her over things and marveling at the fact that I could position her arms and legs individually and generally being a colossal weirdo. I still have a fascination with dead bodies in Skyrim. Probably not a healthy one.

Oh my God, this. There's a point early on in Markarth where you end up with a dead guy and girl (attempting not to spoil) on the ground. I looted them naked and used the drag function to make one dance for the other NPCs standing around ("Oh! What happened?")... Then I flipped the guy on the ground face up, and dropped the lady suggestively on top of him with a somewhat maniacal cackle. Not one of my finer moments, I'll admit. Pretty sure my girlfriend thought I was deranged. >.>

Unfortunately, the physics engines keep me from decorating my house how I want, like I did in Morrowind, so my macabre table full of human flesh, hearts, and giant's toes bedecked with flowers, fine booze, a platter of sweets, a bloodsoaked rag, and a full set of Dwemer placesettings... won't stay put. -_- I also had a tradition in both Morrowind and Oblivion of my vampire keeping a silver daggar in her possession at all times. Both my 'main' characters also always carried a gold kanet flower on their persons. I haven't picked a suitable replacement in Oblivion, but I'm thinking dragon's tongue or nightshade for Skyrim.

Also, I talk to myself. Hang me. Kudos if you know that quote.

I sometimes yell at chickens. And while excavating caves I like to lick my pickaxe to see if I discovered a gold vein. Silver is good too.

I compulsively hide dead bodies or zombify and then turn them to ash especially the ones that refuse to fade so now ulfric and the stonefist guy are dumped in a corner in the kitchen and I have an obsession with collecting any books that have volumes, I couldnt care less about the unique books or the ones with no follow up but I have to collect anything with a second or third volume. I also find myself practicing archery anytime I see a target and fus ro dahing plates etc off tables.

I haven't done anything like this in Skyrim yet, but in Oblivion I did it with my one character. I created a murderer who didn't wear armour and he started the Dark Brotherhood questline. He killed the guy in the inn and stole his clothes to wear. He then decided that he didn't like the organization of the Dark Brotherhood and decided to go his own chaotic way. He would travel to a city over night and arrive in the morning. Once there, he wanders around for the entirety of the day talking to people, scouting their behaviour to see which was the biggest ass in town. At night, he would then sneak into their homes, kill them in their sleep, strip down and then sleep in their bed. In the early morning, he would get up put on his victim's clothing and place his last victim's clothing in the dresser of his new victim. He would then travel to the next city, rinse, and repeat.

When Lydia got killed, i was so sad (she`d been with me for 19 levels and almost everywhere) that I walked back to Solitude from the outer reaches slowly in respect to her.

I mean I walked... all the way. Took a while.

Yeah, I walked slowly back to town after Lydia died also, except I was walking slowly so I wouldn't attract too much attention. I had just taken Lydia out in the woods, killed her, and dumped her body into the river and watched it float away.

My most satisfying moment in Skyrim. I hated that whiny, nagging cow. :tongue:

Semjaza mined silver in a certain prison because they told her if the prisoners didn't meet quota, they didn't get fed. :cold:

yes but as an bonus you ended up with a lot of silver, and no they did not feed you anyway that is the real bumper.

I tend to speak out loud to my followers, especially when I'm angry with them. Besides that, I seem to have a weird habit of tossing dead thieves into the canol in Riften.

This make us two, I loved the Riften thieves, shortest way back the enchanter station after soultraping them, then the canol.

Me: [censored][censored][censored][censored][censored][censored][censored][censored]

I tend to do that a lot. I'm especially creative when I get fused off the cliff. :P

Sometimes I will murder someone, turn invinsible, pick up the corpse, then go third person and pretend the corpse is posessed as I dangle it around in front of people.

The fact that I play Skyrim is enough for my friends to ridicule me for.

Your "Sneaky Salmon" thing is rather embarrassing though :tongue:

Yeah I also do this... except I wriggle them along the floor and pretend they're a snake. :blink:

Um, i like to position dead bodies (bodies of people whom i hated) in extremely weird and disgusting positions :biggrin:
Such as this http://i.imgur.com/cREKV.jpg

Warning: Its really quite sick and disgusting. But i really hated galmar stone fist, soooo. :smile:
Although to be fair i was trying to get him in the position of a roast pig on the table at first, his body just refused to orientate in the correct direction and somehow ended up like that.

Awesome -----funny

I haven`t read the whole thread so don`t know if others had this happen:

Was wandering around exploring when I came to the Stenadrr`s hovel. I walked up to the first lady making some leather.

"Put something on- ANYTHING!" she said.

It was then I realised I wasn`t wearing anything at all and being in 1st person I couldn`t tell! Made me laugh.

Come to think of it I did this mistake in Morrowind too where I was also duly informed.

Hehe...I will often verbally, as in "out loud", respond to comments said to or around my character. Or I'll say hi to certain characters as I walk or run past them....things like that.

I don't need the game to give me 8 conversation options to chose from...I just say it.

I did that once. It was fun but started getting distracting as i started to look for more theatrical wording for further immersion.

Things i do that might be considered embarrassing-

If a corpse only has a single gold coin on it i wont take it considering it their payment for the boatman as they cross the river styx.
I'll always give charity to a begger.
I always stop to listen when an npc is talking to me.
I'll raise a female corpse to fight for me after taking her clothes off. Nothing like naked chicks who'll fight for me :biggrin:
I'll drink some wine mead or ale after doing something strenuous like chopping wood or mining ore.
I always do my best to reply in the nicest ways when speaking to npcs even if they're acting like jerks.
I never acttack anyone or a group who warns me to stay back out of respect of them giving me a chance to leave instead of going psycho on me.
I'll never steal anything that isnt mine thats marked as stealing if i were to take it.

If I'm in a house or a shop or something, and I accidentally knock something off a shelf, table, etc., I always put it right back where I found it. :angel:
