Foxes do lead to ore veins : V

Everytime I see a fox I follow it and it leads me to an ore vein. It NEVER fails for me...go ahead, try it yourself

If you follow anything around long enough you'll probably find an ore vein.

And Elk lead you to rivers.

they go right to it, then stop a bit. And run off in another direction

Bandits lead you to more bandits.
Miners lead you to mines.
Daedra lead you to Daedric shrines.

But seriously.

It's fascinating to see how superstitions are born in a virtual world, very interesting way to see into the past and why humans see agency through confirmation bias.

It is said that foxes will lead ye to the blood'o the mountains, boy. Seek ye a fox with pick in hand and birth the iron from the pillars of the land.

Hmm, do rabbits lead you to farms?

Has anyone who is doubting this actually tested it? I know its false until proven true, but it couldn't hurt for more people to try. I myself havn't been in the Skyrim mood for a while....Yet I spend so much internet time on these forums.

LMAO. You have a point. How long did you follow the fox OP?

Honestly it sounds rather silly at best. Like finding Mew under a truck or something silly.

Don't mock my naive childhood...

I just tried this...
I followed the fox for about 2 minutes and it led me to a cliff where is stopped at its edge and ceased moving all together. I think it possibly froze to death but im not 100% sure...

Bandits lead you to level ups.

There are no such Radiant AI behavior packages on the fox actors that lead to ore veins. You are imagining things.

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 4:07 pm

I want this to be a schoolyard myth. Let it be one! Too bad the game is rated M, or kids would be saying how a fox led them to ore.

Great point. I can't stop saying the second sentence, and with a terrible Irish accent. Such wonderful metaphor and imagery in such a small amount of space. I love it.

and giants lead you to a first class view of space.

Giants actually have baseball teams. And are hoarding all the double clubs.

Okay, what about giving the op a break? Let's just try it and see for ourselves.

I seriously want this to become a rumor that even the truth will never kill. It will be killed, sadly. I want it not to. I did try this almost, but my current Nightcrawler role play means he is too curious about everything to follow a fox.

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 5:05 pm

I almost want to fire up my ps3 and go follow a fox, waiting for 1.6 though.

Bwahahaha!
