True I was impressed when I first saw that. just wish Bethesda would complete the whole package, that`s all.

I suggested in another thread that when NPCs (like bandits, for example) spot one of their own men lying dead on the ground, they should be searching for the player until either:

1) They find you
2) You kill them
3) You leave the area

It's absurd that they'll spot the body, say "I'm going to find whoever did this!" but then proceed to sit in a chair and nibble on some bread. That takes ADD to a whole new level.

And then players would have to think about dragging corpses away from view, a la Metal Gear Solid, which would make stalking bandits a bit more interesting.

*shoots Bandit*
*waves hand* I guess it was nothing.
Bandit: Huh. I guess it was nothing.

Even some better dialogue after being shot would have worked for me. "I must have scared them off," rather than, "Must've been my imagination."

I have actually heard that dialogue occosianolly but yah the standard is the imagination one. What bothered me is when they where actually bumping into me and pushing me of their pathing and then saying it.
