Words "To Skyrim" Stuck On Screen?

Post » Tue Jun 19, 2012 2:00 am

While doing one of the Totems of Hircine Quests, I found a woman tied up in a spider web; I set her free and she ran to the entrance of the cave but did not leave it, which is a bug in itself because she is supposed to leave. So upon reloading an earlier save to try again with hopes the [censored] game would work properly, I found the words "To Skyrim" stuck on my screen, and it follows me wherever I look. Upon reloading earlier and later saves, I found that the words are still present.

Has anyone encountered this, have any idea how to fix this, or know what it's caused by or if my game is going to corrupt soon? I'm getting very [censored] phucking sick of this.

This happened to me, and all I did was go into an 'open' dungeon (one that doesn't have a door). The words 'To XYZ Grove' came up and replaced 'To Skyrim' and went away as soon as I got in the cave

I had this bug in the first week of release, reloading earlier saves didn't work... restarting the game solved it for me.

Fus Ro Dah solves the woman being stuck in the cave, and entering another "open" dungeon or cave should fix the words on the screen.

I'm not willing to restart over 100 hours into the game.

What is "Fus Ro Dah?"

I think he meant re-starting as in quitting the game, going back to the desktop/XMB/dashboard and running the game again.
