Describing themselves as “relatively new” toSkyrim, Reddit user SuperPooper2019 shared a screenshot of something odd happening in the 2011 game. It looks as though the player has interrupted some weird ritual in which multiple NPCs have gathered around a corpse in the middle of the street. The Reddit user asks what’s going on, and a number of commenters have said that they are mourning or at least checking on the body. The fact that multiple characters, including Nazeem, are gathered around this semi-naked corpse makes it look like some weird post-death rite.
This is one of many amusing aspects of the game that many fans have come across in this past decade or so. NPCs in the game sometimes gather around deceased people and creatures either to marvel or mourn. While there are some bugs that can be frustrating and game-breaking, there are actually someSkyrimglitches that can be useful, such as the notorious one that involves a basket and a shopkeeper’s head. In any case, what SuperPooper2019 shows that there are still people discovering the game to this day, and long-time players can forget how strange some things in the game can seem to newcomers.
Given how long the game has been out, it’s not surprising that so manypeople are now waiting forThe Elder Scrolls 6. Currently, there is no known release date for it or even any idea of what stage of development it’s in. So for now, all fans can do is be patient and keeping finding amusingly weird things inSkyrim.
