Interesting Moments in Quests that Players Missed

There is also the reverse situaition for the dark brotherhood and civil war quest, if the emperor is in solitude, ulfric freaks out and delays the siege

[@Gr3nadgr3gory]

If Ulfric was smart he'd see this as nothing but a plus. There's no way the empire could deny a stormcloak victory if we kill the emperor, too.

"Yo Astrid I'm sorry but I couldn't finish the contract Ulfeic shouted him to death before I could get there" doesn't sound too good, does it?

[@TheShadowSentinel]

​@@Gr3nadgr3gory no, but until now Empire had limited forces stationed in Skyrim. If Ulfric murdered Emperor, Empire would bring more legions in Skyrim as retaliation.

[@deathtrooper7760]

​@@Gr3nadgr3goryand after that every single soldier close to skyrim would be there in days. In the first week you would have the southern region full of imperial legion's. More than half of the population is loyal to the Emperor occupying the holds won't change that. The population would be up in arms revolting, any remaining hold loyal to the empire or there remaining forces would be on the offensive either directly or similar to the storm cloaks at the beginning hiding in there home territory which they know in and out and fighting from there. In game when the Emperor is coming to skyrim the civil war is paused so he can visit every hold and it's city. No storm cloak is stupid enough to at least voice the idea of killing the Emperor. Ulfric would even loose support in his faction, it's one thing to fight for there beliefs, but a completely different thing killing the head of the empire your god founded.

This game is so amazing and diverse in its story telling and options and how things effect the world. I killed a woman in morhal. Then later found a hut by riverwood and killed a witch. It the hut was a letter the witch had written to her sister of morthal about joining her and training to become a witch, the same name as the woman I killed. The consequences are brilliant how things tie together. Make a friend, when they die, you get the inheritance lol.

[@Cyrus_T_Laserpunch]

To be fair it would be annoying to have a guild be locked off by RNG. I actually failed to pickpocket the ring onto Brand Shei since there's a non-zero chance of being detected without a lot of levels in a skill that is otherwise useless. I don't think a roll of the dice should prevent you from accessing a quest line. Personally I think the problem is the quest gets sprung on you, it shouldn't be possible to even be considered until you're a sufficiently skilled thief (stealth and pickpocket levels) and/or maybe have made enough septims selling stolen items to fences, but that would require NPCs to carry items of value and houses to have been made with actual substance including items worth stealing, instead of 5 septims and some wooden plates.

That female khajiit is so annoying. I killed her right outside of Honeyside and propped up her body by the barrels. Every time a guard passes by, s/he says something like "Gods, what happened?"

When Dreth Confronts the Dragonborn about the Crown, you end up battling him and his bodyguards. Instead of a usual fight...why not use "Storm Call" to soften them up and then once the battle is over, use "Clear Skies" to calm the weather...That's exactly what i did in the outskirts of whiterun near Larius farm. Always find a way to Utilize your shouts to gain a creative advantage against a formidable foe, especially when outnumbered. Storm Call is Great for clearing out forts and areas with many countless enemies. Then using clear skies will stop the torrential downpour and lightning so it doesn't harm innocent people if you accidentally wander into a town while it's still active...
