Man, this really is one buggy-ass game.
Yeah, that is the big criticism about Bethesda. Most game companies release a game, and then have to succeed or fail by its success. Bethesda get away with releasing unfinished garbage, but since their games are so one of a kind, people continue to put up with it. Vanilla Skyrim works pretty well now, but DLC introductions have chopped away at it a bit. Fallout 3 is pretty damn solid now but that took tons of patching I think.
Well, given the insane number of possible interactions, I'm not sure it'd be possible to create a game that wasn't at least somewhat buggy. Still, seems like they could be a bit better about releasing fixes as the problems crop up. I think both of my glitches were supposed to have been resolved, but they're still problematic.

Go find me a sandbox game that isn't filled with bugs.

It is barely a "sandbox" game in the truest sense of the word. If it is, then every other open world game is too. And pretty much all of those are less buggy than skyrim.

Besides the PC version of GTA4 was one giant bug upon release. I GTA4 and Skyrim FYI.
This isn't a bug really, but I find it annoying as shit when I come to the temple with Esbern (name escaping me), a dragon attacks, and the Forsworn attack me instead of the damned dragon! Priorities people!
I only listen to electro-post dubprog. You've probably never heard of it.

Priorities people!Wow, this exact scenario has happened to me a lot of times throughout my different playthroughs.
Zook is right.
Looks fine to me, but I'm not a visiophile.
Here is a screenshot of that Tropical Tamriel. I'm going to uninstall it, because I don't quite like it. But, it looked fancy

But, it looked fancyYeah, I reinstalled just to try it out. It looked great in the screenshots, but it didn't look very good in-game due to very lo-res textures and bright grass, and I am not a fan of the lighting. It needs some serious texture work (with the help of the rest of the modding community), and it needs to be compatible with other outdoor lighting mods.
Heh, I've always been a big fan of frenzy. Especially since I power it up with dual casting and other perks to hit higher level targets. Just hit someone, hide, listen to chaos ensue, and repeat until 1 usually heavily injured opponent remains.
ITT: We discover that Alice is elvish... Psshh, your status as a hobbit has just been a cover. Your cover has been blown.
Just finished all the Daedric quests to the letter, and I have all the right artefacts needed for the Oblivion Walker Achievement- So why hasn't it granted
Nope, normal Azura's star, Masque of Clavicus Vile, Mehrune's Razor, Staff of Corruption, Saviour's Hide, which I think are the only one's you can miss. I was very careful about following the quest lines.
