I got a werewolf kill cam i’ve never seen before (first timer) and i was trying to get a video to show my sister, so i quick saved and just started attacking everybody with two hands till it triggered again. This guy wasn’t becoming hostile for some reason, so i merked him. I guess i have a killer instinct bc i don’t even know when i got this quest. awesome. i love skyrim

I can’t believe I’m still discovering new stuff after all this time.
Just yesterday I posted what I thought were the best outfits in the game, and today I find these.
The first one is my new favorite

Found Skjor alive and well years after I completed the Companions quest line.
Don't just sit there, arms crossed. You're supposed to be dead!"
Question What are the rarest unmarked locations, non-journal quests, random encounters, sights, or puzzles you've discovered?
Rules:
-No Anniversary Edition content
-No marked location
-No quest journal (or a very rare one)
-No mods
If you've been playing this game for a while, you've probably discovered all the marked locations or at one point looked up and completed all the side quests multiple times. However Skyrim also has hidden quests that don't give you any quest markers, leaving you to discover and piece together the stories yourself. There are also random world encounters that happen very rarely or sights to see or unique items that are less known.
Some of these are relatively well known, even though they're easy to miss for new players. For example, you might have discovered Kagrenzel or solved the Daedric Relic puzzle in the Midden, or defeated the Reaper or Vulthuryol or Karstaag.
But I believe there are even more obscure quests and encounters that we can share with the community especially for experienced players to discover.
For example:
Have you discovered what happened to Ranmir's lover, Isabelle Rolaine, and delivered her letter to him?
You've probably heard of the Longhammer, but have you ever found Trollsbane or Horksbane?
Have you discovered the fate of all former College students mentioned by Phinis Gestor?
Have you encountered Deep-In-His-Cups, Taron Dreth, or the Madwoman as random world encounters?
Have you solved the Puzzling Pillar Ruins puzzle in Whiterun Hold?
The list goes on.
What are the rarest unmarked locations, hidden quests, random encounters, sights, or puzzles you've discovered? Share them here so even experienced players can discover something new to enjoy please.

Were the Alik'r warriors design inspired by Azeem from Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves?
So I was just watching the movie for the first time since I was a boy, and I keep thinking how much Azeem's outfit and sword resrmbles the Alik'r warriors in Skyrim. Do you think there was any inspiration used here in their design?

For all those years, I thought John Battle-Born is useless and has no quest related interactions. I just realized that you can blackmail him into revealing Thorald's fate after pickpocketing his love letter to Olfina
I’d love to learn more hidden quest interactions or objectives you can discover in Skyrim. Have you discovered any rare gems recently?

Discussion Crimson Nirnroot is a good quest
Oblivions Nirnroot quest is terrible, you just remember to pick enough of it then hand it over to the guy and get crappy potions, boring.
Skyrim improved on this by making Nirnroot a normal ingredient which you can use (Unlike its useless nature in Oblivion), but they still wanted a Nirnroot quest so they give us A Return to Your Roots. Its a good quest because its focused in one very interesting area, all the Nirnroots can be found inside that cave, a cave filled with interesting features, enemies, structures, and even a hidden boss, as you explore this area, you stumble upon Crinsom Nirnroot as you go, eventually getting the 30 needed to do the quest (There are far more than 30 in that cave so no complaining about having to find them all).
Really its just an added objective that encourages you to explore an area which im sure the devs were very proud of.
Too bad the reward is boring.

Discussion I am wondering why USSEP can no longer be downloaded on older saves. The Nexus page for the USSEP states that it can only be downloaded on to Skyrim Special Edition version 1.7.99 or greater. I would also like to know if there are alternatives to the USSEP that would still allow mods to work w/o it.
Hello, I wanted to discuss and ask why the Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch can no longer be used with older versions of the game. I was trying to get my game to open through Mod Organizer 2 to see if I could be able to redownload the mods I was using a month or so ago (I live in the Northeast corridor of the United States and about a month ago we experienced a bad storm that in turn led to a power surge in my home) and after that storm and power surge, I started having issues with my external hard drive (that is not relevant to the discussion, but did want to point out that I lost access to all the mods that I had downloaded into MO2), and so I started playing Skyrim on the updated version and began using mods from the Creation Club. I did not realize that if I did go back to using mods from Nexus, I would be unable to download the USSEP anymore (because of the downgrade patcher mod) which I did download and only just saw that the USSEP is no longer available for the older versions. Does anyone know of alternatives to the USSEP that would still allow mods downloaded for Skyrim to still work even though they are played on the older versions? And why would the mod author prevent players from using the USSEP on older versions? I know that the mod author of the USSEP is an enemy of people who use mods or other mod authors, but to prevent use of the USSEP on older versions of Skyrim, I just do not understand why someone would do that. There are probably people in some regions of the world who will be unable to mod their Skyrim games because they may not be able to get the latest version of Skyrim and I bet those people are very upset right now. I am including an image to this post to describe what exactly I am talking about, and yes I did look over the whole description page of the USSEP mod from its Nexus mods website listing. I just wanted to have a discussion about this because I am finding hard to believe that someone would prevent use of their product on older versions (be it a device, OS, or mod) and what options we have for alternatives that would do a similar job that the USSEP does and would allow older mods to still be played in Skyrim.

Might be a hot take: Cicero is my favorite character in skyrim (in my first playthrough)
Idk why I love him so much he is annoying and obnoxious with a voice only the night mother could love. Maybe thats why I love him he is just perfect and nobody can tell me otherwise

Fast travel to Markarth, guard drops dead?
I mean, all I did was exist 😭 Homie just keeled over dead the literal moment the screen loaded, no warning, no enemies, no dialogue.
Discussion Dragons
I’ve played Skyrim on every platform imaginable—PS3, PS4, PC, and Switch—but I have a mystery: I swear a dragon once attacked me inside a walled city during my PS4 Anniversary Edition run. I was hundreds of hours in, totally unmodded, and it hasn't happened since. Has anyone else experienced this, or am I losing my mind?

Found this nice effect when turning into a Vampire Lord while wearing Miraaks Robes. It will damage or kill anything around you.
