10 Really Weird But True Things About Skyrim
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is considered one of the best video games ever released, gaining critical acclaim just after its publication and selling 7 million copies to retailers in its first week. Probably, it is best known for the memes that surround it, particularly the one with the arrow to the knee. Besides these particularities, Skyrim still has many more to offer in the terms of weird or unusual facts. To find out the oddest 10 facts and happenings that can appear in this game, we invite you to keep watching this video!
Naked couriers deliver you letters
Not actually the full Monty situation here, but some of the couriers might surprise you with their clothing, or more correctly, the lack of it. Wearing only a piece of cloth to cover their intimate parts, it’s a good thing they have a nice pair of leather boots to keep them warm. Besides the fact that meeting such a character might strike you as odd, you have to admit it’s also kind of funny to receive news from a half-nude, bearded guy.
“Took an arrow in the knee” is just a… line
Even though there are multiple theories concerning the origin of this infamous line, Todd Howard, Bethesda’s chief game developer, revealed in a Kotaku article that it was written by Emil Pagliarulo. The senior game designer just wanted to make the NPCs seem more real and thus created a discourse to make them so. As we know, viral content simply appears. It is not made with a clear intention to become a hit and the “took an arrow in the knee” meme certainly is the perfect example to showcase just that.
