How Skyrim Breaks Its Own Illusion

GamingUnion.net: "While strolling along the vast expanse of wilderness between Skyrim's major settlements, I chanced upon two mages dueling each other to the death. One was a fire mage, the other a frost mage. After killing them both (they were hostile, I promise), I took a moment to marvel at the consistency of it all.

I have to say though, some NPc's do recognise player race, I play as an Altmer, and have encountered race specific dialogue. I assume, playing as a Nord would also (should also) deliver race specific dialogue.

But c'mon we all have to suspend disbelief when playing games, it's the nature of the medium. The bugs don't help I admit, but it's in no way a deal breaker.

That's ridiculous, lol. I'm waiting for the guy that says its too cpu-intensive for the Switch 2. This game is old af and has been released like 17 times.
