    Shhhh. Your opinion means nothing to me, padawan. Tiny cricket making noise. I'm going to sleep anyway. :p

    For serious though, it grabbed me by my attention, made me shudder and shake my head. Those kinds of things get me. They just do.

    Back to your regularly scheduled program.

    Might be worth putting this in the bug report section or reporting it within the game as well.

    Something small like this should be able to be changed in with a future patch without issue.

    The document is written in character. It's Dahfnar's mistake, not the devs'. Dahfnar is a Nord, so it fits the stereotype.

    C'mon, really, is the new trend really searching for ANYTHING you can whine about to bond with other uhm... desperate ones? NO my world is ending cause they didnt manage to align a rock to the slope... Harsh life and need to find a vent? (not personal, general) rest of us do too, but the screeching... the screeching, expect perfect, get me ONE example of that, rest of us are actually trying to have fun...

    Yeah... everybody knows. This still takes 0.2 seconds to fix and there's no reason not to fix it.

    Damn, hoisted by my own petard.

    Hoist, not 'hoisted'.

    "Shakespeare's phrase, "hoist with his own petard", is an idiom that means "to be harmed by one's own plan to harm someone else" or "to fall into one's own trap", implying that one could be lifted (blown) upward by one's own bomb, or in other words, be foiled by one's own plan."
    The problem with society these days is that no one drinks from the skulls of their enemies anymore.

    But the past tense of hoist is hoisted. If you're going to use the Shakespearean phrase word-for-word, then yes, "hoist with his own petard." But in this case the person is referring to himself not someone else, so he has to use past tense, therefore it is hoisted, and it is by (because he started it and did it himself) rather than with (because I did nothing of the sort.) Now if you were able to follow along with that, you're doing well.

    Actually that's a punctuation error, not a spelling error, and there are more punctuation errors in this entire letter, including this page, than that one.


    It’s immersion, the npc can’t spell

    If you read the entire letter, there aren't any other glaring errors except punctuation, ergo the npc is doing just fine with his spelling. Since this generation seems to have difficulties with punctuation and when to use what form of word (too, to and there, they're and their as examples) then it's not an npc error but a programmer error. Sorry.
