Gough. In fact, Michael Gough voices over half the male population of Skyrim.

Added DiffLines:

** Updates to the base game break mods that make use of [=DLLs=] due to inaccurate version numbers. This especially stung with the ''Anniversary Edition'' updates to the ''Special Edition'' in 2021 as it was the first update to the game in years, effectively locking out the use of mods whose authors were uninterested or unable to update to the newest version.

* KillerApp: Despite being released on a bevy of platforms during and after launch, it sold the best on UsefulNotes/Xbox360, only being rivaled by PC sales. The Xbox 360 version was even bundled with consoles during the holiday season of 2012, and during launch week, it made up for 59% of the game's overall sales.

* BeamMeUpScotty: The [[MemeticMutation famous]] quote from the guards actually goes "Then I took an arrow ''in'' the knee", not "''to'' the knee" as it's often quoted.

The [[MemeticMutation famous]] quote from the guards actually goes "Then I took an arrow ''in'' the knee", not "''to'' the knee" as it's often quoted.quoted.
** The equally memetic "Must have been the wind" quote is commonly associated with ''Skyrim'''s [=NPCs=], making fun of their ArtificialStupidity. However, this line is never actually said by any character in the game in this context. Instead, this line actually originated from the previous game in the series, ''[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion Oblivion]]''.
** Mirmulnir's "Dovahkiin! No!!" line is often misquoted as "Dovahkiin!? No!". This misconception is because of the commonly used Unofficial Patch, which altered the subtitle to match the newly voiced version of the line added by the mod.[[labelnote:note]]The line is left unvoiced in the English language versions of the game.[[/labelnote]]


Added DiffLines:

* DevelopmentGag:
** Many features and ideas seen in ''Skyrim'''s DLC expansions and the Creation Club were repurposed from a developer game jam done after the game was released, which was shown to the public at DICE 2012. These features included buildable houses, Vampire Lords, rideable dragons, Goblins[[labelnote:note]]While the models seen in the game jam were colored blue and used for the Rieklings in ''Dragonborn'', actual Goblins wouldn't be seen until 2019 with the Creation Club[[/labelnote]], and many more.

** The Ring of Khajiit artifact was originally meant to be obtained in the base game, but it was scrapped, leaving behind only a model in the game's files. The ''Fishing'' Creation later added the Ring of Khajiit as one of the many artifacts the player can fish up, using the exact same model that was left in the files.


Added DiffLines:

*** The child voicesets also include dying screams, despite also being essential. This is left over from an earlier point in development when children could die onscreen.

** As evidenced by how she greets the player ("It's a fine day with you around") after putting her husband's war horn at the Shrine of Talos in Whiterun Hold, at one point, the player would've been able to marry ''Elisif the Fair''. Presumably, Bethesda scrapped this idea because it would've made the Last Dragonborn High King of Skyrim if they sided with the Imperials. Similarly, the fact that Ingun Black-Briar says the same line after her miscellaneous ingredient-collecting quest is completed hints that she might also have been a candidate for marriage at some point. This was likely scrapped because having Maven Black-Briar for a mother-in-law might have required entirely too much special coding and voice acting. Alternately, the fact that they both have the line might simply be because Elisif and Ingun have the same voice actress (Corri English) and voice set ([=FemaleYoungEager=], and the line may have been attached to them by accident, since said voice set is also used by a dozen of other female [=NPCs=], some of them being actual potential spouses (Ysolda, Camillia Valerius, Jordis...).
