    The worst part about killing that chicken in Riverwood is that, at this point in the game there are NO guards stationed in Riverwood to actually arrest you, so you don't get the option to simply pay off your bounty and resolve the hostilities. You either die, kill a bunch of potentially important NPCs, or have to skip town for a bit (and maybe pay off your bounty in Whiterun proper).

    • @insaincaldo
      @insaincaldo Год назад +20

      And if you fight you will have a kill on sight bounty, once you hit Whiterun. With the surrender mechanic being iffy at best, you might not have a chance to talk yourself out of that one. Better flee to the next Hold and spend some time avoiding the center of the map. Woopsies

      @@Wifenis Honestly, Skyrim's crime sytem is something most players learn the hard way (e.g. "why is EVERYONE suddenly attacking me?") Skyrim is a perfect example where just because you HAVE the option to do something, doesn't mean it's a good idea -- case in point: a "Take/Steal" prompt pops up for literally every item within grabbing range, and if you're not paying attention to it, it can be easy to accidentally "take" (steal) the wrong item, getting NPCs mad at you and causing a scene.

I just didn't care enough about the game yet to put in that kind of effort, and the entire town trying to murder me because I killed a chicken was really immersion breaking for what was supposed to be an RPG. It just completely turned me off to the game instead as the punishment was too harsh for the crime, both in game and out.

      You know how there are a bunch of towns across rural USA that don't really have anything interesting going on so they try and come up with some sort of attraction to put them on the map, like the world's biggest ball of twine or a chicken that can supposedly tell the future? Well, I think that's what the Riverwood chicken was. That was their prophetic chicken, the only thing that gave that village a sense of identity, and you just killed it to satisfy a passing violent urge. You deserve everything you got.

Eivor would grant him an honourable death in combat out of respect. Leofrith wants to go out swinging. To spare him is to shame him. If he survives he lives a miserable life seeing what his rulers and home have been twisted into. 4, Who cares if the templars actively come after you? You kind of have to kill them all anyway and they're fun fights. Let them come. Less work hunting them.

    In Majora's Mask, it is possible to kill the thief Sakon. On the first night when he robs the old lady of her bomb bag, normally you stop him by hitting him with your sword, causing him to drop the goods and run away. But if you instead shoot the bag full of bombs with an arrow, it explodes, killing him. Which is the worst possible outcome because it not only fails Kafei's questline because he can't track Sakon back to his lair, but also the old lady won't give you the bomb mask for helping her and you won't get the bigger bomb bag available for sale at the bomb shop since. You know. You blew it up. Good job, hero.

While there are no in-game consequences for killing him (beyond the standard effects of killing any shopkeeper), it's considered *extremely* bad form to do so; even players doing self-imposed challenges to exterminate every monster in the game will generally leave him be, and those who kill him him by accident will often make public apologies and/or do various forms of self-imposed in-game penance.

But then, i killed every hostile anything and animals because they could be crafted into food. Not to heal, but for the exp. Hugely overleveled with my last character having passed 425 as i recall but I can't remember by how much.
    That said, i never killed a skyrim chicken that was already alive. The ones animated by other idiots or that one chicken worshipping necromancer i would put down.

    If you do another episode of this, I'd suggest the Mysterious Stranger from Fallout 3 and New Vegas. He only appears in vats making him impossible to attack normally. You can, however, summon him using console commands, causing him to stand next to you. Attacking him will be a death sentence because not only does he have 10,000 heath, he also carries a unique 44. Magnum revolver that does 9,999 damage. Even more insulting is that if you did this in fallout 3 and were to somehow manage to kill him, he drops absolutely nothing as his items are marked as non-player. In New Vegas it's actually impossible to kill him because he is marked as essential and cannot die, when his health is depleted he will simply pass out for a short amount of time. Note that this doesn't work in fallout 4 or 76 because he doesn't actually attack you if you attack him in those games.
