The owned bed in the Whiterun house got me as well. It turns out that the single bed in the sideroom is for your Housecarl, Lydia. You get the big, bouncy double bed.
You know, she bothers me. Why does she get her own room? I paid for the damn house lady! And all she does is stay in my room anyway. That's borderline creepy to me. She jut sits there all day long and eats my food. I am starting to think the next time I come home she has put on weight and can't leave the house :)

I don't actually take her with me on any missions. Could be that I'll user her sometime, but I don't like people following me when I do missions. But I have thought about purchasing a war dog...

Nothing really bad, just a little time consuming.

Was on a quest to escort a Mage from the college to some ruins just south of the college to explore. When I entered the ruins from the world map, The mage teleported just northeast of Whiterun. Took him about 20 minutes to run back to the entrance, all the way around the eastern end of the mountain, back to the college, and then back to the ruins.

It was only then that I remembered "I can choose to wait here for a few hours and he should have been all the way back in about 15 seconds"

I figure he teleported there since it appears to be 0,0 on the map, otherwise, I got nothing.

I've had a really annoying one. I was asked to fetch the Waters of Life book for someone in the mage tower, but I'd already found it during a previous quest. He won't take it though, and the map marker keeps telling me to go back to the cave, to the now empty chest. I can't get it out of my inventory either.

I have no idea why some people are complaining, Skyrim's Giant based space program is awesome! One of the most hilarious glitches ever.

Then again...
I have some issues with dead things resuming their idle animations. Let me tell you, shitting your britches is a perfectly acceptable response to seeing the icetroll you just killed standing upright upon turning around.

Also, chickens have a higher worth than children in Skyrim. I know this because toasting one chicken entails a lynch mob and a 40 gold fine (same as for assault), while torching a child does nothing at first. Can't say I blame them though, those children are fucking annoying.

There are a few floating rocks, and I've seen one glitch where the water in some bog was totally transparent, but it's far better than Oblivion. Plus the dungeons are all amazing!

This isn't really a glitch, but I hate how the default mouse setup but the action for the right hand on the left button, and vice versa. Talk about stupidly complicated...

And dragons really seem to hate Winterhold for some reason. Can't say I blame them though...

Thats whats been bothering me aswell! Though I hate her for other reasons aswell. But ruining my wedding after she already died was the last straw.

Unremovable quest items with weight. I have 20 pounds of had heads and several pounds of giant toes that will never be able to be removed from my characters inventory because I can't find the quest that they're related to or I have already completed said quest.

A couple of bugs that have made me laugh so far:

I was returning to Whiterun from a quest (on foot, not fast travel), and when I got to the front gate, the tail of Mirmulnir (first dragon you encounter) was sticking out of the door. I had killed the dragon a few days earlier. If I got close enough to the tail, I could interact with it and loot anything that I hadn't picked up when I had initially killed the dragon. When I entered and exited Whiterun a few minutes later, the tail was gone.

Lydia, my NPC follower, suddenly died when she couldn't follow me into a particular section of a Companions quest. I eventually found her lying face down in a stream of water in Whiterun. With Lydia having died, I now have an owned bed in my home that belongs to a dead NPC.

I've also had NPCs follow me into my home, finish the conversation they were having with me, and then leave.

I've seen a lot of enemies attack/walk through doors. Initiate combat with someone and then shut the door between you. Watch it fail.

oh I had this with some innkeeper I killed

Horrid stuff that is, but in a sense it's reality

randomly walking around whiterun only to have a dead dragon randomly land on my head, give me a dragon soul and some decent loot, good thing I was right next to the general store.

also that stupid ring of hircine doesn't let me transform more as a werewolf.. grr
That's because it gives you more transformations randomly. As in, you will be walking along in the market on a bright summer day then suddenly transform into a werewolf for no reason.

Yeah, that happened to me too! I think the AI is just too smart, it figured out I was only marrying NPCs for more meatshields due to me being a cowardly wizard who only uses destruction and conjuration magic. SO it went out and brought the body of lydia to the ceremony as if to say "Fuck you, I know what this is all about!"

Cursed, god-damned memory leak. After about a half hour of playing, when I change areas (ie see a loading screen) my framerate drops precipitously. I am running on ultra and refuse to reduce the settings as the game runs smooth as butter most of the time.

Just getting tired of having to restart every half hour or so.


On a good and incredibly awesome note, however...
The Companions just turned me into a freakin werewolf and gave me wolf armor to wear. Werewolf form is insanely powerful.

Now that is just rude. Being somewhere you are not welcome is one thing, but to ruin someones wedding day is just unacceptable. And what lengths she went to crawl back to your house!! Death means nothing to her privileged arse. The nerve on her... :)

Sounds like someone's been hitting the old Skooma a little too hard lately!

I had one NPC follow me into my house then leave right away.
A guard followed me into my home, proclaimed that I was the Dragonborn and promptly left again! I didn't know whether to feel honoured that he recognised me or slightly violated for his forced entry!

OT:

- Dropped items sometimes get stuck in the air and just stay there floating.
- There were mammoths walking in the sky around Whiterun.
- The Markarth quest "The haunted house" glitched so that I could not continue with it, luckily I had a previous save.
- The horse turns invisible sometimes if there is a wall blocking my view.
- I can't marry Lydia or Ysolda in Witerun, despite wearing the amulet of Mara. Ysolda is supossed to give me a quest before she likes me enough for marriage but I can never get it to trigger. Don't know if this is a glitch or just me doing something wrong!

Also, not a glitch but immersion breaking nonetheless... I was fighting a dragon which found a fort close to Whiterun. It landed inside and started attacking the people there. I managed to take it down and once the men had sheathed their swords and started walking away, I overheard one say: "When are we going to see some action around here?" Needless to say my great victory felt a little anticlimatic after that!

There's a double bed you can sleep in in the Whiterun house.
For me, I'm just crashing quite a bit recently. Seems that it crashes more often once I put the graphics settings up, which kind of sucks.
I opened up my computer and pulled out a handful of dustbunnies-- specifically from the processor heat sink and out of the graphics card circulation system.

Crashing has gone to nearly zero.

A stuck bodyguard, I did go into a cave area to hunt someone down and I could use her help. I could.. if she followed. It took me going out and in again to get her to follow me.

Eh you know with that mount of content, dynamic events and so on I can overlook that.

Except for the mainstory quest "Talk to Alvor" bugged out, not so much.
Though I wonder if the fluctuating difficulty is also a minor bug.
(I.e. the one moment im slaying dragons like a pro, the next moment a wolf looks at me and I instantly die =/ )
I believe the random dragon encounters are scaled to your level while world creatures have their own scaling ranges.

I hit a bug were an NPC was duplicated, with his duplicate two feet to the side of him and clipped into the floor up to his torso.

I also have the dragon skeleton following me around in Winterhold. I did kill that dragon in town but it keeps spawning in my face when I fast travel there.

And I don't know if this might be a bug but I completed the Whiterun quest where the Redguard mercs are looking for a woman yet the two guys that start the quest are still chilling in the Whiterun entrance yet don't say anything. They look like they were meant to be removed.
I had the skeleton of the first dragon you kill appear on the wreckage of a farmhouse. Since then, though they've all disappeared as they should.

Other than that, and the odd thing that resolved itself within seconds, I haven't had any glitches. Anyway, I've been cautious about completing the main questline. Can someone tell me (simple yes or no answer, no spoilers) if I can still find dragons after the main questline is finished?
