'Skyrim' NPC Gets Kidnapped By Dragonfly In One Of The Greatest Glitches We've Seen

'Skyrim' NPC Gets Kidnapped By Dragonfly In One Of The Greatest Glitches We've Seen

Poor ol' Falion.

You know, there are two types of glitches. The ones that are day, game, or lifetime ruining. Like when your file corrupts or when the game breaks so hard you can't continue. And then you have the hilarious ones that make your gaming experience that much better. We've just seen one of the latter and it's so funny, honestly, this entire article is just so you can see the video too.

Skyrim isn't exactly perfect when it comes to being glitch-free. Sometimes your horse is suddenly at a 90-degree angle on a mountain, or perhaps your body is falling through the map because you stepped on a cobblestone that was having a bad day. There are all sorts of funny things that can happen in the open-world adventure but this might be one of our favourites. An NPC getting kidnapped by a dragonfly.

A video has been posted on the Skyrim subreddit showing a rather unusual situation where an NPC the dragonborn is talking to, gets suddenly stolen by a dragonfly. We're not sure what sort of glitch this is but perhaps under the circumstances, we should be calling it a bug. Ha, get it? Because, you know, a dragonfly is like, a bug? And bug is... yeah okay you get it I'll stop now.


Anyway, it's just pretty amusing and with a game as well-loved yet old as Skyrim, it's rare that we see anything new come from the Bethesda title. After watching the clip I do wonder what happened to poor old Falion. Did he fall off eventually? Did he get to ever see his home again? Who knows but I'll at least give kudos to the dragonfly for its skill in hijacking Skyrim's residents.
