This is why I don't run this questline as it is insults me as RPG player. This thief even don't care you are Savior of Skyrim/Legions Legate//Stormfagot Fuhrer and you can't order the guards/soldiers from nearest fort to arrest them.
That's
over even oblibion. They made game with better setting, lore and amputated mechanics which is good for me couse they work this time but with quests for Idiots. You can't left no Another Beth game I won't buy... Good for me as I will get AoD instead.

To my ear those songs are grating, to be honest. Not her-- the lyrics. A dilettante wrote them.
The poem about King Olaf (and the stuff on the word-walls), however, were obviously written by someone that really knew what they were doing; they are skilled imitations of Anglo-Saxon alliterative verse, and Bethesda deserves props for it.
The first time I did that encounter I actually got a beheading animation on him, but it happened just as he stabbed her, so I thought you couldn't save her no matter what.

I don't like the songs the girl sung, way too much of that echo-like effect. But to say something on topic, i've bought skyrim and had a blast with it at first but later after i tried some games that are out of my normal comfortzone i just can't go back, it's way too bland.

I thought the song that becomes available after you kill Alduin was the best one. Even if that isn't saying much.
The pauses between the lines are just retarded though, and I'm damn sure it wasn't supposed to be like that, they just fucked something up, as usual.

I think their dialogue system cannot display lines longer than X characters/words. Which means they also don't record one large voice file for a dialogue, but many small ones. (Like, a char has text of 20 lines, but can only say 5 at once; so they cut it into snippets of 4 different recordings)
This leads to unnatural pauses within dialogues.

I thought the best and most fitting song for Skyrim was done by those BRO team retards. :

Oh, wow, Bethesda. Some girl on youtube did a much better job that whoever you hired for your multi-milion $ production. Great job
When a game sells 10 mill this is to be expected besides moders have been one upping Beth and just about every other PC dev for a couple decades.

Apparently Beth sent a copy of Oblivion to Max Von Sydow to get him on board for Skyrim, but he had just bought Daggerfall off GOG and struggled through Privateer's Hold, so he knew Oblivion was shit. They promised him a load of cash, so he did the voice and the ads for Skyrim anyway, but he trolled Beth viciously throughout by inventing his own dialogs for Esbern.
This video shows how he thought the old Blade should be portrayed in his first meeting with the Dragonborn:

It gives a pretty big increase in fps in CPU-limited spots (like certain city-scenes).
On average I got a ~40-50% boost under these conditions.
Won't help much if you are GPU-limited, though, and some spots/graphical effects still reduce fps more than one would expect.
I foresee Skyrim being modded into an entirely new game by the Japanese.
