@Th3 Replicant:
What did i download just now then? You're indeed right, i'm also still at version 1.3.5.0, but the game just gave me an update to download, and i already was on the newest version... weird..
-----------------------------------
In total i encountered 44 bugs of which two are fixed in the last patch... sigh... |

| I secretly hope they fix the "Cornered Rat" quest not been given too, even though it's not on the fix list... |

| Cool. 6 more months and the entire game may actually be playable, not just parts of it. By then there'll probably be a GOTY edition I can pick up. |

@Kenny, I don't think the patch is live yet. I'm still looking at version 1.3.5.0 on my xbox.
Quote form Bethesda blog:
"Skyrim’s 1.4 update is currently undergoing testing on all three platforms. The update will include fixes and optimizations for the most common issues people have been reporting (see below). We’re hoping to finalize this next week, and submit it to the console manufacturers for certification, as well as release on PC." |

| And yet still no fix for the Waking Nightmare quest, possibly one of the more glitched quests from what I've read in the forums. Oh well, I have my thousand on this game already so now I'm just patiently waiting for DLC. |

I completed this game with 2 very small issues and all I had to do was leave the area and return  |
If your here, then who did I kill? |

Lycanthropy sucks, man. Keep away from that. |
I have not yet begun to procrastinate! |

| I wish they would fix quest items staying in your inventory after the quest is finished... I'm so tired of being constantly weighed down by crap I can't drop. |

I'll wait until the first DLC drops before I dive in. One playthrough sated my TES needs for the moment.
What we really need is a Fallout 4 announcement. |
