NoNewTaleToTell: ...you're not wrong.  
 I'm trying to get a quest in Solitude to unlock but it's just not doing it, in my most recent play session I went from Solitude to Markarth after turning in a quest in Solitude, all in hopes of triggering that other one. Apparently you have to be in a walled city to get a courier to pop up with a letter than unlocks the quest. Oh, and the quest I had turned in involved me going from Solitude to just outside of Whiterun. Fun times.  
 How are things in your gaming life? 
  Oh, Bethesda...how you maintain your popularity with a neverending fiasco clusterfuck parade of bug-riddled brokenness, I'll never know.  
 Think I burned out a bit from the effort needed to not throw my controller through the monitor during Bloodrayne Betrayal. Fuck that game. 
 Other than that, it's shaking my head and laughing as I sit on close to 1,450 games, yet still wonder what's coming up on sale in a few hours. 
 Think I'll probably end up grabbing Borderlands: The Pre Sequel, Starward Rogue, Pony Island, Darkmaus and Duke Nukem Forever before the weekend rental sale ends.
