Skyrim: Dragon. It’s a Crash, Crash, Crash

I finished off the main bits of the Skyrim: Dragonborn expansion. By far, the biggest glitch comes during the last battle with Miirak. If you hit him too hard, he’ll straight-up become invincible and untouchable, and neither will he attack you. You spend the entire time circling each other, not able to interact. I tried using a variety of Shouts to try and fuck him out of his invincibility spell, but nothing worked besides resetting. Reading up online, a lot of other people seem to be having the same problem.

I’ve hard-locked my 360 a few times while playing. Now that I’m able to use Dead Thrall and summon two undead to my side, I’m melting the game. I don’t even know what to do with half these dead bodies. I leave them in my houses most of the time. Villagers become disturbed when you show up with a zombie on their doorstep, but leaving a dead body in the street doesn’t affect them much. I tossed one named NPC called Soren down a fiery pit as a sacrifice for one quest. I didn’t feel too bad as he was dead when I found him. There was a non-quest related boss fight with Horker named Lord Tusk related to his dead-ass. It seemed better than leaving his body and a wave-swept rocks. At first I thought I was suppose to sacrifice one of my companions, or the quest giver, but they wouldn’t stand on the grate. I think the key is having to Shout a dead Drugur onto the plate, but my Dead Thrall worked fine.

Strangely, after killing her father, Freda was fine with following me around again, as long as I killed Miirak, who wasn’t really responsible. I basically teamed up with her dad’s killer, and she knows it. She’s freaky.
