Over the years, players have encountered a plethora of glitches and bugs within Skyrim that range from hilarious to game-breaking. Many of which are still being discovered today. For instance, one user recently encountered a glitch that caused an NPC to start spinning and fly into the sky. However, one of the more recent glitches involves one of the most iconic followers that Skyrim has to offer.

Over on Reddit, a user named SlavCevap posted a gameplay clip of Lydia talking and following the Dragonborn, except her character model is lying down, assumedly dead. For many fans of Skyrim, watching a dead character model not only talk to the player but follow them around with no actual movement animation is quite humorous, if not a little disturbing, to witness.

It’s odd that so many players have consistently encountered glitches involving Lydia in particular. In addition to this clip and many similar other examples, one Skyrim player posted a clip where Lydia was floating in mid-air, seemingly possessed. It’s fascinating how there haven’t been nearly as many instances of these glitches occurring with other followers. Perhaps players just aren’t using any other followers apart from Lydia or are using no followers at all.

Not to mention that, for whatever reason, Lydia has become a figurehead of Skyrim’s community of fans. There are over 66 followers in Skyrim, and yet, practically everyone remembers Lydia in some capacity. Then again, Lydia is almost always the first follower that players will encounter in-game if they have progressed the main quest line of Skyrim to any given length.

In any case, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for The Elder Scrolls series going forward. After Bethesda revealed The Elder Scrolls 6 back in E3 2018, there have been little to no additional updates regarding the game’s development. It’s likely due to the ongoing development of other projects like Starfield, but with any luck, new information concerning The Elder Scrolls 6 will be revealed in the coming months.

The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
