Courier: C'mon Boone, I need you. I mean the war was twenty years ago. Boone: In my mind, there's a war still going on. Courier: Alright, what happened, Boone? What is it that you can't get over? Boone: Bitter Springs, 2260. I was the best cook the NCR ever saw, slinging hash for the Fighting 103rd. As we marched north, our supply lines were getting thin. One day a couple of GIs found a crate, inside were six hundred pounds of prime brahmin steak. At least it once was prime. The use by date was three weeks past, but I was arrogant, I was brash, I thought if I used just the right spices, cooked it long enough... Courier: What happened? Boone: I went too far. I over seasoned it. Men were keeling over all around me. I can still hear the retching, the screaming. I sent sixteen of my own men to the latrines that night. They were just boys. Courier: Boone, you were a boy too. And it was war. It was a crazy time for everyone. Boone: Tell that to Bobby Colby. All that kid wanted to do was go home. Well he went home alright, with a crater in his colon the size of a cutlet. Had to sit him on a cork the eighteen-hour vertibird flight home! Courier: Boone, now listen to me. Two hundred Novac singles need you. This is your chance to make it all right again. Boone: No. No, I'll never cook again! Never! Now get out of my house!! Get out. Go.

To demonstrate that the hole is big enough "for a man to fit in", the Courier lays down in the hole. Benny shoots him in the face and two rough trade individuals bury him. Later, Victor digs up the Courier, who proceeds to frantically search for something. COURIER: "Aw! He said he wouldn't take the chip!" VICTOR: "What happened?!" COURIER: "This guy said this hole wasn't big enough for a man to fit in!" VICTOR: "So you got in willingly?" COURIER: "I kept saying, 'I've fit into plenty of holes; I'm sure I can squeeze into this one!' Man, if I ever find that guy again, you know what I'm going to do?" VICTOR: "BEND OVER?" The Courier immediately gets angry and defensive and Googles "Confirmed Bachelor".

With the return to a more Morrowindy armor layering style, I hope Bethesda also brings back levitation ("atomic levitation") and spellcrafting ("radiationcrafting").

Having just started Morrowind I appreciate that I can wear a mess of different armors but still swag myself out by covering myself with an Extravagant Robe, along with my weird Troll Skull it really ties my look together.

Re: levitation you could just limit the ability to X-meters above the ground to prevent people from bypassing poo poo. Levitation is also technically canon for Fallout as you could get some sort of anti-grav system for your car (e: in FO2). Doubt we'll be revisiting that here though.

Oh players can fly at high levels? Well then maybe you should design some dungeon to take that into account! Instead of removing it they should have doubled down on it. Wizards flying around in the sky, guards with bows/flight magic, vertical mazes or whatnot that can't be done without levitation, etc.

They should have had Alduin be some crazy dragon priest with his dragon and you can fight each other on the backs of your respective dragons and crib from Dance of Dragons where one dude jumps off his dragon and impales the other dude before landing on the other dragon.
