I'm playing Skyrim - yes, yes, I know it came out years ago - and I'm quite enjoying it (though it seems to have more bugs than Oblivion did) but one thing is disturbing me slightly.
Picture it: You are in a multilevel crypt that has lain unexplored for a thousand years. It's full of treasure, Draugr Deathlords, traps, and doors that are barred from the other side, or need a key to open. Needless to say, the only key is held by the biggest baddy in the dungeon...
So ... who the elephant is mooching round there every couple of hours and changing the damn candles?

Huh...I was assuming the dread pirate Roberts

Well, we will have to judge dread then ...

|
Please, anything but judge dread...that was painful enough the first time around

It can get worse, should I mention Steven Seagal ?

Servant Draugrs. They go on doing what they did when they were alive.
Or you failed to notice the permanent power "fiat lux: ignites any candle or oil lamp in a 1000 miles radius from you".
As for the bugs, if you're on PC I recoomend you the Unofficial Skyrim Patch from nexusmods. It really does help.

I think the candles have LED lights in them

They have Daylight cast on them and Permanency affixed. It's only a measly 500 XP cost, that would explain the low level Draugrs... bullied by their overlords into giving up their hard earned XP to light up those candles.

If you were a true son of Skyrim, you would know that doing this is the punishment for Jagar Tharn, archtraitor to the Empire.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Ah, the new trend is RDR2. In this one, I think either someone is _really_ replacing the candles, or it is indeed dark after some hours.
On the other side, I do not think you can play it on your Amstrad 1640.

You don't think they just sit around waiting for idiots to stroll into the dungeon do you. They have all sorts of hobbies - Candle making, cobweb weaving, creative wall destruction (to get that distressed decaying look), etc. It takes a lot of hard work to make that place look like a crypt - you should have seen it when they bought it - all cheery and bright and perfect looking - ughh!

Getting spam in Korean: 당신은 나를 알지 못할 수도 있습니다. 왜이 전자 메일을 받는지 궁금합니다. 맞습니까?... I suspect it is someone saying they have hacked my email, since I've gotten about one a day from like-minded individuals, saying they have hacked my computer, since their return email address matches my personal address. But because I haven't ran it through Google translate, I'm unsure. And since I don't have a webcam on my computer (except when I want to), I'm certain they are shitting me.

Google translate says: Quote: You may not know me. I wonder why I get this e-mail. Is that correct
It's probably from 김정은

Don't click any links.
Best case scenarios: they pillage your bank account or they fry your computer.
Worst case scenario: it's a link to K-pop

most I've had recently come straight out and ask for money.
impressed at their ability though, they have me on my webcam (long ago in a box in the store room), is that using this IOT thing I keep hearing about?
cheap though, they only ask for bits of coins... if it wasn't for the lack of a physical mail address I'd send them a whole 5c piece just to see this recording they have of me.
