Todd Howard's wife cheats on him.

    I haven't looked to see if anyone posted this yet but I have to share it. 

    Todd: “I had decided to marry this one woman who was my friend,” Howard begins. “I forgot that I had done this Radiant quest for this other guy, who turns out he had liked her…”


    Despite a bright start, Howard’s new virtual marriage wasn’t an entirely happy one. “When you get married, you can decide where you live – if you own a house, your spouse can move in with you, or you can move in with them,” says Howard. “So I had owned a house in the city of Whiterun, and asked her, ‘OK we should live there.’ I went there, and she hadn’t arrived yet, so I decided to wait – I slept.”

    Despite being sound asleep in his own home, an interloper arrived. “Then she showed up, and I turned around and she was standing there, I saw another door open to another bedroom and the other guy walked out!” says Howard. “If you make him like her, he then visits her every day, and doesn’t care if she’s married.”

    “It’s my wedding night, guy walks out of the bedroom!”

    LOL oh this will make things very interesting. I really like how your spouse will be able to adventure with you. Will make for very good connections and will cause you to want to protect them even more.

    I saw the headline and thought, wow this is totally inappropriate for this website.  Hilarious story though and it gives me hope that the Radiant AI will be much improved over Oblivion's offering.
