Containing perhaps the most entertaining bug fix listing I’ve seen since they started fixing bugs, the Skyrim 1.2 update handles a handful of annoying (and entertaining) little bugs, while taking care of some performance and functionality fixes at the same time.
That’s right, no more dead wedding guests, no more soulless dragons, and PC players reluctant to hook a game pad to their machine finally have the ability to hit escape to exit menus.
Let’s look at the full list of fixes and updates.
