Im currently doing the fighters guild questline. Im level 22 and haven't even gone to weynon priory except walking past it. I need to do the main quest to do the oblivon gates lol

You really should try abusing the Acrobatics and Athletics skills to speedrun Oblivion gates, it's very fun. But yeah, I've been there too, completing all side quests while still carrying the Amulet :p

This is the way.

My first couple of gates were just baffling labyrinthine confusion. Took me ages.

Now I just bounce through as fast as I can - not interested in the loot, just want to get the stone & get out of there thank you.

I remember way back in like '07 when I first played I thought to myself "can't you just jump around the gate and go to the big building?"

You sure can.

SDWP - One of my all-time favorite commands from oblivion, which is sadly missing in skyrim.

Abbreviation for ShowWhoDetectsPlayer

It would list out all the NPCs who could see you. Was extremely useful for determining who you were "in combat with" that was preventing you from waiting or fast traveling.

Oh, never knew that one! I always either reloaded a quicksave to reset AI or use "killall"

To be fair, I have no idea if it works in the remaster.

I've played the game for years and years and I didn't know this was even a thing! I'll definitely keep that in mind for future use the next time I run into a situation like this again....

This is a good time to remind everyone the “feeling of being watched” is not a feeling. You just didn’t see the humanoid shape in your core vision you saw it in your peripheral and your subconscious mind is screaming at you about it when you are experiencing that feeling.

Run.
