Hunters Not Bandits

That NPC’s use the same taunts when hunting & fighting animals

as bandits do to you.

Version 3 and later fixes Skyrims “amazing” dialogues,

where enemies could say things like:

“Can I help you?”, right after they kill you.

Version 4 and later fixes the intro scene

to the Psijic order in Saarthal, so it

always plays out correctly.

Hunters and other NPC’s will now behave in a way you would expect them to.

They will take out their bow silently without going Huh, what was that?

or scream This is your last mistake! followed by Skyrim is for the Nords!

Approaching their prey in a way that doesn’t alert the whole world to their presence.

This is what the mod aims to fix, this is the reason for its name.

Dialogue which adds a bit of flavor while still making sense is left alone.

I don’t want to remove too much and turn them into lifeless robots.

Speaking of which, characters will only tone down their chattiness when it comes to animals. They will be just as verbal when dealing with others as they where before.

At least that’s what I thought.

During the development of Jay Serpa’s wonderful College of Winterhold - Quest Expansion

I was reminded of an old Skyrim bug which has never been fixed. One which happens to be located among the dialogues that Hunters Not Bandits deals with.

What happens if you stand on top of the spot where the psijic monk Nerien spawns in Saarthal is that he may for a brief moment use his regular High Elf lines before the game cinematically fades the lights and the scene kicks in.

It doesn’t help that the regular High Elf lines have a very different pitch and tone from the lines in the scene, warning the player of things to come.

You can get gems like:

Those are College of Winterhold robes, aren’t they?
