Well what have you lot seen/heard?

Mine was a bit strange, a merchant who I had reacently bought heaps of stuff off - spells - used this money to buy themselves a horse. The rode it around for a bit (following them was quite a chore) and about 100m out of town they stop, get off and walk back to bed. I come back to find a bandit STEALING the horse, later following the bandit he is attacked by a guard patrolling the roads for stealing the horse.

Now it seems that one major stuff-up resulted in some good AI happening. It was funny to watch somebody steal a horse then get busted for it :)

Well, i myself got busted for stealing a horse, and ended up in jail for 30 days, because i didn't have the cash to pay the fine. Once i got out, the horse was waiting for me at the citygate, and ever since then the guards don't think of it as a stolen horse anymore, so legally it's mine now. :D

I saw a man once sneaking up on woman sitting on bench and tried to pick pocket her. She noticed him, shouted for the guards, and started fighting him. Then a guard came and started fighting him, but he never managed to hit him, and the woman ran back in to the city through the gates with the thief and guard following her.
When I follow them inside I find the thief and woman talking about how the fighter guild have started recruiting again, while the guard just stands and listens. :skeptic:

Anyway, the radiant AI is quite amazing! It really makes the world of Cyrodiil come alive.
