Skyrimis filled with numerous NPCs that players can get attached to or feel a certain way about. Some find Lydia annoying, while others enjoy how she helps them carry their burdens. Part of interactions like these makeSkyrimfeel much more realistic, but if there is one NPC that elicits the same response from a decent chunk of the fanbase, it’s Nazeem.
Skyrimplayers hate Nazeem, generally speaking, because he’s a pompous, self-righteous narcissist. Nazeem will talk down to everyone he meets, including the Dragonborn. He implies the Dragonborn isn’t important enough for the Cloud District of Whiterun, that he’s so important because he advises Jarl Balgruuf (despite NEVER being seen with him), runs a successful business with his farm, and so on. The bottom line is that he boasts himself as someone super important to the Dragonborn, to various NPCs, and even to his wife who also hates him, but according to one particularSkyrimquest, Nazeem isn’t important whatsoever (not that everyone didn’t already know that).

Redditor Worship-The-Pies recently shared an image of one of theirSkyrimquests, specifically a radiant quest players receive from Feran Sandri whensiding with the Vampires in Dawnguard. To turn the public opinion against the latter, players are supposed to wear a full set ofSkyrim’s Dawnguard armor and murder someone in one of the game’s many holds. It can be anyone, but there is an optional objective to make sure it is a high-profile victim. Well, Worship-The-Pies was inWhiterunand, according to Nazeem, no one is more important or more high-profile in all of Whiterun, so Worship-The-Pies murdered him.
Worship-The-Pies failed the optional objective in thisSkyrimquest, which reads as some real shade thrown at Nazeem. Of course, Worship-The-Pies and everyone likely expected this outcome, but to see such a passing roast of Nazeem by the very game itself easily brings a smile to everyone’s face. The game doesn’t have feelings, of course, but it definitely seems likeSkyrimhates Nazeem too.
Indeed,Skyrimplayers have tortured, killed, and otherwise dealt with Nazeem in various ways since the game’s launch. Players have used mods to knock his head clean off his body, have stolenNazeem’s soul through an enchanted sword, and have otherwise harassed him in equal response (equal being up for interpretation) the same way he does them. Now, they have the validation that the game feels the same way.
Skyrimis available on all major platforms.
