    Eight months after its release, it looks like there's at least one person who hasn't mastered Skyrim yet. His name is Conan O'Brien, but in the world of Tamriel, he's a member of the feline Khajiit race who goes by the name "Mr. Buttons." Part of Conan's "Clueless Gamer" series, this video is worth watching just for how terrible he is. Picking a fight with a random passerby, he gets killed. Scaring a few chickens, he gets killed. He very nearly gets killed by a woolly mammoth, only to have his friend step in and save the day. There's a lot of faux-helplessness here, but it's amusing to get an outsider's take on the Skyrim universe.
