I tried the turning into human form -- but didn't help -- died multiple ways -- the most LAME way was when I fell into the cave -- KILLED Zagan, but then couldn't get out -- since you cannot turn into a dragon when you are in the cave unless you are already at the top of the cave.
You Can't even turn into a dragon if you go back to the same place where you start that whole scene where the game automatically turns you into a dragon!!! You just get the message "not enough room to turn into a dragon"....
That's the most fracked up work I've seen in a long time ... you have this whole cave above you, and whenever you turn, you are placed about 10 feet above the ground -- so there's no reason to not let you turn -- but the WORST part of that was that is that the GAME can forcibly turn you into a dragon at that point, but if you want to do it voluntarily, you can't. That's just entirely Fracked up.
