Need something? is a merchant greeting from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, released by Bethesda in 2011. Shopkeepers say it when players interact with them to trade, making it one of the game's most repeated everyday lines. Clips of Skyrim dialogue spread through gameplay videos, streams and soundboards, where short NPC phrases became easy shorthand for role-playing game humour. It remains popular because the line needs no explanation for Skyrim players, while still working as a dry setup for shop, loot and spending jokes in new edits.

A Skyrim merchant asks 'Need something?' when the player starts a trade, a short voice clip reused in gaming videos and memes for shop and trading jokes.
The clip is the brief greeting spoken by a Skyrim merchant when the player opens their shop inventory, delivered in a flat, matter-of-fact tone that sounds more like a routine question than a warm welcome. Lasting just over a second, it captures the familiar rhythm of the game's non-player characters, with a slightly blunt delivery that makes it instantly recognisable to anyone who has spent time trading in towns such as Whiterun or Riften. In videos it lands as a dry punchline, signalling that a transaction is about to begin or that a character is waiting impatiently for the viewer to decide.
