They should have it in the game but dead, in a funny place like "Wurst Troll Evur"

He he you mean like the troll in my signature! That could definitely work.

Kinda what I thought Rivers should swig when I saw the thread...

It'd be hilarious if they put in a "dragon" called leafy that was green. However instead of a REAL dragon it was simply some little kid wearing an (obviously) fake dragon costume and he told you his name was the forum name that said beth never listens to it's players.


Kidn of similar to how WoW put in that WoW "fact checker" character after that video spread of that one guy at blizzcon correcting the developers on their own lore.

No thanks, I'd prefer one called Scales.

swig? Hmmm don't know what you mean!?

My face when you play Skyrim and there is a tavern named Leafy the Dragon

I think it would be hilarious with a subtle reference.

Just to put a cork in the naysayers' mouths.

They could make the name 'leafy' in dragon language and players would have to translate it to get the reference. That way if you are not paying too much attention to the game you will not have your 'immersion' broken. Besides, I bet they already have 'Puff the magic dragon' in the game, and if not they better get crackin' on implementing him!

why some people vote "no"?? :facepalm:

I voted "Yes" just so I can laugh in everyone's "Bethesda used my idea!!" face when it's not included.

Seriously, Todd doesn't need to your help. He's a clever guy.

Because I guess its not a universally loved idea! Still a few more for yes over all.

Thanks for voting.

I vote no out of spite for making this kind of thread.

TAKE THAT!

I tired of trying to muddle through the quoted post in the original post.
I don't want a dragon named Leafy. Dragons need badass names, Leafy doesn't cut it.
Also, people demanding things tends to irritate and put me off, and I am pretty sure that emotion is common.

Because the game needs a hundred other things besides a dragon named Leafy.

Because we know that Bethesda is "listening" to us, it's just most of the time they ignore what they hear, occasionally with good reason, and occasionally without.

If they were to acknowledge this inane idea, while ignoring other, much more meaningful ideas, it would actually damage their reputation as "listeners" to anyone who has half a brain cell. "Oh hey look, this group of fans has a great idea for such and such a feature that existed in previous games/has not been seen in any ES to date. Unfortunately we don't think we can manage that. But look! This group of fans wants a dragon named Leafy because ANOTHER person said that the chances of us including any of their suggestions was as likely as us including such a dragon. Let's do it, gang!"

I would rather have an easter egg called the Dragonheart Inn with a sean connory esque owner.

Bethesda do listen. They've included references to things from these forums in the past. Where do you think M'aiq's fishy stick quote in Oblivion came from?

However, they're not going to take demands for easter eggs that people want in a game. An easter egg is a humorous encounter or an obscure reference to something that people wouldn't expect to find while playing. Demanding that they put something that you want in the game just kills the whole point.

I expect they would listen to your suggestion if it wasnt pointless.

I think that Leafy the Green Dragon is a perfect Easter Egg.
Not pointless.

I want Leafy to breathe flower petals instead of fire.

Beth has done heaps of things like this, just leave them alone. Needy people, they aren't your Mum and Dad. God :flamethrower:

ITT: People don't know what easter eggs are! : )

I think it would be a good line from M'aiq, but nothing more noticeable than that. IMHO, TES is not a series that lends itself well to easter eggs like that, it's too serious. I already trust that Bethesda listens to us, and some of M'aiq's lines from Oblivion prove that already.

I support Leafy the Green Dragon given the story behind it. I imagine it would probably be best implemented by including a book that a child has written about a fantasy dragon friend named Leafy or something to that effect.

+1

I could definitely go for that.

-----------------

sigh and yea, putting Leafy in could very much turn into a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicked_problem later down the road. The second the right person/group finds Leafy... you get "OMG Bethesda... You catered to those idiots by putting in that stupid dragon and totally ignored my weapon swagger idea that would have totally saved your stupid game from hitting the bargain bin forever!!1!!!11!!!! I HATE YOU... HATE YOU... HATE." Though you could argue that there is a big difference between the time and resources on texturing a few words to an inn's sign and some totally awesome play mechanic.

As far as Bethesda listing to "demands" like this... what? I'm kind of lost here. Is this a serious demand or a fun idea? Because I thought it was the later. :facepalm:
