I'd really like to make a rotund character, a little earlier though i read a post somewhere on these boards saying that the character creation only really allowed for variations between skinny and muscly, what do you think am i going to be able to make a fat barman that can sneak like Santa and is a lethal shot with a bow?

Man I hope so! I probably won't make a character like this but just being able to do it in a TES game would be awesome!

Man I hope so!

Wtf? I just about to say those exact words... :sadvaultboy:

we've heard from gameinformer that you can customize things like the size of your muscles and things, but that was a long time ago, and we haven't heard anything official about it since. Even after Todd's been asked about character customization and generation, he still doesn't mention anything about it.

If you get fat enough, you should unlock a belly flop ability in combat, and an equivalent to "mister sandman" where you can sit on sleeping victims and kill them.

I think I saw some people of different girths in the G4 demo so I hope so!

Great minds and all that. Any way, I wonder if it will just be a selectable body shape or will it have a Soul Calibur 4 esque slider to determine size and muscularity. Can't wait to find out! Seriously, I will probably spend hours screwing around with the character editor!

This certainly would make for some hilarious youtube videos, "FUS RO DOOOOOOughnuts...!"

I believe only the horses can be fat in Skyrim.

Haha, we've only seen one, maybe two horse models! All of them may not be fat!

Im sure the dragons will appreciate it. Fat always adds good flavor to a meal. Although maybe they wont be able to attack you as they will be laughing too hard seeing a fat guy pouring out of his armor trying to run away from them.

Hopefully.

On the other hand, carrots are zero weight, as are all food, so I doubt we can gain weight.

DAMN YOU BETHESDA. NOT GOING TO BUY NOW WYAHHHHHH

If this isn't in, Bethesda have done something wrong. Really :spotted owl:

If you consider 'fat' to be huge muscles then yes, yes you can.

On the topic of customization, when skyrim got featured on the E3 day 2 live show today the interviewer was asking todd about character customisation and he replied along the lines of you can choose body type, war paints, scars, tattoo's, muscle etc. basically anything that makes you look badass.

Fat character on a fat pony = epic.

no wasn't really what i had in mind, i meant fat like girth-wise, i just think it would make the world a little more interesting to see more varied people walking around, i was thinking of making a sort of mad Butterbur from Bree

I don't necessarily think that everyone should be ripped, but I really don't think a character could do what you'll be doing and remain fat for very long. What with all the travel, running, combat, etc.

» Sat Jun 11, 2011 5:09 am

Haha I've never thought about this before. If it's possible to make 'larger' characters, then I may play one. Perhaps I'll try making fat merchant.

meh it wasn't overly fat, the ones in Oblivion were WAY to skinny
