Hell yeah (I'm assuming you mean like in Fallout)! Not only is it useful for recovering health, but it's totally badass. Plus, it can be great for roleplaying if there's no food around and you're stuck in the wilderness with some bandits you just killed. Either that, or you're just a serial killer that enjoys eating people. :P

Maybe it should only be available for Bosmer. The Lore clearly states that Bosmer can be cannabilistic towards their fallen enemies.

I think cannibalism should be reserved for games like Fallout 3, or at least a game set in Valenwood as Wood Elves actually do practise cannibalism.

Sure why not. Races like Bosmer do it. And it would be fitting for The Dark Brotherhood or a similar guild.

I think Cannibalism should most definitely be in, just because it can make players who play as Bosmers, more immersed and it adds to that do whatever the hell you want aspect of the Elder Scrolls that has been in the series since the beginning.

Because I see the Bosmer's cannibalism as more of a local custom. It's something they practise religously in their homeland because they are not allowed to touch the plants that grow their and can only eat meat from animals and each other. But in other provinces I'm pretty sure cannibalism is extremly taboo and illegal so no Bosmer would practice it outside their homeland, especially because they have no reason to do it since it's OK for them to eat the plants that grow outside their forests.

Also cannibalism doesn't really seem to mix well with the medieval fantasy setting of an RPG game, at least not from a player character's perspective. It fits more with the Fallout series because it's set in an apocalyptic world where food and water is scarce and humans are having to eat unsual sources of food just to stay alive.

If people really want cannibalism in Skyrim then I'm not going to argue with their opinion, but I personally don't think it would fit the game. :shrug:

What do you mean? The bosmer are all cannibals. At least the ones in Valenwood, but I'm sure there are those who are still practice the Green Pact outside Valenwood.

I say it should be inherent in all bosmer, perks for everyone else.

Sure why not. Races like Bosmer do it. And it would be fitting for The Dark Brotherhood or a similar guild.

Why the [censored] would the Dark Brotherhood leave such evidence behind? The DB isn't evil stupid, they're just assassins! I swear, OB has turned people's heads into mush. Ugh...

Thread is weird and scary.

But I would have nothing against cannibalism, if implemented right. And not in some disgusting, sadistic, "player eating the local count"-kind of way. :D

Yes.
If they bring back the Adoring Fan or a character like them I shall serve them in a 3 course meal.

In a what context? A disturbing cannibal-related sidequest? Sure.

The player having the option to eat people...if you're a bosmer then ok.
