Drugs and Drug Effects in Skyrim

Post » Sun Aug 29, 2010 2:06 am

I personally was very big fan of oblivion. I owned the xbox 360 version. I was looking online to see if there was any way to get drugs in oblivion and i learned it was only for pc. I had to get it because i think any game with Drugs is very fun and makes the game much better. It makes the game very realistic, evan for the people who hate drugs and deny everything about it, it would still fit them if you added a drug effect to the xbox version to the game. Please read my ideas on how this game could be drastically improved with a drug mod included.

1. Very realistic in a realistic game. It makes the game much realer, you could add drug dealers through out the game and you could go and buy from them. It can be illegal and could be arrested if caught doing them in public right by a guard. Also it just doesn't make sense how a whole world of food, chemicals, and potions and none of them dont make you under the influence.

2. Add characters who are drug addicts (like skooma addicts) but you know why they actully love there drug. Makes the game much more interesting and the storyline much better.

3. Many People love the craziness drug effects have to offer in games. I myself look online for games that you can do drugs in. thus making more people buy the game.

4. use it to get back at enemies or other random people. i mean like by lacing drugs in peoples food and they will start feeling the effects, then you could steal, kill, do whatever while there trippin.

5. It makes you have something to do while waiting for something in the game.

6. Its just plainly fun/funny and a new experience for fans of oblivion

And im sure you can find many other reasons but also please read my ideas if any Skyrim creators do read this and decided to put this in the game.

1. Please add drugs that actually make you hallucinate. Like random ghost, people walking through walls, or any trippy hallucinations i guess.

2. Drugs do not need to be called LSD, Shrooms, marijuana. They could have your skyrim names

3. You should have a wide variety of drugs and different effects.

4. Evan if you do not decide to have drugs/effects in Skyrim, you should AT LEAST be able to get drunk off alcohol. I was drinking all kinds of alcohol in oblivion before i realized it didn't get you drunk... I was disappointed.

5. You should find a right time limit (i say 3 minutes would be good) or get like a drug that would sober you up just incase you dont want to be high at the moment

So please Elder Scroll Members, Try to get this thread widely Know or make your own thread on how you think there should be drugs in skyrim! And just maybe we will be able to get our wish and be able to see it ourself when we get this game!

DO NOT TALK ABOUT ANY REAL LIFE DRUG TALK IN THIS THREAD!!

I want drugs, tons of drugs. Drugs and alchohol are very crucial to my narrative.

People should recognize if your high or drunk too.

Something Similar to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5ZEBsjjwto would be fine. Perhaps even screen animations like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RMQIBUOk4k.

Always thought it a shame that Skooma was a simple debuff system. An addiction system with actual affects would be more entertaining to me.

We had a thread like this last week which was closed because people we're making comments about their personal lives. Lets try to keep that out of the thread. :)

I never used stuff like skooma or moon sugar mainly because I knew they would drain my attributes and there were simply not enough positive things about using them. I think it would be kind of cool to implement wacky shaders that alter the visuals on screen.

It'd make everyone try skooma for curiosities sake.

Yes I would like this a I just got a mod for oblivion where i can grow weed and smoke it. Now i know Bethesda would never make that but a drunken effect would be good for a roleplay imo.

Feldew in the Shivering Isles is a drug with in-game addiction effects. I think it worked quite well, as even on my roleplay character, the mechanics made me have to want to use more. Vampirism could be similar in concept with blood; sun damage may really make the player consider drinking blood.

It'd be really interesting to see what they do with Moon Sugar in the future of Elsweyr.

I don't think I would really care if they were in the game.It would probably be counter productive for Bethesda because of the flak they'd receive if any of the drugs were similar to real life ones.

I don't think they got any flack from the drugs in New Vegas or FO3.

I like how they were handled in FNV - I ended up playing most of the game constantly drinking alcohol (thanks to Cass's Whiskey Rose perk) and usually addicted to something or other

I also like the way that The Witcher incorporated drinking and inebriation into a couple of the quests - really funny execution of the quest where you get hammered and then have to go home to hear a lecture from either Shani or Triss about how you should stop drinking and staying out late....while your vision is still so blurry you can barely see who it is that's yelling at you.

I saw some mod at my friends house called "The Skooma Affect" or something. He drank it, and whited out. When it came back, everything was all flashy techno colors and playing the Mortal Kombat theme without the "MORTAL KOMBAT!!!" scream every five seconds. Everyone was dancing, and then when the effect ended it whited out and his character was lieing on the ground, where he originally drank it. Then he was arrested.

I'd like to see Skooma and Moonsugar return, but nothing else. (obviously alcohol will be in). And yeah, they should give skooma and moon sugar have stronger, more realistic effects. I've always assumed that moon sugar was basically cocaine.

Something like the visual drug effects mod for New Vegas would be awesome. If you have NV check it out.

YES TO DRUGS wins by a landslide.

Romance is controversial.

I find this humorous. (Voted don't mind btw)

In all truth, I play my character like I would if I were there. I think drugs and alchol in the game make it a lot more real, and nothing it better then the village drunk falling in a lake :) But I dont really play around in em, besides, I hate negative side effects on me!

It's not going to be implemented in the game now if it hasn't already.

I want to be able to take moon sugar or skooma and see crazy stuff, similar to things you'd see with the wild wasteland perk in fallout. But only be able to see the things for as long as the drug was in effect.

i would actually like to see them reinvent skooma and moon sugar. rework its positive and negative effects. and make skooma more addictive.
