why do you want to play a game where you wash clothes and trim your toenails??? go do it in real life. there, roleplaying taken care of for the OP.

please oh please someone lock this before the carnage continues.

I know, just look at your orcs rockin mohawk, looking good while killing is important and more amazing than just killing. Perhaps after the feet, clothes washing, we could get hair care in. A DLC to add a barber shop where you can make your own hair cuts and sell them online for a profit. PERFECT DLC EVER!

Edit
YES! A developer is looking here, to seriously evaluate my suggestion.

I think there should be a toenail clipper for all the materials (just like armor, glass, daedric, ebony, dwemer, steel.)

Yes! And how good your hygiene is, can reflect how much people like you when you talk to them!

Thats a great way to make up for the removal of the personality attribute.

this

imagine the damage if you clip some skin by mistake

A giant mud crab that knows about good hygiene. Amazing good crab sir. That must be a miracle you keep so clean with all of that sand, but above all others (so far) you espouse the beliefs and ideals of clean feet better than even myself. Our numbers are quickly growing, none will be able to stop us.

Edit
Excellent again Emberoth, this could replace that as a stat. Leveling up your feet cleansing skill.

This thread is epic, and I'm in it !!

don't forget the 'rusty' toenail clipper. worst one of all. give you a nasty infection. :rofl:

This joke got old fast. We get it. You don't want a hardcoe mode.

Given to you by the god of feet hygiene (the great toe in the sky). He wants you to slay enemies with it. While were at it we can shake up the lore, add a new god. Tons of new items and quests.

Edit
I am a greater espouser of the hardcoe mode. Check my previous posts. This is for super hard core people who like to keep clean. A greater hard core mode, for those of us dedicated to having awesome feet. I'm sorry if these ideals we try to share are not for you. You can take a complementary foot soap on the way out (you need it).

Great ideas, OP and others. I am certain that we need minigames for all this.

Eating: point of this minigame is to put the fork with a food in your mouth, from 1st person perspective. If you miss, you take damage. Beware of forks made of "strong" materials, like Ebony or Daedric. And be very afraid of enchanted forks. Only the most powerful adventurers would dare to eat their venison with Daedric Fork of 30 Fire Damage per hit and additional Soul Trap effect, which is handy, because there is a little Black Soul Gem in its handle.

Defecating: basically, you need to drop your feces in the middle of the toilet, and do not miss and make it all dirty. Here gameplay goes first, and realism should be put to the side. Basically camera for this game is located right... there, where you have to drop your excrements. With a crosshair in the centre of the screen, which you must align with your, well, back passage. By the way, real world astronauts do train their orbital potty skills almost exactly so, only with real rectum, but with camera and all that! Fun and profit.

Toenail polishing: it's easy. Your foot is rendered in beautiful 3d and then you have to polish toenail with file, controlled manually. If there are misses, you take damage and probably penalty to speed. Again, beware of enchanted files.

Clothes washing: there are no washing machines outside of some Dwemer ruins in Tamriel, so you'll have to do this manually. With a washboard. This time you won't get any damage, but process is kinda long, and you got to have enough stamina, and you lose it if you make mistakes in minigame. It is easy, though: up and down, up and down. If you svck at it and lose all your stamina, you are losing your consciousness for an hour.

Continue, please. This topic should become... fabulous.

The best part is those people to lazy to keep clean. Finally barter has a use, they have to buy new clothes all the time because they can't keep them clean. Success. We're even balancing the game now.

They should have beauty salons, where you can get this done, just like blacksmiths for armor. If you don't want to level up that skill so much.

Of course, further balancing out barter with another use.

I love this thread, I think it's one of the more serious suggestions for adding realism.

I have it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a new use for alchemy maybe we can mix ingredients to make soap and fabric cleanser and softener.

I know of all the others this makes the most sense from a realism perspective. It also treads into a territory where few game developers go. It's just in poor show for there to be such bad foot hygiene support in a thread like this. If we get enough people we can form that group.

EDIT!
YES! That's thinking with your feet. A whole new use for alchemy. This is the wave of the future Bethesda, you need to listen to the fan base!

If we get a toe infection we may need to amputate our toes also.

Remember to keep your Cuticles tidy!

Tame a dragon to keep your bath warm.
Make soup out of ice.
Have hair stylists in Skyrim back alleys.
Go on a quest for the legendary toe clippers.
Make beauty products using alchemy.

Meh cant think of any more yet

With this we should also see the return of the sload soap.


Should Smithing, make you able to make toenail clippers?

Yea, all too many adventurers befall this. Where do you think all of those adventurer's skeletons scattered all over the world come from? Monsters? But some of them can be found in completely random places for no apparent reason. They are too embarrassed to write any mad ramblings about their death because they forgot something as simple as taking care of the cuticles.

Edit
Yea smithing toenail clippers. Makes sense.

Finally, a good reason for us to need to see our feet!

If I am not mistaken, soap traditionally is being made from various fats, mostly animal fats. So, Alchemy is second part of soap creating — the one with aromas, abrasive diamond dust and all that. But before you are able to enhance your soap, you need to kill various living stuff and bring their corpses to the boiling kettle. It's obvious that Sload Soap, Minotaur Soap and Bosmer Soap are completely different things.

Actually, hair stylists should be in... It's always nice being able to change your hairstyle.
