I'd say each race has its own outlook.

I see Dunmer & Orcs hating it.

That's bull and you know it. Not adding spears/medium armor etc was a design choice. Marriage had nothing to do with it.

It's very clear that most people on this forum has no idea how creating a game actually works. It's not just sitting down putting together everything you can as quickly as possible. There are things you cut out because of limitations etc. Spears and marriage are two completely unrelated things. If they'd chosen not to implement marriage they still wouldn't have implemented spears because they'd already chosen not to.

Same six pregnancy? O.o

Thats werid...

I'll stick to the necro mods thank you.

Such is the way of the TES Modding Community.

I see there being alot of mods for this, probably even more for companions in the older games.

I wonder if we'll be able to marry anyone in the game or only select characters like companions in Fallout?
If so that'd leave very few choices me thinks.
What do you guys think?

I'm sure the devs have thought a lot about this feature and tested it quite a bit before deciding to confirm it today.

There must be dialogue options to flirt with NPCs, otherwise, how would you get to the point of marriage.

if so, it seems logical that there will be opportunities to continue flirting with NPCs after you are married, otherwise, it would seem quite arbitrary to suddenly cut off all those dialogue options you had before you were married. If you can be a "wanted criminal" in one Hold and a "Who's That?" in another Hold, how would NPCs in another Hold possibly know you are already married?

It also seems that there should be some repercussions if it is possible for your spouse to learn that you have been unfaithful or flirted with another NPC.

And if you can get married, it would be quite odd if there were no way to get "un-married" (i.e., divorced).

Orcs, maybe. Dunmer? NO WAY. Their gods regularly had crazy, same-six, transgender orgies; Vivec had a ton of kids with a male Daedra prince; and they have an elite force of warriors who are also Vivec's lovers (which is both strait and homosixual anyway you look at it, since Vivec is both male and female).

Or Murder

I don't get why people complain about this. It's just another option to immerse yourself in the game even further. Even though I don't think I'm going to choose the option, but it's great to have the option :thumbsup:

I rather have specific NPC's than the Fable-esque, "You look alright I choose you." with any NPC in the world. If you can romance any NPC then your just going to get characters with limited personality and no longevity to them. If you can only romance certain NPC's who have had some decent personality developed for them with actual benefits then it could work.

Do you think we'll see distince personalities between lets say two diffrent nord women if you married them?

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I.. meh. Don't know. :shrug:

That was the most gross piece of lore information I had in a while.

I don't take people seriously when they tell me what I know and what I don't know.

Umm what are you trying to express with that statement?

I wonder if beast races can romance non-best races.

They thought they were watching Jerry Springer.

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES IN A REGION OF SKYRIM SOON.

1. There are children in the Game
2. You can have a Spouse

Maybe we'll be able to have children then?
If not, probably a MOD will do it well, since children are already designed and the whole marriage thing is also already done.

Probably the fact that you us information about your sixual tastes when we did not ask for it.

[high fives Lady N]

And this is why Vivec is the only man ... woman ... immortal for me.

So naughty even the aforementioned gay-hermaphrodite-orgy-temple banned it on grounds of indecency :foodndrink:

Fun fact: only some of the Khajiit variants have that...adaptation. Most do not.


Mind-reading, world-bending, CHIM powers only sweeten the deal :hubbahubba:

Well, that was quite a... surprising announcement by Bethesda.


http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Last_Scabbard_of_Akrash Lots of xenophobia, race-hate etc. though .


I really, really hope that marriage is the conclusion (or significant highlight) of properly fleshed out romance side quests. Given the way it was bracketed with generic friendship, though... I really fear they've made it a "you killed the pigs that were eating my potatoes, given me a nice sword an told me I have a great personality - let's get married!" sort of deal .


Husband: Make me my dinner!
Wife: No! Get your own! I've had a really hard day, and...
Husband hits wife.
Wife Dragon Shouts husband through a wall.
Guards run up, look at wreckage, look at wife through hole in wall... walk away quickly.


I wouldn't put it that strongly, it's obviously very popular with a lot of people and gives a nice extra option for those who want it. But unless it's connected with some reasonable amount of questing, and NPCs with well written and detailed characters... then I suspect I'll be giving it a miss.

Nice way not to answer what I said. Well done.
