Marriage, but no brothel?

regardless this is a pg 13 boared and brotherls are M rated topic

Brothels are M rated? I discovered what they are from my 7th grade geography teacher telling us about giving directions by using the example of stumbling out of a bar and getting to a brothel. I his defense he did leave us to look the word up for ourselves.

And if it makes the OP feel better, just throw some gold on the bedside table when you leave.

plz this isn't bioware game :brokencomputer:

And your point being what? Fallout New Vegas had them and thats a Bethesda published game. Its all about being immersed in a realistic world. A brothel in a setting with dungeons and dragons, thieves, knights and brigands is a natural fit.

This is only a game!! I play it for killing people, stealing and training my abilities as a gamer. And for, of course, explore the game at MAX.

Do you really want a brothel? GO FOR IT in real life, dude. No, seriously. It's logical. What's the fun about it in the games? Or even what's the point?

Want to love? Love truely someone, not a bunch-o'-bytes. For shor's bones!



Well that's great, and I'm very happy you are enjoying the game.
But we all play for different reasons, which is the beauty of Elder Scrolls. Some want the challenge of becoming the best fighter out there, some to discover the story, others to wander around and immerse themselves in this living, breathing world, and so forth. Some want it all, like me.

I see no issue in being able to keep relationships like in Dragon Age, whether for six, love, friendship, or just a helping hand in battle. It provides more attachment to your character, and makes it extra rewarding to keep playing once you've 'beaten the game'.

Marriage, working as a lumberjack, decorating your home, collecting books are all activities that aren't necessary for the game to be the action-adventure you obviously prefer, and yet they all make it better simply by being possible. The world feels more alive, and because of that, it feels more worthwhile and entertaining to go out and kill people, save the world, and so forth.

And for the record I do have a girlfriend whom I love very much, anyone should be able to figure out this issue is all about immersion, not about finding a substitute for real life six. There's porm for that, for those who need it.

A hero who is fighting in a civil war, stopping dragons, evil elves (oh yeah...I said it), ie making the world a safer place...can not be weighted down by having a wife. Especially when the Dark Brotherhood can apparently break into your house and move you cross country while your sleeping. Who knows what they would do to your family? A proper hero should be wenching and [censored] until the world is saved. Then he can settle down, start a family, only to have them killed during the next expansion pack so you have a reason to go out and kill things again.

I was surprised there were no brothels in the game, with this being a medievil themed M rated game it doesn't make much sense.


In a world like this no it doesn't..............

A lot of moral crusaders, who are new to the now-mainstream TES series, in this thread.

"those be damned [censored]s stole all my single septims!"~ random towns person

"So I got a kid's sweet roll back, what's that get me?" random guard

"This one enjoys it"~ random Khajiit

"Honest pay for honest work"~ random farmer

*and with DLC you can join them and pick clean the pockets of all the overly focused Nords!* :hubbahubba:

Am I the only one that finds the idea of a brothel more appealing than marriage? Perhaps its the fact that I've been married, or the idea that in a game there arent any real consequences, but I'd rather not be monogamous...

Ahh from the lips of a man, a brothel, yeh it would fit in but cant we play a game without smut? There is a type in the game, go to Riftin, I wont spoil. I find it bad enough that the gay thing is shoved in our faces to such an extreme, take all the offence you want at that comment Im sure the PCers will have a field day, its your choice if your gay but Im bloody over it be shoved in mine and my childrens faces, just like smut in general in all media. What ever happened to good clean fun? No Im not a prude six plays a big role in our lives, Im just over the 'obsession' with it. Its a shame your marriage makes you think of brothels being a better way OP, I've seen that side of life and its far from the hollywood its made out to be, I hope you find a real women who can give real love, then you will see the difference and get over it. :wink_smile:

Ah, our lovely Dragonborn is done with another hard day of saving everyones lives. From having crazy tribal people stab him with sticks covered in spikes, to bandits trying to rob him blind, to the occasional Draugr Overlord trying to decapitate him. Is it so wrong for him to want to go to a brothel, get some mead, and 'hire' one of the girls for a little bit?

*And yes, you can reverse the gender here. It's not like girls NEVER think about doing stuffs with random people. >_>*

If you want to see clothless people just go look at some Japanese games or something, there's no need for them in Skyrim.
(Or if you want to read about them just find the 4th volume of "The Real Benzarath" or however you spell that name)

Not necessarily in favour of brothels, but confused why I can't bang my wife. I was to make Dragonbornettes, who produce tiny versions of my known shouts when I ask them to.

Not about seeing clothless people; in fact that's not even necessary a lot of games have brothels without nudity so that argument is mote.

It's about immersion and the fact these places would and do than exist in a wold like this. In The Witcher 2 they had women being tortured and had obviously been [censored]. Now do I need to see a women being chained and tortured? No but I also don't need to see a mans head being chopped off either and to have one and not the other is more than a bit hypocritical :huh:

Odd that they would put something like that in 3ed installation, but not the 5th.

A brothel? What do you think this is, Witcher?

No American game designer in his right mind is brave (or stupid) enough to broach the subject of six and sixuality. You'll sooner see a game where you can disembowel small children and arrange their photorealistic intestines in various patterns than a game where six, nudity or both are present.

Don't like it, play European or Japanese games.

Are you serious? Not only do American game designers broach the subject of six and sixuality it was in "Fallout New Vegas" they had brothels, could sleep with hokers and some hunter chick. So your statement is a bit absurd. :nope:
