There are Easter Eggs of people in other Elder Scroll games. I'm sure some people who found the Lord Brinne tomb in Morrowind wondered who the heck he was. So if there was a Gix Easter Egg .. *shrug*

Why are ayou against it?
You can't lose anything, just put him in the game for us!
I am telling you!
You can only make SKYRIM better (for Gix's friends and fans)!

Put who in Skyrim? Nevermind some Bix guy, put Fargoth frozen in a block of ice inside a remote cave and have him all crouched trying to put a ring inside a hollow rock....

Because filling fantasy games with pop culture and other IRL related figures is bad. Let′s have a scooma addict in one corner called Charlie Sheen, let′s have a Dark Elf called Mr.T and he will give you grenades that makes NPC′s have mohawks, let′s have a female imperial singer called Britney Spears, let′s have a NPC called Gix, let′s have a NPC that′s called Leeroy Jenkins that will run into a room and yell "LEEEEEEROOOOOYYYY JENKINS!" where a ton of dragon eggs will hatch and kill him. Let′s have a portal gun, let′s have a sword called Frostmourne, let′s have an orc called Thrall, let′s have a huge tunnel underground called Cern, let′s have a volcanic mountain called Mt.Doom, oh and I know! Let′s have an NPC called Ellert, that would be a great idea yeah ?

No, let′s keep Gix out and let′s not fill the game with IRL references. It′s okay to have one or two, but when you add Gix it just shows that anyone can have an easter egg in game.

haha, there's a Dwarf in Guild Wars called Kilroy Stonekin, who runs off yelling his name....

If anything, maybe they should sneak in a Nordic dopefish...

gix is cool but im not sure he deserves an npc

Haha when I first saw that guy, I laughed so hard I ended up wiping my group!

While I appreciate the thought (and am actually honoured that some of you think I'm worthy enough of the attention), I don't think I'd be able to compute the idea that I would be in a video game. I don't know how I'd react if I ever meet an easter-egg counter-part of myself Do I kill him? You know? "There could be only one!" or what?

I would find it hilarious indeed if I was mentioned as some sort of rumour somewhere in the game. Who wouldn't be? Finding a skeleton named Bob that you could somehow get as a companion or he's just there... not doing anything other than follow you around within a specific dungeon... now THAT would be awesome!

Like many have already pointed out, I'm not THAT well known. Not to mention I don't contribute that much to the community, if at all. The way I see it, some select few modders would deserve it much more than I. Lets Players are more of a viral publicity than anything while modders actually contribute to making the game experience better.

An easter-egg? Probably not. Now, beta testing... hell yeah! Gimmy my early copy!

I really appreciate the thought, though.

Maybe as a bretton mage/ leader of the mage's guild...

How about a NPC named after each of us?

The Elder Scrolls is not Shrek.

Who, what when?

But more importantly WHY?!

Why should HE be worth an easter egg? Hes only ever played ONE elders scrolls, and thats morrowind. Variax on the otherhand, has played through both morrowind and Oblivion. Still to be worth at least a mention in ANY game they would have to have surely LP'd ALL the elderscrolls games and be good at it in the first place : )

Who?

Did you bother to check before posting that? Because he's done Oblivion and a few videos of Daggerfall too.

Bad? According to who?

I can tell you right now that more people have heard of Charlie Sheen than President Obama, the Soviet Union, Tamriel, or even Bethesda.. If it's sales you're after, adding pop culture to videos games is never a bad idea. TES games would attact more players, none of the old players would stop playing (keep saying it isn't an addiction; I don't believe you), and we'd all be "winning".

Then again, nevermind.

I never watch lets play videos...only of minecraft did I do that.

Ok theres 2 Gixs who have done Oblivion lets plays, my bad.

I have a LOT of respect for the guy. I mean, I feature him on my Youtube channel (out of a total of 2). With that said, to play the devil's advocate, I'd say VEriax is more renowned for his videos on the Baldur's Gate series and people might associate me more with The Elder Scrolls. He plays a LOT of Baldur's Gate 2... it's almost scary! So maybe that's why. Maybe he could be an Easter Egg in Baldur's Gate 3 or something, haha!

Now that I think about it, he probably played The Elder Scrolls more than I had (considering I'm pretty new to the series - Oblivion) but it's all about how people associate things. I've been told plenty of times that I present/play the game the way it "should" be played... not that there's any wrong way to play it. Other stories tell that I've given their games (through inspiration) a new life.

I'm not trying to toot my horn here, I'm more or less trying to answer your question... because, honestly, I'm wondering the same thing

TLDR: Maybe people associate me with The Elder Scrolls?

No. I should be an easter egg instead. Seriously. People totally associate me with TES ALL the time. I'm not even joking, guys, take my word on it. Don't believe me? http://twitter.com/dcdeacon is a link to my twitter account with over 1300 followers.

Yes this was sarcasm. Also, I'll check out this Gix fellow, but his habit of posting a video of himself as he plays is a bit creepy.

Too late for that, a question deserves an answer, no matter what the question is.

It′s bad because popular does not equal to good, sure the established player-base would keep on playing, but the overall enjoyment would be reduced, a lot of players pick up on a game because of good reviews, the game would only get worse reviews from the established player-base that enjoys the feel and atmosphere of the game, bombard it with specific (with this word I′m talking about things you can′t mistake as an attribute that was not derived from something very specific in real life, having rakes does not make one go "Oh no, a rake! Just like in real life! Now rakes in real life just popped into my mind!" but have something like let′s just say Charlie Sheen, and it′s pretty hard not to bring up a mental image of the real person, that is, it is too specific not to break your attention away from the game a tiny bit) real life references and the game loses its charm, after all TES is not popular because it has good game mechanics, it′s popular because of how it can svck you in, how immersive (gggrrr red underline, put the word "immersive" into the English language already!) it is and how good the story is.

Ruin the games selling point and you ruin the respect people hold for the series. And things like these can easily escalate to huge levels. I have nothing against references to former games or individuals within the game world, like they could have painting for sale by the guy with the magic brush in Skyrim, but please don′t have too many references to the real world.

Fine, let's give him an NPC...

but only if these guys who made http://lparchive.org/Oblivion/ get their NPCs as well:

If Gix gits to be in the game then I think I should be as well, after all, I have been playing TES games since Daggerfall first came out I think I have more than earned the right to be in the game by now.

"put 1n teh tr0n gai nao!"

/sarcasm.

/NO.

Lets put in Sterrre the Mighty Wizard!

jk, gix, love your video's.
