In oblivion most items were utterly useless or had worth nothing of value. Bear pelts for example are worth 40 septims but weigh 8kg making it barely worth while. With the new forge skill being released I hope we could actually make good use of pelts to make 'em into armor worth my time. I mean the only thing worth while hunting was venison and boar meat and a bunch of Cairn Bollete caps to make health potions. But bears and lions were only a little [censored] at the back of my neck, and the difficulty of killing them rewards nothing but useless scut. And hunting is quite fun, but not worth while. I also hope they put Polar bears and other variable rl animals to hunt. It's one of my favorite things to do in RDR.
I want hunting, too. But you shouldn't be able to hunt with swords, bows or magic only. I don't care if you're the Dovahkinn, you shouldn't be outrunning deer and moose!
