Did you never play Fallout 3? It's a post-apocalyptic world full of wonderful, hilarious moments. Skyrim is the home of the Nords, who are the drunken jokers of the ES world. Besides, Bethesda loves adding humor to their games. There will be humor. PERIOD.

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of this recent trend of games moving in an increasingly dark direction. Take, for example, Mass Effect when compared to Mass Effect 2, or Dragon Age: Origins to Dragon Age 2. In both cases I liked the former better than the sequel, and I don't want to find myself disliking Skyrim for the same reason.

This isn't BioWare, dude. This is Bethesda. Don't worry (also, don't compare the two. EVER.).

I'm sure there will be plenty of humor and lighter moments but with Dragons and civil war breaking out, etc. I would think you'd have to make it at least a tad more darker/edgier/grim.

These are the guys who, in the middle of a radioactive wasteland, set a super mutant behemoth on you if you went near it's teddy bear. I shouldn't worry too much.

Look at my sig. Look at me. Look at Solsthiem, then at Skyrim. Whimsical people can live in the cold as well!
P.S. Im riding a horse (whos riding a dragon).
