Small Details

Post » Sat Apr 10, 2010 6:54 am

In the previous Elder Scrolls, we had no children, we got children now so it kinda adds a bit more detail to the world, but if there was something that got me more confused was... Where on Earth(Or Tamriel*cough*) do the people of Tamriel go to go number two? As strange as it may seem, this is one weird thing I noticed that there is no toilets or shape or form where the races can go.. It seems they got a place to go sleep, eat, drink yet no toilets. Unless they have all been keeping it in(Would explain the faces pulled during the persuasion wheel in Oblivion :spotted owl: ), but it would be nice to see small details like this in the world, I hate pulling out this card but it would add to immersion. I know it is a game, but again it would be nice to see details.

For sake of discussion... What small details would you like included?

Don't know how religious the npc's will be,but a weekly 'go to temple on sundas' schedule would be a nice touch; ala Rivet City's Saint Monica Church.

@DarthZach91: I would actually like religious NPCs to be religious especially with the Dragons and Civil War, praying for an end.. Which is ironic because of course Akatosh is Alduin.lol But it would be cool, also with NPCs that worship a lot of Daedric gods.

yes i wondered tha myself. outhouses would make perfect sense even if the npcs don't use them (kinda gross to be able to sit next to a guy popping....)

I don't. I like to think that there is little-to-no waste in the food of Tamriel, so there's no need for such things.

This could actually be implemented as a mod in Oblivion... but here goes:

Eating a lot of red meat gives you a timed ability that is set to a random interval. This ability, when it goes off, reduces your personality and the disposition of everyone around you. A farting sound sounds when this happens. Now that would be immersion right there, the ability to fart depending on what you eat.

Let's say instead of red meat, it was mort flesh and daedra hearts. The resulting fart causes health-damage to everyone around you, lowers their disposition to 0 and causes them to all attack you with blind rage.

If you are near a child when you emit either type of fart, they laugh and say something about farts being funny, because to kids farts are always funny.

Well, in a way this is discussing generally all small details not kitchens and bathrooms, although Bathrooms is a small detail I would like to see included.

If you are near a child when you emit either type of fart, they laugh and say something about farts being funny, because to kids farts are always funny.

That would be funny although it would best as a rare occurrence, as all I can imagine now is walking up to a group of children just to hear an almighty roar of a fart and joint laughter.lol
