Animal Journal

Post » Thu May 19, 2011 11:13 am

Bethesda has added everything i wanted to SKYRIM (Still waiting for werewolves and vampires of course) But i would love for them to add a hunting journal so whatever you kill you can see the description of the thing you have killed, where it likes to live, and stuff like that...

But it would be better if it was just an empty journal at the start so you didn't see how many creatures are in the game and when you kill something it just appears there.


What are your thoughts? Would you like the model of the animal to be like items so you can rotate them and see all the details? (That would be amazing) Discuss... :biggrin:

I kinda like the idea, maybe showing the alchemy effects in the kill you have too.

Id honestly just like the ability to write my OWN personal journal in-game. helps me come up with my own storylines, reasons for going somewhere, and adds personality to my character.

but to the annimal journals, it would be cool, yeah.

Maybe, it all sounds good exept, we shouldnt be able to see how many there is at the start of the game, that will just ruin the point of finding it out yourself, also i dont think we should be able to do a 360 degree veiw of it, just a sketch like a real journal, i also would only want something like this for maybe, a beastiarity like this mention, ingrients for alchemy and thats about it, i dont want to have a full codex of everything in the game, also we should be able to buy these specific journals from shops, because for example, if your character didnt care about alchemy or hunting, it wouldnt make much sense to have full in-depth journals that the PC wrote themselves in-game about things they dont care about.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking i hate the idea that they would be showing you all the animals as soon as you look in it i want them to appear once you have killed them :) and yeah that would be a good idea, or if there are hunting quest's your first quest someone gives you the journal and explains it's use. :hubbahubba:

Yeah that would be really cool! like if you see a point of interest, but you really need to get to your quest, you could write what's next to it like locations to see where it is. Could be useful for many thing! :smile:

It's like a pokedex, but for Skyrim. Lol, but I agree, it'd be cool to stumble upon books talking about animals and other creatures, their weaknesses, strengths, lore, etc.
