I was thinking, in Skyrim do you believe we will see NPC's crying in-game, I noticed a lack of this in Oblivion. Any thoughts?

I notice a lack of people crying in public in real life.

People don't cry in nirn..

(don't play the tears of the saviour card on me..)

Ok, OK! You win, dammit.. I don't really have anything to say against this. It'd add something to the dialogue.

Meh I wouldn't doubt it if kids cried at some point in this game. I'd enjoy slaying a hulking nord barbarian while he was weeping uncontrollably on his knees bwahahaha

It could be during a certain quest, for example I would think if I were the Count of Skingrad I would of cried if my wife died in front of me.

Too bad there are no locational damage, because if there was I can make many, MANY guys cry

<_<

Anyways, It would add more character to NPC's, isn't that something Beth is going for now? Especially with Todd usually going "ok the radiant story would give you a mission where a child is kidnapped and taken to a location you havent been to." It would make sence for the mother of the child to cry. Otherwise I would think they planned it all

I would love to see more emotion in NPC's. The new dialogue system could make this possible; NPC's don't just stand up straight without their arms moving while talking.

Yeah, that's a good point. Especially in the rough and tough land of Skyrim. It's not overly likely.

Carebear tears will fuel my dragon-killing spree!

Well, in Skyrim, you won't exactly be doing 'normal' stuff either.

People are gonna die.
Villages are gonna get burned.
Disasters will occure.

Life will not be normal xD

There could be someone who act all tough outside and in public, but once you get to that persons house to hear what he/she had to say, that persons emotional state is clear because he/she's crying while telling you about event X.

Haven't you seen true blood? Everyone knows vampires don't cry they leak.

It didn't happen that often but was part of the many new animations they included for NPCs.

Phew for a second there I thought this was going to be another, I know you didn't ask for my opinion, but now i'm going to [censored] about something that I don't like because I think I'm important thread.

People don't cry in Skyrim. Everyone knows the risk of living in Skyrim.

That's a actually a great idea.:thumbsup:

I'm considering to sig that. :rofl: :lmao: :lol:

For the most gruesome things that can happen in a fantasy world, I think indeed NPCs were a bit too cool before. Having a bit more drama would be okay.
