NO. You can NOT breathe forever underwater.

Post » Sun Sep 25, 2011 12:54 pm

Oh hey.

Everyone remember that time I said "They'll probably let you know you're underwater too long with gulping sounds," in that other thread?

And remember how some people were like "That's stupid."?

I remember.

Hilarious that people even considered this to be not the case, all based on vague info and bad quotes...

Typical overreaction and jumping to conclusions. It's laughable anymore.

Did anyone seriously think we would have unlimited underwater time?

:brokencomputer:
:stupid:

They made weapons and armours indestructible so yes it wasn't beyond the pale they would remove drowning too. To you know make the game more "streamlined" and "accessible".

But I'm happy they didn't. I only wonder if the PC version will have its own indication of drowning aside from sounds. My mouse and keyboard don't "rumble"... well at least I've never seen them do it...

They made weapons and armor upgradable rather than indestructable, a far superior and rewarding system and the opposite of streamlining since it requires more effort than just carrying stupid hammers :facepalm:

Aquaman will now buy the game.

But I'm sure that what iMissLeeches was really trying to say was "I'm sorry for jumping to dumb conclusions earlier, but I can only express myself passive-aggressively."

Just as a tip for anyone curious as to how Gheart and others link directly to a specific tweet, click on the date/time. So, where it says "42 minutes ago" for instance, click on that and it will take you to the direct link. :spotted owl:

On topic: As others have said, I don't see how you could have thought otherwise, but I am glad the fears of those who did have been alleviated. :)

Edit* ^ An Argonian by Oblivion's standards. They may or may not still be able to breathe indefinitely underwater. :ninja:

Don't know how to link to a specific post, but the relevant one is about a quarter to a third of the way down that page.

Well, You cannot win if you not choose a side. :tongue:

Or you can just wait the two sides kill each other and them usurp the Forum Kingdom. :ph34r:

Almost, except I don't do passive. It's only full, unadvlterated aggressive from me and I guarantee no feature will ever be removed from it ^^
