I know that there will be some dogs in the game, but do we know if there will be random cats and dogs wandering around towns and human settlements? what kinds of birds and insects will there be? I think that having minor animals and harmless wildlife adds immersion. It would be great to see and hear songbirds, ducks swimming, even ants and crickets or maybe spiders that were normal, not the size of a small car! Ambient critter noises would be great especially if they "turned off" as a sign of danger. Suppose you are wandering around the forest and the birds suddenly stop signing...because a pack of trolls are closing in on you!

It'd be funny if you could be stung by bees, and a swarm would attack you after the initial sting. Perhaps each sting could be -1 hp or something like that.

Would like that. Would also like to have a cat as a pet in game. Not necessarily as a companion, but as a pet in my home, definitely.

"Makes it easier to get immersed in"
How can you add immersion?

Anyway I hope we have lots of passive animals, domestic or wild.

It adds to hunting for a start.

if you want to talk about dogs see my thread

i sure hope so ^_^

Let me be a beekeeper. I could stick quite few bees in a jar to throw at my enemies. Clear out a house in under 30 seconds after tossing one of those through the window.

It would be cool to see birds hunting/eating or warning of impending danger like you mentioned. There was a mod in Oblivion that added cats and rats and it really was cool. Seeing cats chase rats, even though it wasn't very noticable, made cities seem more lively.

All of these are in besides house cats. We do have sabretooth cats though... and Khajiit.

Oh ther will be kitties! or Khajiitis!

... and khajiits lol :lmao:

Don't think I will try to keep a Khajiit as a pet--I prefer to remain on the outside of my pet.

Kidnap a Khajiit child!

Enslave khajiits and have them work the mines

enslave the altmer and have them take care of the khajiit kitties :tongue:

i agree

A house cat would knock over all ur stuff that u spent an hr setting up

I'd have a cat at home,and a cat to fight...."uh oh a dragon!*cat hisses,then jumps on the dragon and claws its eyes out* "
