Ideas for bethesda to help stop lag

Give us the ability to clean up dead bodies with fire magic
by disintegrating them.

Need a way to destroy unwanted items in inventory. So we
don't have to leave them on the ground taking up memory.

I believe there's an ini tweak to change the value of how long the body stays in the world.

The problem is polygons. Bethesda needs to use this technology for TES 6:

That technology is completely unproven (to be useful for gaming) and as of now is all theoretical, in-the-works stuff of which I'm personally skeptical. I've no doubt that it exists, but can it actually be used for games? When I can see a proper tech demo incorporating animations and an actually interactive portion of gameworld, I may believe it, but as for now, it's simply not viable... and can you imagine how much HDD/SSD space such a thing would require? Polygons are the best-proven method available for game development and I don't expect that to change any time soon.

Well, Beth using advanced pc graphic technolgy is becoming a thing of the past it seems. Skyrim doesn't even have godrays. Nice vid, btw.

Or with the dead bodies, a option to destroy the body it the loot screen using magic. The body would then disintegrate into nothing after exiting the loot screen.

I bet if they go back to some 8bit graphics there will never be any lag, ever..
