forever destroyed?

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 5:38 am

ok here goes theres a new thread on here about dragons and as to wether they will be main quest only or randomly encountered in the wilderness. mine kind of runs parallel to that. as in the effects dragons have on the world will it be like OB where once a towns been destroyed it stays destroyed (i.e kavatch) or will it be rebuilt either over time or when you finish the main quest and the dragon threat has passed. etc must have seen at least a dozen threads in the OB forum complaining that everything stayed destroyed after the main quest was done no matter how many days passed afterwards.

also another question does anyone know if we will still run into dragons even when the main quest is done? if so that would be kinda odd

sory about my spelling/puncuation/grammar

So many people will go completist and want to collect all the dragon shouts, surely there must be dragons to kill after MQ. Unless the MQ is kill first dragon, kill second dragon, etc. etc. but they wouldn't do that to us would they?

I just had an Oblivion flashback, those damn gates. By the way, there is another thread just like this, something about rebuilding the cities and what the world would be like post MQ completion.

I would like to see a changing and adapting world too. Would be really good if places change during time with or without related quest.
I want the castle/city to be rebuilt? So i help the ppl and the workers there. I do not care? They rebuild slowly. I want it to stay in ruin? I keep killing workers and with time no one comes to rebuild. (they give up)

Just like if a city is constantly raided by bandits, if i do not help, with time the city becomes unpopulated and desert.

Right now, the answer to both questions is "We don't know", we don't even know if any cities will be destroyed during the course of the game, though it would seem likely that sometimes will get destroyed at some point, whether it's like Kvatch where it's destroyed the moment you go there or if you actually get to see how it was before its destruction. I just can't imagine a story about dragons coming to destroy everything without getting to see what they do to cities they get their claws on at some point. But since it hasn't been confirmed that any cities will be destroyed, we obviously can't know if any destroyed cities will be rebuilt.

As to whether dragons cotinue appearing after the main quest, we don't know, and I'd say it probably depends on how the main quest ends, and obviously Bethesda isn't going to tell us that before the game's release. But if I were to hazard a guess, I'd say "no", keep in mind that's only a guess on my part, and I've been wrong about this sort of thing before, but my guess is that the ending of the main quest will put an end to the dragon threat.

Closing gates in front of every city was an optional quest.

As for the topic: it is too early to know.

/\/\ kinda like this say there are X amount of towns cities villages etc and Y amount get destroyed during the game or MQ so will these stay destroyed for the whole game or will they be rebuilt after completion of the MQ or over time i love OB was a lil peeved when i completed the MQ for it and hoped kavatch would be rebuilt giving me a fresh locale to look around i hoe that this new engine of beths can handle rebuilding or flash repairng the damaged places maybe a couple could stay messd up but would prefer they didnt lol.
