Only if the Bosmer are slaves. In fact, I think they should be slaves regardless.

I would like Ollie.

I think what you are referring to is a Yak.

And Yes, Skyrim should totally have these.

Muskox might be a better fit though as they coexisted with Mammoths and are Nordic creatures. But they are smaller and not as bovine-like. Good replacement for domestic cattle though.

Oh I would love me some pack animals. But remember folks to look after your http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/images/feb08/SL_MuleRPS.jpg.

Definitely makes sense to me - I was surprised when I realised horses couldn't carry anything for you in Oblivion, it just seems like an obvious thing to do to me.

Pack animals as in animals in packs or pack mules?

I would love to see animals in packs.

If you mean pack mules, I would love to see pack mules.

Horses...nuff' said and I hope there are no Dragon mounts or atleast make it near impossible to get

Animals you can use to carry loot and gear, but animals that roam in packs would be cool too, although I think Bethesda has done that already with the deer in Oblivion and the wolves on Solsthiem.

sitting on the back of a mammoth would be very cool. Having one following me around, not so much.

I was thinking for the other section wooly rinos and a return of slavery that the empire is gone. I am looking forward to enslaving the impirials.

Horse and cart. Each will take up a "follower slot". Horse and cart can't fight for you but increases your traveling speed and carrying capacity. Normal followers will aid you more in fighting, but won't allow you to travel as fast and be limited to your own (more realistic, but not fully realistic) carrying capabilities. We can't have it all, it's a choice we'll make that suits our playstyle. Maybe traveling merchants would have a dwarf mammoth (or a donkey) for carrying, but it can't be mounted and he is a walker. Larger mammoths could be used as strider services.

Can't have it all until a mod come out for it. :biggrin:

Dude, don't you remember how slow they were?

I want a pack slaughterfish. What? I could make it work.

» Tue May 17, 2011 3:25 pm

BTW

I don't want PACK animals

I want packs OF ANIMALS, you know cause mammoths and horses traveled in packs.

Then goto this http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1162056-wildlife-of-skyrim/page__p__17062422__fromsearch__1#entry17062422 thread...

Elaborate.

I don't want this game to become loot oriented. It's better if you carry what you can carry yourself and makes you appreciate and care more for every piece of your equipment.

Not for this game. For an isometricRPG, of course.
