six and things of that sort.

Well, we can get married in the game, so it would be a little weird if it wasn't at least implied to some degree. I mean, it's not like your spouse is going to say, "I can't believe we're finally married! Now lets go goblin hunting!"

six, realtionships and such should not be in the game, at all. Every game that tries to have such thing ingame fail at it horribly making it not even close to real life. Therefore, skip it.

Dont thnk I will. Can't imagine it will be anything like a real life relation. And even if they can come close, Skyrim will not even be close.

I'm talking about suggestive themes,
like in the fallout games. Characters talking about sixual things, strippers, prosttutes etc.


Also there was a woman soldier in NV who went bi after getting [censored].

I wouldn't like to see prosttutes and strippers in every corner like NV but some suggestive themes would be nice. I think there was a small clan of female bandits (Sirens?) in Oblivion who would seduce and rob male NPCs. It was just that one time though. More stuff like it would be nice, especially if there are crude and drunk nords in the game. :foodndrink:

Edit: Wow, they censor that? I wasn't swearing BTW, I don't know why would censor such a word.

Something like earlier games have had, humorous implications etc. Not too rough though, of course. I'm pretty sure there will be a mention to Lusty Argonian Maid. :D

So marriage is confirmed. Children are confirmed.

It seems unlikely that we'll able to have our own children. If it is in the game, it raises some questions. Will we have to wait 9 months in game for our wife to give birth? Will the child inherit its fathers or mothers looks? (I don't think there will be hybrids, more likely the genes of one parent will be more dominant.) I hope to Akatosh that there is no awkward cutscene during six, should it be in the game.

At the same time, it will be pretty weird to get married and stand around the house all day talking to each other. If Bethesda want to do this whole marriage thing, i would prefer them to do it right.

Nine months: Why not? My longest-running game in Morrowind is close to 20 in-game years, in Oblivion a bit over 3 years still.

Looks: By the lore, children have the race of their mother with sometimes small variations hinting at the father's race. It takes heavy intermingling over multiple generations for a new "hybrid" race to appear.

House of Earthly Delights! I thought it was appropriately done. If done so I believe it would only enhance the game.

Light touches like in Morrowind to simply show that six is a thing that exists in Tamriel to give the world a bit more life. If you must be allowed to hire prosttutes it should fade to black and it should affect your reputation.

Also something something lusty Argonian maid there now that that's done I can go to sleep.

We won't be having our own kids ppl.. I'm not sure it would be a great idea to have your dragon slayer go into labour halfway through slaying alduin...

Oh I totally agree that nine months is no problem for MOST people. For others who play the game not so often, it might be a bit annoying. Perhaps in Tamriel, it only takes four weeks to have a baby? ;) I wonder, would the child of Dovakhiin be born with the soul of a dragon?

And thank you for the information. Interesting stuff.

I don't see how your character would know what she's going through/he'd be ok with the current situation if you're gone and slaying Alduin ;)

I would like it if the game had suggestive themes, some serious and some treated with humor. six is a part of life, one can barely walk down the street without seeing or hearing anything suggestive in real life, so artificial avoidance of it is unreasonable to say the least. While I would live the more graphical things to other games (mostly because I thin Beth themselves are not yet ready or comfortable with it) the normal amount of comments and dialog would be good. I'd say it's one of the things they can look to Fable for - nothing graphical but plenty of references in many ways :)

I dont mind six references, at all, infact I think they canmake the game more interested in some aspects. But when it comes to actual six, no, I would hate that. This game shoudnt turn into some kinda... northern dating sim

The vast, VAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAST majority of people who played Morrowind and Oblivion did not get past a single in-game year. It's more than possible to exhaust most of the game's content within that time frame and boost your character to godlike degrees of power. The inclusion of having kids in Skyrim would either be a feature that most people would never see or it would be an extremely cheap Fable-type deal where you plow your wife and come home two weeks later to see a twelve year old who's wondering why you never visit. And then you'll fart your way into the people's hearts.

No and no. Unless, it's a subtle/mild sixual theme that makes sense in the world of TES and that "feels right". Kind of like the quest "The Siren's Deception" in Oblivion.

:facepalm:


play the witcher series ? why do they get the right to be the only games to add six in a game ? personally im not fussed either way but fallout NV of the screen going black for a 2 seconds and then going back to looking like nothing ever happened or acknowledged something just happened is a waste of time . u either make the decision to put it in or not don't do a poor attempt at a middle ground

CD Projekt might be fine with inserting softcoe porm into their action RPG but I really don't think it would fit in Skyrim.

That's the modders' job anyway.

Well, wright some books like The Real Barenziah (in the original Daggerfall version, that is), and leave the rest to players imagination. Morrowind was such a good game because it fueled your imagination, rather than telling you: "Now you have six with that lustfull argonian maiden (wich, by the way, is a reptile, and thus has a cloaca, wich is, frankly, downturning, but whatever) *insert cheesy six-scene here in wich nothing really is shown and that bears no resemblance to real life six (or bears, for that matter)."

And regarding six as displayed in The Witcher: This it not so far off from reality, i know quite a few guys who do this kind of trophy hunting, it is just that most of the people don't get the chance to [censored] everything they see, thus thinking it is impossible, while it really is not. 1968, anyone?

Edit: To the guy directly above me: Yeah, i think so too, Geralt is a fully developed character, and thus the actions of the NPCs can be finetuned to fit him perfectly, that is not possible in an Open World RPG where everyone is playing a (more or less) different character.

I think sixuality if done correctly can change how we perceive the characters in their environment,
It's in any organisms genes to have that urge to reproduce to continue it's species but it becomes much more than
that. I'm not talking topless barmaids(ehhh why not?) and cheesy sixual jokes but just the concept of attraction and
being able to pursue that with your character.
