six in video games is creepy, because a bunch of guys have to make it. But blood, gore, swearing is all good as long its necessary.

skooma would actually be closer to crack cocaine.

I would like to see a different approach to gore. I can't say what that would be, but I find massive amounts of blood...juvenile.
as for swear words, no I don't want to see any modern english ones.

I agree with all of the above, for the most part.



Is this sarcasm? Because if it is, it's great!

What kind of poll question is that? I'd buy Skyrim whether it had cursing and gore or whether it didn't. Why? Dragons, TES open gameplay, magic, weapons, side quests, etc etc.

Thy sword thrust for the blood of thy enemy---and head and body severing too.

I think it's important to remember blood and gore does not necessary make a game any better. It's like adding salt and pepper to a dish. Go overboard with it and it taste damn awful and give that cheap and tacky feel. That been said blood, gore and swearing is good belongs they do not over do it. Nudity, drugs and six are fine too belongs they fit in well into the story and progress it. These days most of this stuff is pretty tame anyway (well until modders get their hands onto it:P)

I only hate this stuff when it's done badly. I don't mind blood and gore but I certainly do not want Skyrim to feel like a B grade 70s zombi movie. I don't mind swearing ( i curse enough myself) but I don't want it seem unnatural or overdone. six and drugs need to fit into the story and not just be there because the Devs wanted a six scenes.

Plus, who wouldn't swear if they saw a fire breathing dragon flying over head? I think the word Fark would likely be said:P

This poll doesn't have nearly as many options as it should. I have no problem with blood, gore, swearing or anything of that nature. So long as the game is fun, who cares? And someone said they don't believe the F word was used back then, but the thing is, there is no "Back then" that we can relate to. Considering this game takes place in a different reality from our own. It's even based on another planet in a different universe. I don't even believe they speak english, but I'm not complaining.

Why cant you Swear at your Home while playing a Game and just Mod for more Blood, while Skyrim could be M Rated

You have Enough Guts and Gore Games, let Skyrim stay with M16+ :toughninja:

Horrible poll, so I wont vote. I like six and gore and mature story content but theyre not the only reasons I would play Skyrim.

1. You say you DONT ADD six, but go on to explain that youd like relationships. While I see your point, its kind of dumb to say, "You can have a spouse/significant other, but you cant reproduce or have six". Thats kind of the purpose of a relationship, to recreate, other than obvious benefits such as companionship. I dunno I think having relationships with no six is kind of a slap in the face. If you want a relationship, but dont want to have six the option should be there. But I dont want some nag hanging around my hideout all the time that doesnt even put out. Personally I dont care one way or the other, because to me having relationships in a video game is a dull, boring experience (GTA 4, Fable Series), but like I said I find it silly to add a relationship portion to the gameplay, but leave out pro--creation.

2. I dont get this comment. You say there is no point to recreational drugs, and "no, not drugs" but then go on to say you want alechemical products that produce the same effects as recreational drugs, such as hallucinating. To clarify: Hallucinating = Recreational Drug Effect. Besides, drinking and drugs are in TES history and fittingly have been featured in each previous game. Greef, brandy and wine are alcohol. Skooma and moon sugar are TES equivalents of narcotics.

Maybe....just maybe...Its impossible to please everybody. Especially when it seems most people dont even know what they want.

"Relationship" doesnt mean sixual or romantic. Any friends you have you are in a relationship with, just like youre in relationships with your family members. But as for romantic relationships you point out GTA and Fable, and I can point out Dragon Age Origins and Knights of the Old Republic.

Edit: I know DAO has six scenes, I just meant that not all games with those relationships are the same.

very true, and I may have been reading out of context but it did seem implied that the post was reffering to romantic relationships. Again, maybe I was just making assumptions.

As for friends and whatnot, I dont mind having them in game....but personally Ive got better things to do than juggle friendships in game. Im sure Id play around with it, but there would have to be some decent benefits to get me to 'make friends' regularly.

Mostly I play a lone wolf type character. I steal, kill, and generally do just about anything I want. I dont mind having companions and whatnot, but the upkeep of friendships in game seems like a tedious and boring addition.....I dunno, maybe Im just forever tainted from playing Fable's horrendous friend and spouse system.
