[censored] Spears! Me and My Undead Mistress need a Snuggle Button! :hugs:

I don't know if I would be happy, but it would certainly make for a fun challenge.

Todd mentioned that Radiant Story quests can involve people getting angry and hiring assassins to take you out, or someone else could try to hire you for an assassination job, but the target turns out to be someone you care about.

so long as haveing a speachcraft skill of 6+ dosen't get me mobbed in the streets by the local girls (and the occasional homosixual) all wondering why i haven't proposed to them, despite the fact i have never talked to them before. If it happens eaven once im slaughtering the lot of them, and to the planes of Oblivion with the bloody fine.

but seriously, what IS the fine for necrophilia in Skyrim?

Is this your third offense?

how long have you and the lovely Draugr been married?

Good news!
I hope they will show as the wedding ceremony in the game,like going with your spouse at the Chapel of Mara,having various npcs as guests and a priest asking you if you love your spouse to be etc...
It will be fun if the marriage is presented in-game and you don't only get a screen telling you that you got married.

I feal slightly proud of myself for knowing that Debela(or her skyrim-name equivelent) is, after all, the goddess of love. if i get to chose a chapple, there would be nice. If I can chose anywhere? the top of the thorough of the world. Im sure the view is beautiful, and id invite all the local dragons to the bachelors party.

Yes, it would be a bit odd to suddenly be married without any kind of ritual involved.

Will it be possible to cheat? If so, can we get busted by our spouse?

Are Nords polygamous? :hubbahubba:

interesting,it seems more and more ppl accepted the romance feature of this game

i still remember a ton of ppl complaining last time,yet at the same time they always saying they want to be able to do everything be everything in the game,doesnt make any sense to me at all

I like the idea of relationships, and even having loved ones/partners, but I hope the people you marry or live with don't just end up spouting the same lines and whatnot. Maybe with the radiant story there could be side quests that relate to your relationship, such as dealing with your spouses' angry Orc fathers, or saving them from aggressors. These could even be little things, like them asking you to get some food when you're not out punching dragons in the dike.

Yes yes yes yes yes. Im going to exploit this system to the ground.

exactly.

I think my spouse should be able to have a cat fight with the other female I was flirting with.....you know to add realism :whistling:

am i the only one who wants to marry a female companion and go adventuring and stuff together, for example, i would RP that i was with cass in F:NV, it just matched my characters personality.
and how cool would it be, if this were to happen.
*walks into dungeon, nearly gets killed by draugrs, barely survives, then...another one appears, you have no hope against it, so, you prepare to meet your maker, then, an arrow spouts out of the draugrs mouth, followed by a fireball to the chest, and as he drops your spouse appears behind it holding bow aloft*

that seems like something one of my main characters would do, my other one however, she's very much a lone wolf.

I wonder what Maiq The Liar or his descendent would have to say about this subject.

"Marriage, why would Maiq not marry, he gets lonely at night and needs the company".

Unless there are only a small amount of select NPCs you can romance/marry, I don't expect there to be much depth to it. So I don't anticipate spouses reacting to other 'romances' or anything like that.

in mud :hubbahubba:

I'll just look for the woman with the largest and most beautiful......ahem.......eyes. :hubbahubba:

If you can marry almost anyone I don't think the system will be very complex, and I am very glad of it. I think your spouse will be just a very good friend that lives with you in your house, but minds his/hers own business (wonder around the city and stuff) and maybe have a few special dialogues. I think the rest will be left to our imagination and I am very happy with that. I'm all for romance, but I don't need The Sims in my Skyrim, no gifts, no dates, none of that stuff, because no matter how deep they'd make it, it'd get boring very quickly (you often get bored with real-life people you spend a lot of time with, it would be much worse with NPCs). Better to do less and leave it to imagination than try to fit expectations of a small group of players while the rest will always be unsatisfied.

Lol. I completely agree.

As for writing in Bioware games...its not 'bad'...its just too melodramatic as kind of a symptom of the epic storylines. If they made something like a modern day urban fantasy set somewhere grounded and realistic (please dear god, potential for rpg gold) I could see romances being a lot more casual and as a result, much improved in regards to writing. Unless they stuck in an Edwardesque vampire romance.

yes, absolutely, or a tavern brawl

thats what necromancy is for buddy :goodjob:

Bruce did say "You make friends with people by doing things for them."

I take that to mean you have to complete some quests in order to get them to like you, and probably more to progress to romance.

I don't believe it would be a matter of simply, elligible young women (or men) all have a dialogue option that lets you get married if your disposition is high enough.

I think there must be a sequence of tasks of some kind, and some kind of flirting process must be necessary to proceed from "friendship" to "romance." I also can't imagine any potential romance partner would immediately be marriageable, there most likely will be a further process to progress from "romance" to betrothal.

I think he was talking about my Wolf Queen of Solitude.
