Skyrim Questions

Post » Fri May 28, 2010 9:27 pm

Here is a compiled list of requests and questions: Feedback is greatly appreciated! :D

Requests:
PLEASE, PLEASE add throwing knives, or something of that sort
PLEASE let us be able to climb things, not just jump. (Jump, grab ledge with your hands and pull yourself up)
Please expand the customization of houses and character creation! Muscle size, height, etc.
Please add a quicksave button for consoles! Such as pressing Select!
Please let us choose to either kill or knock out someone while fist fighting!
Are there undergarments/clothes that can be put under armor? I’m pretty sure I’m not naked under cold steel armor!

Questions:
I don’t remember if you confirmed this, but are there any special chests in dungeons with A LOT of good loot? A boss or something guarding it would make it actually worth it!
Will there be other means of entry into buildings/cells i.e. entering through windows, cellar doors, large chimneys?
Are there actual instant kills with sneak mode, not just a slash in the back?
Are picking locks, accessing your inventory, eating and drinking, etc. in real time? I don’t like eating in 0.01 seconds, please have an animation for everything!
Horse-back fighting?
Can you go more in-depth with the perk and skill system?
Is Character Creation only for looks? I hate to be a Wood Elf/Argonian just to have good sneak skills!
Can we jump and grab a ledge with your hands and pull yourself up?
If this game is this detailed, could you steal taxes and shop income? Like there is a schedule when guards pick tax up, and then set it inside a desk in their barracks? Then you could steal it :P
How does a guard know what items are stolen, and how does he know you committed a crime when there was no witness?
A hardcoe mode like in Fallout: New Vegas?
If you have alerted an enemy and you didn’t even know, will the music change? I hate hearing combat music and be like, “Oh, well I know something is going to attack me, and I have no idea where it’s gonna come from.”
Can you cook food? If there is rat meat and it damages me, I’m pretty sure if I cook it, it will be good for me!
Is there more variety in the wilderness, such as deer, rabbit, squirrels, cows, wolves, sheep, etc.?
Please make reactions more realistic! If you steal something, I’m pretty sure the owner wouldn’t just stand there and say “PUT THAT BACK!” If you started running, they might chase you! But don’t let them chase you forever, everyone has a limit. And if you actually drop whatever you stole, depending on how much they like you, would they take it back and call the guards or let it slide?
Are animals realistic? I’m pretty sure dogs have super-sonic hearing, so they can be alerted to your presence easier than a human.
Is the “_______ is unconscious” thing back in this game?
Are you only able to kill while fist fighting? It would be greatly appreciated if we could knock out someone, not just kill.
Will any type of helmet/hat hide the hair completely like in Oblivion? It annoyed me…
*Instead instantly increasing your skills, for a lump sum of gold will there be some kind of minigame/training to quickly train a skill? Almost like a tutorial on how to be better at the skill. Please make multiple training lessons and increase the amount of skill increases you can do. PLEASE!
Will we still be able to create our own spells like in Oblivion?
Will we be able to delete spells from our spell-book once they’ve outgrown their usefulness?
Will wind affect arrows?

You should check this thread. http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1170249-confirmed-features
It shows most of everything that has been confirmed so far, you'll probably find a lot of answers to your questions there.


And there is also the new Skyrim fan interview thread, where you post your questions and they might get answered in the near future. http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1187682-announcing-the-skyrim-fan-interview-3/

Uhhhm... well cooking is confirmed. There will be raw and cooked versions of every meat. Cooking is not related to any skill though, just a misc. activity.

Here is a compiled list of requests and questions: Feedback is greatly appreciated! :D


Questions:
I don’t remember if you confirmed this, but are there any special chests in dungeons with A LOT of good loot? A boss or something guarding it would make it actually worth it!


-Probably. There will be hard dungeons from the start. Possibly one a lvl. 1 cannot do.

Will there be other means of entry into buildings/cells i.e. entering through windows, cellar doors, large chimneys?

-Probably not, but no-one knows.

Are there actual instant kills with sneak mode, not just a slash in the back?

-Arrows are said to be much more effective now.

Are picking locks, accessing your inventory, eating and drinking, etc. in real time? I don’t like eating in 0.01 seconds, please have an animation for everything!

-God I hope not. How annoying would that be after 30 min.

Horse-back fighting?

-Horses are of yet unconfirmed. Theyll only put em in if they feel they can do it right.

Can you go more in-depth with the perk and skill system?

- I dont know.

Is Character Creation only for looks? I hate to be a Wood Elf/Argonian just to have good sneak skills!

- I hope there are racial perks and weaknesses, but they are unconfirmed. If all races would be the same it would boil down to only a different look and that would be boring.

Can we jump and grab a ledge with your hands and pull yourself up?

-No-one knows.

If this game is this detailed, could you steal taxes and shop income? Like there is a schedule when guards pick tax up, and then set it inside a desk in their barracks? Then you could steal it :P

-Unknown but economy is said to be more realistic, nefarious acts can damage an economy.

How does a guard know what items are stolen, and how does he know you committed a crime when there was no witness?
A hardcoe mode like in Fallout: New Vegas?

-Unknown.

If you have alerted an enemy and you didn’t even know, will the music change? I hate hearing combat music and be like, “Oh, well I know something is going to attack me, and I have no idea where it’s gonna come from.”

-Well, my eyesight isnt that good and I do like these audio clues something is happening. But no-one knows.

Can you cook food? If there is rat meat and it damages me, I’m pretty sure if I cook it, it will be good for me!

-Yes.

Is there more variety in the wilderness, such as deer, rabbit, squirrels, cows, wolves, sheep, etc.?

-Yes. Also, not all animals and monsters are hostile.

Please make reactions more realistic! If you steal something, I’m pretty sure the owner wouldn’t just stand there and say “PUT THAT BACK!” If you started running, they might chase you! But don’t let them chase you forever, everyone has a limit. And if you actually drop whatever you stole, depending on how much they like you, would they take it back and call the guards or let it slide?

-Unknown.

Are animals realistic? I’m pretty sure dogs have super-sonic hearing, so they can be alerted to your presence easier than a human.

-Seems logical, but unknown if its in the game.

Is the “_______ is unconscious” thing back in this game?

-God, I hope not. Essential NPC's, no please. Its unknown, but quests are so advanced that it is possible if you kill a shopkeeper, his related quest might go to his sister instead.

Are you only able to kill while fist fighting? It would be greatly appreciated if we could knock out someone, not just kill.

-Unknown.

Will any type of helmet/hat hide the hair completely like in Oblivion? It annoyed me…

-Most likely like previous games, both open and closed helmets.

*Instead instantly increasing your skills, for a lump sum of gold will there be some kind of minigame/training to quickly train a skill? Almost like a tutorial on how to be better at the skill. Please make multiple training lessons and increase the amount of skill increases you can do. PLEASE!

-Again, would be annoying after only the first time. The two hour time loss is fine to me. Unknown though.

Will we still be able to create our own spells like in Oblivion?

-Most likely not.

Will we be able to delete spells from our spell-book once they’ve outgrown their usefulness?

-I really hope so, even if there is no spellmaking there might be spells that after a while I find I just dont use.
Unknown though.


Some interesting questions there :) Mostly about features people dont know about.
