This game just got a lot more interesting, thanks for posting.

Decapitations and six! W00T!

Oh, God I'm a 61 year old nerd....

(Is anyone else amused that the entire slant of this thread is joyous celebration of an "M" rating?) :celebration:

Awesome! that mean a better game for us "advlts":D

Now, let us hope together that the dialogue and writing will be advltworthy as well, rather than cringeworthy.

Sounds awesome.

I actually found just those small examples of dialogue more satisfying than the demo video. It seems the game will be a little 'grittier' or 'darker' than Oblivion with seedy areas in towns and the reference to the Molag Bal vampire origin is nice. Also, drinking games!

We've got decapitations? This news pleases me.

and Beth is still trying to make us savers of the world!...epic fail.there is no hope for us and for the worlds we play!! :devil:

:foodndrink: Yes, because we "advlts" are awesome and deserve this :celebration: :celebrate:

:tes:

That sounds great! Good news!

So Skyrim will have Violent Gore and sixual Intentions with Swearing and Crude Words, basically the Game will be like LOTR War of the North

I don't think that the game can have sixual Intentions...

And why is this news, everyone? It's had an M rating since it was pre-order-able, hasn't it?

Did you read the article?

I was riffing on the bad grammar.

The game can have sixual content, but unless the disc is trying to slip something in your drink, it can't have sixual intentions.

Decapitation as a random slow-mo finishing move, eh? Sounds like an axe or blade finisher. If this is not a mistake on the part of the ESRB author, then it would also be cool if crushing or blunt weapons don't decapitate but rather, splatter. Sorry if it sounds violent, but Skyrim isn't a vacation spot. Sounds promising. Hopefully Beth is keeping little tidbits like this from us, so that we will have a bit of a shock and awe factor when we play the game. Imagine your initial reaction you're fighting a bandit and you cleave off his head with an astonishing finisher using your two-handed battle-axe. You'd be like, "HOLY FUUUUU!!!!" Maybe it's part of the perk trees for specific weapons where there's a chance to target the head for extra damage and if you have the perk, and then your char. performs a finisher right at the moment that the perk executes successfully, you'll perform the decapitation finisher. Just trying to think how it might work. Probably a number of requirements need to be met at the moment the finisher initiates, in order to get the slow mo decapitation.

Who really knows what will be in the game, on a mature level, since at this point Beth could be holding back any number of info tidbits from us, so as not to spoil the "wow" factor.

If the demo videos are any indication, there will be all the bloody quishing noises and stabbing effects but no actual limbs or heads flying off in a spray of gore.

Of course, if decapitations make it in, I hope it's like this wonderful Oblivion mod:

Haha, ESRB giving us more new info than Beth themselves!!

Dismemberment are probably limited to "Finishing Moves" and not necessarily dynamic. That's not all bad, keeping such a grizzly death quite rare would preserve it's impact.

At first I thought I saw "Intense sixual themes" in the article's title :laugh:

Who didn't see this coming? I would of canceled my pre-order if it got a E rating <_<

I mean is anyone surprised it received an M? :rolleyes:

Drinking contest sounds cool and so that description of the chained prisoner.

Huh.

Oh yeah, beheadings are in?

For some reason want the game more now.

It's not a real mature game until there is nudity, six, and masterbation.

Or the board was just having an off day lol oh well we are letting this game have E despite everything in it.

But yeah
