What about better sheathing animations i want my sword to be on my side or back whichever I choose even though I'm using a bow and I want me shield to be on my back when out of combat. If I'm using javelins i want them on my back too.

I relay want a toggleable pack with animations and the regular amount of current in game space. Like say I'm using a potion out of combat he would take the bag and take the potion out and UN-Cork it drink it and put the vile away. If he is in combat he will swing it around front rip the Cork out with his teeth spit it out chug it and trow the vile at the foe or on the ground. The animation and bag would be there on default but it could be removed and it would look cool and change depending on what you have might be strapped too it and if its snowing snow will accumulate on it and your fur cloak would be under it and your shield might be strapped onto it with a leather thong halfway down. If i hada spear i would carry it in my left and as a walking stick and to deter pickpokets.

NO WISE CRACKS THAT IS WHAT ITS CALLED!!!!


Dule weilding like a spear in the left hand to keep foes at bay and a ax in the right to hack them to peices if they come close. Or any one hand wepon combo.

It wasn't funny until you said that.

It was supposed to make it funny and keep people from being dumb about it.

Alright, I'm going to blow everyones minds with this, after having read many complaints about Oblivion losing content from voice actors.
My idea will allow the following:
Full voice acting.
All of the quests the developers want.
An enormous world.
?????
PROFIT!
And now, my grand idea:
More than one disc.

Why its a pain when instaling having more.

Or washing my armor. Step on it, I'm not paying you to steal my boots and run!


... That was a poor joke :sadvaultboy:

Yeah and sixist. But lets get back to the game and let them make women have effective armor and can someone please comment on my idea the page before where hicerine commented on.

Really??? Really, installing content for maybe 10 minutes would be a pain, to play a game with(probably) hundred's of hours of content.

... Which one? *Laughs hysterically* :lmao:

Opening the thing and puting a new disk in is a pain and have you instaled empire or napolean total war games they literaly take up to 6 hours and my computer is worth 3k but my mouse and keyboard svck. The game also needs to be an ok size so it will work on most computers.

The one near the bottom of page 9.

I'm just gonna take a wild guess and say it won't take much longer than Oblivion's download. And how is opening a disk tray, taking a disk out, putting in a new one, and shutting it a pain?

Ah, yes, the one about the sheathing and potion animations? Some good ideas there, but how much would the potion animation get in the way? Could it be like some .5 second deal, or a full 5 seconds? Perhaps this would warrant a new skill: Potion-Drinking

Just a small pain but it is a pain and how would it help anyway?

Get a faster disc drive? Also, the people who have low-end PC's don't matter as Bethesda is free to make the game as resource taxing as they wish.

A great thing to have would be crossbows. And throwing knives. And more Daedric quests.

Who doesn't want those 3 things + a million more good ones and 10 million more badish ones?

I really only put that so as to stay slightly on topic. So about getting a better disc drive?

It would help by allowing you to install content from extra discs that they couldn't fit on one.
And sorry for double post.

I am 15 and don't have the money and I asked people and it took the same time for them the demo takes 1 hour.

More disks means more content, if it takes a long time i really dont care, ill let it install while i sleep, even if the game took 3 whole days to install i wouldnt care, as long as the game was epic. How long it takes to install means nothing. If you truly want to play the game it shouldnt matter to you. You can do other stuff while its installing, like reading a book, watching tv, or getting the last rays of sun your body will get for 3 months

I am really really really tempted to send tons of links of female spies, assassins, warriors, military leaders, and the like. I'm resisting, but it's there.

If people were saying negative stuff about men that wasn't correct I'd be just as tempted. (I'm a guy)

I think it's unfair that people have go through stuff like this. I mean, yeah, haha, it's a joke, everybody laughs (actually I don't recall ever laughing at sixist stuff). But for every person who says that sort-of stuff there's probably a person out there that believes it and feels like a lesser human being. And it's not like this is an "all-male" environment, which wouldn't really give you the right either, there are plenty of girls on these forums who can (and probably have) happened across what you've said. And people know who I'm talking about when I'm saying "what you've said".

Let's spread understanding, and not some jokes that were never funny in the first place. Ok?

I'd like to point out, though, that Oblivion isn't the kind of game you should be complaining about when talking about female armor. Many of them contour to their body, just like the male ones contour to the male shape. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/File:OB-item-female-Mithril_Armor.jpg isn't much different than http://www.uesp.net/wiki/File:OB-item-Mithril_Armor.jpg. Chaimail armor was the ONLY armor to do that, and the men in Oblivion had "skirts" too.

In fact, I think Oblivion is one of the least sixist games out there. There's a female running the Fighters' Guild, even.

P.S. Darts with the ability to poison them and have the poison last longer than if you put it on something like an arrow.

YO! genius thats mithrill im talking chain mail when you get it right you may see what i mean look at femal vs mail in iron armor

When I meant skirts I meant feminine ones with no leg gear.

You posted mithril because you know with chain you would loose the argument.

Well, it's not as bad as Lost Planet 2; that game had men running around armor-clad from head to toe, yet the women seemed to be running around with more of their bodies exposed than covered up. A little inconsistent, isn't it? I swear, this was the main reason that game is now sitting buried beneath fifty others, including my Super Nintendo games - and I'm a guy, an adolescent six-hungry one. Oblivion's 'sixist' armor pales so much in comparison that you won't even notice it; it simply looks impractical when it comes down to protection.

I'm fine with form-fitting armor/clothes/uniforms/etc. because its only practical to wear something that you can move around in easily. Once it starts looking like an iron bikini though, I lose all respect for the game that implemented that design.

Im having a hard time getting my mind wrapped around what has you guys so worked up. I cant even come up with an argument im so baffled. I spent 10 minutes typing before i even started all >>>> that and i erased it all because my mind just wanst working Its a game thats it. It doesnt need to be 100% practical looking. It can look good since its a game. IRL im sure the women would want just as much protection as the men but in a game it doesnt really matter. If it really bothers you that much im sure you can find a modder to put every woman in the game in a full head to toe knights armor. I just think you should play a game even if it has a few flaws you dont like as long as its a good game. Now this may get me epicly raged out but... how is having slightly revealing armor in a game any different than the women today? They try and look good, for the most part. Looking good gives them an advantage over us ugly men The reason for games having sixier women than men in a game is the same reason women go around in high heels and spend hours on their looks. Because men like it, thus they are more likely to pick two similar games if one has better looking women than the other. IMO men are more likely to go for looks while women look deeper at stuff, be it a game or a man Now this is all my OPINION if you would like to state yours, fine.

Now ill try and get back on topic

I think it would be cool if you could combine magic to create new effects, like fire and ice make steam or something like that and you can use the steam to make a get away it would also be cool if your magic had an effect on the environment, like fire setting trees on fire, ice creating slick patches or freezing things solid, and you could use these to your advantage, like freezing a man solid and then shooting fire at him creating steam and obscuring you from the enemies archers for a while or setting a tree on fire and then bringing it down on your enemies with lightning. Also destructable environments would be awesome

I noticed i only really use ill try and add variety next time

Agreed...
