The Dragons of Skyrim : V

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:06 pm

I am sorry if something similar has been asked but I would like to know in an update or relatively soon about the implementation of dragons into their newest TES. I looked at the scans and you can see the dragon in the sky (the snowy mountain picture) and we also were given info about dragons attacking cities at their own free will. I would love to have this clarified in a video or a couple more images, am I expecting to think "oh I fancy a new sword" I buy it and walk out to suddenly see a citizen murdered and burning or a dragon flying by attack the town guards or warriors nearby. I would find this very amazing if this is exactly how its implemented in that aspect. I would just to get my hands on some more info on it. Your thoughts the wonder TES forum?

I find that scenario quite possible from the way they described them. According to the GI mag, dragon attacks are random though I'm sure there are times in the main quest that you also have to fight dragons. So I'm guessing dragon fights can happen at any time while you exploring the world or sitting in a city or village.

Yeah this sounds very interesting.
Especially because I am a perfectionist and hate when people die...

I would laugh to see a dragon swoop by you to pick up your Adoring Fan, only to drop him off of Dive Rock.

AHHHH ! THE DRAGONS' WINGS ARE TOO SMALL ! THEY CAN'T POSSIBLY FLY !!! :swear: IT DRIVES ME MAD !!!

.... ah, just needed to get that out of my system. But seriously -- that was one of my biggest fears when I heard that dragons were in -- it just looks so darn stupid.... Thanks for listening

Small wings didn't stop http://fc09.deviantart.com/fs11/i/2006/193/d/a/Dragonite___colored_by_Jackie_Blaire.jpg from flying.

And you do remember the level of realism (believability) in Pokémon, right?

These dragons don't even have wings, they just have nubs that flap REALLY fast. Yep....

On a serious note, why was that the first thing you jumped to when you learned the dragons were returning? "Omg they better not have tiny wings!!!!" My first thought was "Omg, Akavir is attacking!!!!" Though now it doesn't seem that way lol.

Umm, Pokemon was hyper-realistic.

lampshaded in King Edward, Part XII:

Moraelyn asked with a smile, "All right then, I've always wanted to know this - considering the shape of your mouth and teeth, how do dragons manage to speak the humanoid languages so clearly?"

Akatosh paused, and then carefully responded, "Why, in much the same way that we can fly, even though our wings are not naturally strong enough to support such heavy torsos."

You know what else flies despite its wings being too small? The bee.

OT: I too am curious about this, as I find it both interesting, awesome and potentially hilariously annoying,

How nice -- it's magic. That's a perfectly good excuse... :rolleyes:

Luckily, they've got 10 more months to change this.... And in case there's any devs reading: CHANGE THIS !!!
