That might be because there is little character interaction beyond violence. I hope they add more character interaction!

It could be that nudity, like attributes and spears, is viewed as superfluous to the artistic design of Skyrim. The world can have the artist's desired flavor without nudity. I wouldn't accuse an author of being warped for not portraying nudity in his stories. Some use nudity and some don't. It is their choice to make, and I respect it.

Meh. TES + nudity is a no-go for me. Too busy killing massive dragons, being an assassin, etc. to worry about floppy, pixelated nvde people.

I haven't read all of this thread (because it's 8 pages and I'm lazy), but I'm on the "it's the culture in which the game was made" side. I think six and nudity can/could be handled well in games, but whether it will be received well by institutions like the rating board is a whole different matter. As it is, six and sixuality has always been represented in ES somewhere (and fairly well I think), so I'm not too fussed by it.
You can see how different places view six and stuff a bit in films I think - a film like The Sweetest Thing was rated 11 in Denmark, 15 in the UK, and R (which I think means you should be over 17) in USA.

Interesting to note maybe, but I think the last time I saw complete nudity in a game, it was when I was looking at brutally beaten dead women in LA Noire.

The last time I saw complete nudity in a game, it was Daggerfall. I did not find it disturbing or titillating. Not sure how I'm going to feel about heads rolling around--though I suspect "horrified" might enter in there somewhere. Won't stop me from buying the game, but do feel that morals are twisted here.

Not seeing naked people makes the world less believable? Sorry, I can't see how that works. The effect of such is so small that surely it isn't worth lamenting. I still don't see how seeing a pair of [censored] or someones ass benefits the gameplay.

How strange would it be to live in a world where no one knew how they got there, or what they looked like without all their clothes on? Yes it does make the world less believable, if even a little. And as for the gameplay, How much stronger of an emotional response would you get if you saw a naked female running away from bandits vs a clothed one. Would you have a stronger desire to help? What about if you saw a drunken man stumbling out of a tavern with no clothes on? Comedic value anyone? Maybe a nobleman was stripped of all his worldly posessions by a thief, and if you help him find some clothes, he opens up new quest possibilities for you. Plenty of gameplay possibilites here.

I prefer no nudity. IMO You want nudity? Find the right woman, marry her, and then you will have it.

Lots of people are not getting the debate on this thread.....
