Would you ever want to live in Skyrim? : V

As much as I love the game, I started to really think about it the other day and I'd never in a million years want to live there. Such a gloomy life, I'd end up hanging myself within 10 days.

It doesnt follow he conventions of any world that could exist in reality as we know it (even suggesting if magic existed, Gods, Daedra and mythic beasts.

The world just is not meant to support a large growing bipedal population. Its purely for enjoyment.

I already do. We like to call it Norway, though.

I'd live there.

I'd live there if I could also be an Orc, and if I could design my own face/build

Naw, too cold.

Summerset Isle or Valenwood on the other hand... Or Morrowind before red mountain exploded :spotted owl:

Hellll no. I'd get robbed, chased, beat, eaten, or murdered in a heartbeat.

Maybe. But there's too much snow, so.. maybe not. (much prefer places with, hot and humid climate.)

» Fri Dec 16, 2011 12:16 pm

Oh, I would deffinitly live there. Always loved Dragons.

i deffinitly would i would likely live in markarth but i would certainly keep a blade under my pillow markarth is a place of treachery and suspicion. but you wouldnt catch me going out into the wild much to many bandits and huge saber toothed tigers that are built like a large bear.

Hellll no. I'd get robbed, chased, beat, eaten, or murdered in a heartbeat.

Exactly. If I could say just grab an iron sword and carve my path to Godhood then, maybe.

Just imagine coming out of the Winterhold Inn (Frozen Bard I think?) after a night of drinking and just stepping into that empty abyss of snow.

It is a really hostile environment and its freezing.

» Fri Dec 16, 2011 2:08 pm

If I already lived there I wouldn't know any better I suppose.

Would I want to move there now? No, I'd miss my modern comforts too much :user:

» Fri Dec 16, 2011 9:07 pm

I'd live there! Preferably with a little cabin on a cliffside overlooking the river in The Reach.

» Fri Dec 16, 2011 7:24 pm

Oh, I would deffinitly live there. Always loved Dragons.

They love you too, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

» Fri Dec 16, 2011 11:48 am

I would have to go with no. I hate being cold, and that's why I live in a warm area.

» Sat Dec 17, 2011 1:24 am

Potential to become immortal means a yes from me.

Also, dragons and Argonians are a reality there. <3

Well, do you know what is wrong with skyrim these days?

If you don't then you haven't been playing. :smile:

» Fri Dec 16, 2011 1:19 pm

I would love to be an Daedra Lord

Yes, everyone is obsessed with death.

» Sat Dec 17, 2011 1:09 am

In a reality where one swing of a sword could end your life as opposed to 10? I don't think so.

» Sat Dec 17, 2011 1:24 am

Perhaps that's why the suicide rate in Scandinavian countries is pretty high, as my Finnish friend proudly tells me

It seems all gaming worlds are incredibly dark and depressing. Not wanting to assign that attribute to an entire generation I have come to accept that all game developers must suffer from a severe depressive mental disorder. Must be part of what makes them game developers. Cannot remember a game where there was an outcome that was satisfying.

To be honest as much as I like the game skyrim, I think Cyrodil is a much better place to live. Save for mehrunes dagon.

huge saber toothed tigers that are built like a large bear.

They were very bear-like in their build, so it's kinda spot-on. Sabre-toothed tigers weren't like the lithe big cats you see today in the wild.
