Your Skyrim Home : V

» Wed Aug 10, 2011 8:37 am

Where would you want to live in Skyrim? I cant imagine having just one home, but to be able to build a home of any particular style be it tower/hut/castle in any place in the Skyrim world (within reason) would be awesome. Kinda like growing your own Telvanni Tower in one of the three designated build spots... Who wouldnt build a tower on the highest peak of Skyrim...

You dont think you will be able to select the type and build your own home in the game? If there is an economy in the Skyrim would surely there would be development that reflects the economy like decorative architecture or crumbling masonry.

I wouldn't get to excited by the economy yet. Todd said it's only a light touch in how they have developed it.

As for where I want to live:

In a log cabin somewhere, isolated in the middle of a forest, near a lake/stream and surrounded by the wildlife.

I'd like to live in the wilds, with a bedroll over my back.

Probably stay in the College of Winterhold, and inns, until I am wealthy enough to buy the most lavish home in the game. Even then it will be more a storage space and trophy room than a home.

up in the snowy mountains in a cosy cabin warmed by a big hearth!

I would live in large almost castle like house in the plains/tundra with my pets and trophys from my travels.

A mead hall, to live up in a place of which no one thought someone could live. I may have nicked the decription from a folk song. :whistling:

Not bad, this poll. I would never have thought you would include my choice, but you did. #3 here.

My first character will be a sneaky sort, so she'll prefer a dark lair.

i honestly have no idea...

since dragons were confirmed to be able to attack towns/cities... im worried that my house, and my wife, will be torched to ashes.

that would svck to have tons of artifacts and awesome treasures, and my wife... get melded into the streets for everyone to walk on.

so... i want to live where dragons dont attack, i guess. :shrug:

I wouldn't mind setting up a little camp where ever i pleased. Pack up in the morning and continue on to my destination. I don't hold onto a lot of items as i like the "traveling merchant" thing, sell my loot in the next town and continue on. This game is going to be amazing just purely on the things i've seen at E3 and such. If it's a slight improvement on Oblivion i play it over New Vegas and maybe even Mass Effect.

At least you'd be able to remarry... I mean you could force the issue and lure your wife to a Dragon hot zone. Umm, seriously though - I think it was in the fan interview on this forum that it was said destruction of a building would not really occur because it would be an issue if it were a building where Quest NPCs resided, so Dragons attacks may only leave cosmetic damage... if they dont actually pick up your wife and drop her from up high she should be fine (what a screenshot that would make!).

Whatever home has the most chests. I'm a pack rat, and need the room for all the assorted goodies I find in my travels. Barring that, something with a dash of color and a hint of menace. :celebration:

In the nearest inn and in the Companions' Hall(?) in the beginning, and later when I'm filthy rich I'll probably run around buying every buyable house in the game.

Id like a wizards tower.
Preferably in a Dwemer ruin.

I'm going to mod the Skyrim equivelent of Tenpenny Tower, and we shall be bigots. :thumbsup:

My main wouldn't mind a nice home along a lake, with the sun rising from the other side of the lake. Might have to check around the lake so I don't get attack by a troll on my stroll. Ofcourse for my roleplay purpose it depended on their attatude. Like my nord prefers a nice city home, with her kills and prizes littered across the rooms.

Up in the snowy mountains.

ahhh...fresh air...

» Wed Aug 10, 2011 5:34 am

I want to live in the most extravagant castle in Skyrim, which would be built wherever I choose.
