Disgusting. They gave up and didn't even try to hide it.

>>383534986
jesus christ, if THAT is what convinced you skyrim is bad; the game has many other glaring problems. i think is because the engine it runs on cannot adhere to any imagination proposed its way.

Just throwing words together isn't an argument, anon

>Skyrim
>Want to join mages guild to get slow-motion shout
>"Cast Firespell!"

That is some foul word spaghetti you've got there, anon.

i realised after i posted. havent slept and listening to heavy metal to boot, so my brain isnt top notch.
i think i should have dropped proposed. the "cannot adhere to any imagination" makes sense, atleast to me.

Admissions are down. The student to teacher ratio at Winterhold is like 1 to 2. Skyrim's political break with the Thalmore has caused their accreditation to be pending "Under Review" for the time being. Dragon attacks within Skyrim are causing prospective students to make choices other than pursuing higher education, saving their money to rebuild from Dragon Attacks and reimburse their local communities from robberies by the Dragonborn.

Either you're not a native English speaker or you've got some brain damage

>>383538054
Either that or the engine can't handle more than twenty NPCs in one place.

>>383538056
Imagination: the faculty or action of forming new ideas, or images or concepts of external objects not present to the senses.

Adhere: believe in and follow the practices of.

engine cannot adhere to any imagination = the engine fails to achieve/create the desired outcome that the developers imagined an had in mind.

>brain damaged
maybe, but it does make sense to me.

>became the leader of the fighter's guild (or warriors whatever it was) within 3 hours of joining them
And then I stopped playing

DELET THIS

There is a mod that adds big random battles that have easily over 100 people all fighting. The issue is that each person needs unique dialog and voice acting.

I love Oblivion but it had the worst quest ever. Mystery of Harlun' s Watch. Hated those Trolls.

You'd think that people who have the ability to use magic, an utterly limitless source of power, they would hone that ability in order to protect their family/home/city from fucking dragons, instead of being a fag

Toddposting has never been funny.

>Need to do x amount of atrocities to get into KKK
>KKK fucks up the world
>Arguably the most hated institution in America
>Now getting in is just signing an online contract which consists of a checkbox
...
>Need to do x amount of unholy potentially world destroying tasks to get into Cyrodiil mage's guild
>Mage's college fucks up the world irreversibly (WOW SURPRISE!!), everything is different for generations because of it
>Mage's college is now extremely easy to get into because they're starved of members because not a damn soul wants to be associated with that shit
wao op rly joggin'o my noggin'o

>>383538687
(You) win. Oblivion is better. See you in the next Fallout thread.
>>383538464
Now define proposed and explain how it fits, then go on to explain why you described the engine as scient.

I don't get what you don't get. Did you think Cyrodiil and Skyrim were the same place?

Nice damage control, todd

>>383536083
>>383540936
Look out everyone we've got a copy cat on the loose.

>>383544368
I feel like those reasons are just a cop out though. Winterhold college is fucking disappointing. No amount of retarded reasoning can save it.

3 (THREE) students in an ENTIRE country

>>383544894
In a country of Nords, yes. Not to mention on the heels of the college blowing up Winterhold. Is there a race in the entire Elder Scrolls that reviles magic as much? Even the Orcs take to it better.

>>383540832
Nords see magic as dark elf trickery, and not fit for normal human use.

At least thats what Todd said to justify an awful magic system.

>>383538871
Not really. I mean new Vegas and Morrowind handled the issue just fine, and with completely different solutions

what are the essential mods if i want to start playing oblivion

>>383534986
nords aren't into magic so it makes sense their schools weren't competitive

>>383545021
>>383545995
I get the justification for it, but it's literally just the devs being fucking lazy and putting out the least effort they can

>>383547393
that is true
bethesda is the epitome of lazy design

>>383547518
>all the interesting concept art for FO4 like the biomechanical institute weapons and the old lady riding on a Mr. Handy
>they threw it out the window so they could reuse old animations

>>383544368
That would hold, except that

a) all of the quest lines are horseshit, invalidating any claim of creative ingenuity

b)the quest line is shit

>>383536083
Hey for all the dumb niggers who didn't understand your post.
I understood that you were trying to say that Skyrim as an Engine is bad for authoring tools to make a different game of a different setting.
