I always thought the Dibella Temple quest really creepy from that perspective. Getting a child and basically selling her off to be a sex slave for the rest of her life? No thanks, I think I'll pass.

I don't recall paying the father... IIRC he said it's such a privilege he'd be happy to let her go with you, it's just unfortunate that she got kidnapped first.

There is a quest which you need to find proof about a woman who worships Dibella frequently, with three different male fellow worshippers. I would let her worship in peace if there was an option to do that. I love religious people :P

By the way, is it just me or male Argonian voice sounds very charismatic? It doesn't sound reptilian one bit. I don't know how a reptilian humanoid would sound like though.

Her Dibella statue seems to be a special one too. Others are pure golden, hers has ivory parts. Too bad it seems to be very light - won't stay still in my home.

I love how this is apparently worse than the mass murder you regularly commit in the game :P

Think of the children!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111

On a more serious note, to be fair, most of the people you kill likely are trying to kill you, so it's self defense.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

I am fine with nudity in games, so long as it represents realism, in Daggerfall I think it was done quite well.
Why are you guys complaining about Skyrim mods? Look at TesNexus
Oblivion is MUCH worse!!!

Skyrim is far too dumbed-down and easy, the body-part hit detection should still be intact from fallout, if you use the CK you will see TONNES of Fallout leftovers, you can even make muzzle flashes with missile weapons!

I also see MANY VATS leftovers, I am lead to believe that the finisher system uses VATS as a base, it even sounds like it uses the same slo-mo sound tech!

Skyrim with VATS. Good or bad?

Potentially awesome, but horribly biased towards the player.

I'm guessing they didn't bother to remove any of the Fallout leftovers because this code base is going to go towards Fallout 4.

You know what would be another useful mod...
One that makes Villager and Farmers of such realize that they are Villagers not Warriors and RUN AWAY FROM THE BANDITS CARRYING BIG SHARP SWORDS WHILE THEY ONLY HAVE A DINKY DAGGER AND NO FUCKING ARMOUR!!!

Gah...

But the villagers have right to think that, most of them are invincible.

About fallout leftovers, these kill move animations seem so sloppy. It's so zoomed in, I can't see anything. Also it's so fast, I don't understand what's happening. It's like they did it for the sake of doing it.

Considering there were references to Alteration and Illusion magic in the New Vegas GECK, I'm not surprised to see scraps of VATS. It just keeps getting built upon until they scrap a large portion and rewrite it... but I think they are going to reach a point where they can't maintain it easily anymore.

The timing of the animations on sync kills has never looked right to me. It's trying to do this Matrix slow-time thing before speeding up, but the timing has always looked wrong, during both parts.
