Civil War Overhaul made it extremely difficult for town sieges plus i assume of my other mods that i used for Warzone, spams the shit out of the soldiers so there is a crapton of AI and the game lags out.

Don't be. Mod's scripting was shit. Caused terrible crashes, slowdown and save corruption bugs incessantly if you had any mod other than Warzones.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I had another small, yet great moment with Interesting NPCs again. I just completed the Cidhna Mine quest and I came out a half naked man covered in blood with a shiv in my hand and the head of a false king in another.

I have a chat with the Silver-blood guy and when he's done, Qa'dojo just casually strolls by. He goes...

<Awesome Khajit accent> "Ah, it's you. You got out of the mine? It looks like it was a good idea to give yourself up."

Oh man, I was just smiling at him.

The personal space, it's violated, and it effects me just looking at it.

Looking at what mods have cropped up for Skyrim, there's some neat "whole new world" ones. So I was looking into more subtle things that could revamp the experience when I found...well, I found the darkside of skyrims modding community. It scared me.

Oh neat, a mod that makes it so when defeated your character is enslaved by the person instead of killed. That's a cool idea. You could have it so you do little missions to earn their trust. You could get a whole cool arc going in your game where your character either tries to escape, earns their trust so they can escape, or maybe even is broken by them and works for them willingly. Oooh, if a vampire beats you then you could become cattle and either escape, are drained dry or earn enough trust that they turn your character into their childe! That could be pretty cool!

Turns out it's basically a sex mod where your character is raped every 5 seconds 0_o...Goddamnit, Skyrim modding community! >.<

Oh I've been aware of it, and I've seen it floating around, but this is the first time I've ever really looked at it. My mistake was devoting brain cycles to processing it's existence.

I miss the innocent days of Morrowind, the worst I ever really paid attention to was Better Bodies (which allowed for some very cool armour mods, and being charged by club-welding tackle-out cultists was too childishly amusing for me to be disturbed), the prostitutes of Morrowind Comes Alive (which only really caused the screen to black out and the sleep menu to appear). For slavery, there were mods like Vampiric Embrace, which allowed for slavery if you were a vampire (Vampires have cattle, after all), but it didn't really have a sexual component unless you went out of your way and imagination to add one.

Oh hell no. Heck, in the default game you talk with a being that raped the god of rape, that's a thing that happens. And there were definitely mods that crossed lines, I just don't remember any interactive sex mods xD I was more referring to my own innocence at the time :P

So, this random thought just struck me: What if the Numidium is a very literal version of Hobbes' Leviathan?

Quote from: Hobbes, Leviathan, Introduction
NATURE (the art whereby God hath made and governs the world) is by the art of man, as in many other things, so in this also imitated, that it can make an artificial animal. For seeing life is but a motion of limbs, the beginning whereof is in some principal part within, why may we not say that all automata (engines that move themselves by springs and wheels as doth a watch) have an artificial life? For what is the heart, but a spring; and the nerves, but so many strings; and the joints, but so many wheels, giving motion to the whole body, such as was intended by the Artificer? Art goes yet further, imitating that rational and most excellent work of Nature, man. For by art is created that great LEVIATHAN called a COMMONWEALTH, or STATE (in Latin, CIVITAS), which is but an artificial man, though of greater stature and strength than the natural, for whose protection and defence it was intended; and in which the sovereignty is an artificial soul, as giving life and motion to the whole body; the magistrates and other officers of judicature and execution, artificial joints; reward and punishment (by which fastened to the seat of the sovereignty, every joint and member is moved to perform his duty) are the nerves, that do the same in the body natural; the wealth and riches of all the particular members are the strength; salus populi (the people's safety) its business; counsellors, by whom all things needful for it to know are suggested unto it, are the memory; equity and laws, an artificial reason and will; concord, health; sedition, sickness; and civil war, death. Lastly, the pacts and covenants, by which the parts of this body politic were at first made, set together, and united, resemble that fiat, or the Let us make man, pronounced by God in the Creation.

I wasn't there for Numi-dum-dum. Does it bear any particularly striking resemblances to Hobbes' analogy, or could we just as well say that about all golems or magic servitors ever..?
