[QUOTE=hurts;34022993]As is, it's way past early middle ages. Plate armour the way it is in game, even the fairly basic steel plate, wouldn't have been around until the 14th or 15th century. The game is clearly way too different from real life to compare the two on a similar timeline, so it's probably better if we don't try.[/QUOTE] Probably due to the apparent lack of evolution and development on Nirn. Perhaps there isn't any need for them to change, just like the Aboriginals of Australia lived as primitives for tens of thousands of years. Have there ever been any TES games the involved the northern continent where the Nords originated?
[QUOTE=Scarbo;34022940]1500 would be around about the time of the renaissance, when printing press was invented and such. Skyrim still seems a little underdeveloped for that.[/QUOTE] 14th century seems to fit quite well when I read up on it actually. I'll give The Elder Scrolls another 400 years to pass and industry and firearms should make a major appearance. Thanks for correcting me. It's interesting looking some of this stuff up.
I want a shout that adds beards to everybody in the vicinity. [img]http://comedytime.tv/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/nsH6J.gif[/img]
Can anyone recommend a mod that changes the stealth system so that enemies don't stare right at you and ignore you, and a mod that works well with ENBSeries that makes the game more "darker" at night?
[QUOTE=Scarbo;34022940]1500 would be around about the time of the renaissance, when printing press was invented and such. Skyrim still seems a little underdeveloped for that.[/QUOTE] It has to have printing presses though, seeing as there are (relatively) mass produced books.

[QUOTE=Gilboron;34023225]It has to have printing presses though, seeing as there are (relatively) mass produced books.[/QUOTE] I was always under the assumption it was meticulously copied over and over again by dedicated scholars, as there'd be quite a lot of money in it for them.
[QUOTE=V_Buns;34022337]How exactly does this [sp]Black Azura Star[/sp] work? Do I just do the regular soul gem procedures?[/QUOTE] If you haven't figured it out by yourself yet, it's basically an [sp]unbreakable black soul gem, which can also hold animals souls and the like too, regardless of what that silly Nelacar guy says[/sp].

In the 200+ years since Morrowind/Oblivion technology hasn't made any advances, the only thing with a major change is magic. The Elder Scrolls universe is forever stuck in the same period of technology.
Why is Farkas following me all the time? :v:
What the fuck! I was strolling around The Pale, right near Winterhold clearing out dungeons and forts and shit and I see a group of people getting mauled by a bear, I run in there and dice the bear up and look to see if it was hunters, bandits, imperials, or whoever. It was the fucking companions, Farkas, Ria, and Torvor. In fucking Winterhold region. That's not even near the odd part. I nearly shit myself when I saw Torvor, he was half embedded in the ground, nude and spazzing out while following wherever Farkas and Ria went. Every time I try talking to him he just says "Ahhh my old drinkin' buddy, let's go grab some mead!" Now you may be wondering "Why would you freak out over a glitch." I fucking killed off Torvor accidentally almost immediately after completing the Companion quests while collecting the Gauldur amulet fragments. I hadn't seen him in like 2 weeks. He was still nude from when I looted his corpse, strangely enough the only time I've felt bad about looting someone. Me and Torvor had slain dragons and cleared atleast 15 dungeons together, he was badass. Nadja Stonearm only lasted me like 2 caves, but I was happy to watch that loudmouth bitch die. The only time I've ever felt bad for killing a character in a game, and you throw him back at me all mangled up in a glitch, asking me to go drinking with him? Fuck you Skyrim. [i]Fuck you.[/i]
Quick question: [sp]Stormcloaks or Imperials?[/sp] and why?
Imperials because ulfric is a fucking racist cunt
Is there a way to turn off anti-aliasing in Yadda's config? I'm trying to get some performance boosts, and I never like having AA on, anyway.
I just got banned from the nexus because some douchebag admin took time to go and check my account if it was the same IP as another account I had and ban both. I had two accounts because the first one was banned from the chatroom after I gave my opinion about a mod (while the guy who made the mod asked for people's opinion). Derp.
[QUOTE=ThermalArc;34023920]Imperials because ulfric is a fucking racist cunt[/QUOTE] Imperials are cooler in general (Especially because the main guys voice (What's his name again) is voiced by the greatest voice actor ever) But they lack that epic feeling of being the underdog of the war.
All guards used to be an adventurer like you, until they all took an arrow in the knee....

I tried to film a panning timelapse, I don't think it went over as well as it could have been, but I think it's worth posting. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEJa_XXezpA[/media] [del]It's still processing[/del]
[QUOTE=mikester112;34024232]General Tulius, badass fucker gave me a daedric sword.[/QUOTE] Lucky bastard. All I got was glass. Twice. And am I the only one gets promoted and hears "here's a new weapon to signify your new rank" only to receive a Dwarven Shield or something similar?
I thought [sp]the blades were cool, then they're like "YO GO KILL PAARTHURNAX". Lost all repect for them. Fuckers. Paarthurnax is the coolest dragon ever[/sp]
[QUOTE=Crpto2007;34024215]All guards used to be an adventurer like you, until they all took an arrow in the knee....[/QUOTE] Get out, now.

They won't even let you into the blades unless you serve THEM.

I found the Skyrim equivalent of Fallout: New Vegas' Badass Test. [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/208/2012010200034.jpg/][IMG]http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/324/2012010200034.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

J'zargo = best companion.
[QUOTE=redBadger;34023872]Quick question: [sp]Stormcloaks or Imperials?[/sp] and why?[/QUOTE] It's really strange how the Stormcloak/Imperial thing works out for me. I like the Stormcloak cause and am sort of sympathetic because they are the underdogs, but every individual Stormcloak i've met ingame has been, at the very least, annoying. And many of them -- including Ulfric, their leader -- are huge wet troll cocks. Empire, on the other hand, has a cause that sounds ominous and evil but most Imperial characters are actually reasonable, decent people. [sp]In a way, the Empire is almost objectively the "good guy" as they're trying to stop Skyrim from being taken over by a bunch of violent, racist/ethnocentric rebels[/sp]
