Wyverns are better than dragons anyway. It's something about them having 6 limbs instead of 4 that throws me off a bit. [sp]kind of like that cow last page but that's not important[/sp]
Also, like the dragons in Skyrim, Wyverns usually have larger wings that feel like they could actually hold it up. More so than usual dragon wings, anyway.
Am I the only one who pities the people making TESO? Anyone who makes a failed game, really.
also why the fuck do they have a crossbow in that trailer
I'm not even sure what to say about this:

Hair bug? Hair bug due to a mod? Transgender Necromancer? Lost a necromancer bet?

No, Dunmer (and Bosmer?) can have a pony tail. Its a thing.

Dual ponytails, though?
(I guess you can't see that in this picture, but he has dual ponytails)

[QUOTE=Hellsten;43162255]I agree with this. It also looks very neat when they walk/crawl around on the ground using the wings, sort of like the proto-drakes in warcraft.[/QUOTE]
oh those were the BEST

He has become more elf than you can possibly imagine.
I've always seen people complain about the look of the dragons yet there is evidence of the wyvern-type being around in TES lore for some time.
I mean, back in Redguard, which was made in 1999, had a wyvern-designed Red Dragon named Nafallilgarus.

The Aspect of Akatosh in Oblivion also follows the Wyvern design. The only visual representation of the four-legged dragons throughout the games is Peryite.

And this fucker looks nothing like any of the dragons we've seen. His form is said to be a jest and mockery of Akatosh anyway.
There may have been some books mentioning four-legged versions, but maybe that means different species of dragons. Since compared to many other dragons the Red Dragons are meant to be more powerful than the normal ones, hence Odahviing and Nafallilgarus being such badasses.

Wyverns definitely look better to me.
I remember my parents telling me about the dragon worm when I was a wee boy, imagine running into one of these in some cave or a swamp like in these pictures..

Wish someone came up with some more mythical creatures for Skyrim, I find dragons being more of an annoyance than an actually scary lately.. so do other things like the trolls or maybe even giants.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still having fun. It's just the diversity that gets to me sometimes.
I've looked for expansion mods in this area but most are just weird contraptions of random items turned into some crazy OP beast thing that completely breaks the immersion for me.
~sigh~
Anyho, designing and coming up with swords.. bit by bit and part by part.
Pommel, handguard, grip and blade.. swords are an interesting subject. Ordered me some books on the matter as well!
I prefer the dragon look. Way more majestic and badass
wyverns are nice tho
Forget about dragons, I want mountain-sized trolls!

The shitty animation/hit detection is throwing me off, let alone the fact that 'the empty throne is calling you to reign' is never going to happen. You'll be fighting an endless war that's never going anywhere.
Up in the east of Holland there is a medieval myth about a Werecow :v?
It probally started out as a joke among farmers but that shit would be rad as fuck as a perk.
Lactate and Dominate.
Fuck pageking, have a screenshot because I really have nothing else to offer :v

What other enemy can you kill by cutting open your backpack?
I still don't get the dislike for one kind of dragon or the other. They all look cool to me. Wyverns make more sense in terms of them having four limbs instead of six, but honestly, it's a fantasy setting, who gives a fuck. There are trolls and giant spiders and ice wraiths and whatever the fuck else, it's not like realism is really a concern here.
I don't dislike dragons but generally wyverns look better to me, they also seem more anatomically believable.
Need quick info.

In the trailer for this sexy, sexy quest mod, there's an interesting looking player animation mod being used? Anyone know what it is?
[QUOTE=UntouchedShadow;43163769]Need quick info.[/QUOTE]
The guy who made this mod is actually a member on here, I am sure he will pop up and tell you.
Uh so suddenly my stamina won't renegerate anymore? It is most assuredly not vampirism or a disease.
Also I have been ranting on and on about my bow paladin, so here are some pictures to show off this over powered bastard.

I find their 'knee-over-elbow' ground movement to be quite intimidating. It just screams "I'm not in my element right now but you're fucked anyway."
Okay looks like the entire game is broken now. Even when loading my first save on this character stamina doesn't regenerate. I also cannot cast any spells.

Ah, many thanks. My modding adventure continues then. I pray everything is still standing by the time I'm done.
My goodness, those animations are pretty damn fancy.
