Don't even need to make a mod. Just decide to eat every 6 hours, for example. Or carry only 60 lb of stuff. If that's your thing.

hm, you'd have to be very disciplined with yourself. it it's not necessary in the game then people would forget it normally. thats the way it goes with games rhetoric. game design isn't for the lulz.

You know what, smartass?

Do you see that wall right in front of you?

Imagine it's a screen, then imagine wonderful real life state of the art graphics, million times better than Skyrim. It's already epic, isn't it?

But we're not done yet. Now imagine combat system ten times more complex than the one M&B has, with all the mounted combat (dragon mounts, bear mounts, mammoth mounts just imagine the possibilities).

Then imagine yourself being in the game, famous and rich and all the bundle of stickss you've met while playing c-rpg begging for spare change while you're in diamond armour on a Fenrir you've tamed yourself during a quest of blah blah blah. And everywhere on the street people shout: Xant! Xant! Here comes the great champion Xant! He's so handsome! He's so well endowed!

It's really something, isn't it? Imagination I mean.

But I want to play the damn game, not to imagine things..

I can't play Skyrim (damn paypal turtles), but it's already stealing my cRPG time because I don't want to play cRPG for some reason x)

I dont understand! can people not play more then one game at a time? :D its like you people can ONLY play Skyrim for 5 hours a day or crpg

Exactly this. Although there's an answer. Most people don't have that much free time. Only one game got me hooked so far that I couldn't play anything else, even when I was free the whole day, and it was cRPG one year ago (between the day I joined and January 2011). Now I don't play many games because I have like 5 projets at once to do. That does change your gaming habits a lot.

However, I don't understand people that have plenty of free time and still play ONE game during two years. There are so many other interesting things to do. Other games included.

I wasn't being a smart ass. But hey, suit yourself. If it's too hard to to restrict yourself from doing things that you dislike doing or actually (gasp!) press "eat" on the food you're carrying every now and then (you want the game to force you...) then, well... continue whining about the game not being a real-life simulator, eh?

Yes you can, but game is still easy.

I always liked realistic games and realistic RPGs are my favourite. That's why I like games made by Piranha Bytes and BethSoft the most.

Skyrim imho is as good as patched Gothic 3 (really good game by todays standards) but I would like something more realistic.

For example, I would like to play RPG without journal, inventory, hp bar, char indicators and without hints. Also quests will have to be non-linear and completely independent of my actions or presence (no silly switches when my char get near). Also dialogs would have to be like in those textual adventures where you type the questions and get the answers (most kids nowadays wouldn't be able get any info at all).

In short: you can't carry more than 40/60/80 kilos and run, without bags you can't do anything else while carrying stuff, you manually put stuff into bags you can't fight properly if your limbs are injured (something fallout has but elder scrolls games don't), you have to sleep/eat/drink (unless you have special perk or are an vampire), you don't have automated journal, instead you have to write stuff you think are important, you ask questions you want not the predefined questions, you're leveling in the background and only feedback you will get is from fighting (no stats page) etc.

Now that would be the game I'll willingly waste a quarter of my day. Being 25 years old and someone who's playing actively video games for 14 years, who wasted 3 months of his life on Elder Scrolls III, who saw major improvement in PC graphics both after ESIII and ESIV came out, I must say that Skyrim is really good game by today's standards.

But actually for me, it's the game which belongs to the past and I'm again saddened that 10 years has passed and nothing worth of mention has happened in gaming industry.

When there's no restricition, you actually have to think about doing it yourself. And you don't think about it in a natural way like "I need to eat", you think about it like "I should consume that food because I want the game to be more realistic", and it ruins the immersion.


Hopefully, mods for removing HUD elements/assistance/quest pointers etc. and food/sleeping related mods will be out very soon. I guess the AI will need a little revamp like always. And by the look of the vanilla game, I think the graphics maniac modders will release texture packs, wheather enhancements, HDR etc. mods within months.

What's great with Bethesda games since Morrowind, is their policy towards mods. They let everyone mod the game the way they like, and help modders with powerful tools, then when they create a new game, they "steal" ideas from some of the best and most popular mods and integrate them into the new game. The mods people use is one of the best way to get feedback. And they really use it. It's very clear between Oblivion and Fallout 3 (if you forget for a moment that Fallout 3 was a terrible Fallout. It's a TES : Fallout 3 and everyones knows it), they took many good ideas from mods.

Problem with TES series is simple, it's damn SINGLE PLAYER. You play against SKILL-LESS BOTS who fight in easy to predict pattern and you as a player can exploit the shit out of their poor ai. This alone make this game virtually unplayable.

I cannot deny. Although I haven't played warhammer for nearly a decade... only because I couldn't afford it anymore.
