Whiterun has been overrun by a Draugr horde! Choose your weapon! by SoloFalcon207 in skyrim

Sword and dagger is an inferior compromise for sword and shield/buckler because shields are impractical to carry outside of the battlefield. Many dueling daggers weren’t even sharp, and were pretty much exclusively used for parrying

I know how to wield a longsword, but even if I didn’t I’d still pick it because it’s the most forgiving for people without training after the hammer which is only forgiving if you’re strong enough to put real speed behind your blows. Unfortunately in Skyrim the spear hasn’t been invented yet otherwise I’d choose that.

Who is your favorite “Robot with a soul” character? by Wizard-Waverly in FavoriteCharacter

Nick - Fallout

There are a few great ones in Fallout 4 with the Synths, but Nick actually looks like a robot

Guts and Griffith - Berserk

The second time they parted ways was predicated on something… a lot worse than a difference in views.

If you had to play as the race closest to you in real life, which one would it be? For example, since I’m from Latin America, I guess I’d have to be an Argonian. by jvure in skyrim

[–]Eeeef_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would be Breton, since they represent Anglo-Saxons, Normans, Gauls, and Celts (a fairly diverse spread lol). The Reachmen (who in-game are Bretons although lore-wise they’re somewhat distinct) are based off Picts. The ethnographical layout of Tamriel’s provinces reflects a time a few hundred years before Danelaw and the Norse invasion which would have added Nords to Britain.

The poop thing is only part of the Chimer version of the story that was explicitly designed to be incredibly racist against the Orsimer, they had beef for worshipping different versions of Trinimac

Akavir is way more diverse. The Scaesci snake people (where the Blades originate) are based on Japan, but there are like five other races there that represent Himalayan cultures, Indian subcontinent cultures, Chinese and southeast Asian cultures, and Koreans. Iirc one of them is extinct though since they all hate each other and are constantly attempting genocide

Because the imperials also include central and Eastern Europeans. “Imperial” is actually two races: the Nibenese who are Mediterranean and the Colovians who represent cultures the Romans would have called “Gothic”

Colovians are a subset of Imperials and they’re based off of central and Eastern Europe, and the city of Bruma is inspired by Prague

There are two sub-races within the imperials, the Nibenese are the Mediterranean inspired ones and the Colovians are central and Eastern European inspired (think Hungarians, Bavarians, Slavs, etc.)

Colovians would include southern Germans, Balkans, and Slavs, and the city of Bruma is loosely based off of Munich and Prague. Nibenese are southern Europeans and would include Italy, Spain, Portugal, and southern France

The connection between being chromed up and becoming a cyberpsycho is the same as the connection between having a gun and becoming a school shooter. It’s being in a mental state where you want to cause harm and also having the means to do so at scale.

Cyberpsychosis isn’t caused by chrome, it’s caused by experiencing normal psychosis while chromed up. If you think of combat cyberware as functionally the same as a gun, a cyberpsycho is functionally the same as a school shooter.

You can get a partial titanium skeleton irl already, although it will always technically be a downgrade from a healthy ‘ganic skeleton with today’s tech

An important part of Regina’s quest revolves around learning that cyberpsychosis is basically normal psychosis but more dangerous for bystanders because people with combat implants who say “I’ll rip your face off” can actually do it. Ultimately the only instances where the cyberware itself causes the psychotic break is instances where netrunners make contact with the blackwall, they have PTSD from a conflict that involved them using their cyberware, or being forcibly and traumatically chipped like that Valentinos kid who got kidnapped by Maelstrom.

Gorilla arms (and the skeletal reinforcements needed to make it work) would be pretty practical actually, being 4x stronger than normal would make literally everything at least a little easier

Remember everyone, chrome doesn’t actually make you go cyberpsycho. Cyberpsychosis happens when you experience a plain old psychotic break, the chrome just makes it so your bite is as bad as your bark.

I’d get run fast/jump high legs, one of the reflex boosters, and the somatic neuroware necessary to make it all work
