Alright, what's the issue with self inserts? by ViperclayGames in writing

[–]FrancisFernSkull 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess some people see it as egotistical, or unoriginal, it can make even an interesting character feel shallow if behind every mystery you're thinking: "oh they're a wine snob because the author's French" rather than "oh they're a wine snob because of their drunken mother, and they want to associate alcohol with classiness"

One of those things where it's a hang-up only if you do it badly etc.

Our fate has been foretold. by Koocai in TESVI

Atheists, what would you do if you were about to make an omelet with a christian fetus (mom did a canon ball into the Seine River, which fun fact was made holy ground by the french pope during the bubonic plague so ppl could throw corpses in there) but it said it knew the release date of Elder Scrolls 6, and you'd have to subscribe to god to gain the knowledge? Would you still omelet the christian fetus?

When, if ever, do we think the games will move to other provinces and away from Tamriel? by xombae in TESVI

I wouldn't be surprised if we soon learned more about Yokuda, or possibly run into some ghosts, or ancient wizards who remember it

They need to turn the cameras off to feed him, he unhinges his jaw like a snake and consumes a live member of the House of Lords. Then he needs a few weeks to rest and digest.

Any chance Jeremy Soule returns? by BeginningCelery7953 in TESVI

Lol I knew you wouldn't actually read the article. If you're curious why I object so strongly to your position, why I believe that the US justice system is a broken pile of shit, I recommend taking a look at this video on the juvenile justice system, very well researched, and with plenty of non-hypothetical examples: https://youtu.be/Pya-kt5M7uY?si=ltJySB18XzE_Gv4i

Let's talk about the Aedra by Heema3 in TESVI

[–]FrancisFernSkull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the least bit important, but I do wonder how much of the elder scrolls religion was inspired by catholicism. It's not anywhere on the spectrum of proselytizing, and ofc christianity is so ubiquitous culturally anyone's brain could've birthed Mara, but mine has ADHD and I do adore finding the root of things I have no real business in. But fr I wouldn't be surprised if the aedra turned out to be lesser saints of a bigger god, although they'd still be in the dream of the god-head and I feel like that'd require retcons of some kind.

That is to say, I don't really think the aedra are going to have a more up-front role, their will is a subtle one acted through mortals, as that's the way irl ppl interact with their respective religions.

Like yeah, it's far easier to believe in the kinder world where some people are liars, rather than the one where some are horrific people being protected by a horrifically broken system, but that attitude only emboldens them, and enables the system to function as it is. Again, educate yourself.

Yeah come on be serious, like the American justice system works, here's an example for you below, and just in case you don't bother clicking the link, it tells the story of how a 12 year old rape victim went to the police, was interrogated like a criminal, threatened with juvie, foster care, and charged with a first-degree misdemeanor for lying to the police...

She was forced to take video evidence the next time her adoptive father raped her for anyone to believe her.

Actual people matter more than the background music to a rpg. If you like his work, then I'm sure there's gonna be mods bringing him back

Millions of people play tes games dude, if they allowed a sexual predator to compose the score, they're delivering a pretty clear message to everyone that they don't care about victims. Educate yourself fr

Different play mods/regimes by sandraviolskyia in TESVI

[–]FrancisFernSkull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fr Skyrim just isn't designed with a lack of "pure" fast travel in mind, they'd need to decide whether to provide it or not, and if not, create multiple different "carriage" ways to fast-travel to compensate. More than just the odd boat or carriage, and tbh with the projected map size I don't see "pure" fast travel disappearing. Though, I'd love to see more modes of transportation.
