Bethesda Says People Are Still Buying Horse Armor
- Thread starter Andy Chalk
- Start date
Horse armour and spell tomes are the only DLC I haven't bought for Oblivion.
No real discussion value, just thought I'd put out that vaguely relevant point.

To be fair, it was relatively inexpensive, and a lot of people are okay with spending a bit of extra money to customize their gaming experience. Hell, just look at the success of the XBox Live Avatars and their buyable accessories. Plus, I think a lot of people have downloaded the horse armor just because it became such a big joke. Sometimes, something gains novelty value for being so ridiculous that it becomes legendary; after all, that's why we're finally seeing Duke Nukem Forever.
FYI: since Andy Chalk is Canadian, both "Armor" and "Armour" are correct spellings, according to Canadian English. Since this website caters to a large number of Americans, using "Armor" is still quite legitimate.
I am amused at how the horse armo(u)r DLC degenerated into discussions on British/Canadian/American English usage.

How it is spelled aside; I have to wonder just how Bethesda is getting these numbers. Is there really a large number of people who are buying horse armor as a stand alone package? Or, is it people like me who ended up with it as part of a completion package?
I would be more interested in seeing how they obtained these numbers than anything else.

I genuinely get only the credo of prostitutes in my head when I hear news like this, and I mean this with the greatest respect for what other people think is worth forking over your money:
"Ah well...whatever gets you off."

Well, not *purely* cosmetic. It did double your horse's health, which prevents it from dying so dang often.Andy Chalk said:
Of course, if you get the horse from the assassin's guild, you have an invincible horse, which is even better.
Perhaps you could assist the habitually uninformed. How do you lose a horse? Plunk it down somewhere and wander off? Lead it to water and tell you that if it wants to leave, it must drink?therandombear said:
I dismantled and walked bit away from the horse to get something, when I got back it was gone. Couldn't find the horse anywhere at any city or main base in the mountains.dietpeachsnapple said:
