Critical Miss: The Guide To Skyrim Modders: Part 1

[Something Amyss]

Love the expression on the sociopath's face. On an related note, I find it funny that some people claim that not being able to kill children breaks their immersion in a game where your health recovers within a couple of minutes and can be done instantly by eating food, you don't need to eat, drink or use the toilet to live, one tiny bit of addition weight makes you go from normal movement to very slow and you can rest by standing in one place.

I may mock the "It ruins my immersion!" stuff, but I actually think the "they're totally asking for it!" argument for killing kids is kinda worse.

UI is so annoyingly horrible indeed. Now I understand why. Are crab people truly biggest demographics already though?

The sales numbers are roughly

Crab People 38%
Deep Ones 35%
Humans 25%
Other 2%

The Deep Ones pirate the shit out of their games, though, so they ARE a bigger audience with that taken into consideration.

I see, I see.

Makes sense.

Now obviously the real queston is: Why on earth would you pick up 47 goblets?

Because there's going to be a cave based on goblets, and you're gonna go there and be all "why didn't I pick up all those goblets?"

I actually made a very similar argument in a thread about the child killing mod a while back. Long story short don't waste your breath. There's no arguing with these people about why some people might think there's something wrong with modding a game to kill children.

Olaf's Cat: Epic useable item of doom!!!

But yeah, I've already got a lot of texture mods and a better UI mod, but it's not perfect.

I don't hugely care, I mean the game is great regardless, but honestly now that I have basically all the textures overhauled, the game looks quite significantly nicer IMO.

I'm using everything from terrain to foliage to water to clothes are armour and weapons.

The kids in skyrim deserve it and you know it!

It is just cruel that the console players cant give those smug little assholes what they deserve, its like they KNOW they are invulnerable so they have a free pass to run their damn mouths!

I think they are actually doing it on propose, they made them invincible and they made them assholes, it's not a coincidence.

Kids generally think their invincible. That's why they don't care about "being nice with their elders".

Anyway, I don't care about killing children. But they shouldn't be able to send hitman/assassin for you, though. And it would be nice to be able to intimidate or persuade kids to not talk about the gruesome murder you've just done in front of them

I don't know if I want to make that last panel my icon, or keep the image of an imp gnawing my tonsils out.

I agree, after finally getting the game I was pleasantly surprised by the lack of the annoyingness of the children after hearing 101 complaints on this forum about them, guess I shouldn't have been surprised though given the general hatred around here.

Alas yes, when you get down to it most of the pro-killing people's arguments are basiscally "cos I want to", morality or taste be damned.

The sociopath made me laugh in real life, mainly cause I have that mod... and because that's the actual look on my face...

 

[The_root_of_all_evil]

I'm amazed the nude modders didn't get any attention. The work they do on a form they only know in passing is amazing.

 

[Jonluw]

I can't for the life of me understand people who think the user interface is oh so horrible...

It works just fine, and the star-sign system is visually very gratifying.

 

[Fr]anc[is]

I dont even need to have played the game or seen any videos to know those kids are obnoxious little shits nobody likes dealing with. I hope they have fun with the Little Lamplight kids in hell

 

[Soviet Heavy]

Call me sadistic, but that's the face I use when I do a town killing spree in Skyrim and I pile the bodies in the middle of town.

Well, we ARE talking about sociopaths. It's probably "their constant existence is annoying to me, so I want to kill them."

Alas yes, when you get down to it most of the pro-killing people's arguments are basiscally "cos I want to", morality or taste or damned.

But what if I want to roleplay an amoral sociopath?

You're ruining my immersion, dammit!

I LOLed. Literally.

You're a crab-person, aren't you? CONFESS!

 

[scorptatious]

That fourth panel made me laugh out loud. XD

 

[DTWolfwood]

Well i dear say anyone who haven't at least thought about murdering the kids in Whiterun has the patience of a saint lol

Those little buggers were put there to test you i swear; Bethesda being a giant troll.

What? No I'm not. I am just genuinely content with the inventory system. Aside from the lack of a quick-scroll option, that is.

Craab people, Craaab people. Taste like crab. Talk like people.

 

[kebab4you]

I'm slow, can someone explain the sociopath for me? :s
Edit: Derp nvm, it hit me now xD

 

[Captain Pirate]

Ahahaha, so true.
Oh, and everyone look at the second to last slide; "Gem Of Power"'s description: This Gem has power.
Oh Critical Miss, you so witty.
