Murder in Dragonborn Manor

many parents might not know away around that but am pretty sure there are some who could find a way to unflag them; then kill them. also you can't do that on consoles so they are dead unless you married a naturally essential character like that lion personbat32391 said:
it could be used in deeper meaning, grades are something that will persist with you and the save game will not.
You're welcome. Thanks for the page views.SnakeoilSage said:
Erin is often difficult and occasionally dangerous, but she's rarely outright malevolent, which is enough to keep her relationship with Mol from imploding.Devoneaux said:

Coming from someone who has had their save files deleted by angry siblings, and as a joke by friends...this is not even remotely funny.
Especially when my sister deleted all my Morrowind saves.
Hundreds of hours GONE in an instant.
I still have not forgiven her for that.

No way. Not unless you backed up the saves somewhere and just went with the initial shock, but then restored them later. Besides that there's a whole issue of the violation of trust and personal space. I mean confiscating an item of value and having them earn it back is one thing, but permanently deleting something they've worked so hard on without their prior knowledge won't teach them anything other than that you can't be trusted around their stuff.Gilhelmi said:
I'm actually a little surprised by a lot of these comments. All this talk about this being a breach of trust really makes me question my upbringing.
There was no trust. I damn well knew I was being spied on and that anything I had could be taken away at a moment's notice. Are you not supposed to feel like a prisoner in your home when growing up?
OT: I adore this comic. I would have thought of taking save games as a punishment, but murdering the e-wife? That is cold and absolutely brilliant.

I think there is a difference between taking something away (even if it ends up being permanent) to destroying hours(days) of work put into said item/game.Furbyz said:
Its one thing to sell the game disk away (as it can be obtained later) but to harm save files... I get the sentiment.
This reminds me a lot of an old HAWP episode. Hold on.
Aha! Thought so!
Fucking with people's established worlds is such harmless, psychologically scarring fun.

Of course you are, at least that is the cannon learned from watching shitty American family sitcoms. Other useful teachings include the well established fact that parents know better, kids need to be punished approximately once every second episode, and they will never grow resentment, hatred or any kind of grudge that last more than 22 minutes + commercial breaks.Furbyz said:
What more would you ever need to know about child upbringing?
I do agree with what your saying, (even if not exactly the sarcastic way you are saying it) but you need to understand that I grew up being made very aware that I was extremely lucky to have a door to my room, everything I did was monitored, and yes, I did grow a hefty amount of resentment. Yet, the whole time I felt extremely lucky because all my other friend's had verbally and some physically abusive parents I found out later. I guess what I had might be considered bad if you don't grade on a curb, but I do. I can honestly say I was never slammed through a wall by my folks, and they kept me out trouble.eBusiness said:
I think that's enough.
This brings a whole new meaning to cruel and unusual punishment. But to be honest, I'm a little torn between thinking that this works and it doesn't. It works because she probably has bad grades due to spending countless hours on Skyrim, so this emphasizes the hours wasted and might force her to do better.
On the other hand, a lot of "love" and hours went into this thing. You have just destroyed 7+ hours of forming a connection with your character, a feeling that is like having a bit of your soul mangled in a blender. Sure, it's "just a game", but the idea of an RPG is to be who you are playing. I would not blame her for killing every person in that household. I'd call it justifiable homicide. If you want to argue, take a look at the Critical Miss when Erin meets the original Mass Effect 3 endings. 'Nuff said.
It works, but the end totally does not justify the means.

Remember the whole debacle about the dad who shot up the laptop that his daughter was using?
These responses are the same, a whole lot of people who think they know better with all the preposterous claims of them being able to predict how the person will act/become.
If you're that precogniscient, why don't you predict the lotterynumbers?
You don't know the context, what have gone before this happened or the relationship between these people so shut up! I grow tired of listening to you selfrightegous pricks.
As long as no physical or mental abuse is taking place let people raise their children as they damn well please.
