Skyrim Child Killing Mod

[hazabaza1]

I second the "about damn time" motion, I just wish Bethesda moved on past that dumb-ass weaksauce stance on children. It's so pathetic, dead children literally don't exist in their games, even though they're supposed to. For instance, there is some lighthouse, where, reading the journals, you find out that a family of 4 was killed. You see the mom dead, you see the mom dead, children? Not a fucking hint of 'em.

I mean come on, man, don't have it in then, for fuck's sake, if you're that concerned about what a dumbass reporter on Fox could say.

Go to the Falkreath cemetery.

Played enough of that game to last me a lifetime, could you tell me what I'd find if I went there?

Mother and father grieving over their dead daughter who has practically been ripped to shreds.
There's also a ghost kid in... Markarth, I think it is.

I'll be using this mod to reenact Revenge of the Sith, albeit with slightly more justification that they were bugging me before. Don't really see what the fuss is about.

The problem is that the media blows games, like GTA and Bully, far out of proportion. Can you imagine if a "child killing simulator" was released on the market, where you could decapitate, immolate, and bludgeon small children to death? Bethesda would never do it because that would be terrible for publicity. It would also prompt for someone outside of the game industry to rate the maturity of games ala MPAA. It's just not worth it.

If you do the quest and explore the tunnels, you find the dead daughter in the basement but the character model is an adult.

Ghost =/= dead. You don't actually ever see the corpse of the girl, do you?

You see her dug up coffin. If memory serves correctly, I think you can loot it, but that may be a different thing.

WHy you need that? Oo Seriously, why would you want a mod to kill children? To be able to? THat's really weak. And im not gonna go for moral stuff here - it's silly, it's a game after all - but why you concider this such a flaw that you write a mod for that and see this as a handycap?

Because most of the children in Bethesda games are little shits. Immortal little shits.

Also, if I want to wipe a town off the face of the map, then I want to wipe a town off the face of the map. You know?

I will happily kill a Deer for its fur and meat, but as child-fur (skin) as little to no resale value and Greggs has started using battery Farmed Children in their "Meat" pies, there is no point in hunting them now.

which is why I never even thought about killing Children in Skyrim.

Edit: maybe Bethesda didn't include killable children because their being Fannies and avoiding bad press. Maybe, like sane people, they are not comfortable with killing children on-screen.

Bethesda needs to get some guts with "M" rated games, kids die like anyone else, especially in generes like horror and dark fantasy. Other games like "Fallout 2" allowed you to kill kids if you wanted to, and really we've been seeing the game industry backpedaling from things like that. At one time Bethesda was one of the edgier game developers.

To be honest the thing that irritates me is the indestructability of the kids, rather than any paticular desire to exterminate kids on general. Now granted, Bethesda making every kid int he game an annoying twerp doesn't help matters either. The kids in Skyrim aren't as annoying as the ones in say "Fallout 3" who to me struck me as being fair game in that setting much like the child soldiers in third world countries. When some kid points a gun at me and calls me "mungo" even as a relatively nice person in that setting, my first instinct is not to want to be his personal gofer just because he's a kid.

At any rate, the childkilling mod is not something I'll be running out to install. I'm actually hoping for a streamlined interface mod, perhaps something that makes it a little easier/more straightforward to use differant abillities than the current favorites to hotkey, and then activating based on one of the mouse buttons and a hotkey to determine what hand it goes in.

Honestly I'd really like to have more of my spells/abillities more readily availible at any given time.

The ghost kid is in Morthal

I got this mod today as it happens, took a perch high up on a southern Whiterun watchtower and watched my Daedric arrows rend the little snotbags. Theraputic indeed. I probably wouldn't have bothered had they not been so smarmy and blatantly voiced by the same kid who did FO3.

 

[lacktheknack]

And they especially need to be killable when those children make a little town called Little Lamplight and then proceed to make you their ***** because they know for a fact you can't hurt them.

Your fault for not using the "Child At Heart" perk. BOOM, Little Lamplight becomes the most awesome, helpful and spectacular town in the entire game. (Except Princess. She's still a little twat.)

OT: "Fixing"

"Broken"

-_-

I love modders, but I simultaneously despise them to the core.

 

[Easton Dark]

If anything, it makes tag more believable.

Maybe if the kids weren't such jerks people wouldn't make these as quickly :/

 

[Scizophrenic Llama]

I didn't care about the kids not being able to take damage, until one of the little bastards sent out a hit squad on me because I accidentally picked up a wedge of cheese instead of moved it when I was messing around.

 

[teqrevisited]

If Bethesda were to add it themselves the media would go insane. Modders adding it is perfect. God knows I hammered the brains out of that kid in New Vegas that kept shouting about Mick & Ralph's.

 

[Flames66]

Its against the law in the uk and the usa too, to allow the player to personaly kill a child themselves, sure with fallout 1 they patched it to remove children to abide by the law, and any game that does allow you to kill children is probabley too obscure for your average joe to ever hear about.
it aint bethesda its the law

Anyone know why it is illegal?

 

[SpaceBat]

"It's sad that modders are forced to fix a game that's being released as broken,"

It's sad that some people lack common sense.

Anyway, I suppose I can see why some people would want the child killing mod, seeing as some of them are quite annoying and I don't see the harm in it. Giving players the opportunity to mass murder innocent men, women and animals, but then whining that mods give the opportunity to add kids to that list is ridiculous. Also, I find the "You shouldn't want to kill kids" argument hilarious, seeing as it implies that wanting to kill everything else in cold blood is perfectly normal and acceptable.

Not going to download it, seeing as it's against the law here. Besides, I don't really have the urge to kill them. Sure they're annoying, but they're kids. I'll just ignore them and be on my way.

Anyone know why it is illegal?

Because it's considered immoral, I suppose.

-Snip-

Then don't watch those movies and don't play the games or just don't download the mod. To the part about joining the "Bandwagon" well as someone who plays a lot of RPGs i would really enjoy it to suddenly become an outlaw for accidental death of a kid from a misplaced fireball. Its happened to me in D&D why shouldn't it happen to me in a video game that is single player no one else has to be shocked by the death of that child except me and whoever may be in the room.

Yes you shouldnt want to kill children i agree. Your equating what someone does in a video game to real life psychotic issue wich doesnt work cuz if things worked that way ive commited more crimes then i can count.

It's not illegal in the U.S.A, guys. Only child porn and certain rare cases of obscenity can be banned from sale in the U.S. And age restrictions can only be required by law for pornographic material as well.
